Veil of Voices || Carlisle Cullen
8 parts Ongoing Centuries ago, in the shadow of ancient Greece, three siblings were bound by blood, fate, and the hunger of immortality. Aro, the ambitious, Didyme, the gentle, and Lysandra, the one cursed with a gift too dangerous to wield: a voice that bends the will of anyone who hears it.
But when Lysandra uncovers the truth of her sister's death, that Aro's hands were stained with Didyme's blood, her world shatters. Fleeing the Volturi and their iron grip, she spends centuries drifting in silence, haunted by betrayal and weighed down by power she never asked for.
Now, in the quiet town of Forks, she hides in plain sight as a literature teacher, shrouded in sorrow. She intends only to survive, unseen and forgotten. But fate draws her into the lives of the Cullens, especially their compassionate patriarch, Carlisle. When a fragile pull begins to form between them, secrets buried for millennia threaten to unravel.
Can Lysandra keep her past hidden beneath the veil of voices, or will Aro's shadow fall once more upon the life she is beginning to crave?
