Welcome to Chandrakund. You’ll never leave in silence. When journalist Julie Joseph arrives in the abandoned mining town of Chandrakund, she’s searching for answers. Decades ago, the entire population vanished, leaving only eerie remnants of their lives behind. Old cassette tapes, found in the crumbling town hall, hold the final confessions of the residents—and the truth about the entity that doomed them. They call it The Sound, a force awakened deep within the mines, a predator that hunts not with teeth but with whispers. It knows your secrets, your guilt, and your grief, and it won’t stop until it consumes you. As Julie uncovers the town’s chilling history, her own painful past resurfaces. The Sound isn’t just manipulating the shadows of Grey Hollow—it’s digging into her mind, twisting her memories, and reviving the guilt she’s tried to bury for years. Time is running out. Trapped between the echoes of Chandrakund’s past and the whispers of her own trauma, Julie must face a horrifying truth: silence isn’t just an absence—it’s alive. In The Silent Town, the line between the living and the lost is blurred, and every sound could be your last. Perfect for fans of Stephen King and Shirley Jackson, this supernatural thriller will leave you questioning every creak, whisper, and silence in the dark.

It wasn't really a popular smut series, just one of the dregs left alone to rot for ages in the far reaches of the internet. A wish-fulfillment story where the protagonist gets NTR'd into oblivion in the beginning, before awakening his dormant werewolf bloodline in sheer rage and utterly demolishing all antagonists, while collecting beauties at every step of the way – A typical smutty revenge story. But instead of the usual magical fantasy, this story's premise was based on sci-fi – taking place in an alternate version of Earth where aliens were real, urban legends like werewolves weren't mere figments of imagination, and the government was hiding a f*cking EXTRATERRESTRIAL STARSHIP inside an underground lab in Area-69...!! "...F*ck." ...All I did was send a small donation to this unpopular novel's Author, saying that he shouldn't give up writing. And after falling asleep in my room last night, I strangely found myself transmigrated inside the novel world! Well, good news was – the main character was a gigachad who could operate the hidden Starship thanks to his awakened werewolf bloodline, and fight back when the enemies of the Starship's creators invaded Earth and started raining down plasma beams from space! ...And the bad news – the man I possessed was a third-rate gangster who was supposed to cuck the main character, indirectly assisting in his bloodline awakening. "....f*ck my life..." Now, if I don't cuck him, humanity in this world would go extinct from an overwhelming alien invasion. And if I DO cuck him, I would die to the enraged MC's rampage! "...Ah, sh*t. If I'm going to die anyway, let me have some fun in my remaining few days. Hmm, but I should book a flight to Africa first..." *Ta-ting!* [Bloodline awakening condition has been unlocked!] "...Huh? Now what the hell is this?" ----------------------- WARNING: This novel will have occasional corn (not the vegetable-kind), so if you haven't yet delved into the defiled swamp of degeneracy (meaning if you're not an adult), I recommend that you stay away from this novel. ----------------------- Join the Discord Server: https://discord.gg/EAx7ta5rpp
