Book I: The Corruption
In Pittsburg, Kansas, devotion becomes corruption, and the people closest to you begin to change into something unrecognizable.
I Would Die For You: Book I, The Corruption is a 550-page psychological horror novel by Sulemana Abudu. Set in Pittsburg, Kansas, the story follows a family pulled into the gravity of an old, unnatural force after a strange book enters their lives. What begins as curiosity turns intimate, devotional, and rotten.
Harold Callahan does not find the book so much as disturb it. Once it enters his home, ordinary life begins to warp around it: faith curdles into obsession, affection becomes possession, and the people closest to him start changing in ways no one can explain without sounding insane.
Set in Pittsburg, Kansas, I Would Die For You: Book I, The Corruption is a slow-burn record of domestic fear, supernatural infection, and the private bargains people make before they admit something has already claimed them.
Harold snorted and picked up the book. The moment his fingers touched the cover, he felt an odd sensation... not quite a vibration, but a sort of recognition, as if the book had been waiting for him specifically.
The cover material was neither leather nor cloth but something in between, with a texture that felt almost warm to the touch, like skin that had just been vacated by its owner.
There was no title on the spine or cover, only a symbol that might have been a stylized flame or perhaps a screaming face, depending on how the light hit it. Harold tilted the book, watching the symbol shift from one interpretation to the other, both images equally disturbing, equally compelling.
The pages were yellowed but not brittle, and they had a faint, not unpleasant smell of sulfur and old paper, like a library that had once caught fire but been saved before the flames could consume it completely.
