Regina Iverson, an ambitious defence attorney, thinks she has finally made the career break she for so long desired when she gets assigned to a high-profile murder case. Her biggest surprise comes not in the form of criminal brutality or backdoor firm politics she is suddenly faced with, but her client Damon Steinberg: a suave, witty and charming corporate giant who appears to be anything but a ruthless killer. While the evidence indicates an almost crystal clear guilt, Regina can not bring herself to condemn the man in her eyes, digging deep into the case to find the true criminal and putting herself in danger in the process. With so much at stake, there is only one question Regina wants to answer: can she fall for a criminal or is she correct about Damon's innocence?All Rights Reserved

Reid the Room (ReidxReader) by simpforsoup

It's Y/N's first day at the BAU. She's extremely nervous and excited as one would be starting the best job possible. She cannot wait to meet the amazing team Agent Hotchner has described to her. Everyone fits his description so well, the witty, lovely Garcia. The old, pasta papi Rossi. The Superman of the world Morgan. The funny, creative Prentiss. And the sly, caring JJ. Everyone seems so wonderful and welcoming. Well, everyone except this asshole in the corner. In which the Reader and Reid have a rough start due to her past, the anger soon turns into something more. Conversations that were had, but left unsaid. I promise the story is better than the shitty description- 😪🤚🏼

Black Betrayals by MyraKapoor

Some people come into your life to make it better. However, some just end up making it worse, NOT FOR YOU... but for themselves. Well, Nicholas is no stranger to this. Nicholas Marcellus is no trained assassin but he took up the job to put that one thing into place that got him into this business. For him, money was everything. He could do anything to pursue whatever was in his mind.. which is as aghast as decapitating someone. On the other hand, Davina Decker is a strong but dependent woman. She has a life of her own which, apparently, happens to be claimed by someone else, but Nicholas. She was happy to be where is she but hates the guts of the people her father works with. Guess, it's not easy when your roots are deeply embedded into the Mafia World. She didn't sign up for this world but somehow tumbled into it when her mom got married to her dad. The more she tries to get herself out of it, the deeper she gets stuck into this. But what she doesn't know is that the one who is pulling her in is none other than one of her closest. Some secrets for Davina and some for Nicholas. Embark with them on this journey of the underworld where one wants to kill while the other wants nothing more than to survive!

Passion and genius | Dr Spencer Reid by chuwves

"Whatcha doing boy genius?" "Just admiring the view." "Oh really, you know most people have to pay to see this. Or at least take me out to dinner first." "Actually, that painting behind you is an original Nicolas Poussin from either 1635 or 1636. Dinner sounds good though." "I... okay, sure." Ivie Evans knew starting her dream job overseas would be difficult, the last thing she was thinking about was romance. But the world works in mysterious ways. [ Spencer Reid X OC ]

The Supposed Terrorist by WiredUp007

My trial in court was going on and all the evidence pointed toward my crimes. It was a really pointless proceeding. Everyone knew I had committed those sins against the nation. You know, the usual- mass killings, bombings, and all. I felt a bit sad as I heard the sentence of my death. 23 felt no age to die. "The court is adjourned-" The judge was saying when he got cut off by someone's frantic yells. The doors to the courtroom bang opened and a man entered with urgency. He had some papers in his hands and started waving them in the air. "I CAN PROVE HER INNOCENCE, I CAN. I HAVE EVIDENCE!" His voice rang in the room. I stared. ___________________________________________ Rico Wayland is someone completely abnormal for her age. After all, being convicted for terrorist activities isn't at the top of the to-do list of a 23 year old young woman. But, of course, she has landed herself in that situation. And she is completely aware that she has, in fact, committed those crimes. But what will she do when a man (who she has know clue about) claims to her innocence? How will she discover the thin fine line between reality and illusion?
