Jack Hansard is the man who can sell you anything. Luck in a bottle, fame in a box, dreams on a leash, you name it: if he doesn't have it, he'll convince you he has something better. He's a trader on what's known as the Black Market - the occult Black Market, that is. If you're in need of that extra special something to curse your ex-lover or win your fortune, Hansard's the man to go to. Just make sure you check the 'best before' date on anything you buy.
This is Season 1 of the Jack Hansard short story series - each Episode is a separate story, but follows an overarching plot much like a TV series. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!

Make It a Double Play on the Rocks
Jack Bourbon used to be a cop. Now he's just a private investigator with a flask in one pocket, a smartass remark in the other, and a case file full of people who lie for a living. Magic City isn't normal. The mascot of the minor league baseball team turns up dead in his own costume. A husband's cheating scandal spirals into something darker. And a mysterious woman in red keeps showing up just when things get weird. Jack's not the kind of guy who believes in curses, demons, or destiny. He believes in whiskey, gut instinct, and ignoring restraining orders. But the deeper he and his partner Ruby dig, the stranger the case gets-and the more the city itself seems to push back. Ruby keeps her theories to herself. Jack keeps charging ahead. One of them understands what's really happening. Darkly funny, sharp as a broken bottle, and soaked in bourbon and bad decisions, Make It a Double Play on the Rocks is detective noir with a supernatural twist-and one hell of a curveball.Concluida
The Wrong Miracle
"What voodoo stuff did you give me, you Bokor?" The tunnel that his loud shout created in my ears is not far from competing with Laerdal tunnel. I frowned at him and gave him a pouted angry scowl. "That is called a charm. A charm is an object that can help you with your wishes." "My wish was to win the bid for the project. Then why did my opponent win it?" Huh? His opponent won the bid. Shit! Did I mess up again? Not possible right?! Someone did win the bid so the charm did work its part. I looked at the angry handsome devilish gentleman and scratched my head awkwardly. "Your wish was to win the bid. You did not say who should win the bid. So, the charm did its magic, you cannot blame me for your incomplete explanation." Looking at the man before me, if I weren't a beautiful, adorable and an attractive girl, he would've surely stomped me a hundred feet into the ground. Too scary! Zephyra Quinn Virelle, Quirky, goofy, and always a little bit out of sync, she was a descendant of an ancient tribe, skilled in creating amulets with unexpected results. Intended to bring health, love, or fortune, she somehow always manages to give away the wrong one-creating chaos wherever she went. Despite her constant mix-ups, her warm heart and wild charm made her impossible to resist. Idris Cruz Valen, billionaire business mogul, was the definition of control and precision. He didn't believe in magic or fate-until a quirky fortune teller handed him an amulet that would change his world, whether he liked it or not. Follow the journey of a misshaping modern magical magician and ruthlessly principled business mogul, filled with chaos, a little love, a bit of fun, a great level entertainment and a lot more... chaos. ~*~*~*~*~*~Concluida

UNDER HIS CONTROL
"It's funny how a small, foolish belief can either bloom into something that brightens your life... or destroy it entirely. That's exactly what happened to me- the boy who everyone looked at as if he were bad luck, a curse, a sin that should've never existed in this already damned world. But what happens when you start believing it yourself? When you're forced to witness the terrifying sight of a corpse in the pitch- black darkness? It didn't end there. Because of that so-called bad luck... I met you. You became my bad luck. You became my eternal curse. ⚠️Content warning: This story explores dark and sensitive themes.
