cookie dough – The Reading Bud

Two siblings. One manor. One Entity. Who will survive?
When Leela Jamwal returns to her ancestral home tucked along the monsoon-drenched Konkan coast, she believes she’s coming back to grieve, to regroup, and to protect her younger brother. But the Manor—sprawling, decaying, and watchful—has been waiting far longer than that.
Unspoken tragedies haunt every corridor. Mirrors move. Walls hum. And Leela begins to dream of a girl no one remembers—except the house.
What begins as mourning quickly becomes unravelling as Leela uncovers the dark legacy of her bloodline: a lineage bound to an ancient force known only as the Widow. A force that demands obedience, sacrifice, and silence. And Leela is the next in line.
As time fractures and the Manor tightens its grip, she must confront a choice older than herself: her brother, her unborn child, or herself.
Because in this house, you don’t inherit the curse. You are the curse.
