Fear
Psychological Horror and Slow-burn Dark Romance. 18+ --------------------------- It's been five years since that fateful Friday night. I remember it like it was yesterday. The night I was kidnapped. I was held against my will. Tortured. Starved. Broken apart, piece by piece. All in the name of "curing" me. He didn't just steal my freedom. He rewrote the rules of pain, of fear - and then, somehow, of love. If you'd told me I'd fall for the man who ruined my life, I would've laughed in your face. But reality doesn't always follow logic. He's given me this journal and I'm going to write my story. This is my truth. My confession. My war cry. Because what he did to me deserves to be known. --------------------------- THIS BOOK CONTAINS TRAUMATIC CONTENT!

One Last
Fifteen years after a reckless childhood ritual unleashed an ancient curse upon their remote village of Nilgiri, five friends-Nahid, Nishita, Mukta, Adil, and Keya-reunite at the urging of their once-fearless leader. Drawn back to the abandoned village nestled in Bangladesh's mist-shrouded hills, they confront the malevolent force they unknowingly awakened years ago at the cursed shrine of Bhuter Thaai-the "Spirit's Seat." As the group navigates the decaying, sentient house and the eerie silence of the forsaken land, they realize the curse never left. Shadows twist into unnatural forms, whispers echo from the earth itself, and the village's hunger grows. Bonds fracture under the weight of guilt and fear, and one by one, the friends succumb to a darkness that consumes both body and soul. Told through Mukta's harrowing perspective, One Last weaves a chilling tale of supernatural horror, where the land itself is alive with ancient wrath. Trapped between survival and sacrifice, the friends must confront not only the entity stalking them but the secrets they buried long ago. As the line between reality and nightmare blurs, the final question lingers: Can anyone escape the grip of Nilgiri, or will the mountain claim its last soul? Themes: Haunting pasts, cosmic horror, the price of curiosity, and the fragility of human resilience. Tone: Eerie, suspenseful, and claustrophobic, with an atmosphere steeped in dread.Complete
