Veil of Deceit

A Dark Butch and Femme Tale of Stalking and Obsession

Noa believed that moving away from home and leaving all the memories of her past would help her start a new life without any form of ties to the event that could totally destroy the life she has built. Her stepmother is however determined to draw her back to the shadows of teenage mistakes that Noa has struggled to leave behind. She is also constantly surrounded
by the presence of an unknown protector and predator.


Riley after suffering through a toxic childhood and having to murder her
own parents as a child finally gets a job as a private investigator. The job is the perfect cover for her second identity as a masked stalker which comes out only at night. Riley finds the perfect prey for her night identity as a stalker and waits everyday for night time when she can stalk Noa. Her job gets better when she gets the official offer to protect Noa during the day
as a private investigator. Her obsession with Noa soon develops into a tornado of feelings she can't control.


The clash from discovering the truth of the dual personalities puts Riley in a place of regret and Noa in a place of heartbreak and betrayal.


Will the truth of Noa's past and the stalker's exposed identity prove to be their end? Or will it be the final reason for their bond to become stronger forever?
