What Lies Beyond The Veil Novels & Stories

"We need to go to the Veil. It’s the only place where his essence can still cling to this world. There, we might find the key to his destruction." The Veil—the boundary between the living and the dead. It was a place few dared to venture, as it was said that once you crossed it, you could never come back. But if we were to stand any chance against Varyn’s dark spirit, we had no choice but to face it. "How do we get there?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. "We’ll have to travel through the ancient woods," Lucien replied. "It's a dangerous path, filled with traps and illusions. Only those with the power to see through the Veil can navigate it."

"Elara… look." I did. Across the horizon, the Veil wasn’t just pulsing now—it was tearing. Thin cracks of black light crawled down from the sky, splitting the clouds open. Through them, I saw movement—colossal, slow, and deliberate. Shapes. Too vast to be named. The kind of things the gods buried when they still feared the dark. Julian’s voice was almost a whisper. "It’s waking up." I turned to him. "What is it?" He looked at me—terrified, reverent. "The thing beneath the Veil. The first one. The reason it was sealed."

He turned back to Liam, trying to please him. "Grandmaster Burrey, would you like us to give you a tour of the villa? After all, Villa 3 is quite spacious, with a hidden wine cellar and secret chambers. If it's your first time, you might not be familiar with the layout!" "Layla, would you like to go in and take a look?" Ryan added, addressing Layla. Liam turned to gaze at Layla, but she remained silent, still stunned by the recent events. "Layla?"

She was wearing a veil underneath, one that made me wonder why she had the shawl in the first place. "My name is Layla. Even though I am a witch, I can disguise my scent to be that of a werewolf. You will keep my secret and tell your people that you found me on your way back from the forest. I simply want a home and I will give you my body for as long as you want" She finally broke the weird silence between us. "Sounds good to me. Pack up" I said and walked back to the car to wait for her. She didn't take long at all and by the time she joined me, I could have sworn that she was a wolf. Beautiful, dainty, and perfect. Just the perfect distraction for me.

***MAYA'S POV*** My eyes fluttered open, struggling to adjust to the glaring light overhead. As the brightness faded into focus, I was met with stark white walls that felt more like a canvas hauntingly devoid of color. The sterile smell of antiseptic mixed with faint whiffs of medication filled the air, suffocating me. A nearby machine beeped in a steady rhythm, the sound foreign and mechanical. Suddenly, it all came rushing back. I shot up in bed, adrenaline coursing through me, only to feel a firm hand on my shoulder, gently but insistently pulling me back down. I turned to find Christi, her face etched with concern, eyes brimming with unshed tears.

In this weather? I was so surprised and ran to it sitting down on my knees I cleared the snow settled on it. It was a beautiful six petal white flower. As I was busy doing my important work I sensed someone staring at me. An uneasy feeling dwell in my heart and my head subconsciously moved up. There I saw something on the other side at some distance ahead, staring straight at me it's eyes boring into my soul. I couldn't figure out what it was but whatever that thing is, it's huge and black in colour.

"We are not lying to you, Imman! Please marry her, that is her last wish..." "But...sir...How about my family? I have been away for a long time...My father could have been so sad without me...How could you even try to deceive me!"

Beatrice nodded without comment, "Okay. You're considerate. It would be nice if you could always be by my side! I'll go change and come down. You two wait here." Both Ivanna and I nodded. As Beatrice walked away, Ivanna asked me quietly, "Has the deed been done? How was it handled? Have you heard of any news?" "It's already taken care of! They said to bury him anywhere!" I whispered back. "What? Buried together?" Ivanna asked in surprise. "How's that possible? Only Byron was buried. The other two were discarded after being abandoned and deemed unclaimed."
