The Bell & The Veil: A Dark Romantasy of Debt, Masks & Rebellion

By: Ahmed, Magdi Abdullah

A bell that demands blood. A girl who dares to count the cost.

Kiera Vale was bred as a debtor's daughter. Branded a Counter, she balances debts between lives, using mercy as mathematical precision. But when the Veil Bell - the living engine of the empire - begins to hum and threaten, she is drawn into a world of impossible doors, fragile masks, and a debt that could cost her everything.

Enter Aurelian Vesper, masked Warden and secret High Lord, whose restraint is a religion and whose truth cuts like a blade. When a door demands hours she does not have, he pays with his body. When he refuses to hand her over to a corrupt court, he risks his crown.

In a city about to fracture, a silent war brews between courts that tax warmth, memory, truth, voice, time, and scars. Against that tension, Kiera and Aurelian must write a bargain in blood, strike a balance in betrayal, and flirt with a sacrifice no kingdom should demand.

If you loved From Blood & Ash, ACOTAR, Fourth Wing - this is your next guilty-pleasure. The Bell & The Veil is a breathless, dark romantasy of debt and devotion where every touch, whisper, and lie moves the scales.
