Beneath the stars, a secret sleeps... and she might be the one to awaken it.
In the ancient, enchanted realm of Chandlok, the night sky hides more than constellations-it hides curses, forgotten magic, and a prophecy written in starlight.
Sana, a girl born without powers in the enchanted world of Chandlok, is treated as an outcast - unwanted, unworthy, and unseen. Yet fate hides a cruel twist - she is the chosen one, destined to change the world and uncover the buried truths of her bloodline. When she steps into the royal palace, her life intertwines with Prince Hatim, the most powerful being in existence - cold as ice, ruthless as fire, and feared by all.
But what happens when the girl born to defy fate meets the man forged to rule it?
Hatim's heart, long frozen by betrayal and pain, begins to thaw in Sana's presence, even as the world around them burns with deceit. Torn between power and love, destiny and desire - their story becomes a dangerous dance between salvation and destruction.
Will their love bloom bright enough to heal Chandlok...
or will it shatter them both under the weight of the stars?
💫 A tale of love, power, and destiny - where light and darkness are bound by one name: Starveil.

Drenched in Betrayal
His voice was hoarse as he whispered against my ear, "Shh, love. Stop being so irresistible. I want to give you something." He pulled his fingers out of my pants, leaving me empty and frustrated. My eyes snapped to his instantly, a soft whimper escaping my lips. He took out a small, velvet box from his pocket, holding it out to me silently. Curiosity piqued, I opened it to reveal a pair of delicate gold anklets, tiny diamonds and rubies scattered along the chain. I looked up at him questioningly, but he just smiled softly, taking my left foot gently in his hand. He wrapped one anklet around my left ankle, securing it with a gentle click. Then he picked up my right foot, his touch reverent. "Fuck, love," he murmured, "You look even more beautiful with these." He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to my left ankle, right above the anklet. I gasped, he smiled against my skin before kissing my right ankle as well. "Perfect." he whispered. ⚬──────────✧──────────⚬ Aarohi Arora, a soft-spoken, seemingly fragile girl with quiet strength buried deep within her.
