Deep in the heart of an ancient woodland, something stirs-hungry, watchful, and patient. When Caleb returns to his childhood home, a remote cabin on the edge of the vast and mysterious forest, he finds himself drawn into a nightmare that has been waiting for him all along. The trees whisper, the shadows shift, and the past he tried to forget claws its way back.
What begins as a reluctant homecoming soon turns into a descent into terror as Caleb uncovers the dark history of the land-and the entity that has been feeding on those who wander too far into the woods. The deeper he digs, the more he realizes that the forest is alive, and it has been waiting for him.
As reality unravels and the line between man and monster blurs, Caleb must confront not only the horrors lurking in the trees but the darkness within himself. Because in this forest, the deeper you go, the less of you returns... and some never escape at all.
The Forest Devours is a chilling tale of isolation, madness, and the insatiable hunger of some

The Hollow Prince
COMPLETED. *NSFW* Auralie doesn't believe in fae stories-not the ones whispered by dying villagers, not the ones about cursed woods or monsters that eat your heart. But when girls begin to vanish and strange symbols bleed from the bark of the forest, she crosses the veil in search of answers. What she finds is him. Unmoving. Inhuman. Wearing a crown of antlers and eyes like cut emeralds, sharp with amusement. He speaks in riddles. Smiles like a threat. And calls her little moth, like a name he's been saving. The first time they meet, she draws his blood. The second, he offers her a bargain. The third, he consumes her. The Hollow Prince says worse things hunt her now-creatures that wear her face, sing her name, and slip into her dreams. He claims he's the only thing standing between her and the dark. But the deeper Auralie goes, the more twisted the forest becomes-and the harder it is to tell whether the prince is her captor, her shield, or the very thing she was warned to fear. There is a curse. A game. And a price that was never hers to pay.Complete

It wasn't supposed to be a rescue. It wasn't even supposed to be real. A drunken dare. A reckless chase. A twisted game. Harry and his friends entered the house with one thought-to take what wasn't theirs. But the moment they crossed the threshold, the game turned against them. The doors locked. The walls shifted. Their desires became chains, their laughter swallowed by silence. At first, they thought it was a man-a monster lurking in the dark, toying with them. But the deeper they went, the more the truth clawed at their sanity. The house was alive. And it wanted them to suffer. Time unraveled. Lust turned to regret. Hunger turned to madness. Their mistakes tightened like a noose, and soon, Harry found himself losing more than just his way. He was losing them. And the house was still watching. Because no one leaves until it is done with them. The House That WhispersComplete
