The Bride Who Became Queen of the Forest

Chloe, a fallen noble girl, is forced into marriage with the Herman family, which holds a monopoly on magical crystals. On her wedding night, she is brutally stripped of her sight and hearing and abandoned into the perilous Devouring Forest. Surrounded by bloodthirsty vines and mutated beasts, she must survive the night and uncover the family's secrets to preserve her own soul. In her desperate struggle, she encounters the forest priest—who turns out to be her cold and distant husband, Lucas—who blocks every possible escape route. Relying on her expert knowledge of herbal alchemy, she navigates the deadly terrain and discovers that every bride before her has been sacrificed as a vessel to drain life force for the family.
