Behind the badge of NCIS Director Jenny Shepard lies her most classified secret: a thirty-year marriage to her ex-boss now top agent, Leroy Jethro Gibbs. Together they've raised three remarkable children while maintaining separate professional facades. Their youngest daughter Lizzie has followed her own path into the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, where her reputation as a brilliant yet intimidating profiler precedes her. But Lizzie harbors a secret of her own-a deepening relationship with her father's Senior Field Agent, Tony DiNozzo. As personal and professional worlds begin to intersect, the careful compartmentalization that has protected the Shepard-Gibbs family for decades threatens to unravel. When unexpected circumstances force hidden truths into the open, the revelation sends shockwaves through both agencies. In a world where they've been trained to trust no one, the ultimate test may be learning to live without secrets. But old habits die hard, and some truths are more dangerous exposed than concealed. This NCIS and Criminal Minds crossover explores how the families we choose and the secrets we keep shape who we become-and what happens when those secrets can no longer be contained.

For fifty years, Asteria survived. She survived the loss of her brother. She survived the war. She survived becoming the person everyone leaned on. But somewhere between duty and grief, she forgot how to live. She forgot how to fly. Then Azriel arrives at the mountain house half-frozen, wounded, exhausted-and everything begins to change. In the quiet of storms and candlelight, among shadows that adore her and wings she no longer remembers how to use, Asteria begins finding herself again. And somewhere between shadows, storms, and stolen moments, Azriel realizes there was never going to be an escape from her and why his shadows chose her centuries ago. A fantasy romance set in the Night Court. Slow burn. Mutual pining. Healing. Star magic. Wing care. Shadows with opinions. And a love story written softly between the stars.

She had never felt such attraction to anyone before him yet he didn't even bat an eye to her. ⚔ Garrick Tavis a brooding, duty-orientated, and rather brutal third-year with a body sculpted to perfection by Gods. Romance was out of the question for him, when he needed an outlet- he'd simply find a one-night stand but things all change when a certain first-year approaches him with such innocence and a warm smile that cracked his serious exterior and ruined him for anyone else.
