Black Veil Brides Self Harm

Veiled Kingdom

In the mist-shrouded realm of the Veiled Kingdom, where ancient magic and forgotten histories lie interwoven, a subtle disquiet begins to ripple through the land. Our story begins in Silverhaven, a city cloaked in an unnerving stillness, as Elara and Liam, two figures drawn together by a shared purpose, arrive at the ominous Archivist's Spire. Whispers of a disturbance in the delicate balance of the "veil" – a mysterious, fundamental force of their world – have reached them, compelling them to seek answers within the Spire's shadowed depths. As they venture deeper into the Veiled Kingdom, guided by cryptic maps and haunted by fragmented legends of the past, Elara and Liam will uncover secrets far more profound and dangerous than they initially imagined. They will navigate treacherous political landscapes, confront shadowy forces guarding ancient truths, and forge alliances with enigmatic characters, all while grappling with their own inner demons and the growing threat to the kingdom they are sworn to protect. "The Veiled Kingdom" unfolds across ten compelling arcs, each chapter adding a new layer to the intricate tapestry of its world, its characters, and its central mysteries. From the initial "Unveiling" of the kingdom's unsettling present to the ultimate "Reckoning and Renewal," the series will explore themes of destiny, truth, power, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of hope in the face of encroaching darkness. "To be continued" will mark the end of each chapter, inviting readers to journey further into this richly imagined world, until finally, "the end" will signify the culmination of their epic quest to unveil the true heart of the Veiled Kingdom.

Noctis Veil

In the neon-lit metropolis of Valentis, the world appears orderly and controlled. But hidden beneath the surface, an ancient darkness stirs—a parallel realm known as the Noctis Veil. A place where light dies, forgotten souls wander, and those who enter rarely return. Orion Vale never asked to be a part of this world. Orphaned and struggling to survive in the underbelly of the city, he lived by one rule: stay unnoticed. But when an accidental encounter activates a strange mark on his body, Orion is suddenly thrust into a deadly game where the stakes are far beyond his understanding. Hunted by creatures that shouldn’t exist and pursued by powerful factions who see him as either a weapon or a threat, Orion’s only hope is to uncover the secrets of the Veil before it consumes him. Guided by the enigmatic Seraphine Dusk, a rogue operative who knows too much, Orion learns that his curse is not just an anomaly—it is a key. A key that could either shatter the chains of the Veil or awaken something far worse. But every step deeper into the shadows comes at a cost, and Orion must decide whether to fight his fate or embrace the darkness within. As the war between the Veil Wardens, the corrupt Eclipse Syndicate, and the ancient Veil Lords reaches its breaking point, Orion realizes he stands at the crossroads of destruction and dominion. In a world where nothing is as it seems, where shadows whisper and forgotten gods stir, the question remains: Will Orion break the Veil, or become its ruler?

They say the Gods tied an invisible red string around the little finger of those who were soulmates and will one day marry each other. The thread may be stretched, twisted or knotted but it will never be broken. *********************************************** Death. A word that terrifies humans. The absence of life, an inevitable universal process that occurs in all living things. For Crystal Myers, his death was just around the corner. She was diagnosed with a congenital heart disease when she was a kid. Although her family was wealthy, the doctors said it cannot be cured even with surgery.

She was hesitant, of course. But a new life with a stranger wasn't a bad idea to move on from Brad. EXCERPT: “Why am I still alive? And where am I?” “You’re in my house.” It was a man's voice, but because of the darkness invading the room, she couldn’t see who it was. “I died. My heart stopped beating. How am I alive?” She asked again. “I saved you. It was forbidden, but I had to.” The shadow shown by the moonlight confirmed that the voice was coming from the couch just a few steps away from the bed. “You saved me? How?” The figure stood up and slowly walked toward the light. Her eyes bawled seeing a hooded black skeleton holding a scythe in front of her. “Y-You’re the grim reaper!” She exclaimed. “So you know about me. I am Erebus, son of the Goddess of Death Mist, Achlys. I am here to collect your soul.” She thought it was just a dream, but looking at her husband, she realized that he was not just a regular doctor. Could she continue her life with the man who had a dark secret? Could she control her heart every time he touched her? Would she continue being his wife if she found out that she was being deceived? ************************************* Book cover is not mine. Credit to the rightful owner.

Veil Of Judgement

His parents told him it was due to an accident—one so severe it had erased his past completely. Still, doubts plagued him. The people of the kingdom whispered behind his back, questioning his legitimacy. Servants exchanged glances when they thought he wasn’t looking. And then there was his own reflection—too perfect, too unnatural. He looked nothing like his parents. The sharp contrast between their features and his made the rumors even harder to ignore.
