The red veiled is the mysterious dancer. Her eyes are what lure people in, the green mystery behind the red veil.
Hera Korluzak is the first born to the Korluzak family, daughter of Calizi Korluzak. She was introduced to expectations before anything. She is her fathers project of years, the perfect heir and sadly no more than a puppet whose strings her father pulls. She is okay with being a puppet until the veil.
She'll do anything she's told to, she'll let herself be a project until she puts on her red veil. With the veil she is everyone and no one. The veil is a dream and a life and a secret that belongs to only her.
Until Hazzil comes in her life, that is. He is hired by her father to report on her whereabouts every second on the day. Her secret might not only be hers after all.
☆☆☆
"Will that veil ever come off?"
"I'll have to kill you if you see my face."
"If I was to be killed, I'd want the last face I see to be yours."
☆☆☆
In a world where she is Hera Korluzak and him just another stalker boy, will they ever even have a chance or was it all always borrowed time anyway?
☆☆☆
Hera and Hazzil are not the only couple in this story, there are about three others but the main story revolves around Hera and Hazzil.

Kidnapped to love
The cool night air stung her cheeks as she stumbled through the deserted alley, her heart racing with panic. The echoes of her footsteps bounced off the walls, but no matter how fast she ran, the shadows behind her seemed to close in. "Keep running, doll" a low, sinister voice called out from the darkness, sending a shiver down her spine. "You can't escape me." She halted, her breath ragged, fear rooting her in place. Her mind screamed at her to keep going, but her legs wouldn't move. And then she saw him-emerging from the shadows, his tall frame dominating the space, his cold eyes locked onto hers. "W-Why are you doing this?" she stammered, backing away slowly, her body trembling. His lips curved into a dark, amused smile. "Because you're mine, doll" His voice was calm, terrifyingly so.

jOvian veiL - Middle of the Mist
For as long as Brandon can remember there have been rumours of the world's rarest flower, the Middlemist red, growing on a nearby island close to his sleepy coastal town. His grandmother, Norma, has always wanted to see it in full bloom but has never made a point of crossing it off her bucket list. Brandon seizes the opportunity to fulfill one of her wishes and escorts her, along with his father Nick, on a fun daytrip to see if they can make some lasting memories. The trio embarks on a journey to the remote rocky outcropping on a misty day, full of hope and enthusiasm, but everything isn't as it seems on this island. The group uncovers more than they expected and are forced to fight for their survival in the middle of the mist. 'jOvian veiL' started out as multifaceted project that allowed the reader to immerse themselves in the storytelling of a Science Fiction Novella (Series) but also experience the story from the author's musical perspective (Hard Rock Album). Each chapter of the book has an associated track that corresponds to a mood, feeling or setting in the book (both written and played by the author). 'jOvian veiL' has since expanded the concept of this project to allow for a divergence from the original Novella Series, to allow the author to explore and recount more tales that may not follow the original series. 'jOvian veiL - Middle of the Mist' is the first short story (and single) that uses the same multifaceted approach but is completely separate from the series.Complete

Kaya the enigma wrapped in sunshine. To the world, she is the bubbly, carefree girl who lights up every room she enters. But beneath that radiant smile lies a storm of wrath, a past so dark it forged her into a woman of secrets, vengeance, and unshakable resilience. Only a chosen few know the real Kaya-the one who burns with quiet fury, the one who never forgets a betrayal. Tarun -the ruthless gentleman, feared and revered in equal measure. The world sees a cold, calculating man who commands power with an iron grip. But behind those merciless eyes hides a soul scarred by loneliness, a man who wears cruelty as armor to shield the tenderness within. When their paths cross, destiny weaves them together in a dance of fire and longing. He is drawn to her light, she to his hidden pain. "You are the reason I want to live, Jaan," he confesses, his voice a raw whisper, as if she alone holds the key to his salvation. "You are my solace, Arun. My only solace, my love's solace," she breathes back, her heart laid bare in those words. But the past is a vengeful specter, and when misunderstandings rise like walls between them, their bond shatters. Love turns to anguish, trust to suspicion. Will they find their way back to each other, or will the wrath of her past keep them apart forever? In a world where nothing is as it seems, *Wrath of Her Past* is a story of love's fierce redemption, the masks we wear, and the solace only one soul can bring to another.
