Author's Note:

Welcome! ^^

This book may to triggering to some, especially in the first few chapters. I will always leave a warning at the start of every chapter before anything is mentioned, including NSFW content!

Some triggers may include forced prostitution, gore, and swearing because, Sanemi.

It will not be excessively detailed as I do NOT intend to romanticize violence in any way shape or form.

This should be obvious through my writing but I feel I should make it clear and this is my boundary for this book, I do not want anyone to comment positively on something that obviously should not be looked up to.

Regardless of the occasional dark subject material, I do like happy endings so look forward to that! ^^

Also, this book will contain minor spoilers for characters backstories but the story will be completely different from the canon. It is an alternative universe and some of the rules of the universe may have been changed slightly.

Particularly, I made up the Lower Moon Six character in this story as I consider it as one demon that existed before the main timeline of Tanjiro and Nezuko, so don't take it seriously.

Y/N will also have minor descriptions to help me visualize, but feel free to change anything as you wish!

I hope everyone enjoys this book and thank you for being here!

(This first chapter will contain all the previously mentioned triggers)

The papers are flown around my clinic sporadically. I just can't make sense of what is happening. Everyone is looking to me as the village physician to provide an answer for why their husbands, brothers, sons, and fathers are going missing. There are rumors of some kind of illness that forces them out of their homes to never return.

I read late into the night, only the sound of the flickering candle and the chill of the breeze filling my senses as I studied any history book I could get my hands on, desperate to find out why this is happening. I sigh, unable to find anything again when I hear my door suddenly slam open, causing me to jolt awake as a surge of energy flows through my veins.

I immediately stand up and make my way over, it isn't uncommon for villagers to seek me in times of emergency as I move quickly to assess the situation. I spot a middle-aged man, gasping for air as he falls to my floor and I run over, my eyes scanning him for the cause of his distress. There is no bleeding or obvious cause as I narrow my eyes confused.

"Please! You got to help! There's a demon in me!" He pleads. My eyes appear kind but my mind scoffs at such a ridiculous statement. He is likely suffering from something psychotic as he grips onto me, staring at me wildly as if he is in pain and I see blood and red particles start to fill the air as his body is disappearing before me.

My eyes go wide in confusion as the man's panic is replaced by a calm smirk. He blinks and his eyes immediately change to a deep red with the words "Lower Moon Six" appearing in his eyes. There is something menacing and terrifying about this figure as it catches me off guard. I try to back away but it grabs my uniform and pulls me close to it.

"About time one of these idiots brought me to a pretty girl before I consume them entirely," The voice was different from the man just a moment ago. The new darkly feminine voice erupting from his mouth is laced with malice as he suddenly kisses me and I feel my body is unable to respond to my will.

I desperately try to fight off whatever is happening to me to no avail. The man that laid before me has now vanished completely. My body looks the same but I can't move it, I can't speak, I realize this creature, this demon has taken over my body entirely.
