In a world where neither Adeline Beckett or her boss Aaron Hotchner thought they deserved happiness, they accidentally stumble across it. But they're sworn to Secrecy.

"Look who the cat dragged in," she directed at Hotch, smirking. To her surprise, Emily watched as her boss' lip twitched in what was suspiciously close to a smile. Now that was unusual. She had never seen that woman before. "Surprised they let you work somewhere you can't shoot your way out or blow something up," Hotch gave back dryly. Emily's eyebrows disappeared further under her bangs, and she exchanged a surprised look with Morgan. It was rare to see Hotch smirk, was he actually bordering on flirting? What happens when an old friend of Hotch turns out to be the new head of a Secret Service Unit in need of help with an investigation? Sparks fly, whiskey gets opened, and killers (hopefully) get caught. (Originally posted on AO3 under my username "sometimesiscribble!)

smut, lust, fluff etc filled one shots of Aaron Hotchner.

The first time Hotch sees you - young, brazen and violent - it's at an old trailer and he's there with Gideon to question you about your father's whereabouts. Someone who the BAU have pegged as their unsub. The second time he sees you - they're back to question the family of an unsub's victim. And you're different: elegant, eloquent and all sharp edges now well-rounded and polished. And married to a billionaire. The third time it's inside the interrogation room, after they find the corpse of a second man looking eerily similar to your missing husband. --- (Elevator pitch: reader may be a serial killer and Hotch is certain you murdered your husband. Chaos and situationships occurr) ---- (this is a slow build - yes they yearn! enemies to fuck buddies to enemies to lovers! - and implied sexual content) so much murder! so much yearning! #147 in enemies to lovers 😌😌 I do not own Criminal minds, the characters and the story!*
