In ancient Celtic Ireland, Ciara Ní Ceallaigh has always been an outcast. The villagers whisper that she's cursed, a mistake born under a blood moon. Her family's cruelty only deepens her isolation. Beaten, abandoned, and shunned, Ciara learns to hide her pain in the silence of the woods. But the forest has secrets. There, amid ancient stones and forgotten magic, Ciara finds the one thing the world has never given her-power. It calls to her in the night, an invitation she can't refuse. Desperate for control over her life, she grasps it with both hands, only to discover that the magic she seeks comes at a terrible cost. With her newfound strength comes a darker force, one that whispers in her mind, bends her will, and threatens to consume her. The world she once knew is slipping away, and there's no turning back. Ciara must choose: succumb to the darkness or embrace the witch she was always meant to be.

She's got the whole package! She cleans, she cooks and she hushes when demanded too. Dolores, the one and only perfect housewife who lives an unrealistic dream which she hopes to wake up from! She, like many others, deserves to live a dream. But what would you do if, instead of a dream, you lived a nightmare?
