A University | Book III A Different Version
(This is A ReTell of Book I, with a different story and writing style.)

Title: The Game of Life
 
Logline:  On a remote island university, a girl with the magical ability to bring her drawings to life discovers her creations are venturing into the real world, forcing her to confront her extraordinary power.
 
Synopsis:
 
Mari McClaire, a student at the prestigious A University, nestled in the heart of a technologically advanced smart city on a secluded island, possesses a remarkable secret: a magical touch.  Anything she touches, from inanimate objects to her vibrant illustrations, springs to life.  Unaware of the extent of her abilities, Mari lives a seemingly ordinary life amidst the breathtaking natural beauty surrounding the island, relying on the university for all her needs since daily commutes home are impossible. 
 The island's unique currency, the Curax, adds another layer to her already extraordinary existence.
 
One day, one of Mari's whimsical drawings, a mischievous sprite she created during a late-night study session, unexpectedly appears in her dorm room.  The sprite, initially shy, reveals a whole world of other creations, all living and breathing in a hidden dimension connected to Mari's art.  Mari's world is shattered as she grapples with the reality of her magical power and the implications of her creations interacting with the human world. 

How will Mari control her powers? What other fantastical beings await her? And what challenges will she face as she navigates this magical world she unknowingly created?

Olivia Scott, a New York girl who thought her life was edging perfection with a loving family, luxury, and friends. But little did she know it was far from fairytale, and let alone ordinary. Born with the powers far more dangerous than any, she was led to believe her life was anything but special. Living in a world of deceit, she was adamant on the danger she was marked since the day she was born. But no secrets can remain untold. And she was bound to know them. She was bound to change everything with the help of a mysterious man who suddenly barged into her life. With a touch of fate, a sprinkle of emotions, and bounties on their head, the two hearts found each other as they fought together on a life-altering adventure in their journey to save their people and their world. ~~ "Why are you telling us this anyway?" She asked the man from the future, as he leaned back to the shelf behind him after finishing his explanation. His emerald-colored eyes met her blue ones as he pierced through them seemingly searching far deeper than his eyes could offer. He had longed for her, every minute, every hour and day, though it was far more than he could ever comprehend. But just seeing her in front of him, alive and young, it was all payed for. "Because the last time, I couldn't save you as you died in my arms. And I'm not letting it happen again." ~~ A dark secret kept with a birth of murder, a life of façade, a leap from the future, and a love bound to break. The heaven and earth will meet and only she can hold them in between. Will it be enough?

[Vᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ 1 - Cᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ] Evelyn White was born with a gift - or rather, a curse: the first time she touches someone, she sees when and how that person dies. Meeting new people is sickening. Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks. It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.

Hi Readers, Before you read this book, I just wanted to say that I am currently in the process of rewriting this story. Changes, whether they are big or small will be applied and things will most likely be cut. I am looking towards making this story more consistent since its not evident in the first draft. I hope that you will continue to support this story nevertheless of the changes made. Kindest Regards, Christine *** Prologue "She's here! We've found her!" The girls parents came racing over to the river bank that separated the two werewolf packs. "She's not breathing! Why isn't she breathing?!" The man pushed the woman out of the way gently and leaned down to check the young girls breathing. He put one hand on the girl's chest and started compression. He checked the girl's breathing again and continued with compression. The girls started to cough up river water. The man pulled her swiftly to her side so that she could expel the rest of the water out through her mouth. "Oh, honey!" the woman gathered the girl up in her arms and squeezed. The girl looked around disorientated. There were strange men and men from her own pack standing around her. "What happened?" She murmured. The woman looked down at her daughter with tears flowing down her face. "You nearly died." *** *Check out the rest of the prologue for more* #1 HigherPower #1 EpicBattles 2# Flames 2# PackMates 36# Power Copyright © All Rights Reserved 2020 NeoNixButterfly21/Christine Copyright © All Rights Reserved 2021 NeoNixButterfly21/Christine Copyright © All Rights Reserved 2022 NeoNixButterfly21/Christine ~ All chapters hereafter are protected by copyright.

I bit my tongue, regretting that remark. "The other girls can't possibly compare to my pretty girl." He ignores the question, his eyes scanning my face for any signs of a reaction to his charm. "My lovely.." He pulled my arm towards him. I felt a slow kiss on the back of my hand. "Sweet.." then another on the other hand. "-golden heart girl." He looked up through his eyelashes. I stay silent as I looked around the room, avoiding eye contact. He placed his free hand on my waist, the other still holding my hand. "Shall I call them over while I have you bent over this bed?" He says planting a kiss on my stomach, going lower each time. I run my free hand through the back of his hair, gently pulling his head back slightly, forcing him to look back up at me. He had a dangerously evil smile on. I knew my cheeks were going red, I pushed him away and rushed towards the the door. "You always do this." I mumble quietly, trying to catch my breath which I lost in the heat of the moment. "Would you be lying to me if you said you didn't like it?" He replied, walking over to me. I kept my mouth shut. ~ ~ ~ Most confusing Love V/ triangle trope you'll ever find¡¡ Sequels out!¡ !!Inspiration from Nikkireadw!!

She felt his surprise. She felt his light extinguish as he died. Then there was nothing. Nothing. Her head was swimming like it was underwater. She couldn't move. She couldn't move. Her vision blurred, a man was speaking but she couldn't hear his words. She felt the sword in her chest, but it wasn't there. He killed him. He killed him. Breathe. Did she stop? Breathe. The man, she could hear him speaking. What was he saying? Breathe. She inhaled a deep breath. And another. Then another. Things started to clear. "Breathe. That's right," the warrior coaxed. She started to take another settling breath, and his face came more into focus. The first thing she noticed was his piercing green eyes. She had never seen eyes quite like that before. She stared into them, mesmerized. He mimicked a breath and she took it with him. She was coming back. "I will not hurt you," the man kneeling before her promised. Anna knew better than to believe him. What was it he had said? Oh. "You...you said...you said 'no witnesses'." She was shaking violently. She took another deep breath.

[Started Writing : 3rd August, 2023] "What do you want from me Alex? I gave you what you wanted. Now what else do you want?" I whispered when he won't move his six feet tall body away from mine. The delicious and inebriating scent of Alex tingled my sense making me want to roll my eyes and get lost in him. But I can't hurt myself anymore. My eyes stared at his forest green eyes which was making me more weak emotionally and physically what I was already before. The famous sinister smile spread on his lips making me clenched my legs together. Even in this situation he is wetting my vagina in a sinister way. My heart was hammering in an insane way as if in some few moments I was going to have a heart attack. He pressed his hard muscular body against mine, dipping his head on my shoulder while sniffing my hair like some wild animal. "Yes my Anna, you did what I wanted but one thing is still left." His voice was smooth like butter but the sensation that he released with that husky tone could drive anyone crazy. "What?" I whispered, I was scared to even make a noise. "It's you Anna. It's you." Anastasia wants nothing but to get out of the hell hole called 'her life'. They say study hard and then you can earn money and have a good life. But despite having a degree in hands she was still jobless. When life was giving her bitter test then when a devil showed up at the door of her heart, dressed like an angel. The devil wants nothing but a favour from her while promising her everything she wants. Morally grey. That's the definition to construe Alex Vesper. Strict, rude, emotionless, focused and evil. He wants nothing but revenge from a certain someone who might have scratched his ego a little bit. And at that time Anastasia was the best option for him.
