"She profiles motives. He prosecutes them. Together, they walk the fine line between truth and destruction." ⸻ Four years ago, FBI agent Tessa Martin and ADA Rafael Barba worked one brutal case together - a case that ended in justice, headlines, and a deep, mutual dislike. He thought she was reckless. She thought he was arrogant. They were both right. Now, Tessa's back in Manhattan - newly returned from maternity leave, freshly reassigned as a Behavioral Science Unit liaison to SVU. The Bureau calls her "the golden girl" - brilliant with the media, sharp with profiles, and unshakably calm under pressure. What they don't see are the cracks she hides - the trauma, the sleepless nights, and the baby she's learning to raise on her own. When a high-profile assault case at Hudson University ignites a media firestorm, Tessa is brought in to manage public fallout and provide behavioral insight. What no one tells her? The ADA handling the prosecution is Rafael Barba. Their reunion is instant friction - her warmth against his precision, her empathy against his logic. But as the case unfolds, old grudges begin to blur into respect, and respect turns into something far more dangerous. In a world where justice demands control and truth demands vulnerability, the two find themselves fighting side by side - in the courtroom, in the chaos, and against feelings neither of them asked for. Tessa reads emotions for a living. Barba hides behind them for survival. And somewhere between the law and the lies, they'll both have to decide how much of themselves they're willing to risk for the truth - and for each other. Golden retriever × black cat dynamic

"And lo, the beast looked upon the face of beauty, and beauty stayed his hand. And from that day forward, he was as one dead." Carl Denham ***** As Marco and i approach the table, Nick comes up behind us. I walk to my usual place next to Marco. Nick walks to his usual place as well and holds out the chair on his right. "You sit here from now on" he announces for everyone to hear, as he looks at me. "I am fine where i am thank you very much" I respond. I remember very well how last time he didn't want me there because Rhea was here. No thanks. You can save it for her. "I wasnt asking" He says drawing unnecesary attention to us with everyone here. "Well good. Because i'm never sitting there, ever! Isnt that Rhea's chair? You made that very clear last time" i retort. I know am being petty infront of everyone, but i dont care. He started it. I would rather sit on the floor than occupy his "mistress' "chair Nick surprises me by smiling. I expected him to get angry or something, especially that i'm defying him in front of everyone. So now i'm not sure whether to feel relieved or scared. He walks up to me and my eyes widen, What is he up to? I'm already sitting down, but he pulls my chair out effortlessly and pulls me up. I stand up in shook and watch him carry the chair i was occupying next to his. He pulls out the one Rhea occupied and replaces it with the one he just took... "There, you can either sit here or on my lap, those are your only options, its up to you" he says turning to look at me again with a poker face. No expression. Zero. I turn to look at everyone at the table, and they are all looking at me expectantly. I look back at Nick and he is the only other person standing. "Shall i choose for you?" He smirks finally. ***** #1 in Lovers (20/12/2021) #1 in New (24/03/2022) #1 in Passion (15/07/2022) Books by Bellamerce Book 1: Only For You Book 2 :When Stars Align Book 3: Fire On Fire Book 4: Diamond Hearts Book 5: A Crystal Love

Maddox's work keeps her busy, too busy for an actual relationship. This has never bothered her since no one has managed to hold her interest... at least not until now. A Rafael Barba/original female character story. I originally posted it on AO3 under a different title (one I've never really liked) and am rewriting it as I post it here. It started from an idea I was kind of playing with and has an unconventional start, but as I kept writing I really started to like the development of the relationship, so much so, that it become the first story I actually finished. There's smut... lots of smut, fluffy bits too. I've fudged Barba's age a bit because I wanted Maddox to be in her mid twenties and a fifteen year age gap was as large as I was willing to go. It has thirty five chapters and I will work on rewriting them in between new chapters for my other stories. They need a lot of work. The first four were posted at once because that's the point I decided I liked the story enough to originally post it.
