Secrets Kept in Velvet

Situated in the chilly, pine-scented mountains of Baguio, Veridian Heights Academy presents an image of immaculate elegance and subtle luxury. However, beneath its flawless exterior, the campus becomes entirely isolated from the outside world whenever heavy fog and torrential downpours sweep across the mountains. The mood darkens as a series of unusual and deadly occurrences happens at this school. Bullying and hostility take a deadly turn, yet each event is conveniently dismissed as a mere accident to protect the elite institution's reputation. As anxiety takes hold of the student body, strict curfews are enforced, and unsettling rumors spread. Unknown to them, a dark figure lurks in the poorly lit corridors, silently removing threats with deadly precision.

Amidst the terror, one girl walks strangely untouched. She feels the constant, invisible weight of a gaze fixed only on her-quiet, all-consuming, unshakable. Danger melts away before it draws near; harsh words falter; threats vanish into the cold mist. She does not know who guards her, or why-only that this fixation runs deeper than the dark itself.

No truths spoken aloud. No motives laid bare. Everything is wrapped in silence, hidden in the shadows-secrets kept in velvet.
