In the shadowed halls of Noctis Manor, secrets whisper louder than the wind. Lady Malventra Noctis, a cunning and enigmatic matriarch, rules her domain with elegance and an iron will. To her, every encounter is a game of power, every word a tool of manipulation. When Marcus, a spirited and sharp-witted youth, stumbles into her orbit, he's drawn into a world of deception, danger, and allure he never imagined.

Guided by Lady Malventra's wicked wisdom, Marcus learns the art of persuasion, the weight of ambition, and the dark cost of truth. But as the line between mentor and master blurs, he must ask himself: Is he becoming the architect of his destiny, or merely a pawn in hers?

With each revelation pulling him deeper into a web of lies, Marcus discovers that beneath the velvet veil lies a world as beautiful as it is deadly... and not everyone escapes unscathed.

"Beneath the Velvet Veil" is a tale of gothic intrigue, manipulation, and the seductive pull of power-a story where elegance masks treachery, and every shadow hides a secret.Todos los derechos reservados

As desire and danger intertwine, she must decide: fight against the binds of a debt she never asked for, or discover if surrendering to them is the only way to survive."
