"I am about to set you a challenge, Miss Jones, one that has very real life and death consequences." Andromache Jones is a tarot-reading witch from the sleepy village of Bramblesgrove, where she runs River Gardens Mystical Services. From here, she gives tarot readings, casts runes, gazes lovingly at the moon and stars, plays with crystals and herbs...and sometimes solves crimes. She likes to think of herself as a part-time private detective who untangles mysteries, but really she is an amateur sleuth who happens to attract trouble - and troublesome clients. Andromache Jones has somehow managed to capture the attention of The Magician and finds herself caught up in The Game, his challenge that has very real life and death consequences, and not only for her. Can she complete the test he has set in the allotted time and live to see another day, or will failure, and The Magician triumph? This 10th Anniversary 2nd Edition was updated February - March 2023.

"We are warriors of the night, lycanthropes as some would call us, but we go by an altogether different name. A more significant name, one that we wear in the highest of honor. A word that describes one of our most prominent features. We are Claws." In a world where destiny and duty collide, Mae, the fiercely determined daughter of the Eastern pack's chief, returns home after four years of rigorous alpha training, prepared to embrace her destiny as the next pack leader. But as she steps into her role, her plans twist unexpectedly with the arrival of Zale-her childhood friend's older brother, whose charmingly infuriating antics have evolved into a heart-stopping allure. Once just an annoying figure from her past, Zale has transformed into the pack's most notorious womanizer, flaunting a cocky smile that stirs something deep within Mae. Their unavoidable encounters reignite a rivalry that neither expected to reshape into an undeniable chemistry.

In a gripping tale of self-discovery, loyalty, and fierce love, join Mae as she uncovers the power that lies in vulnerability and the intertwining destinies of those who step into the light and into the shadows. Can Mae reconcile her budding romance with Zale amid the brewing war, and will she emerge as the leader her pack needs? Or will secrets from the past shatter everything she's worked for? Prepare to be swept away into a world of passion and peril, where every decision may alter the fate of her pack and her heart.

But they are once again encountering a different adventure that is beyond their imagination. With Wu Xie's health deteriorating, will they be able to discover the secret of their new journey and come back safely, or another near-death encounter? Author's Note: This is actually my first time creating a story, and I choose to create one of my favorite dramas, DAO MU BI JI. It is fascinating how well the author Xu Lei can create the mystery and plot in the story. It is also kind of like opening up my knowledge about the history, folks, and legends that exist. So, I wanted to make one fanfiction based on this story. All characters belong to Xu Lei, I only just created a different plot based on my imagination. And also I will be adding some new characters too to match the plot I wanted to create. Thank you for reading and stopping by, I really appreciate it ❤️. Also, English is my second language, so please excuse me for any misspellings or any weird words I used. Thank you for understanding. Please do not Repost, thank you.

In this world humans are no longer the dominant Race on earth as a mutation in their blood caused a new Species of human to be born. These new humans were given the title Esoterica as they only make up 2 percent of the world's population.

Along with that the Esoterica have developed abilities that allow them to do unthinkable things. These abilities range from allowing the Esotericas to shape and control basic elements, as well as granting them absolute control over the internal and external structure of their body's and in some cases the ability can allow them to completely change there cellular makeup.

How do you kill an immortal? With magic that has seen life and death. With magic that has never been discovered before. With magic so out of control, so powerful, so volatile that it can fight anything else. Forbidden magic, of course. Almost sixteen years ago, a magical artefact was stolen and three people eluded Death. One of them had been tracked down and killed- another lived a quiet life, unnoticed by death. It would have been fine if the last had done the same, lived their life quietly to the end of their days. But it just so happened that they were the one of the three that had never been good. And the only one that was truly immortal. And so when Blake and Aster are settled down for some time away from death, away from reaping, to recover from the events of last year, they are surprised to find Arielle, sobbing, as her mother lay on the ground, dead. Who had done it? Why? And will they act quick enough to stop it from happening to them, too? I don't just want to elude death. I want to conquer it.
