detective fairy law mage magic mystery romance thriller

Dive into a world full of magic and modernization. It's 2218 and magic has been a part of the world since the 5th century. With the rise of government and regulation, Magic Laws have been placed in effect to appease the people of the world. Every mage must have a license to use their magic outside of their homes but there are those who follow the dangerous path instead. Follow our resident mage (a magical person) Claire Dunsworth who becomes a NYC Mage Detective and her new partner the rugged Detective Raven Black as they investigate crimes of a magical nature.


Claire is a mage with exceptional magical talent if not too exceptional for the higher ups within the Guild that monitors all mages of the world. She is an orphan and grew up in a Home for Magical Children on Mage  Island, floating in the middle of the Pacific. Under constant watch and scrutiny from the Guild, Claire now finds herself working side by side with a Black, the very family that was breed to become mage assassins, killing thousands of her people. The fact that the Black is also a handsome man does not help Claire's case at all.

Raven has nothing to do with his family and yet is hostile to Claire upon finding out she's a mage. He worked as a detective to make sure everyone had equal justice but when he got his new partner Claire his world is thrown upside down. Not only is she a mage whom he silently despises but she's also the most beautiful woman he's ever laid eyes on. As they work together and find a rocky truce between themselves they travel the city solving crimes with a magical association. Raven accepts Claire without cause while Claire lays her life down for the man who stole her heart. As they fall for one another a dark figure lerks in the shadows, plotting something sinister for our mage Claire. Could this dark figure perhaps have something to do with Claire's unclear past? Can Raven, a Black, somehow save this woman before she's taken from him forever?All Rights Reserved

The Hunt by timberrr_

A blaring set of lights filled my eyes and freezing my body in place, I went into slight shock by the sight. "Let's see what you criminals are made of," He laughed, tormenting my ears with taunting echoes. "After all, this is my game with my rules." I was being tugged away by my partner, who shouted curses at me that I couldn't understand or focus on. "Your lives will always be dispensable." ***** Claire and Raven have been best friends since childhood. They get arrested together, they break the law together, they get drunk together, and they would probably get married, together! When a new pawn has been placed on the game board, it is not only them who is at risk; it is now everyone they have ever contacted. Sacrifices need to be made, people need to be captured or killed just so they can stay above water. Claire and Raven learn that none of their plans will work, and that forbidden love was always a string tied into their relationship.

His Luna (HumanxWolf) | ✔ by NehaDarcy

| Highest rank #1 in Werewolf | Completed+Edited (This is only the first draft so there might be some mistakes here and there.) Spin-off to His Luna: The Prodigal Descendant * "A Wolf will be born so in time, To be mated to a woman who will be a human-- The human who can be a boon or a bane-- She will either bring the entire Wolf race together Or tear all the ties between them apart." It was a gory war--the place in complete ruins and chaos. A blood curdling scream was heard in the distance followed by wails of pain and desperation. The entire battleground was painted scarlet with the munted corpses littering the field. Amongst it all, there was a woman, unlike the rest surrounding her. She was maddened by her love and passion that left her bleeding as her body succumbed to the wound and she fell limp in her Mate's arms. The Alpha was driven into insanity as he held on to his unmoving Mate's frail body. The world seemed to collapse around him as he could see the life fading from the love of his life's eyes. The smile of content on her lifeless face, haunting him, taunting him as all he could do was scream for her to return to him. How will their lives turn out when destiny brings together an egoistic, arrogant but somehow charming Christian King and a headstrong and equally proud woman, Tiara Summers who has quite a few secrets in her bag? * Do not promote your works on my story.

Sense of Self by PowersTheTiddyGoblin

Evanora Ravenscroft comes from a long line of a dying race, thought to have long been driven to extinction: the witch race. Fabled in the mage community to be a distant legend of vile, curse ridden demons, the last time a witch was encountered, the world was plunged into the dark ages. But Evanora knows the truth of her people, and she's running out of time. Born as normal, loving people, witches have a rich culture and traditions spanning generations. Bonding for life as teens and having children early in life, they live their lives to the fullest before they begin to forget their families and friends. Most witches become complete amnesiacs by the time they're 25. Along with this amnesia, witches begin to generate and pour magic from their bodies. And continue to do so until they die. The adult amnesiac stops needing sustenance and becomes a purposeless roaming force of nature, drifting where its whim takes it and unintentionally affecting everything in its path, whether positively or negatively. Now 21, Evanora, is running out of time. Each day, the image of her parents wandering into the forest to never be seen again grows fainter, and accidents keep happening around her. In all her race's history, no witch has ever avoided their fate. Her resources are limited, and she's desperate to find a way to stop the corruption. But the only source of knowledge that may help her is the world renowned academy for mages, the magic users that nearly drove her species to extinction... Can she save herself the fate of becoming an empty shell of chaos, or will she lose herself trying to do the impossible?

The Witch's Potion A Magical Marriage Match by w3c1mfw5

Known as the "Compatibility Marriage Act," it mandates that individuals must wed those with whom they share the greatest magical affinity, regardless of social status or age. Enter our protagonist, a young witch specializing in pharmaceutical magic. Little does she know that her life is about to be turned upside down by this very law. The government's matchmaking algorithm pairs her with a court magician who is not only significantly older but also towers over her in both status and height. As fate would have it, this unlikely duo finds themselves thrust into a whirlwind of conflicting ideologies and contrasting worldviews. The young witch, blissfully unaware of anything beyond her beloved potions, suddenly faces a reality far removed from her comfort zone. Meanwhile, her betrothed, a talented yet misunderstood magician, grapples with his own inner demons and a desperate need for recognition. Together, they embark on a journey of self-discovery and mutual understanding. As they navigate the choppy waters of their arranged union, they begin to uncover hidden depths within themselves and each other. Will their differences prove insurmountable, or will the magic of love find a way to bridge the gap between their worlds?
