Book 1 of the Brides of Darkness Series
For hundreds of years, Calaren Town had been offering virgin maidens to fulfill their part on the treaty they made with the Court of Shadows to keep their small town under their protection. To be chosen meant death to the townsfolk, as there was no turning back to becoming a human again.
Upon realizing that her younger sister was chosen as one of the maidens to be sacrificed by their impoverished town to the thirteen demon lords who once ruled their land, Iris Scarborough volunteered to take her place instead to save her.
There was nothing exceptional about Iris, except for the secret she was keeping from everyone. However, even before she was taken away, Iris had already caught the eye of one of the demon lords.
Rumors say that Lord Kieran Fleurnoir was the personification of death. His mere presence was enough to suck the life essence out of those around him. He was also known to be one of the strongest demons of all time, who possesses extremely dangerous and powerful magic.
Taken to Asnar, a place filled with magical beings and monsters, Iris found herself enthralled and captivated not only by the place and its residents, but also by the cold and enigmatic demon lord, Lord Kieran.
Once there, Iris realized that Asnar and Lord Kieran himself were different from what humans thought them to be.
Loosely based on the tales of ‘Hades and Persephone’ and ‘Beauty and the Beast’.

Extremely well written. The concept of the story paired with the writing style is unique enough to grab your attention right away. Characters are smart and haven't acted stupid for the purpose of plot. The worldbuilding is absolutely amazing as well. The author is good at showing rather than telling and writing characters with believable strengths and flaws. I really love this story. Thank you, author, for writing it.
This novel is highly recommended! I would usually get the feel on a novel on its first chapter, and I wasn’t disappointed when I continued reading it. The storyline is fresh and original, and the characters relatable. No cringy dialogue, and so far the flow of the story is unpredictable, which makes it more interesting. This now is one of my favorite novels here in Webnovel. 😊👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️

This book is so well written and addictive that I am almost afraid to read further and reach the end...I know this book is on hold because of health issues of this awesome author but I am still hoping that the author is getting well soon and able to write again. So please get well soon 🙏💞💞
The story is developing very well. The world background looks huge and has lots of potential. It feels like adventure with romance. Initially it feel like Hunger games starting but it was quickly proven wrong. looking forward to reading further chapters.

First review… Seems like a pretty interesting story thus far (chap 10), will update a new review once I’ve dived in more. Worth the read, bit of over explanation but still better than some authors who’d blabber anything n everything.
