Desires of the Dark Forest

The Dark Forest has always whispered to her—a pull she can’t ignore. Becoming a Hunter should mean slaying the creatures hidden in its shadows, but when she steps inside, the truth feels far more dangerous. These monsters don’t run from her… they reach for her. And their touch feels less like a threat and more like a promise. Each step draws her deeper, not just into the Forest, but into a web of longing, secrets, and a hunger she can’t name. What if she wasn’t called here to kill at all? What if the Forest wants her for something far more intoxicating—and far more impossible to escape?
