The Veiled Iris: The Arcanum Black Series, Book 1

By S. Harshpreet Singh

The Veiled Iris

"I can feel your magic... It doesn't just break the rules. It calls to mine."

"Naaaaahhh... Don't come near me...."

"Yessss... I want this more...., much more ...."

At the Arcanum Black Academy, power is measured and controlled. Elara Vance's is a wild, emotional force she must hide, especially from Kaelan Reed, the prefect whose own disciplined power is mysteriously, dangerously drawn to hers.

Their alliance is a clash of fire and ice, but every spark threatens to ignite them. In hidden libraries and moonlit courtyards, their lessons become a dance of whispered secrets and charged glances. His touch, meant to correct her form, leaves a trail of light on her skin. Her laughter makes the air hum with unspoken magic. The academy forbids such a bond, but the pull between them is a magic all its own-inexorable, soul-deep, and perilous.

When a shadow conspiracy threatens to destroy the academy, their forbidden connection becomes the only key to survival. To unlock the truth, they must risk everything: their secrets, their power, and their hearts. In a world of lies, the most terrifying truth is how badly they need each other.

The Veiled Iris is the first book in The Arcanum Black Series-a dark academia fantasy where the most dangerous secret is a forbidden love, and the greatest magic is written in the longing between two souls.
