Eve is a successful romance book author and forever singleton who doesn't believe that romance could exist in real life. But with her last novel flopping in the market, she felt like she put herself in a rut that she can't get herself out of. On the day that her publisher threatens to drop her as an author, she finds an ad online about a guy selling an entire romantic wedding package at half the price. The catch, buyers should be genuinely in love with each other. 
In Eve's head, it sounds like a good idea to trick the seller, a practical business journalist, into thinking that she has a boyfriend whom she loves very much. Her heart says otherwise.

"I have to get away from here!" Maya, Estella's personal maid immediately came with a big luggage carrying Estella's stuff. 

"We can use the secret escape route if you want, Your Highness." Estella nodded as she changed into a civilian outfit prepared by Maya to disguise herself.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
"Find her and bring her back alive! Let she knows who is in charge." The finality in Adrian's tone brings a darkness that he will forever regret.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

"I never seen you here before. I'm Luca." He approached Estella with a warm smile, something that she never experienced from her own husband.

"I'm Estella." She blushed and immediately looking away from him, wary that she may have reveal herself to this strange man.

"Your Ma- ah Estella, I see you have know Luca." Maya interrupted the awkward exchange between the pair. She smiles knowingly to them as she walked away unnoticed

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Tell me Adrian. Have you ever, even once treats me like your own wife?!" The formality between the rulers of the kingdom is gone and the only thing left is a pained wife and a regretful husband.

"Forgive me."

"I would never." 

How Adrian wishes he could turn back time...

She cares for him but hates the way she does.  He is always on her mind since that day. But in contrast, he hated her for that. She wants to make it up to him but he avoids her like dirt.

~ White family villa ~

Later in the evening, Sarah and Aiden are in his room. 
Two of them spend few hours in the morning working on tasks related to White corp. During the day, they are training security personnel, and after dinner Sarah and Aiden are digging up information about the 'King' person. 
They could not find anything related to King, because fake name was used to purchase that unit 12B across the hall of Sarah's and Aiden's apartment in Fairfield. But they did track the account which was used to pay the apartment. The same account was used for purchase of 12A unit several years back, and then it was sold to Stella last year. 
Owner of the account was non-existent. It was a fake name. However, they still found some leads, because that account was also used for purchase of several other properties. One of them is a warehouse in Chicago suburbs, while others are residential.
Sarah was looking at information about properties purchased with that bank account and was thinking aloud: "We can watch these apartments, but I doubt we will find anything useful. All of them are similar to the 12B unit from Fairfield. Apartments are in buildings without video surveillance. If it's not for Eve, we would not capture King at all. But the warehouse might have some clues…"
"You think that we should go and check it out?", Aiden guessed her thoughts.
Sarah nodded. "These photos from street show that there is a video surveillance. But whatever they have set up, it's closed circuit, so unless we go there, we can't see what is going on. We should go and check it out. We might find some other clues." 
She saw that he is not enthusiastic about this, probably because he does not want to put her in danger, and she was right. However, Aiden understands that it's important to find out about King and organization behind him, and this warehouse is currently their only clue.
They agreed to go together and investigate that warehouse in Chicago area. When Jeff and JoAnna come back to Reno, they will discuss this and come up with a plan. They want to do this, but they want to keep their safety as priority. So, they need a plan. A detailed plan which will ensure that they don't rush into danger recklessly. 

~ Los Angeles ~

At the 22nd floor of White corp. large mirror panels are being installed on the walls in one of the offices which is close to CEO's office. 
Mirrors are in place, and few people are cleaning them, making sure they are spotless.
Jeff is observing installed mirrors with a smile on his face. Why is he smiling? Because he will use this office as a dance studio. Dance instructor will come here secretly and teach him moves which he will use on his wedding day to swoop JoAnna off her feet. For a dramatic effect he is going for, this needs to be kept a secret from JoAnna. 
He was all giddy while imagining her expression when he asks: 'Mrs. White, can I have this dance?'... and she will be like 'Sure...' but she will think it will be just slow left-right thing they usually do... but then he will twirl her and do stuff... and she will be all like: 'Ahh! My fabulous husband!'… and he will be: 'Yes, yes... that is me!' 
Jeff was not aware that now he had a goofy smile on his face, and he was shaking his head slightly.

Steve was reluctant to interrupt whatever daydream his Boss was having, but they had a tight schedule, and he needed to ask him something. He cleared his throat few times to get Jeff's attention. It took a while for Jeff to notice him.

"Boss, I narrowed down list highly recommended dance instructors to four.", Steve showed his tablet to Jeff.
"Hire them.", Jeff didn't even look at the tablet. He was enjoying his daydream, and Steve interrupted it.
"Which ones?"
"All of them." Jeff looked at Steve like he is not understanding something obvious. "I want one class in the morning and one in the afternoon. Every day, whenever I'm in. Make sure that at least one of those instructors is available. And follow up if I need any special clothes or shoes for my lessons. But I don't want to wear those tight fitting pants. Also… you will be responsible that they come here with my private elevator. I don't want to risk Anna to find out about this in advance."
Jeff saw Steve nod and then added. "Did you send those house listings to Anna?"
"Yes, Boss! To Miss Hill and to Bridgette." Steve paused for a second and added: "And those three to Aiden as well."
Jeff gave a small nod and focused back on the mirrors. 
He was getting impatient with slow progress on house hunting, so he looked at available listings and saw that really there is nothing satisfactory. Jeff decided to call few people, and within an hour he got dozen addresses with photos and property descriptions. He is not sure (and does not care) how come those homes suddenly became available, but he confirmed that they are not publicly available for sale.
Since Aiden told him that he and Sarah are looking for a house, he also checked if some might be interesting for them and decided to send them three listings. If they end up getting any of it, that means that he will be in the same city with his brother. Jeff likes that idea. It's been a long time since he and Aiden lived in the same city. And he is confident that JoAnna would love to have Sarah close by.
Smile crept back on Jeff's face while he thought how he will twirl JoAnna on the dance floor, and how she will be surprised and happy.

~ Downtown Los Angeles, coffee shop ~

JoAnna and Bridgette are having coffee and chatting. There is number of bodyguards around them. JoAnna is used to them now.
They got message from Steve with links to information on dozen of houses which Jeff selected.
"Wow! They are all great!", Bridgette exclaimed as they went through information on the properties and photos available. "Do you want to check them out now?"
"There are too many…", JoAnna frowned. She already checked so many houses in last few weeks and is tired. "How about we look them up on the map? All of them are on large lots and spacious. The smallest house has eight bedrooms and ten bathrooms. So size is not a problem. If we are not happy with finishes, we can always redecorate. Let's see which ones are good in terms of location and use that to narrow down choices. Location is most important."
They found one house which is in the city limits, relatively close to White corp. and LA Medical Center. 
"When can we see it? We should call the realtor.", JoAnna ended with a mumble. She does not like that realtor lady very much.
"Steve said in email that we don't need realtor. We just need to go there and say that Mrs. White came to see the property…", Bridgette laughed. "Your future husband is something."
"Yes, he is.", JoAnna grinned. "He is the best."

Sarah Hill is an introvert who does not want to attract attention. Other than mad coding skills, Sarah knows how to throw a punch. She believes that her biggest problem is the existence of the hacker Omega and her world flips upside-down when the most popular guy on campus approaches her. What does he want? Why her? (Ah, Sarah, that is only the beginning.) 

JoAnna Hill easily makes friends with her bubbly personality. Some call her a mad scientist, but she prefers ‘Dr. Hill’, because that is what she is. JoAnna is an excellent markswoman who can snipe out any target and she is wondering if her prince charming will ever come.

Sophia Hill is the voice of reason, their pillar of support. She is a confident CEO who knows how to get what she wants. Sophia’s degree in law combined with amazing capabilities to analyze the situation and plan ahead make her the perfect strategist (to achieve a goal without ending up in jail). 

This is a story of three Hill sisters who are navigating through challenges while they uncover the complicated story behind their maternal side of the family. And their father is not a simple man either.
Every sister is different, and so are their relationships. 

They all have in common: trust and belief that if they work together, anything is possible.

Excerpt from the novel...

"Do you believe in destiny?", Sarah broke the silence. 
"Destiny?" Aiden didn't expect such a question. 
"Yes. The thing that is meant to happen, and there is nothing you can do to prevent it. And when it does happen, everything feels right." 
"Why would you ask me such a thing?" 
"Until a few weeks ago I would say that there is no such thing as destiny. That we are all masters of our lives and that everything depends on our actions, or lack of it. But I can't help but wonder: why did I not push you away? ... Why does it feel like everything will be OK as long as we are together? ... You are a piece of me that I never knew was missing. Is this destiny?" 
"Mmm... if that is destiny, then I approve it.", Aiden lightly kissed Sarah's shoulder and rested his chin on it.

Zhou Wen's heart skipped a beat as he sensed something amiss. He subconsciously switched to the Inverse Ancient Emperor and used the Demon Dragon True Body. The Six-Winged Guardian Dragon roared and spewed out dragon breath.
Boom!
The blood-colored avatar and Six-Winged felt as though they had been struck by lightning. The blood-colored avatar's hands involuntarily released the Golden Battle God Halberd as his body flew backward. Like a cannonball, they slammed into the mountain wall, producing a large and small hole.
Zhou Wen felt that the blood-colored avatar was seriously injured, but thankfully, it wasn't dead. This time, it wasn't instantly killed by the creature inside the cocoon. Just as he was about to leave the cave, he saw a golden beam flash in front of him. The Golden Battle God Halberd flew over and nailed the blood-colored avatar's body. It penetrated its chest and the game screen instantly turned black.
This fellow is a little too strong. The six-winged seraphim should be much weaker than her, right? Zhou Wen was somewhat depressed. He only wanted to get a drop of blood, but he still ended up being killed.
However, Zhou Wen realized something. His encounter with her this time was clearly different from before. Her body seemed to have grown quite a bit.
When he first came, the creature in the cocoon was still sleeping. She only woke up after he had injured her.
This time, it was obvious that she had completely woken up. Her body had also developed more perfectly. Every time he saw her, she was somewhat different. This was clearly different from the other dimensional creatures in-game.
According to The Thearch, the creatures in the cocoons should be the guardians of the various species. Then, can I drip my blood on the cocoon like John? If I can obtain her approval, will she become my guardian? It looks like she's clearly much stronger than the six-winged seraphim. This thought flashed through Zhou Wen's mind.
However, it was only for an instant. He had many secrets. He definitely could not let an intelligent being who could betray him follow him around 24/7.
Since I can't do it by force, I'll have to sneak an attack. Zhou Wen entered Ant City again, but he had learned his lesson this time. He didn't directly face the creature inside the cocoon.
First, he used the Six-Winged Guardian Dragon as bait. The blood-colored avatar and Demonic Neonate hid in the ant honey pool, silently waiting for an opportunity.
The Six-Winged Guardian Dragon blasted open the white cocoon. The creature inside the cocoon only took a glance at it before it was sent flying.
From the perspective of the third party, it was even more shocking. The powerful Six-Winged Guardian Dragon was already considered a top-notch Mythical creature, yet its huge body was actually blasted away by her gaze.
Zhou Wen and Demonic Neonate didn't sit idle. The blood-colored avatar held the Golden Battle God Halberd and instantly teleported behind the creature inside the cocoon. The tip of the Golden Battle God Halberd was about to touch her back. As long as Zhou Wen thrust it a little further forward, the Golden Divine Light could stab through her skin and cause a drop of blood to drip out.
However, just as Zhou Wen teleported out, he saw the creature turn her head to look at him.
Boom!
Zhou Wen's body flew out like a cannonball. Soon, the game screen turned black again.
Is the guardian really only at the Mythical stage? Apart from The Thearch whose strength is unknown, she's many times stronger than any Mythical creature I've ever seen. Zhou Wen felt that this fellow wasn't as simple as a Mythical creature.
The Six-Winged Guardian Dragon was considered a top-notch Mythical creature. Although it did not have any offensive miracle, it should not have been so easily killed by someone of the same level.
Zhou Wen suspected that the guardian could break through the limits of the Mythical stage. If not, it meant that her skills, Life Soul, and other aspects were already heaven-defying.
After dying twice, Zhou Wen didn't head to Ant City again.
"Thearch, how can the guardian you mentioned last time be contracted?" Zhou Wen sent a probing message to The Thearch.
However, The Thearch didn't reply. He didn't know what she was doing. He hadn't seen her appear recently.
Before Zhou Wen headed to Ant City again, he needed to think of a perfect solution. Making blind attempts was pointless.
I wonder if the crystal mirror transformed from a Sun Beast can reflect her gaze. Zhou Wen thought as he grinded.
Ding!
Suddenly, a strange sound entered Zhou Wen's ears. He turned his head and saw a Companion Egg drop beside the Six-Winged Guardian Dragon. It was a Sun Beast Companion Egg.
Zhou Wen was delighted as he hurriedly went over to pick up the Companion Egg. After hatching it, he had another Sun Beast Companion Beast. Their stats were about the same.
Unfortunately, the crystal mirror was too small. Even with two crystal mirrors, they couldn't completely block Zhou Wen's body.
There are two crystal mirrors. I can try fusion. Zhou Wen decided to give it a try. If he could produce a full-body mirror armor, his entire body would be equivalent to a mirror. Torch Dragon's Bright Torch Vision World would naturally be useless to him.
However, the crystal mirror's compatibility with armor beasts was too low. With a fusion compatibility of about 40%, failure was easy.
Typically, armor is made of metal while the crystal mirror is crystal. Could this be the reason why the compatibility is relatively low? Zhou Wen thought for a moment before heading to the Curse Demon Palace and grinding out a Stone Armor Companion Beast.
He placed them together, and indeed, the compatibility was much higher, reaching 61.
Indeed, this is the case. However, the skills and Life Providence of this Stone Armor are lacking. Most importantly, this isn't a full-body armor. There's no way to cover my whole body. Zhou Wen searched online and discovered that there were quite a number of jade-type Companion Beasts that could become full-body armor.
After looking through a lot of information, Zhou Wen decided to buy a jade armor-type Companion Beast to fuse.
He still had a large number of Essence Crystals. It wasn't difficult to buy an Epic Companion Egg. Zhou Wen decided to head to the Companion Egg shop. Whatever Companion Eggs were online might also be on sale at the local Companion Egg shops.
However, Zhou Wen didn't go to Qin Xiyuan's shop. He had a nagging feeling that there was something wrong with Qin Xiyuan. If he could avoid him, he would rather not interact with him.
Zhou Wen remembered that his classmate, Luo Xuan, owned a Companion Beast shop. Therefore, he contacted Luo Xuan and asked him about jade armor-type beasts.
Luo Xuan said that his shop should have one, but he still needed to take a look at the specific ones before he could tell him in detail. He told Zhou Wen to visit his shop.
When Zhou Wen arrived at Luo Xuan's pet shop, Luo Xuan rushed back.
"Jade armor-type Companion Beasts are considered quite common. Compared to metal and wood armor, the price of the jade armor is relatively cheap, but not by much. After all, you want an Epic Companion Egg." Luo Xuan personally led Zhou Wen to his store to see the jade-type Companion Beast.
"Is there jade armor that can wrap the entire body? It's best if there's no gap at all." Zhou Wen asked as he looked around.
"It's really not easy to find. Jade armor is heavy to begin with. If it's full-body armor, it's inconvenient for movement." Luo Xuan thought for a moment before saying, "However, we do have an Epic Companion Egg like that in our shop, but in terms of price, it might be more expensive than the typical Epic Companion Egg."


1 drop of blood = 1-Up
Other people game overnight, I game overnight and bleed.
Ever since the dimensional storms descended upon Earth, numerous dimensional zones have appeared, bringing with them all kinds of dimensional creatures—Immortals, Buddhas, Devils, Angels, Elves, etc.
Yet, all these strange dimensional zones can turn into dungeon instances on my phone. Other people risk their lives adventuring, I spend all my time gaming.
Monsters drop dimensional crystals that boost stats, imbue new skills, and join me as Companion Beasts. These Companion Beasts fight alongside me or alone, augmenting me with their skills and strength. Rare monsters in real life? I'll just restart the game with a drop of blood to grind it.
I really need a blood transfusion.

Evelyn rushed as she placed the stone in a jewellery pouch she had saved from a Christmas present and ran towards the portal, and clapped her hands.

Evelyn: Hecatia City, Caleste.

The lights she had seen earlier glowed brightly as Evelyn ran through quickly. Now back in the capital city and kingdom of the Hecatia Realms, Evelyn ran out of the Portal Station and onto Spells Parade, and ran down the street, the auburn girl noticed a cafe and ran inside it and towards the counter, where there was a female barista with tattoos and a blue pixie cut hairstyle serving.

Barista: Hi, welcome to the Brews Cafe, what may I get for you today?
Evelyn: Did you see a girl pass by? Blonde hair, pale to fair skin, she was wearing a star jumper and boots? 

Luckily for Evelyn, she had the memory of an elephant and remember anything that she thought of. In some ways, that was a perk of autism, especially now.

Barista: Oh, yeah. I think some girls took her to Lady Hera Hospital.
Evelyn: Where's the Lady Hera Hospital?
Barista: It's on Wand Avenue. Take a map, it's free.
Evelyn: Thank you.

The auburn haired woman walked towards a stand to take a map and leaves the cafe. As soon as she was outside, Evelyn looked t see if anyone was in earshot, but the streets were empty, and the Australian woman spoke softly to herself.

Evelyn: *quietly* Okay, Spells Parade..... go up and turn left on Mirror Drive, then turn right onto Wand Avenue. Claire, here I come.

Evelyn ran in the direction she observed on the map and slowed down as she approached the hospital, which was identified by the huge sign saying LADY HERA HOSPITAL. It looked like any modern hospital in a capital city. Evelyn noticed a doctor and ran towards him.

Evelyn: Excuse me, was a blonde girl admitted here? Claire deLuna?
Doctor: *shakes his head no* No, no one here was admitted here by that name.
Evelyn: She might've had two girls with her? Please, it's important.
Doctor: Look, I don't have time to worry about some kids, okay? I have to heal all sorts of injuries and cure illnesses.

The doctor walked away, making Evelyn growl loudly and angrily as she sat on a bench by the hospital's bus stop.

Evelyn: Where did you go, Claire deLuna?

All of a sudden, the citrine star began to glow brightly, almost burning Evelyn's hand as she yanked it out of her pocket and looked at it.

Evelyn: Claire deLuna's whereabouts.

The star glowed brighter as Evelyn got up and began to walk, following the glowing of the star.

Evelyn: Where are you leading me, little star?

Evelyn walked from Wand Avenue to Potter Lane, where there was a shop with a sign reading CALESTE MAGICAL ANTIQUITIES, the star glowed so brightly, Evelyn had to put it back in the pouch and back in her pocket, before entering the shop to see a kind well-dressed gentleman standing behind a desk.

Owner: Hello, what may I do to assist you today?

He was probably hoping for a sale as it hadn't been visited by a shopper for ages, judging by the dust and cobwebs... at least Evelyn hoped they were forgotten Halloween decorations.

Evelyn: *politely* Would you happen to sell little hand mirrors, the ones you can hold in the palm of your hand?
Owner: Yes! We do sell those. Finally, I've been wanting to sell those little things since I purchased them from a dealer. How many would you like?
Evelyn: Give me... 2. 
Owner: Okay... and would you like them in a pouch? 

This was his big sale of those mirrors. 

Evelyn: *nods her head yes* Oh definitely.
Owner: I've never seen you here before? Which kingdom are you from?
Evelyn: Earth. 
Owner: *looks interested* Oh, Earth. Lovely land, they have some nice stuff there.
Evelyn: Yep. Great land, although this place is trying hard to top that.
Owner: What part of Earth are you from?
Evelyn: Australia.
Owner: Oh, Australia! What is with those hats with the bottle lids?
Evelyn: Keeps the flies away, saves your hands doing all the work with the unofficial Aussie wave. How much?
Owner: $10 dollars.

Evelyn looked at her small purse that she hid on the inside of her jacket pocket her mother had sewn into for safety. Evelyn opened the wallet and was relieved when her mother taught her to keep a small amount of money. The Australian did indeed have ten dollars in her purse and she took it out of her wallet and handed it to the shop owner

Evelyn: You accept Earth currency? It's all I got.

The owner looked at the girl before him and could tell she was distressed, but at least was gracious to still be polite.

Owner: *speaks softly and smiles kindly* Keep your money. It's on me.
Evelyn: Thank you so much. Caleste Magical Antiquities.

Evelyn began of memorise the name for reference and perhaps future shopping. She smiled before walking outside and pulled out one of the handheld mirrors, and looked at it intensely.

Evelyn: Show me Claire deLuna.

The mirror's reflection went from Evelyn's face to Claire, kept unconscious in an abandoned shop front

Evelyn: Show me her exact whereabouts.

The mirror showed a map of Hecatia City, including where Evelyn was and how far away she was from Claire. 10 buildings away. Evelyn sighed and went back inside the antique shop and to the owner.

Evelyn: Hi. Me again. Are there any abandoned shopfronts in this street?
Owner: Yeah, there's one 10 buildings away. It used to be a pawn shop but it was shut after the owner committed theft and accessory after the fact. Why?
Evelyn: My friend is being held there
Owner: I'll notify the Imperial Police.

He grabs a phone and dialling the number for the Imperial Police.

Evelyn: Would you happen to have blueprints? Or anything like that?
Owner: Luckily for you, I'm an L-FAM graduate. Class of '88.
Evelyn: *smiles* That's super helpful, thanks.

The owner, who Evelyn noticed wore a badge with the name Leonard, pulled out a basic oak wand and conjured a blueprint of the pawnshop, tapping his wand on the small mirror as the blueprint now popped onto the mirror's face.

Evelyn: Thank you so much!

Evelyn exited the shop and looked further down Potter Lane.

Evelyn: I'm on my way, Claire.

Meanwhile, inside the pawnshop, Claire was still unconscious, hovering up and down, whilst Erica was searching her bag and pockets, including her wand, whilst Keriana was looking to see if any bystanders were looking in on the abandoned shop front.

Keriana: *gleefully* Six more stones and I will be the Empress.

Erica walked up angrily to her mistress.

Erica: She doesn't have the stone!
Keriana: *yells* What?!
Erica: The Citrine Star is missing! It's not anywhere on her!
Keriana: We need that to get the Grim Grimoire open, you idiot!
Erica: I know, I'm sorry...

The sound of a glass being smashed and a door opening stopped the two villainesses as a familiar auburn-haired young woman entered the room.


After the tragic and unexpected death of her brother, a young woman named Evelyn has her life changed forever when she experiences events that throw her into an entirely new world filled with adventure, romance and of course… magic! 

When she unexpectedly meets a mysterious woman named Claire, and takes her on a surprising journey that reveals parts of Evelyn’s life she never dreamed of, but had been kept from her. 

Evelyn is introduced to a congregation of peculiar looking people with attire that she had never seen before in her protected world.

"Oh, I know you're name, I want to know, What. You. Are." He says placing his hands behind his back. I've seen his brother in action... I know just how powerful these two can be so I need to be careful. This time I hum as I turn and start slowly walking around the outer part of the rotating mirrored floor.
"I guess you could say that I am a star that took a fall and ended up in this world before getting lost in another. I then fell again, only this time... I'm here to stay." I say carefully watching him as I sneak glances at the surrounding mirrors. 
He doesn't have a reflection... And somehow, he's always facing me, no matter where I move. Was he not really here or was this all part of his powers as chaos himself? It doesn't matter. The more I try to make sense of things here, the worse it'll get for me.
He cocks his head to the side and ponders out loud saying "A star... that should be impossible." I nod my head and come to a stop saying "And yet... here I am. I exist when I shouldn't." He's silent for several seconds before chuckling.
"You exist when you shouldn't... much more interesting than him." He says tapping the chin of his white mask. "Him... you've mentioned him before. Who is he and why does he want me?" I ask watching him move closer. 
"He claims that you are his woman... that you ran away to this world. He's summoned my brother and I to help collect you." He says coming to a stop before me. My heart nearly comes to a stop as an old fear threatens to crawl up my throat and choke me.   
He stands before me, looking down at me as he cocks his head to the side asking "Are you his woman?" I push the old familiar fear back down as I slowly say "No" The man continues to watch me as he says "But you are someone's woman."
I nod my head and say "Yes, that's right. How did he summon you two?" He chuckles and says "I never give away anything for free but I've already given you many... what can you offer in return?" This time I cock my head to the side as I look up to him saying "You've asked me questions as well, a clear give and take."
His chuckle deepens as he says "I think I actually like you... Offer me something interesting enough and I might just tell you everything." An insane idea suddenly comes to mind as I say "A contract with me." 
He silently watches me before lifting out his hand saying "Join me for a dance and I will consider your offer." I try my best to internally calm my nerves as I take his offered hand saying "I don't really know how to dance." The second my hand touches his, his reflection can be seen in all the mirrors.
He looks down at our connected hands before slowly looking back up to me. Interesting. The music suddenly changes to a sad, dark tune as he pulls me closer, placing his other hand on my waist while saying "I'm beginning to think you may have more to offer me..." 
I'm waiting for us to start moving but we just remain standing like this in the middle of the rotating mirrored floor as the sad, dark music box song plays its haunting melody. "If I make a contract with you... It will be just me, not my brother." He says, watching me closely.  
I nod and say "No offence, but I don't really care for your brother." He chuckles deep and says "Indeed... neither do I. What will you offer for this contract?" My heart races as I ask "What do you want? If it's something I can agree to, I will accept." 
"Your soul." He says in a low voice making my heart shiver. I slowly shake my head and say "Not for sale, something else." He remains still and because of the mask, I can't tell what he's thinking but he suddenly says "Something of importance then." 
Why does it feel like I'm making a deal with a demon? I suddenly realize that we look like the little figures in a jewellery box. The haunting music and the way we spin in slow motion, looking as if we're dancing but yet, never actually moving.
"I'll offer you my blood, take it or leave it," I say looking up to his white mask. His hands tighten on me, almost painfully as he says "Do you realize that I could take you to him right now? Offer you to him on a silver plater... and help him imprison you. Why don't you offer me your love..."  
I knew deep in my bones that he speaks the truth but I force a calm as I say "But you'd get the short end of the stick by staying with him. I have so much more to offer and you know that to be true. You're after my power, right? But you can't just take it... it has to be offered." He loosens his grip and chuckles again as he says "Pretty and smart... Fine, I accept." 
He suddenly reaches up and cups the back of my neck, pain, unlike anything I've ever felt before shoots down my spine, nearly bringing me to my knees. He says something in a language I've never heard before as the pain continues to grow even more. 
I want to scream, to push him away or even pass out but it was like I was being held, unable to move in any way as the searing pain on the back of my neck starts to spread down my spine, inch by agonizing inch.
His chanting echos around the room in an eerie way as it seems to get louder and louder. The white mask on his face begins to crack before completely snapping in half! The mask falls off, revealing a strikingly handsome face with eerie white eyes and solid black pupils. Long blood-red hair falls past his waist and begins to sway in the wind spinning around us.
The pain continues to crawl down my spine as his eerie white eyes stare into mine, still speaking in that strange language as the house around us begins to crumble. The mirrors around us begin breaking and shattering as the candles above begin falling.
I feel my eyes beginning to glow as I reach up and grab his wrist, digging my nails into his very human-like flesh. Black blood comes rushing out of the spots where my nails continue to dig into him out of desperation. His white eyes begin to glow as he strains to keep chanting. 
If I wasn't mistaken, he was struggling as well. Even though the entire house was falling down all around us, not a single thing hit us. My silver hair starts to float as my skin begins to glow. Hundun's voice becomes strained as his red hair begins to float as well.
The pain is too much! I feel like my mind is trying to break but I grit my teeth and fight to hold on as the pain reaches a new high. What the hell was happening!? Suddenly, a lightning bolt crashes down on both of us, sending us both flying back in opposite directions with an ear-piercing crack of thunder.
I land on cold, wet mud as I struggle to breathe. Cold rain falls down on me and hits my flushed cheeks, feeling like ice. I look up at the dark sky and watch as lightning flashes across it, followed by a loud thundering roll.
Suddenly, red glowing eyes look down at me with worry and fear as Bai Lei reaches out for me. My relief has me tearing up at the sight of him but they instantly mix with the rain as they fall down the sides of my face. 
He's saying something but I can't hear... hell, it's only now that I realize I can't hear anything at all! As if understanding, Bai Lei reaches out and gently touches both my ears. Warm energy is felt like a soft caress before I'm suddenly able to hear the falling rain. 
Bai Lei's fear is visible in his glowing red eyes as he looks me over but when I see Hundun standing over Bai Lei from behind with a murderous look, I quickly say "Don't touch him!" Hundun's eerie white eyes with his black pupils turn to look at me before sneering at me with disapproval. 
Bai Lei quickly turns around and throws his fists out but Hundun catches it with a grunt. A powerful blast has everything around us flying back, including the rain. He was powerful indeed... Hundun sneers again and says "A deity? Annoying... I will not touch you or my contractor." 
Bai Lei's face is a hard mask as he glares at Hundun but after a few seconds he turns around and scroops up my limp body. Everything hurts... I bite my lip to keep from crying out as Bai Lei holds me close. "You nearly killed us both, Deity! You're lucky she told me not to touch you or I'd have already killed you." Hundun says with a low threat.
Bai Lei grits his teeth and turns to say "Touch my woman again and I will kill you, contract or not." Hundun's white eyes flash with anger as Bai Lei turns away and starts walking. The cold rain seeps through my clothes making it feel like the chill was seeping into my bones.
Suddenly, the rain is gone and we're back in our familiar room. Another wave of energy has my red, wet dress replaced by a dry white gown. He always knew me the best... Even my hair was dry as he gently lays me down on the large bed with a worried look.

Thundercloud was the largest settlement in the Storm Province. It was the province's capital and home to the Striking Thunder Sect.

Like the Tang Capital, Thundercloud was built on top of a massive qi reservoir. However, unlike the Tang, the city was not solely inhabited by members of a single clan.

Members of the Striking Thunder Sect came from a variety of backgrounds. The sect was not prejudiced towards those of lower status and allowed anyone in as long as they possessed talent.

While ninety percent of Thundercloud's population was comprised of cultivators, the remaining ten was filled with mortals. Even as a mortal, living near a qi reservoir had it's benefits. Though they did not benefit the same way cultivators did, the mortals of Thundercloud were stronger, faster, and smarter then most other mortals due to constantly being exposed to the energies of the qi reservoir.

Outside the main gate of the city, a young man wearing a white robe stood at attention as two figures walked towards him.

One of the figures was a youth with a dark and terrifying appearance. He had long black hair, violet eyes, slightly pale skin, and radiated a menacing aura that sent shivers up his spine.

Shifting his gaze onto the second figure, the white robed man's eyes relaxed slightly. 

Beside the intimidating youth was a young boy who seemed to have not even reached his teens yet. The boy had a carefree smile and a warm expression that would put the hearts of most people at ease.

The white-robed man subtly released his spiritual sense to gauge the strength of the two visitors. However, before his spiritual sense could analyze them, it dissipated as if it were canceled out by some external force.

[[Damn! It must have been that scary looking fellow. To detect my spiritual sense and then negate it without any flare in spiritual pressure. What is his cultivation?]

"You two! Identify yourselves! Judging by your appearances, you seem to be cultivators, but I do not recall seeing your faces before! State your business!"

Yin Hui walked toward the white-robed man until he was only half a meter away from him. While the man felt slightly intimidated, he did not show it and kept a stern front.

[From what I've learned from the other settlements on the way here, Thundercloud is the capital of the Storm Province. The Striking Thunder Sect is its ruler and every cultivator in the city is a member.]

When the white-robed man released his spiritual sense earlier, Yin Hui intercepted it with his own spiritual sense. He couldn't afford to let anyone scan him with their sense regardless of who they were. If anyone were to find out about his fiend body, he would be branded as a demonic cultivator and swiftly executed.

Until he was strong enough to protect himself, he had to tread with maximum caution.

[By my estimate, this man is only a peak Spirit Waking cultivator. There is no way the Striking Thunder Sect would only leave a person of this level guarding one of the gates. There must be a powerful expert nearby who has yet to reveal themselves.]

"Greetings brother. My name is Yang Xiang and this is my younger brother Yang Yu. We come from a small town in the outskirts and wish to join the Striking Thunder Sect." Yin Hui clasped his hands respectfully.

"I see... More hopefuls from the outskirts desiring to test their luck in the entrance test. However! You should know the fee for new travelers entering the city is a thousand qi crystals each!"

"A thousand qi crystals? You have got to be joking. Even mortals visit this city. How would the general entrance fee be a thousand qi crystals?"

"I'm sorry, but those are the rules. The fee is dependent on the person entering. Even mortals would need to take out a sack of gold just to get through the gate. As for cultivators, a thousand qi crystals is already considered cheap. Usually the price is five hundred more than that."

[Country bumpkins... While there is a fee to enter the city, it only applies to merchants looking to start a business in the city. Normal travelers, especially cultivators hoping to join the sect don't have to pay anything!]

Yu Zhuwa pulled Yin Hui to the side and whispered into his ear.

"Big brother, this guy is definitely lying. He probably is just taking advantage of us because we said we're from the outskirts."

"Then what should we do about it? We can't force our way through him. The Striking Thunder Sect is bound to have someone much stronger than this guy watching from afar. If we cause trouble now, it will only hurt our chances of getting in."

Yin Hui considered showing the man Yu Mingxi's medallion and informing him about his search for Master Tempest, but in the end decided not to. The man at the gate did not seem to be a very high ranking member of the sect given his cultivation. So even if Yin Hui showed the medallion, there was no guarantee that it would help. 

Just as Yin Hui was about to take out treasures to substitute for qi crystals, Yu Zhuwa stopped him.

"Don't worry, I'll handle this." He said with a smile.

After a few minutes, Yin Hui and Yu Zhuwa were inside Thundercloud. 

"Heh, that was easy. In the span of a few minutes, we went from a fee of a thousand spirit stones each, to gaining free entry in addition to a map of the city!" Yu Zhuwa laughed.

"You sure have a way with words... In your previous life you must've been an infamous swindler." Yin Hui joked.

"No idea! I just know that from the moment I was born, I had a natural knack for persuasion and talking! That's why even though I was an orphan from birth, I've never gone hungry or lacked shelter once!"

"Didn't you say that this skill also had a backlash?"

Yu Zhuwa looked down on the ground in embarrassment while scratching his head.

"Well yeah... Normally my clumsiness negates whatever fortune I've obtained shortly after. Even if it doesn't, there is usually some kind of consequence that follows eventually. However! It's never put me or anyone else in serious jeopardy before!"

Yin Hui let out a sigh. He'd already experienced the ups and downs of Yu Zhuwa's 'golden tongue' before, and so far, what he said was true. 

"Let's hope it stays that way... In the meantime, let's check out the city for a bit. We are planning to stay here long term, so might as well get used to the area before we attempt to join the sect."

Around seventy percent of Thundercloud's land was used exclusively by the Striking Thunder Sect. Despite the rest of the population owning only the remaining thirty percent, this was not an issue at all. Even though there were about a million mortals living in the city, they only took up about twenty percent.

The Striking Thunder Sect was quite benevolent towards the mortals and never made any attempts to seize the unused land from them. No one knew the reason for this behavior, but many of the other provinces saw it as a sign of incapability and weakness.

It was a sunny afternoon and the main market district was crowded with people. The district was cut into two halves, one half belonging to the mortals and the other to the immortals. 

Moving straight to the immortal section of the market district, Yin Hui and Yu Zhuwa began to browse the various shops and stalls. The market was very loud as many vendors were shouting offers to attract customers.

"Spirit pills! Two hundred qi crystals each! Guaranteed to boost your absorption of qi threefold with a single pill!"

"Flying swords of varying qualities! Priced one thousand to ten thousand in price! A necessity for an experienced cultivator!"

"Viewing Mirrors! Two thousand five hundred qi crystals each! Though you may think this is a scam, these mirrors have been imbued with a spell that will allow you to gaze upon beauties unobstructed and unseen!"

After pushing past the crowd of people lining up at the Viewing Mirror booth, Yin Hui saw a small stall that was isolated from most of the others.

There were no other stalls around it and the owner was not making any sales pitches to attract customers like the others. Instead, the owner, who was an elderly man with a head full of grey hair, simply sat in a wooden chair with his eyes closed as if he were in deep meditation.

Nothing on the old man's display were very eye-catching or appealing. There were swords, furnaces, and other various trinkets. However, everything looked quite old and rustic. Curious, Yin Hui decided to take a closer look.

"Greetings senior, your stall has caught my attention. Do you have any recommendations or featured items for sale?"

The old man did not open his eyes, but he seemed to acknowledge Yin Hui's presence.

"A thousand qi crystals for an appraisal. If you are deemed worthy of an item, I will give it to you free of charge. If not then you must leave."

Yu Zhuwa, who had just caught up gasped when he heard the old man's statement. Quickly scanning the spread of dusty items, Yu Zhuwa looked at the old man with disgust.

"A thousand crystals for potentially nothing? Are you trying to scam my brother old man?"

"Either give me the crystals or leave. My goal is not to make a sale, but to find these treasures a new owner. The only reason I require crystals is to replenish my energy after each appraisal."

"All of these items you're selling look like junk! Your entire collection probably isn't even worth a thousand qi crystals!"

Yin Hui held Yu Zhuwa back and gestured in apology.

"Forgive my younger brother senior. I believe your words. Your personal temperament and the way you set up your stall is enough to convince me you are telling the truth. I do not have a thousand qi crystals, but I can give you treasures of my own that add up to the fee's price."

Reaching into his bag of holding, Yin Hui dropped a large assortment of weapons and accessories he had plundered back in the wastelands.

The shopkeeper frowned at the collection of equipment before him. While the items Yin Hui offered were definitely equivalent to a thousand qi crystals, he still had to sell them first. 

"Hmph... Instead of payment, this is just giving me more work. How about this? I will appraise you and if you are acknowledged by any of my treasures then I will accept these. If not, you will have to pay me twofold in qi crystals."

Yu Zhuwa smashed his fist against the old man's table.

"Are you out of your mind old man? What kind of deception are you trying to pull on us? Brother lets go! We don't need to deal with this." Yu Zhuwa began to walk away, but stopped when he found out that Yin Hui was not following. 

"Yang Yu. I have a feeling that this senior has an item that will be very useful to me. Please be patient."

Yu Zhuwa shook his head and let out a small sigh.

"Alright... If you feel like its a good idea, then I won't stop you..."

Yin Hui turned back towards the shopkeeper and nodded. The old man pulled out another wooden chair and gestured for Yin Hui to sit.

"Let's begin."

CURRENTLY UNDER HIATUS, POSSIBLE REWRITE IN PROGRESS
-------------------------------------
When Yin Hui was born, the heavens trembled. Out of fear, the primordial gods crippled his clan and himself, stripping them of their ability to cultivate. 

Rendered powerless, his clan was driven to near extinction and Yin Hui was condemned to a life of slavery. After 15 years of torturous servitude, he encounters a stroke of fortune that would change his fate forever, bestowing upon him an alternate method of cultivating. 

With a new lease on life, he exacts vengeance against all who have wronged him, and strives to ascend beyond the primordials!

"To those who have wronged me beware! To those who will wrong me in the future beware! I, Yin Hui, swear to pay back any and all grudges in full!"
