In a world where the veil between the living and the dead grows thin, fate is woven not by chance, but strings of fate. Every generation, the City of the Dead demands a bride - one chosen by divine red threads, marked by bells in the wind, and led to a forgotten altar.
When twenty-year-old Melinoe is chosen by the crimson threads, she is torn from her quiet village and thrust into a ritual. As she is adorned in ceremonial red and led to the gates of the afterlife, she is haunted by ghost brides who came before her and guided by a shaman who once defied the gods.
To survive, she must unravel the divine investiture, awaken slumbering gods, and decide if love can ever bloom in a world built on sacrifice. As the bells tolls, spirits stir, and she must choose: fulfill the fate written for her-or break it, and become something unexpected.
The Sacrifice Bride is a dark fantasy of romance, rebellion, and resurrection-where every string pulled tightens the noose or opens a door to a forgotten heaven.
