Jaded Box by Cassandra Knightshade
$2.99
After an archaeological excavation uncovers a sealed jade box, Allison Monroe’s life begins to unravel. What first appears to be a rare historical discovery quickly becomes something far more sinister when she hears her name whispered from within it—a voice no one else can hear.
As the days pass, Allison grows increasingly isolated, dismissed by her family and the university that once respected her work. The box’s presence lingers no matter where it is kept, bleeding into her dreams, her home, and her mind. Only her husband, Jack, remains by her side, determined to help her as her grip on reality begins to fracture.
When Allison learns the truth behind the artifact—that it was created to imprison a powerful and malevolent force, one that can only be released by the blood of a descendant—she realizes the connection is not a coincidence. The box did not find her by chance. It chose her.
As its influence tightens, the line between control and surrender begins to blur. Faced with the unbearable weight of its pull, Allison must decide whether to resist the darkness consuming her—or give in to it and face the consequences of what lies within.
