Blood Rite
Blackwood Estate was never just a house-it was a trap.
When Elena Cross returns, she thinks the horrors of her family's past can be buried, but the estate has other plans. Its walls pulse with whispers, its mirrors twist reflections into something monstrous, and every step she takes leads her deeper into a carnival of shadows.
At the center of it all waits Carnival Nocturna, a grotesque spectacle of tormented performers and ancient rituals, feeding on blood, fear, and the sins of her bloodline. To survive, Elena must uncover the truth about her family's pact with Lucien Devereaux-a charismatic yet malevolent figure whose grip on Black Hollow has never truly died.
But the deeper she searches, the more Elena realizes escape isn't freedom. The carnival doesn't want her to run. It wants her to play.
A gothic descent into terror, Blood Rite is a story of curses, grotesque performances, and a young woman who must face the horrors written in her blood before they consume her completely.
