Idea for a a short story collection

I've maybe written about this in the past maybe, but if I've not here it goes. I want to write a collection of short stories, called Arranged (to be) Married, and it'll be about love, relationships, and marriage in Nepali groups and traditions. The first story will be called Buried Treasure, it'll be about a lady who turns out to be a kichkandi who seduces a guy who knows she's a supernatural power who might be more interested in his blood than him, but he doesn't mind, he's willing to give her anything she wants, and be a committed partner, even if to a blood-thirsty kichkandi. There'll be stories about cheating, about unresolved love, undeserved love, confusing love, unbelievable love, all kinds of interesting dynamics between individuals. Because love is about desire, and how it's shaped and how it's met. A study of relationships is a study of a culture's deepest insecurities and strengths.
