the conjugal dictatorship

⚠️ Warning ⚠️ Do Not Try To Read This If You Are Afraid Of Ghosts This Novel Contains A Badass MC For twenty-year-old Liam, reality has always been a fragile concept. Diagnosed with severe dissociative schizophrenia, he has spent years tormented by a singular, terrifying delusion: the existence of the "Hollow Earth"—a mirror dimension layered directly atop our own, inhabited by malevolent entities that wear human skin. After a catastrophic breakdown leaves Liam in a catatonic state, bedridden and withering away in his room for weeks, the darkness finally swallows him whole. But when he opens his eyes, he hasn’t woken up in a hospital. The room is the same, yet the geometry is wrong. The shadows stretch too far. The air tastes of copper and rot. He is in the Hollow Earth. Standing at the foot of his bed is a vision of haunting beauty: a woman with cascading white hair and skin like polished porcelain, dressed in an intricate, Victorian-era nightgown. She doesn’t attack. She doesn't scream. Instead, she strokes his cheek with an ice-cold hand and whispers, "Welcome home, Husband." Now, Liam must navigate a nightmare where the laws of physics are broken and shadows have teeth. But his greatest danger isn’t the monsters roaming the gray streets outside—it is his "bride." Beneath her captivating face and doting affection lies a possessive, ancient hunger. Liam must discover if he has truly slipped into another dimension or if his mind has finally shattered completely—before the woman in white consumes what’s left of his soul.
