Not all nightmares end when you wake up. Some just begin.
Lyra Eous has always felt a little…off. Haunted by dreams that choke her breath and shadowy figures who whisper her name, she's spent years hiding behind a mask of normalcy. But on her eighteenth birthday, the nightmare becomes real.
As her world begins to crack, Lyra is pulled into a surreal realm where nothing is stable and every choice has a price. Here, time warps. Truths twist. The people she trusts most may not be real. And something ancient, something powerful, is watching her: guiding her, hunting her, and calling her toward a fate she never asked for.
Now she must navigate a psychological maze of trauma, identity, and desire, where every answer brings her closer to an impossible truth…and every door could be her last.
Gripping, raw, and darkly addictive, Desire is a genre-bending plunge into psychological horror, supernatural suspense, and emotional survival. Perfect for fans of Ninth House, The Midnight Library, or Coraline grown up and unfiltered-this story doesn't just ask you to feel.
It dares you to stay.
