In the forgotten wetlands of Congo, a river once known for its beauty has turned into a graveyard of secrets. When Asha's young son mysteriously vanishes near the water, she becomes the latest to confront the whispered legend of "the river that eats the living."
But the truth is far worse than folklore.
Beneath the quiet surface lies a labyrinth of drowned spirits - restless, vicious, and hungry for the living. As Asha searches for answers, the river begins to recognize her... and call her by name.
Bodies return twisted. Voices rise from the mist. And the deeper Asha goes, the more she realizes that the river is not claiming victims -
it's building an army.
Season 1 is a slow-burning, cinematic horror mystery filled with creeping dread, ancient curses, and a mother who refuses to surrender to the darkness swallowing her world.

He will not explain why he saved her. He will not tell her what he's running from. And she cannot ask, because the river took her voice as payment for the life it was denied. Now she is cursed. Voiceless. Hunted by something older than the dust they run on. And the only person standing between her and the water's teeth is a man whose hands know how to save... and how to destroy. ♦ 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗼-𝗳𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗸𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲❟ 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰❟ 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁 ♦ 𝗗𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗢𝗩 - 𝗮 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗴𝗶𝗿𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗵𝗮𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿 ♦ 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗕𝗼𝗻𝗲❟ 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝘀𝗵❟ 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗻 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝘀𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝘜𝘱𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘚𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘺 · 𝘛𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘥𝘢𝘺 · 𝘛𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘥𝘢𝘺 ⚠️ CONTENT WARNING: violence, sexual content, grief, spiritual horror, themes of sacrifice.

Prion: Origins
In a shattered world ravaged by a virus worse than death itself, River thought she'd escaped her past-until the outbreak from Russia unleashes horrors that challenge everything she thought she knew about survival. Escaping the cult that raised her, River is thrust into a new fight, where the infected aren't just mindless undead, but something far more dangerous. Teaming up with Kat, Frieda, and a group of battle-hardened survivors, River faces endless dangers: both monstrous creatures and the people willing to sacrifice anything to control the chaos. As River grapples with her haunting past and the brutal present, she's forced to confront the monsters within-both in herself and the world around her. But amid the chaos, she finds an unexpected source of strength and love in Malik, a friend who helps her rediscover trust and a reason to fight while learning to love. In a place where alliances are fragile and survival is a daily struggle, River must decide if humanity is worth saving or if she's become something else entirely. A harrowing story of survival, loyalty, love, and the fight for redemption in a world where every choice could be the last.Concluida

Blood

A stranger in the glass. Whispers she can't explain. Dreams dripping in crimson. Drawn into a shadowed world where nothing is as it seems, she's pulled from routine into a maze of haunted whispers, forbidden attraction, and ancient rituals she doesn't understand.

Now, as her hunger grows and her heart tangles with the very creature who may destroy her, she'll face the ultimate question: fight the darkness that claims her... or surrender to the blood calling her home. Happy reading.....🥰🥰🥰Concluida
Winding Dawn (Dusk Series - Book 9)
Eliza Lovell has lived a dangerous life, inducted into the hunter organization as a child and hunting vampires since she could walk. Though she wouldn't say she was unhappy. Nothing was more satisfying than sinking her spell-forged blades into the monsters that stalked and terrorized human kind. What she did was a service. It gave her purpose to get up in the morning and sound sleep at night. That was until she met her match with a deceptively alluring vampire named Ezra, and the world around her twists in new and dangerous ways. Vampire corpses begin to surface around town, drained of their blood, and the fingers are pointed at the hunter organization. Eliza had nothing to do with such grotesque displays of depravity, and neither did the hunters, but she doesn't like the sins of others painted on her back. To end the violence and to clear her name, she embarks on a journey to root out the evil poisoning her city. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Alec de Fluer is new to his role as a leader of the Fleurs, but peacekeeping has been in his blood since he was a child. When others fought, he sought to ease their quarrels and help them find peace, as he did now in the tumultuous society that was rebuilding before him. Someone is draining vampires of their blood and hanging them up for display, but there is more to it than just hate. Remnants of Copse magic linger at the dump sites, powerful yet foreign. Though Alec is no longer a Copse, it falls on him to clear his former family's name, alongside his mate Idus and some more unconventional allies.
THE RECKONING: RISE OF THE FORGOTTEN
When archaeologist Anna Caldwell returns to the coastal town of Blackwater Cove following her grandfather Richard's mysterious death, she uncovers dark secrets buried for generations. A cryptic voicemail, strange markings throughout town, and a hidden journal lead her to investigate an abandoned well where something ancient was imprisoned thirty years ago. Alongside Deputy Mark Morton, Anna discovers the terrible truth: beneath Blackwater lurks an ancient entity that has demanded sacrifice for centuries. Every thirty years, three people disappear-a covenant established by the town's founder, Captain Jeremiah Blackwater, to ensure the town's prosperity. But in 1991, Anna's grandfather and two others attempted to break this cycle by binding the entity, using Anna's mother as an unwilling sacrifice. Now the binding is failing. Townspeople sleepwalk toward the harbor. Water turns blood-red. Strange symbols appear on walls. And Anna experiences disturbing changes as blue-green light pulses beneath her skin-the entity is transforming her, just as it once tried to transform her mother. The truth is more terrifying than Anna imagined. All three founding families-Caldwell, Morton, and Reeves-share a bloodline connected to the entity itself. For generations, it has been guiding their genetics toward creating a perfect vessel: Anna. As a massive storm cuts Blackwater off from outside help, Anna faces three choices: complete the original binding ritual with the blood of all three families, provide the sacrifices the entity demands, or attempt a third option-a ritual of transformation where she becomes a bridge between worlds. In a race against time, Anna must confront her partially-transformed mother on a mysterious island and complete what was interrupted thirty years ago. Her decision will determine not just Blackwater's fate but potentially humanity's relationship with ancient intelligences that have existed in Earth's oceans since before mankind walked upright.Concluida

Blood & Honey #1
~A Wattys and Fiction Award winner* A lion does not need an invitation from a lamb. That is not the way of the predator. Predators take what they want, when they want it, however they please. And this belief that I am, that evil is, enslaved by the dark night is humorous to say the least. Why would any creator make their pupil inept of withstanding the lighted world when this planet is covered in daylight for half of its life span? No, our Maker did not instill such restrictions for, up here on these earthly lands, we are the gods of prey. ~ Tristan There is only one rule vampires must follow--Bite Hard. It is forbidden for humans to know vampires exist so you can imagine Tristan Darkos's surprise when he finds one that knows what he is. He can tell by the tremble of her body, the thump-thump of her pulse, and her dilated pupils. He's going to have to finish what some other vampire started. The problem is when Tristan gets close to this human his blood turns to fire and the thirst that burns in his throat that should spell her doom twists until he's consumed by another need--one that is evocative, primitive, and...wrong. If Tristan doesn't figure out the mystery that is Kinley Shea Rylan, it is certain whatever dark force her honey blood is summoning forth will be the end of him and, possibly, the end of the world as we know it. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Author note: - This is an original work with my take on Vampires.

Others call her the Huntress. However, what she truly is-is a shadow that lures men in with the promise of pleasure, only to make them suffer before carving them into nothing. He is obsessed with the case. Something oddly familiar yet the murders are brutal, methodical, and persona on a lever he doesn't understand. Each body found in pieces, each victim nothing more than discarded remains.
