He looked at her, his gaze lingering for a moment longer than he intended. "Not as much as it did yesterday. Your touch helps," he said, a small smirk playing on his lips.

For a moment, the world outside the hospital room seemed to fade away. "That’s my job," she said softly, breaking the silence. "To make sure you leave here better than you came."

I wasn’t the second. I am the last. I am the end. This is the legend of the pawn who turned the strings of fate. The fable of the twenty-third curse. The legend of the puppeteer.

The vast differences in their worldviews and customs, coupled with James’s determination to return to his own world—an eventuality that might irrevocably separate them—act as chains on their blossoming love.

But my eyes are golden, a colour no one has ever seen before. And with that, my fate was sealed. Feared of my very existence and hated for my gender, I was locked away in my family's mansion for fifteen years, a prisoner within an unbreakable barrier. The barrier not only kept me from the world—it suppressed my magic and cloaked my true appearance from those who cared for me. Until one fateful day, a stranger with fiery red eyes saw through the illusion. “You really do have beautiful eyes,” he said, shattering the silence of my life. That moment set me free—free from the mansion, free from the illusion. For the first time, I could step into the world I’d dreamed of: the Magic Academy. But reality is far more dangerous than dreams. With enemies lurking in the shadows and my very existence a threat to the kingdom, I must uncover the truth about my power—and about who I truly am—before it's too late. The question is, can I survive long enough to unravel the tangled web of secrets, lies, and deadly conspiracies?

In a world where unseen forces weave through the fabric of reality, Elias Darrow has always felt like an outsider haunted by dreams of shadowy realms and whispers of forgotten truths. When a mysterious letter arrives bearing the seal of a coiled serpent and a burning key, it sets him on a path to the Whispering Spire, a cursed tower shrouded in fear and legend. Inside, Elias discovers a vast Archive brimming with forbidden knowledge and ancient secrets guarded by cryptic figures and malevolent forces. He learns of the Veils mystical barriers that separate realms and of a war brewing in the shadows, threatening to tear the world apart. Marked as a Veilwalker, Elias gains the power to traverse these realms, but each step into the unknown comes with a price. With allies like Amara, an enigmatic guardian with a fractured past, and foes like the Abyssal Cult, who seek to collapse the Veils, Elias must navigate a labyrinth of conspiracies, eldritch horrors, and his own unraveling identity. As the line between truth and madness blurs, Elias faces a harrowing choice: embrace his destiny as a protector of the Veils or risk unleashing a force that could consume all realms. The Chronicle of Veiled Realms is a tale of mystery, adventure, and sacrifice a journey through the darkest corners of existence, where knowledge is power, and power is a double-edged blade.

Four extraordinary worlds : Earth, where humans excel as healers with vast knowledge of medicine; Hell, ruled by demons wielding dark magic; Heaven, home to fairies and goddesses mastering elemental spells; and the mythical world of immortals and cultivators, where mythical creatures and dragons reign supreme as the most powerful of all realms. When the King of Hell fell in love with the Princess of Heaven during her descent to Earth, their forbidden union faced opposition from all three realms. Yet, defying all odds, they overcame the barriers, married, and brought an uneasy peace between Heaven and Hell. Their love bore six sons, but destiny had one more surprise—a seventh child, a miracle. Born as the first princess of Hell, Princess Nomi, the daughter of a demon king and the granddaughter of the King of Heaven, was a beacon of hope and wonder. But just ten days after her birth, the princess vanished, stolen from the castle of Hell without a trace. Years later, Mimi, a clumsy girl living in a quiet village with her aunt, starts seeing strange creatures no one else can. Her aunt dismisses her claims, but Mimi is haunted by the unexplainable. One fateful day, driven by curiosity, she follows the creatures into the deep forest, where she stumbles upon a magical portal. "Mimi, don’t!" her aunt shouts, but the portal seems to have been waiting for her, pulling her into a journey beyond imagination. Who is Mimi, truly? What secrets does her past hold? And why does her existence seem to be the key to the balance of all four worlds? Step into a tale of love, mystery, and destiny, where the fate of realms hangs by a thread, and nothing is as it seems.

She hadn’t expected to be cornered like this, not here, not now. His tall frame loomed over her, blocking any escape as he stood inches from her, pinning her to the wall with his presence alone. His hand rested just above her head, his fingers brushing the cool surface of the locker, creating a barrier that trapped her in place. Her breath caught, her heart thundering in her chest as she realized how little space was left between them. His eyes were dark, full of something she couldn’t decipher but desperately wanted to understand. He stared at her, not saying anything at first, just letting the silence stretch between them. She could feel her pulse race, her face flushing, her body frozen, even though she wanted to push him away. “What are you going to do about it?” he asked, his voice smooth, teasing, and filled with a challenge. There was something in the way he spoke, something that made her stomach twist with a mixture of confusion and excitement. She opened her mouth to say something—anything—but the words wouldn’t come. Her hands hung at her sides, unsure whether to push against his chest or hold herself back. She couldn’t tell if she wanted him to step closer or if she just wanted to run far away from the intensity that radiated from him. “Stop…” she murmured, but the word felt too weak, too powerless against the gravity pulling them together. “What do you want from me?” His lips curled into a small, almost predatory smile. “I want you to stop pretending you don’t feel it,” he said softly, his gaze never leaving hers. His closeness was suffocating, but in the most intoxicating way. The tension between them was palpable, like a storm ready to break. She could feel the heat of his body against hers, could hear the steady rhythm of his breathing as if they were the only two people in the world. She wanted to fight back, wanted to be strong and resist, but something in her—something deep inside—kept her rooted to the spot. He was her classmate, the guy everyone knew, the one with that effortless confidence that made all the girls swoon. And now here he was, making her feel things she wasn’t sure how to deal with. Her hands trembled, caught between pushing him away and giving in to the wild, dizzying pull she felt toward him. She was terrified, but there was also a spark of curiosity, of something she couldn’t quite control. “I’m not… ready for this,” she whispered, though her voice shook with uncertainty. “I don’t even know what you’re doing.” He didn’t answer right away, his gaze softening just enough to let her know that he was listening, that he wasn’t in a rush. He leaned in slightly, his breath brushing against her cheek. “I think you do,” he murmured. “You just don’t want to admit it yet.” Amidst the whirlwind of school friendships, and the pressure. Can anyone dare to be open to the possibility with someone who seems so unreachable?

The unseen, ancient barrier, which had stood between the world of men and the realm of hell, had crumbled. Wounds and Tears—portals ripping through the fabric of reality—appeared by the thousands, unleashing demon hordes. Countries were razed, mighty armed forces vanquished, and millions were slaughtered in the inferno. Yet, the Prince of Heaven did not intend for mankind to face extinction. The Divine Interface appeared, granting powerful relics to worthy individuals, relics capable of wreaking havoc against demonkind in ways that earthly weapons could not. Pierre Acre, a professor at Everett University in a backwater town, in a backwater state, was chosen. His relic: a coin.
