What Lives Beneath the Veil

What Lives Beneath the Veil

#completed What Lives Beneath the Veil --- She smiles. You trust her. That is your first mistake. Your last mistake is breathing. --- THE PREMISE Every monster wears a mask. The most dangerous ones wear innocence. Princess Liora Veyne is born without a soul. No one notices. Not her family. Not her kingdom. Not the countless victims who will one day die smiling because she told them everything would be fine. She learns early: the world trusts a sweet face. So she gives them one. Eyes wide. Voice soft. Smile gentle. The perfect princess. The harmless girl. The last thing you will ever see. Behind the mask: centuries of blood. --- THE CURSE Her 101st victim does not die quietly. He dies cursing. No lover will ever satisfy you. You will crave endlessly—always hungry, never full. Every person who touches you will become your next sacrifice. The curse does not break her. It perfects her. Now she hunts differently. Not with violence. With seduction. Every willing body becomes a ritual. Every night of pleasure becomes a countdown to death. She traps them with charm, consumes them with hunger, and adds their power to her own. The craving never stops. Neither does she. --- THE CYCLE Across centuries, they come. Heroes. Warriors. Chosen ones. They gather their allies. They forge their weapons. They believe—foolishly, beautifully—that this time will be different. It is never different. She defeats them all. Not in battle. In trust. She learns their names. Their hopes. Their weaknesses. She becomes whatever they need—a friend, a lover, a savior—and destroys them when they are too broken to fight back. Their bodies fuel her immortality. Their screams become her lullaby. And the mask never slips. --- THE HORROR She watches kingdoms burn. Empires crumble. Stars die. She adapts. Evolves. Wears new faces in every era. Medieval castles. Industrial cities. Digital worlds. The future. The mask changes. The hunger does not. She is immortal. Insatiable. Unstoppable. And no one knows. Not the heroes who die trying to stop her. Not the families who weep at her "tragic" funerals. Not the world that calls her good. The veil has never lifted. It never will. --- THE TRUTH This is not a story about redemption. The villainess does not learn to love. The curse does not break. The heroes do not win. This is a story about failure. Eternal, absolute, hopeless failure. Every hero falls. Every lover dies. Every attempt to stop her makes her stronger. The cycle has no end. The hunger has no cure. The mask has no crack. She walks among you now. She smiles at you now. And you will never, ever know. --- "She has been wearing the veil for a thousand years. You will never see what lives beneath." --- End of Synopsis CONTENT WARNING: This series contains explicit sexual violence, human sacrifice, psychological torture, murder of innocent characters (including children and family members), ritualistic killing, and extreme horror. No character is safe. Read at your own risk.

Artemis has no clue that a bigger war is coming which will set out kingdoms on fire, Aurora has seen it in her dreams and it's for the Sweet Waters Throne in Maldonia. The end is uncertain but the ways are clearer, who will sit on the throne after the war to end all wars. The Bastard who's been denied his true claim to the Sweet Waters throne with the mighties fleet in the world and King Artemis of Maldonia who has Aurora and dragons breathing fire. ~ Excerpt Scene ~ "Are you ready? A dragon is not a horse my love" Aurora expressed her concerns. "The dragons are ready to be claimed, Your Grace. I think it’s the perfect time for Artodo to take the skies and be claimed. He and the King have great relationship. He just needs to understand the words that’s all. "Torgo explained while looking at both Aurora and Artemis. "I understand the words." Said Artemis. "Incendio for fire and Valar for him to fly. I know some Low Moor too." It seemed Aurora wasn’t easily convinced, "Knowing the language of our ancestors doesn’t mean you can hang on to the dragon and take to the skies, especially since you are not just practicing. You are taking the dragon to the Mines, in clear daylight." "Exactly, that is the only way we can silence Lord Leoric. I cannot let him take advantage of my sister, I have to try…" Visera interrupted. "He’s ready, I can see it in his eyes." She said with a smirk. Aurora ordered Torgo. "Bring him outside," in Low Moor. Torgo nodded and walked inside the darkened cave with a fire torch. All five dragons were inside the cave perfectly chained. He went after Artodo, the biggest of them all. The black beast, standing at forty feet from head to tail with a wingspan of twenty feet. A terrifying beast to even stare at. Artemis took two deep breaths. "According to my ancestors history, the youngest dragon rider to ever took the skies was ten years old. You’ll be fine." Aurora teased Artemis after she noticed how nervous he was. The dragon keepers placed a saddle on Artodo’s back and two strong handles made of iron and wood for Artemis to hang on to. Then, finally Aurora walked to Artodo — the black beast. She pulled in Artemis and they both touched the dragon’s right eye, soothing him before the take off. "This is your rider now Artodo, you are to obey him from this day forward to the last, as your mother commands." Aurora said this is Low Moor while the dragon hissed slowly. The dragon hissed and Aurora took it a sign that Artodo understood him. She took a step back and let Artemis take over. These two weren’t strangers to one another. Artemis’s touch wasn’t strange to Artodo and he silently lowered his left wingspan for Artemis to climb up. Carefully and slowly, Artemis mounted the black beast. It was no secret that he was scared. When he was on top of the dragon, Artemis smiled looking down and he suddenly exclaimed. "You all look like tiny bees from up here!" Aurora, Visera, Torgo and the dragon keepers laughed. Aurora walked to him and they looked at each other. Their dream finally came true; "Promise me, you’ll come back alive." Said Aurora. "I promise." "And that you will not burn the Mines to the ground. If she disagrees with you, perhaps it’s time to let her go." This was what Artemis truly needed to hear so he may stop his obsession with saving his sister. When he was ready, he shouted to Artodo. "Valar Artodo," and right there the dragon’s feet pounded the ground heavy as it prepared for takeoff.

Darkness Beneath the Light

In a world where appearances deceive and truth is often silenced, Darkness Beneath the Light tells a heart-wrenching story of honor, betrayal, justice, and the devastating consequences of false accusations. Haroon Sahib is a noble and upright police officer, widely respected for his integrity and dedication. With his gentle and pious wife Maryam, he raises two sons—Ubaid, the elder, mature and focused on becoming a lawyer, and Irfan, the younger, bright, emotional, and dreaming of joining the military to serve his country. The family lives a humble yet dignified life, held together by love and strong values. But their world begins to unravel when Maryam passes away, leaving a hollow in the hearts of her husband and children. Haroon, once emotionally present, becomes withdrawn. Ubaid, out of duty, takes charge of family responsibilities. Irfan, however, seeks solace outside the home and begins to drift toward questionable friendships. During college, Irfan meets Komal, a beautiful and confident girl who wins his trust and affection. Unbeknownst to him, Komal is a puppet in the hands of a criminal syndicate. Alongside her manipulative friend Sanam, Komal lures Irfan into an emotional and physical relationship, convincing him to cross boundaries he once swore he'd never break. Then, the trap is sprung—Sanam accuses him of sexual assault. The case explodes into scandal. The honorable Haroon is publicly humiliated. Media, neighbors, and colleagues turn against him. The father who once stood as a pillar of justice now bears the shame of a disgraced name. Irfan is arrested and, despite Ubaid taking up the case as his defense lawyer, is sentenced to life imprisonment. The evidence has been expertly manipulated; Ubaid loses the trial, and with it, a part of himself. Shattered by the verdict, Haroon suffers a stroke and becomes paralyzed. The household plunges into darkness, each member battling guilt and grief. Ubaid, determined to uncover the truth, joins forces with Inspector Raza, Haroon’s former colleague. Their investigation reveals Komal and Sanam’s involvement in an organized racket that targets innocent young men. As new evidence comes to light and other victims testify, a retrial is ordered. Komal and Sanam are arrested, and the truth finally emerges. After years in prison, Irfan is exonerated. But the damage is irreversible—his military dreams shattered, his youth stolen, and his spirit deeply wounded. Haroon, on his deathbed, finds peace in knowing his son is free. He passes away a broken yet vindicated man. Irfan begins a difficult journey of healing, supported by Ubaid, who now runs a legal aid service to help those falsely accused. Together, they rise from the ashes, carrying their father’s torch of justice. Darkness Beneath the Light is a powerful tale about the cost of silence, the cruelty of deception, and the resilience of those who dare to fight back. It reminds us that evil often hides behind beauty, but the truth, no matter how long buried, will find its light

Dark waters
The dark color of the seawater could be caused by many factors. From the perspective of light absorption and scattering, seawater absorbs and scatter light of different frequencies differently. When there were more substances in the seawater, it would greatly affect the transmission of light. If there were a large number of suspended particles, algae, or other organisms in the seawater, these substances would absorb and scatter light, making it difficult for light to penetrate the seawater, causing the seawater to look dark. For example, in some heavily polluted waters, a large amount of pollution would block light and make the water look darker. In terms of water depth, light needed to penetrate a long distance in extremely deep waters. As the depth increased, light was gradually absorbed. After a certain depth, almost no light could reach, so the deep waters looked dark. In terms of ecological factors, if there was a special biological phenomenon, such as a large number of creatures gathering and producing special absorption or reflection of light, it might also make the sea look dark. In some special geographical environments, such as the seabed topography that made it difficult for light to reach or the slow flow of seawater and poor exchange, the seawater might also appear dark.
