The Thorn and His Rose: An Immortalis Chapbook by ImmortalisHorror

A theatrical, visceral horror tale. Artistically presented, methodically planned, and cruelly realized. Lovers, serial killers, turning their macabre passion into an artform, but as their depravities grow, so too does their respective paranoias. As the slayings progress, a daring game of cat and mouse ensues, leading to a bloody and horrific climax. Psychological horror that creeps into the cinematic realms of the slasher, the zombie saga, and the vampiric. The tale is framed as a work of poetic art encompassing all of the horror subgenres. It is, at times, humorous and at times reeking of a sombre melancholy. Cultish in its guise, The Thorn and His Rose treads on the most daring and taboo elements of all vengeful tales.

Siren Song (The Fated #1) by UnboundWings

Iliana Katrakis couldn't care less about the will of the gods, and she's certain they feel the same way about her. After all, it's rare for the god-touched to live normal lives--and that's all she wants. Having spent the last three years aboard the merchant ship Airlea, Iliana couldn't be happier. Sure, her best friend Kain is the only one who knows she's a girl, but it's a good life. The work is simple, and her shipmates are the closest thing to a family she has. Fate, however, is not on her side. A storm tosses the Airlea wildly off course. Within the day, she's stranded, alone and injured, on a foggy island known only as Inna's Cove. She's given a choice: become one of the islands' goddess blessed sirens and rescue her best friend, or take her chance with the monster-infested woods. The choice seems obvious. That is, until the mercenaries arrive. Their captain wants a siren--and not even the threat of the goddess' wrath will change his mind. **Cover by Morana

Eighteen-year-old Seraphine Valen's life shatters after a blood-soaked tragedy leaves her the sole survivor. But survival comes with a price-she discovers she wields an unholy power: the ability to command death itself. Her touch can end lives, her will can summon destruction, and the darkness within her is a force she barely understands. Her newfound power makes her the target of the Banes-nightmarish creatures determined to enslave humanity and claim Seraphine as their weapon of ultimate annihilation. Pursued across a world falling to ruin, she is thrust into a deadly game she doesn't understand and cannot escape. When all hope seems lost, Seraphine is drawn into Death's Castle, a place where shadows whisper and the air hums with ancient magic. Within its labyrinthine halls, she encounters a trio of enigmatic allies: a diviner who peers beyond the veil of time, a war vampire with a thirst for both battle and blood, and a battle-hardened brute whose strength is matched only by his loyalty. Together, they unveil the harrowing truth of her ancestry-a lineage intertwined with darkness and light. Yet, as Seraphine grapples with her monstrous heritage, an even greater evil stirs in the void-a primordial darkness that seeks to devour all existence.
