Sloane’s dreams ache. The club hums.

Yes, I made a historical timeline for my fictional world.
No, I will not stop. ❌ ❌
Yes, there’s a meteor. ☄️
And Veilfall. And blood oaths.
A Hidden History: Magic Beneath the Bones drops tomorrow.

Dropped a new Veilborne memory—
Declan, before the bond.
Just dirty shoes, quick fingers, and a coin that shouldn’t exist.
Found family doesn’t start with fate.
Sometimes, it starts with hunger.

Waking up in a place that doesn’t know your name yet…
The sheet too soft.
The blankets too heavy.
The air thick with unfamiliar silence.
Even the door sticks like it’s unsure of me.
My body’s hungry. My magic’s quiet.
This isn’t home—not yet.
from Veilborne, Ch. 2

If you had magic tied to one emotion… which one would burn brightest?

“Respect isn’t earned by title or threat,” Vincent said, voice like silk over a dagger. “It’s inspired… or extracted. I do respect your position—just as I respect decay, erosion, and every other force that ensures nothing old survives forever.”

Through vibes, witchcraft, and the occasional unhinged comment section. Mutual obsession helps.
Oh, and Substack.

She feeds me by the fire, sings in a language I almost understand. I think she's my mother.
Then they come, cloaked men, glowing blades. She runs with me until the forest splits, light pulsing through a crack in the trees.
Her scream follows me into waking.
#WIPSnips #Veilborne #DarkFantasy
Shadow day. Still writing. Still dangerous.
Tomorrow’s post: Mate bonds, power, and the sacred lie they tell.
Love isn’t soft in Veilborne. It’s a spell. A weapon. A wound.
🔥 Substack drops in the morning.

✍️ Current Writing State
Started a cozy RH romcom to escape Veilborne and Wards & Whispers…
Now I’ve got a chaos witch w/ BBQ sauce & wings, 3 hot roommates, and ADHD that won’t let me focus on ONE story.
Balance, right?😆

This week’s bonus lore is visual:
The Wildwood through Sloane’s eyes.
A moodboard of shadows, longing, and something ancient waking beneath the moss.

There was a point where the shadows stopped listening.
When fear turned to rage.
When her voice cracked, and the whole room flinched.
That was when the Veil started to bleed.

✒️ New journal drop from Sloane: The Hollowed Cry.
Shadows. Silence. The ache of being too much too young.
This one hurts. Come read.

Day 4 of #FantasyIndiesJune
“I can feel when someone’s lying—
not because I hear their heart skip.
But because my magic recoils. Like it knows.”
#FantasyIndiesJune #Veilborne #Soulbound
“They say mate bonds heal you.
They never talk about what happens when one breaks.”
Something’s stirring behind the Veil.
Stories stitched with soul magic, betrayal, and prophecy are bleeding through.

He reached for me—gentle, unsure.
“Are you hurt?”
I checked.
No blood. No bruise.
Just that look in his eyes.
That was the part that ached.
#WIPSnips #Veilborne #slowburn #check
He doesn’t knock. Just stands there, palm to her door, feeling her magic pulse like a phantom heartbeat.
She told him to wait.
His bond howls.
But he waits anyway—because she asked, and that’s the only law he obeys.

Clara Dusk—meant to be a quiet Council aide. Ended up a double agent, wielder of a cursed blade, and Sloane’s biggest betrayal.

The mission started with shadowed forests and shared lies.
Now it’s a war held together by stolen moments and unspoken bonds.
They don’t trust fate.
They trust each other.

WIP: Veilborne – dark romantasy with emotion-fueled magic, slow-burn mate bonds, & a half-Fae heroine marked by prophecy.
Fun fact: I call my cramps “the Blood God.” 🖤
#ComJunity #amwriting #WIP #Veilborne #reverseharem #darkfantasy
Shadows screamed through her ribs. The Veil didn’t open, it ripped.
Sloane staggered, barely standing, magic cracking the ground.
Then, warmth.
Declan caught her.
“Easy, love,” he murmured. “Even stars stagger before they fall into place.”

I thought I was just moving across the ocean.
But the first man I met in London greeted me like I was prophecy wrapped in sarcasm and sweat.
He called me “a storm.”
And somehow… it didn’t feel wrong.
Chapter 4 is live.
🖤 Dark magic. 🩸 Hidden truths. 🗡️ A girl learning she’s dangerous.
The Veil’s thinning—and she’s not running.

The plants in Sloane’s apartment have started reacting to her magic.
Not just growing—listening.
One of them changed color last week. Another moved closer while she was sleeping.
She hasn’t named them yet.
She’s afraid they might answer.
#Veilborne #WIPSnips #DarkFantasy #ReverseHarem #FoundFamily
In a world where magic is fueled by emotion, mate bonds don’t just connect you—they consume you.
"What if I do want saving?" she murmurs. "Just the fun kind."
The bond flared—then choked.
"Don’t burn just to be seen," I whisper. "Not like this."
#WIPWednesday #Veilborne #DarkFantasy
"What if I do want saving?" she murmurs. "Just the fun kind."
The bond flares—then chokes. Like a laugh twisted through a scream.
"Don’t burn just to be seen," I tell her, voice low. "Not like this."
