The city is stirring with colour, but for Detective Ethan Brown, the palette always seems to be off...

Integral - Vampire Fantasy Cyberpunk by Adam_Visceral

Polar opposites, two nocturnals must overcome their differences and find a way to survive the blistering light and the engulfing night. Matthias is tranquil and drained of emotion and color. Frank is crass, boisterous, and as full of life as he was before the turning. One is a man without a past, and the other wishes he could forget his. Both are assigned to a strange murder case and must bring one of their own to justice to preserve the peace between the ruling corporations and the vampire council. But as the case turns deadly, the agents are forced to confront a talented young mage, a towering system of corruption, and their own selfish natures. Integral has been completed, and I will add chapters to Wattpad each week or you can download it for free at Amazon.

Mark of the Obsession by GeorgiaCurrie

Detective Celeste Marlowe is no stranger to darkness, but nothing could prepare her for the twisted games of a serial killer determined to make her his greatest audience. In New York City, the murders begin with a single, unsettling detail-a red rose placed next to the body. As the body count rises, the killer's ritual grows more elaborate and chilling. Each crime scene is a carefully orchestrated display, a grotesque masterpiece meant to be admired, understood, and, above all, recognized. The killer is methodical, highly intelligent, and compulsive-his need for recognition drives every brutal act. He isn't just taking lives; he's manipulating the narrative, shaping a story he expects Celeste to decipher. With every murder, he leaves behind symbols tied to his past, each more cryptic and menacing than the last. His obsession with perfection and power pushes him to test Celeste in ways no one has before, drawing her deeper into his twisted game. As Celeste races against the clock to stop him, she begins to see unsettling parallels between his obsession and her own hidden darkness. The media feeds his ego, amplifying his recognition, while Celeste's personal trauma resurfaces, blurring the line between hunter and prey. With each new clue, Celeste finds herself questioning not just the killer's motives but her own psyche. The killer is watching, waiting, and he knows exactly how to push her to the edge. Mark of the Obsession is a psychological thriller that delves into the chilling mind of a sadistic serial killer and the detective determined to stop him. As Celeste confronts the killer's manipulations, she must face the deepest corners of her own soul-and the terrifying truth that the game is never truly over.

Heirs And Hunters by crazypoodle

"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.
