✿ Whispers Beneath the Veil ✿
"The Price of Secrets"
> Beneath the moon's pale, trembling light,
Lies truth that dares not meet the night.
A promise whispered, a vow once made,
Now dances in the dark—betrayed.
Hearts entangled in threads of fate,
Some too soon, and some too late.
Love may shield, but lies reveal—
The wounds that time can never heal.
For every secret left untold,
The stars will shimmer, cruel and cold.
And those who guard their truth too long,
Become the shadows they've lived among.

"Xavier, wait!" she called out, and he paused mid-step, shoulders rigid.
"What is it?" he asked, voice emotionless, though a flicker of concern betrayed him.
Her lips trembled slightly before she spoke. "I think... my identity has been revealed."
His brows furrowed instantly. "What do you mean?"
"I think Vehant knows where I am."
For a moment, silence fell between them—thick, suffocating, and filled with unsaid fears.
