Offerings For The Old God: A Dark Folklore Erotica (Devoted Monsters #5)

The forest was old before there were names for gods.
And it remembers what is owed.

When a logging camp pushes into forbidden old growth in the Pacific Northwest, the trees begin to bleed—and the women begin to listen. What starts as disappearance becomes devotion, as an ancient god awakens to reclaim what was taken without asking.

Iris is a wife and mother, worn thin by work, grief, and the slow violence of survival. When the forest calls her by blood and hunger, she resists—at first. But some bargains are older than marriage, older than motherhood, older than language itself.

Offerings for the Old God is a dark folklore erotica about ritual, transformation, and the terrible freedom of belonging to something that will never let you go.

This is not a romance.
There is no rescue.
The forest always remembers.

Set at the edge of a dying logging town at the turn of the twentieth century, Offerings for the Old God unfolds like a found legend—one whispered to explain why certain forests are left alone.

When men cut too deep, the land answers.

The old god does not come as a lover or a savior. It does not bargain. It does not ask. It calls—and those who hear it feel the truth in their bodies long before they understand it with their minds. Desire becomes ritual. Sex becomes offering. Flesh becomes root and bark and leaf.

As women vanish into the trees, their husbands search, grieve, and rage. But the forest does not return what it claims. It transforms it.

For Iris, the call is slow and terrible and irresistible. She resists for her children. She resists for her humanity. But the god is patient. It knows time. It knows hunger. And it knows that devotion, once planted, will grow.

There is no happily-ever-after here.
There is only becoming.
