FEATURED | #1 in whodunnit  for over four weeks | #1 in the third chaos award 

When you can't trust in angels, you turn to the devil for a pact.

Alessandro Steno is Venice's living legend. Trying to wash old blood off his hands, he hunts the city's worst criminals. Investigating the grotesque deaths of famous artists, Alessandro finds himself face to face with a ghost story. An assassin known as 'The Reaper'. And in the shadows of the dead hides something bound to destroy his city and plunge the world into chaos. In dire need of allies, Alessandro finds out beggars can't be choosers...

A stranger offers him a deal: he will kill the Reaper, if the inspector let's him uncover the secrets of his father. Alessandro just might have to team up with one demon to defeat another...

A girl hellbent on revenge for the murder of her friend won't stay home in the safety of wealth and marriage. Wanting to prove herself at all costs, she might just be the Reaper's easiest catch...

Can liars find the truth? How long can they fight all fronts -- themselves, each other, the world? Who can beat death's game?

44 parts Complete Mature
Book One of the Haunted Lover's Duo "People in the real world always say, when something terrible happens, that the sadness and loss and aching pain of the heart will 'lessen as time passes', but it isn't true. Sorrow and loss are constant, but if we all had to go through our whole lives carrying them the whole time, we wouldn't be able to stand it. The sadness would paralyze us. So in the end we just pack it into bags and find somewhere to leave it." - Fredrik Backman, My Grandmother asked me to tell you she's Sorry. Still wrought with grief from the loss of his older brother, Eden Moir seeks out Malcolm Reed, the best SN lawyer currently working in the surface world. His intentions are mere justice for his brother, who was wrongfully murdered by hunters. Eden has been juggling work and home life, or more like drowning in it, and is in a constant struggle with the tight budget that is being washed away by his mother's drinking problem. Yet, Eden yearns for more as he gets to know Malcolm. He desires for the witch to be more than his lawyer, despite how detrimental it could be for his brother's case. Love is worth the risk, after all, right? Sadly, Malcolm might not see things the same way, looking at the bigger picture, not wanting to cost those around him the career he has built all for his own selfish wishes. But, in the end, there is something far worse at play, lurking beneath the shadows, waiting for the right moment to pounce... waiting for the right opportunity to dredge up the agony within Eden's heart once again.
Reap the Earth at Which you Stand [boyxboy] by FKNichols17
55 parts Complete Mature
Growing up in chaos isn't simple for all. Not many could cope. They would struggle and kick, but ultimately drown. However, for Dakota, that was his normality. Torturing. Maiming. Killing. That was his life, the life of a hunter. The Arizona line was elusive, written fame in the lore of hunters, and infamy for their prey. They were the best. No one could ever compare to their skills, their abilities, their ruthlessness. But Dakota was something else. His siblings might have learnt to enjoy the hunt, well most of them anyway, but Dakota didn't. There was always something missing for him, something he was waiting on. Silent and everlasting hope. A promise had been made to him, the day his twin brother was stolen, taken by the enemy, plucked right from the very home the Arizonas had grown up in. A promise of something better, something that he might actually want in his life. Now, almost sixteen years later, something was coming. A change was begging to be found. Maybe it would be for the best. Maybe Dakota would finally find that certain something that had been missing his whole life, something to fill the dark and fractured abyss that ached and wailed within. But nothing was ever that simple. Because, of course, the promise that had been made to Dakota would never be anything plausible for him, anything tangible to have and to hold. He had been promised a new life, by the greatest enemy of them all. It wouldn't be easy. Not with his family still clinging to his heels, the teachings of blood and violence burnt into his mind. No, leaving them behind wouldn't ever be easy. Then again, staying with them would only bring his inevitable death. Why not take the chance to die happy? After all, out of the ashes, a phoenix will rise...
Mr & Mr Hitman by TheLoreScribe
69 parts Complete Mature
Completed ✔️ Would you kill for love? The world is a cruel place. Evil eyes roam around dark alleys. Malicious hands trace over the corpses of the people they killed. All of that under the clueless minds of innocent crowds, unaware that those thrown in rivers or burnt to ashes, could potentially be their relative. Samuel Thompson is your average carefree, funny and sometimes clumsy guy, but the façade he puts on doesn't change the fact that in the ignorance of his friends, he brings doom into people's life. Well, that was his job afterall. A hitman. But that same hitman didn't know that his life would shift around after a man moved into his apartment, wavering his feelings between friendship and love. Cameron Taylor started a one-sided rivalry with the main character, staying up at night, fuming at the very thought of his name, for whatever reason. But that same rivalry later turns into a passionate attachment where bloodshed was required to live on. And both of them were ready to take this oath. Warning: This book contains murder, abuse, and torture parts with sometimes explicit details and foul language. Viewer discretion is advised. [Started: 27/03/21] [Finished : 05/08/23]
