Alessia DeLuca was in desperate need of a change, the SVU was the perfect move. Fresh out of the Chicago PD Intelligence Unit, she has a tough hill to climb to prove herself. Especially to one Rafael Barba, who seems to have already made up his mind about her before even giving her a chance. They irritate each other to no end, but can they resist the magnetic pull they both feel? 18+. NSFW. Explicit language and adult scenes. This story will NOT be canon, because to be quite honest, I just don't have the patience to match everything exactly as people know it. I want my story to feel as fictional as it possibly can, which means many things will be completely new and made up for no reason haha! And he will be the Heavenly bearded Barba, not the clean shaven one, because DROOL. All the main characters DO belong to Dick Wolf. Only my OC and a few additional characters you've never heard of throughout the story are mine. All cases/scenarios between characters are strictly fictional.

Katherine Morgan leaves her emotionally abusive husband and moves from Atlanta to New York after visiting Amanda, her former college roommate. A Barba/original female character fic. Amanda Rollins is her best friend. Nick and Amanda are something. Starts during season sixteen after Carisi joins... Eventual Rollins and Carisi I will reference episodes if I pull from them, and I will deviate from the show at times. Update: I have the ending of this one mapped out which means it should get updated fairly regularly (this doesn't mean I won't get blocked from time to time, some chapters won't take longer than others, or that I won't get distracted by other stories... though I am currently intentionally neglecting some.) I have mixed emotions when it comes to ending this story... I'm excited for what I have planned, but I'm also not ready to let them go yet... which will both speed up and slow down the writing process. ***There will be 65 or 66 chapters depending on how they work out.*** This story is posted by me on AO3 as well. *I'm using screen grabs and other images from The Path because they lend themselves nicely to this story. Also images from SVU... obviously.

Maddox's work keeps her busy, too busy for an actual relationship. This has never bothered her since no one has managed to hold her interest... at least not until now. A Rafael Barba/original female character story. I originally posted it on AO3 under a different title (one I've never really liked) and am rewriting it as I post it here. It started from an idea I was kind of playing with and has an unconventional start, but as I kept writing I really started to like the development of the relationship, so much so, that it become the first story I actually finished. There's smut... lots of smut, fluffy bits too. I've fudged Barba's age a bit because I wanted Maddox to be in her mid twenties and a fifteen year age gap was as large as I was willing to go. It has thirty five chapters and I will work on rewriting them in between new chapters for my other stories. They need a lot of work. The first four were posted at once because that's the point I decided I liked the story enough to originally post it.

Maeve Walsh grabs dinner at a restaurant bar not far from her new apartment in New York, setting an unexpected course for her future in the city. This is a Barba/original female character fic... Liv's in charge... Nick minus the temper... Carisi closer to his character in his first season... Rollins is a little less surly... Fin is Fin... This story is posted by me on AO3 as well... It's ongoing, but I have more chapters complete so I should be able to add here soon.

"𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨𝐲." ~ Marriage was never for love-it was for legacy. A strategy. A performance. And for the Lombardis and the Morettis, it was the most calculated, showstopping alliance of the century. Roman Moretti, Don of the La Cosa Nostra, and Angeline Lombardi, only daughter of the French-Italian Mafia Capo, had been betrothed since her birth --matched to unite two empires under one crown. Hidden from the world, Angeline was raised to be the perfect wife. Groomed. Silenced. Controlled. She learned early that one misstep would strip her of everything-including her name. Everyone's first mistake? They underestimated her. Though no one had ever seen her, the world assumed the Lombardi Princess was a polished doll. Quiet. Disposable. Roman saw the marriage as a formality-another calculated step toward total dominance. He had no plans to love her. No plans to live with her. Just a wife on paper, tucked away from him elsewhere, summoned when needed for appearances. But everything changed the moment he saw her walking down the aisle. She was perfection. Untouchable. She would be his ruin, his weakness, his obsession, his motivation. His everything. But what if that had been her plan all along? Not everything buried stays dead. Not every identity is what it seems. In a world where saints become monsters and monsters are worshipped like gods, Angeline must decide what's worth saving: her bloodline, her love, or herself. ~ -HEA -18+ -Romance/mystery/thriller -No Cheating/OWD -DARK ROMANCE "OMYGOSH. This book was immaculate. I could NOT put it down at all. Every chapter was AMAZING, the writing is shakespears work and each chapter made me laugh, smile, cry so much and this whole thing was a rollercoaster of emotions." -@Sunfloweraate8

Isabella is desperate for her own independence, but her overprotective father stands in the way of her future. When she demands that she attends a University two hundred miles away from her home, her father only has one exception; a bodyguard. Elio is dedicated to his career to honour his late sister, but when he owes a favour to an ex-mafia boss, he takes body-guarding to a completely new level. Isabella is reckless and likes to push her bodyguards limits. Elio has zero patience and a desire to punish his client. When things start to get heated and unexpected feelings get in the way, their forbidden relationship becomes a distraction when Isabella's life is on the line. Elio is desperate to not let down another important woman in his life. But he can't save everyone, including his own bleeding heart. Tropes: - Mafia Romance - Bodyguard - Age-gap (8 years - FMC is 21 and MMC is 29) - Forbidden Love - Brat FMC/Grumpy MMC - Light BDSM (sub/dom vibes) - Size difference (5'4 & 6'6) - University/College Setting - Past Trauma/Healing - ANGST (so much of it)

The marriage was decided in a room that smelled of smoke, blood, and old money. She was never asked. To the world beyond the locked gates, the two brothers were monsters-names whispered in fear, kings of an underworld built on extortion, bodies, and silence. The elder brother ruled with a mind like a blade: sharp, cold, precise. He calculated lives the way others counted coins, and mercy was a language he never learned. The younger brother was worse in a different way-raised without softness, trained without restraint. A beast shaped into human form, a killing machine who understood commands better than emotions. She had never seen the outside world. Never felt sunlight without bars between her and the sky. Her life had been a narrow corridor of obedience and bruises, raised by family who taught her silence before speech and pain before hope. She learned early that surviving meant enduring, that breathing quietly was safer than breathing freely.
