The Blood Tithe

Dark, sacrificial, and haunted by the price of power — every drop of blood buys another day

He pays debts in blood so others don’t have to. Behind the darkness is a man who’d give everything for one more dawn.

Choose Your Own Romantasy Adventure

The Blood Tithe is an AI-powered choose-your-own-adventure romantasy story. You don’t just read — you play as the main character. Every choice you make shapes the plot, the alliances, and the romance. No two playthroughs are ever the same.

Your kingdom survives on a terrible bargain: each year the Blood Tithe must be paid to the ancient powers beneath the earth, and you’re the one chosen to pay it. But this year, something in the dark has changed — it’s no longer satisfied with the offering. You’ll descend into the old places, confront the price your ancestors promised, and decide whether to honour a blood pact that keeps millions alive or break it and face what comes crawling up.

In this story, you step into the role of the male lead. If you’d prefer to play as the woman, browse our female characters instead.
