behind the mask
Jane Stewart is not your average teenager. She’s always felt like an outsider, never quite fitting in with her peers. But when strange events start happening around her, she has to choose: staying in her comfort zone or connecting with others like herself. With her newfound powers and abilities, Jane finds herself drawn into a world of mystery and darkness, with no choice than to navigate the dangers of the unknown.
The new community into which she is flung fulfils needs she has never fully recognized – but it requires abandoning almost everything, and everyone, she’s loved. Jane is forced to acknowledge appetites she had once condemned, and welcome a darkness that had once frightened her.

Dark Fantasy Novel
temple of hungers
Nitya Sumidaya has spent her entire life searching for the place where she finally belongs. When a chance to train at the prestigious Blue Lotus Dance Academy promises everything she has ever longed for, she believes she has found the path to greatness. Instead, it leaves her questioning everything she thought she knew about talent, purpose, and herself.
Her search leads her to the Firekeepers — a secretive order of storytellers who gather on the fringes of society, preserving forgotten histories and awakening strange visions that blur the boundary between memory and myth. Drawn into their world, Nitya embarks on a journey through ancient temples and cemeteries, mountains and lakes, and stories that defy the tales she grew up with.
But every path into the unknown demands a price. As betrayal, loss, and long-buried truths force her to confront the deepest hungers of her own heart, Nitya discovers that the greatest journey is not across mountains, but within. And beneath the fires of an erupting volcano, where old stories are reborn, she must decide whether she will continue denying the fragmented parts of herself — or become whole at last.
