crown cult death hell horror kidnapped monster murder physiological power qween romance torture

Alice was never a heroine. Proud, self-centered, and dismissive of those around her, she navigated life with a cold confidence-until the day she was kidnapped by a deranged cult. For ten harrowing chapters, Alice endures torment, her mind and body pushed to the brink of breaking. Just when she thinks her suffering has reached its peak, the cult performs a gruesome ritual, killing her in the process. But death is not an escape for Alice; it is only the beginning.

Alice awakens in a new world-a realm shrouded in eternal darkness where monstrous beings roam and humanity is a forgotten myth. Blind and terrified, she stumbles through this nightmare, clinging to the hope of survival. Her only companion is Barromio, a creature as terrifying as the world itself, yet oddly protective of her.

Desperate to regain her sight, Alice accepts Barromio's promise of a cure. When he finally fulfills it, the reality of her situation crashes down upon her. Barromio, with his red eyes, skeletal frame, and hooved feet, is the epitome of the horrors that populate this world. Despite his insistence on his good intentions, Alice's trust is shattered.

As they journey through the twisted streets of a city that defies logic, Alice pretends to trust Barromio, all the while plotting her escape and survival. But in a world where appearances deceive and monsters hide behind friendly faces, can Alice find a way to escape her own darkness?

The Darkness Within is a gripping tale of survival, trust, and the thin line between friend and foe. As Alice navigates the terrors of a nightmarish realm, she must confront her own flaws and fears, and decide whether she can trust anyone-least of all herself.

Perfect for fans of dark fantasy and psychological thrillers, this novel will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.All Rights Reserved

Enslaved to Icarus (The Pariah Book 1) by shaziyakhanwrites

"The curse entailed that only the blood that sought yours, can free you of the curse, until then you shall be asleep." Icarus smirked at her words, he knew where this was going as she continued, "Because your blood is-" "Poisonous and repulsive." She nodded. "So, it's unbelievable that she was the one whose blood sought yours, a human, but it did, or perhaps it was your blood that sought hers...," she mulled over it. "But it's wrong, against the natural-" she observed his gaze. Talking about some natural order of the universe was not something that would befit his ears, given that he was the very example of the abomination formed against the natural laws and order of the blood. ~~ No one knew who he was, or where he came from? But he did, and he conquered all the existing realms, hidden and not so hidden from the human world, and built his kingdom upon the ruins of his enemies. Yet, he remained a pariah. Always was. Always will be. He was Icarus. The Monster. The Legend. The Evil. The Pariah. ~~ Everyone knew her to be a scared little kitten. She looked like one too with her snowy white hair, cerulean blue eyes, and a questionable fate. ~~ What was supposed to be a ridiculous adventure, suggested by her equally ridiculous brave friend turned her life into a whirlwind of crazy and bloody, when she stumbled and accidentally awakened the sleeping, ravenous, and absolutely psychotic monster, Icarus. What made her the lucky woman to jostle him out of his centuries of sleep? As a thanks, she was rewarded with the title of being his most beloved SLAVE. Dive into their journey as we unravel their ribbons of fate, and immerse ourselves into their complicated relationship. ~~ This book is a dark fantasy romance novel and Icarus is an original fantasy character that I created. He is not a vampire or a werewolf but something entirely new and interesting.
