"If you're planning on setting me up detective, I can assure that you will not find anything on me." Kiara said between clenched teeth.

"You're one hell of a cracked woman. You have no faith in me, do you?" Dean breathed.

Kiara didn't break though she was at the brink, "just as you said it yourself, I don't."

Dean nodded, his lips pulled out in a cute pout and said. "Well that's too bad but I have good intentions."

Kiara Johnson's trip to her father's home country of Senegal was a dream come true but she doesn't know not all dreams lead to beautiful destinations. Her sister's murder by some unknown thugs stirred up Kiara to search for them even from the pits of hell. But she has no idea the people she is up against: who are ready to kill, bribe,torture to achieve their goals.

But when Detective Dean Wilson put his career on the line to investigate mysterious murder cases, the journey gets darker. 

Will Kiara succeed in her quest to find the murderers of her sister? Could the stake get any higher? Will Kiara and Dean find something else common to both of them?

Tainted Moon by Artxstic

Imagine living in a world of extra-ordinary things. Where man and beast is one, where everyone you know is the same but you're all so different from the outside world. A place where u can transform into your pure nature, and you are ten times as strong as everyone else in the society you are locked away from. Wouldn't that be something? However, Kiara has always wondered what lied beyond those imaginary walls, the barriers that not only kept everyone out but also kept them in. There was no way she would get to explore these things though because she is the prized possession of her people and no harm could come to her. So she followed every rule, passed every test and overcome every obstacle put in her path; if there was such a thing as perfect she would be it. Until she turned 18 then everything changed, her parents see that she isn't perfect after all and alas no one is. Because of this revelation she is met with new obstacles and ultimatums which she despises and takes matters into her own hands. Now she is faced with the ultimate mystery that breaks all rules, shatters all boundaries, enchants and captures her in every way possible. Will she back away from a challenge? or will she be able to adjust and be apart of creating a story like no other?

Beautiful Chaos by BlackBull4LIFE

A lonely young women's life changes the very night of Murray Franklin's murder, on live television and it is a change that her heart will never forget. When she spots a man passed out and bloody, in an alley, that same night and even when she sees who it is, even though she hesitates for a moment, that doesn't stop her from trying to help him, despite him resisting it. Even though her mind wills against it, her fragile heart finds a lifeline in his. She soon comes to realize that this man is so much more than this "Joker" person that's all over the news, but a kind and beautiful soul that has suffered greatly, as has hers. She comes to find that he has a brilliant light that glows brightly inside of her very own darkness as the moon gleams in the night's sky, for even the moon would not shine so brightly, without the darkness that surrounds it. 🌙 A/N: I just want to say first, that this fic will never be abandoned! I promise. It's already done anyway but needs editing. I update every 7 to 10 days ♡

Ishihara // ATEEZ ✔ by dreamperfection

This is a world where your worth is as much as the colour of your blood. Akira is the queen's most trusted soldier and general. Being the highest ranked amongst others, she is ruthless in doing her job. She only has one weakness: she cannot see colours. The world only represents itself as black and white to her and she has learnt to use it to her advantage. She slashes people with her sword without even batting an eye - the blood splattered across is merely a liquid that holds no meaning to her. In the kingdom of Lucida, the people are divided based on the colour of their blood. Royalty bear white blood, noblemen take crimson, commoners live with blue while the servants, considered the lowest in the ranks, are left with yellow blood. No one is allowed to marry outside their ranks and no one ever dares to break the norm throughout the centuries. When the queen orders her to find the identity of the mysterious Shadow King, she sets out on a quest to find the real king. Her list is narrowed down to 7 men, all from different backgrounds. Blood has to be shed in order to confirm the king's identity but she has one problem: she cannot determine the truth with her own eyes.

Malicious Romance by Ekphrastic

Sometimes, not every love story can be as idyllic as it should be. Dean Winchester, bred and raised in the mafia, carried a heart that yearned desperately for love, just like any ordinary person. While the essence of a criminal coursed through his veins, his heart wept for every inhumane act he committed. No matter how hard he strived to become a better man, he couldn't wash away the thick blood of an outlaw. In the end, he never expected anyone to care for him. All he ever longed for in his life was to experience the tender embrace of a mother's love, like everyone else. Sadly, even his own mother chose to abandon him to the clutches of his ruthless father, the Cobra mafia boss. Every twist of fate was fueled by the mere fact that he carried the blood of a killer, leaving him branded as a monster without a chance to prove his worth. Dean grew weary of trying to change people's perceptions of him. Until one fateful day, he crossed paths with the daughter of his sworn enemy, and his world turned upside down. In her presence, he discovered acceptance for who he truly was. For the first time in his life, he experienced genuine love. Every emotion, from tenderness to heartbreak, washed over him, gradually numbing his senses. ***WARNING*** Strong Adult Content & Explicit Language 18+. The story contains brutal acts of violence.

Kiara is an eighteen year old high school student who happens to be a victim of a serial killer. Other girls that will be put in Kiara's shoes would probably run, shout and cry for help by instinct.

From that moment, she had been forever captive of a notorious serial killer. ✔Mature for dark themes, adult scenes, graphic content, violence, rape, drug abuse and such.
