Devour – KT Maddan

I manage to ask, though my voice cracks. “Why me?” It tilts its head, like an animal hearing something peculiar. “Because you called to me,” it says simply. “Your loneliness, your hunger… They reached me. And now… Now we play.” I smell something putrid. I squeeze my eyes shut, willing myself to wake up, to shake off whatever nightmare this is. But when I ball my fists up, my fingers dig little crescents into my palm. And it hurts. I feel pain. Shit. Shit. My eyes widen in horror as I come to the realization that this truly isn’t a fucking dream.

White flurries brush past my eyes and land in my hair that billows in front of me. I tilt my gaze up from my feet to catch its sly look. Or at least, that’s the only thing I can describe as its eye sockets are black. “You aren’t real.” I take a step back, but in an instant it closes the distance between us again. Its clawed nails grip my arms, and I gasp as the cold surges through me. My knees buckle, but it doesn’t let me fall.

Instead, it pulls me closer, its skeletal chest pressing against me, the ridges digging into my skin. “There’s no need to be afraid anymore, Little Frost. I am here.” I shake my head, pushing against its chest, praying that a bone inside of it snaps. “I don’t want this,” I cry out.

It laughs again. The hand not resting on my hip slowly creeps up my neck. “Every lonely thought, every desperate wish. I felt them. I felt you. And now, you’ll feel me.” My breath hitches as its hand closes around my throat, putting pressure on the sides as it presses me against the wall of the cabin.

Emery North, a reclusive author plagued by insomnia and creative burnout, retreats to an isolated cabin in the frozen wilderness, seeking solace and inspiration. Soon she finds herself confronting the darkness within and deciding whether to resist, or succumb to, the pull of the creature that calls her “Little Frost.” OceanofPDF.com Playlist “Bury a Friend” – Billie Eilish “Dark Paradise” – Lana Del Ray “Everybody Wants to Rule the World,”(Cover) – Lorde “How” – Florence + The Machine OceanofPDF.com Content Warning This book contains mature themes that may be distressing to some readers.

Even if it means following a 7 foot dear skull creature straight into a blizzard. Are we really this desperate for a man to cherish us? OceanofPDF.com Author’s Note Dear Reader, Devour is an erotic horror novella that weaves sensuality with terror.

It explores the unsettling depths of human vulnerability. This story draws inspiration from myths of primal, predatory beings that lurk in the wilderness—creatures that whisper in the wind and stalk those who dare to wander too far. While folklore has long spoken of entities that embody hunger and the loss of humanity, this is not a retelling of any traditional legend. Instead, it is a wholly fictional creation, shaped to fit a narrative that blends horror and erotica in ways that unsettle and seduce.

Out of respect for Indigenous cultures and their sacred stories, I have deliberately avoided direct adaptation of any specific beliefs or beings. This novella exists in a world of its own—a distorted reflection of the fears that come with isolation, obsession, and the temptation to surrender to something darker than oneself. Be warned: Devour is a tale of obsession, hunger, and the fragility of humanity when confronted by the unknown. As always, I do not guarantee a HEA, but it is a short, little novella that will have you questioning things near the end.

For those drawn to the uncanny, the grotesque, and the seductive, this book is for you. But tread carefully. There’s no guarantee of escape. Don’t get hunted. OceanofPDF.com T Prologue hey have called it many things over the centuries.
