Eve Blackwood invites her four closest friends-Jasper, Mira, Finn, and Zoe-to her family's ancestral home for a weekend getaway. The Blackwood estate, perched on a cliff overlooking the sea, has been abandoned for years due to rumors of strange occurrences.
As they arrive, an unusual mist descends, obscuring the property. The group discovers an ornate gate on the grounds, previously unknown to Eve. It's shrouded in mist and seems to emit a faint, eerie glow.
Each friend experiences unexplainable events:

Jasper hears whispers when alone.
Mira sees shadowy figures in mirrors.
Finn feels a constant, unseen presence.
Zoe has vivid, unsettling dreams.
Eve finds old family documents hinting at a dark secret.

As they investigate, they uncover a generations-old curse tied to the gate. The mist is thickening, and they realize they must solve the mystery and break the curse before the gate fully opens, potentially releasing something sinister into the world.
The friends must use their unique skills and strengthen their bond to unravel the truth behind the Mist-Shrouded Gate and the Blackwood family's hidden past  The tale begins with a group of friends - Eve, Jasper, Zoe, Finn, and Mira - who encounter a mysterious gate that leads them into a series of supernatural adventures. They face various challenges, including battling an entity called Erebus and exploring different realities.
As the story progresses, they discover they're part of a larger cosmic plan. They become cosmic constants, each responsible for maintaining different aspects of reality: Time, Order, Life, Space, and Change.
However, they soon learn that they're caught in a cosmic loop, repeatedly facing similar challenges. They encounter an older version of Finn who reveals that this loop was created to combat cosmic entropy.

Will she ever forgive them for abandoning her? Will they ever be able to unveil her secrets? Where was she for all those years? This is story of a girl who was abandoned by her brothers when she was seven. Now, after 9 years, her brothers brought her back home. How will she deal with them, simultaneously dealing with the terrors that haunt her every night? Sneak Peak- Once we were out, I stopped and turned to face my blood relatives and said, "Okay, now that I am out you don't need to act anymore. Now, you guys can go back to your house and pretend that this never happened. I will go to my house and will make sure that we will not cross each other's path, even by accident." I was about to turn back when Ezekiel held my elbow, stopping me on my track. I immediately snatched my hand back glaring at him and said, "Do not ever touch me again." His eyes showed an emotion of hurt that I am sure I read incorrectly because one thing that Kensington brothers are incapable of was getting hurt by any outsider. And that was what I was. An outsider. Sensing the tension in the atmosphere Aldric took it upon himself to say whatever his brother was about to. "You are going with us." He spoke. One thing about Aldric Kensington was that once he has made his mind, there is nothing in this world that can change his decision. This is the very quality of his that made my life a living nightmare, and this is exactly why I hate him more than any of my brothers. "Let's go Athaliah," Ezekiel said this time. That name. No one has called me by that name in six years. "My name is Zahra," I corrected and continued, "And I am not going with you." #1 in running on 2/2/25 #1 in babysister on 15/12/24 #1 in brothersconflict on 27/12/24 #2 in abandoned #2 in broken #2 in abusing #2 in pastabuse #2 in nightterror #4 in olderbrother #3 in brokenfamily #5 in mafiaprincess #9 in siblings #34 in siblingrivalry #34 in littlesister #44 in ptsd #51 in misunderstood #59 in mafia
