The Womb of Shadows

On the private island of Ambrosia, impoverished women are lured into surrogacy contracts by the billionaire Aldric family. They soon discover their wombs are being used not for human life, but as vessels in an ancient ritual to resurrect a dormant entity beneath the sea. Trapped in a jurisdictional void where the family's judicial allies ensure total legal immunity, the surrogates must carve a path of bloody rebellion. Each survivor escapes with a soul torn open—carrying an unhealable wound where hope and humanity once lived.
