Magic secret. Hunting a mythical beast. And a love worth risking.

Seventeen-year-old Margaret Welty lives in an old mansion on the outskirts of the city. Her mother, an alchemist, recently went in search of the missing element to create the philosopher's stone.

One day, Margaret sees a white fox on the threshold of her house. The appearance of an ancient mythical beast means that the Hunt will soon begin. Margaret must be defeated - this is the only way to return her mother home.

Legend says that the only way to kill a fox is through alchemy. Therefore, when Wes Winters, her mother's student, arrives at the mansion, Margaret turns to him for help. To win the hunt, they will have to learn the secrets of dark magic, which is much more dangerous than one might imagine.
