Alice and the Hidden Gift: Water's Whisper
Alice's first day as a forensic investigator at the Enclave of Arcane Affairs takes a dark turn when she's assigned a case that defies logic-a young woman found dead with no signs of foul play, yet something about it feels deeply wrong. Alice possesses a secret-an unheard-of ability to "read" water emotions, sensing echoes of psychological and emotional states through blood. It makes her the perfect investigator for cases that don't add up, but in a world where magic is common yet her gift is not, keeping it hidden is just as crucial as solving the crime. As Alice digs deeper, the case unearths chilling ties to a past she thought was buried. Forbidden magic, tangled secrets, and a web of lies threaten to pull her under. And then there's Raen, her enigmatic and dangerously captivating supervisor-a man who seems to know more than he lets on. With the whispers of water guiding her, Alice must make a choice: trust her gift and carve out a place in a world that may never accept her, or follow the murmur of secrets down a path from which there is no return.
