The Forgotten Hall: A Dark Academia Mystery of Desire and Deception

Within the ivy-wrapped walls of a centuries-old university, graduate student Clara Mason arrives determined to prove herself. What starts as ordinary archival research soon unravels into danger hidden letters, broken diaries, and whispers of a scandal buried deep in the school’s past.

At the center of it all is Dr. Evelyn Hart, Clara’s brilliant mentor with eyes that reveal more than she says. Late nights in the stacks, charged silences, glances that linger too long their connection builds in ways Clara never expected. But attraction this sharp cuts close, and trust may be the one thing she can’t afford to give.

The deeper Clara searches, the more the university closes in. Threats in the shadows remind her that some truths are better left hidden. Desire tangles with risk, and passion blurs the fragile line between mentor and student.

Clara must choose: expose a truth that could destroy everything she’s worked for, or turn away and lose the one love she never saw coming.

When secrets and longing collide, how much will she risk for both knowledge and her heart?
