Goddess Mandap
In a forgotten village hidden in the forests of India, the goddess is still worshipped the old way - with blood, silence, and brides.
When Priya, a fiery 22-year-old from another village, is forced into an arranged marriage, she expects the worst - but not this. Her new husband is a person, bound to an ancient temple that reeks of sacrifice and secrets. The villagers treat him like a god. He treats her like a ritual.
Each night, she is told to enter the Mandapam - the shadowed stone chamber where the goddess sleeps and husbands take their wives. But the lines between faith and domination, desire and devotion, soon blur.
The darker Priya's feelings grow, the closer she gets to the truth about her husband... and the reason she was brought here.
