    Summary

    What lies beneath the Veiled could destroy the world. Or just the two of them.

    Disguised as an engaged couple, Aurors Rose Weasley and Scorpius Malfoy are sent to a forgotten wizarding settlement to investigate a surge in dark magic.

    What starts as a routine undercover mission turns darker when they uncover the cult’s plan to unseal an ancient, sentient vault buried beneath Ebonreach which threatens to unleash artifacts that could upend the magical world.

    Once academic rivals and reluctant partners, they’re now forced into close quarters, pretending to love each other in front of a town that watches their every move. But the longer they fake it, the harder it becomes to tell where the act ends. With buried resentments, unspoken feelings, and a growing emotional intimacy neither of them planned for, the greatest threat may not be what waits in the vault - but what happens when pretending stops feeling like a lie.

    And the deeper they dig into the town’s secrets, the harder it becomes to ignore their own.
