You here forever or temporary?

He was chaos in the shape of a man. And she was the only peace he ever wanted to keep. Kingston "Kash" Vaughn isn't just misunderstood-he's unmedicated, unhinged, and unforgiven. Diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia after witnessing his mother's murder, Kash walks the line between genius and madness, street legend and broken boy. He doesn't trust people. Doesn't believe in peace. And he damn sure doesn't believe in love. Until her. Rai'Lynn "Rai" Tate is used to saving everybody but herself. As a crisis center worker, she's been trained to handle the darkest minds-but nothing prepares her for Kash. Their connection is magnetic, twisted, and immediate. He sees her, obsesses over her, needs her like air. And the scariest part? She needs him right back. What starts as therapy turns into obsession. Passion turns into control. And love? Love becomes a war. Because when the voices in his head grow louder... She's the only one he'll listen to. But what happens when the thing you love most is the same thing that might destroy you?

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.

Everybody in Chicago knows Dr. Amaris Alvarez. They know the surgeon. The gifted hands. The impossible surgeries. The spotless reputation. They don't know where he goes when the scrubs come off. Amaris has spent years perfecting the separation between the life he chose and the one he inherited. In one, he's trusted to open a man's skull and put him back together. In the other, men twice his age wait for him to speak before they make a move. Two lives. Two different kinds of blood on his hands. And only one rule. Never let them touch. Then Cataleya Reyes walks into his operating room. As one of the newest faces training under Chicago's most respected surgeon, Cataleya knows exactly what she's supposed to do. Watch. Learn. Keep up. Getting close to Dr. Alvarez was never part of the plan. Neither was realizing that the quiet, calculated man behind the surgical mask feels strangely familiar. Months later, an invitation brings Cataleya into a private world she was raised to never speak about. A world of powerful families, old alliances, whispered names, and men who don't introduce themselves because everyone already knows who they are. That's where she sees him. Not Dr. Alvarez. Amaris. And suddenly, Cataleya understands why her brother already knows his name. The man she has spent months standing beside in an operating room isn't trapped in the criminal world surrounding them. He sits at the head of it. Cataleya has secrets of her own. Amaris has an empire built on his. And somewhere between the operating room and the underworld, they make the mistake of becoming the one thing neither of them can afford. Important to each other. Because in Amaris Alvarez's world, people don't come for the king first. They come for what he loves. THE DEVIL WEARS SCRUBS Some men are trained to save lives. Some are raised to take them. Amaris Alvarez was taught to do both. Started: June 24, 2026 Ended:

Growing up between Miami grit and New York ambition, she knows the rules of the game: never trust too easily, never get too comfortable, and never let your guard down for a man.

A story of heat, hustle, and heartbreak-where the line between power and vulnerability blurs, and love feels as intoxicating as the city itself.
