🏆 BEST HOOK AWARD - THE CHOSEN DARKLING 2023 🏆

The Woods must be appeased in order to stop the darkness from spreading into the kingdom.

Paris Lerring, a farm girl from the countryside, is chosen as the next sacrifice. Just when it seems like her life is ending, she discovers that all the other sacrifices before her survived. And they are hungry for payback. The problem? They have to brave the Woods and kill the demons inside it.

Armed with a flimsy knife, an untethered impatience, and a flawed grasp of her new world, Paris is shoved into a system where survival is the only rule to follow and revenge is the only goal to achieve.

She has to stay on this road long enough to see it through before an unexpected loss leads her to a darker path, one she may not escape from alive.

From the author of the award-winning novella, 𝘒𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘦, and the high fantasy series, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘍𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘢, comes a story of broken promises, murky bonds, and the price of embracing the darkness in a world where the monsters do not rely on dark nights and starless skies to unsheathe their claws.

This book contains Tanglish dialogues but english subtitles will be given for those sentences. So, my other readers and general readers can also read. ~ * ~ Prologue Sivaangi gasped softly, her eyes widened in appreciation as she looked at the mannequin draped in an elegant piece of clothing. This has got to be one of the finest dresses she has come across in recent times! And to think she found this in a town! She frowned when she saw someone stepping in from behind the mannequin, her eyes taking in the male footwear and then eying up. To say she was bewitched would be an understatement as her eyes looked up to meet the man dressed in a dark blue lungi and an orange shirt; a measuring tape wounded around his neck, his trimmed-beard, a sharp handsome face and his eyes, oh his warm brown eyes! He was tall and fit, she noted, and he looked dashing despite his humble clothing. His forehead was adorned with a frown but Sivaangi couldn't care much for she was lost in the man in front of her, too distracted to make sense of the situation. "Yaaru neenga? Inga yenna panringa?" His voice was warm, sending shivers down her spine as Sivaangi met with his brown orbs. (Who are you? What are you doing here?) "A-aad-aadhu va-" Sivaangi stammered trying to get a grip of herself. (Th-tha-that-) God! She was embarrassed! And he is looking right at her, expecting an answer. Before Sivaangi could open her mouth and ridicule herself, they heard a woman calling him from outside, "Ashwin-nu! Irukiya pa?" (Are you there?) His eyes flickered outside before looking right back at her as he yelled, "Idho, varen Maa"(Coming) Giving her a pointed look, he stepped outside while she stood rooted, her eyes following him as her lips tasted his name, "Ashwin" ~ * ~ If the prologue intrigued you then please do check out the book. Thank you. Disclaimer: This book is a piece of fiction based on the author's imagination & nothing to do with the real life of characters mentioned.
