I was hoping to read a story this week that I could rewrite for my storybook. This is certainly not a love story but I might be able to play around with the idea of switching things up to fit in with Parvati's Counseling Service.
Baby sister turns demon at night and no one knows its her. Her brother finds out and tries to warn everyone but no one believes him. He runs off, gets married in a different town. Returns to hometown and everyone is gone. Except for his demon sister in the form of a woman. He escapes but she finds him hiding in a tree. His wife in the other town lets his lion and bear go and the animals find the man and save him from the demon.
Maybe elaborate more on the cannibal sister. Does she know she turns into a demon? Does she do it on purpose or does it take over her against her will?
