After doing something mortifying in front of a new detective in her precinct, Mini's now paired up with him to catch a kidnapper. But little do Mini and her new partner, Rudy, know that chasing him will lead them down a dangerous path that will threaten the people they love- and them.

"She looked up at him, something close to the beginnings of hope entering her eyes, as, abruptly, she leaned forward, and threw her arms around him, enveloping him in a hug.

It took him by surprise, but he slowly returned the hug, his arms going to her back, her body emanating warmth. Through his own, fluttering heartbeat, he heard hers: steady and faint, something comforting. Slowly but steadily, Rudy felt his own heart fall into tandem with hers."

What happens when two fiery souls meet? Rylee is reckless and careless. She does what she wants when she wants. And as a girl with no family, she is never reprimanded. Kason is a rogue and dangerous. He does what he wants when he wants. And since he is known as a troublemaker, he gets away with everything. The two meet one unlucky night when they're trapped in a warehouse together, and declare their hatred for each other soon after. But after that encounter they seem to constantly run into each other. What happens when two fiery souls meet? Dumb arguments, dangerous situations, rivalry, begrudging respect. And of course, an explosion. *Completed* ***** "Headlights suddenly came around the building in front of us. Before I could react, Kason pushed me down flat against the seat. His body pressed into mine as he hid us from the view of the headlights. It must be the security team leaving. My vision focused on his jaw line. I couldn't help it, it was right there. My body seemed to finally sense just what was happening. Heat rushed to my face as my heart picked up pace. I was hyper aware of every part of him that was over me. Why am I blushing like a middle schooler with a crush? Kason finally turned his head down to me and our eyes locked. He seemed to just realize how we were laying. "So... this is awkward." I breathed, trying to ignore the fact I could feel his heartbeat. Kason raised an eyebrow in amusement. "That's what you choose to say in this moment?" I raised my eyebrow as well. "Was I supposed to say something else?" He smirked. "Maybe."

|18+| "Enough is enough," she said to herself. "I'm going to ask him out." Getting up from her seat, she walked over to where he was seated. "Um, hi! I was wondering if we could grab some coffee and maybe hang out sometime?" she asked nervously. He turned to her, a sense of darkness and danger emanating from him. Her body went on alert. "You shouldn't be able to see me," he said with a smiling like a Cheshire cat. . . . "I scratch and bite" she warned "You'll crawl and beg too" he smirked. . . . The Ripple She hardly has time to breathe, much less dream, considering that she is juggling two difficult jobs. One face, nevertheless, sticks out in the midst of the chaos of her daily subway rides: a mysterious guy whom she covertly refers to as "the subway hottie." His mysterious presence becomes the high point of her daily routine-a secret joy. However, one day, with an unusual burst of courage, she dares to break the silence between them. What starts off as a brief connection quickly develops into something forbidden and thrilling. She has no idea that this seemingly random meeting will upend her meticulously planned life in ways she never could have predicted. The Echo He had to grow up too early after being born into an uncertain circumstance and found refuge and survival in the shadow of an underground empire. From a street-hardened recruit to a trusted enforcer in the family's inner circle, what started out as a desperate decision quickly turned into a way of life. However, trust is brittle and was destroyed the day he discovered a cruel betrayal that left him bloodied and drove him to flee. His only goal now is to exact revenge, and The Nemesis is his target. But his well-laid schemes fall apart when she gets in his way. His icy determination starts to soften for the first time, and he has to decide whether seeking vengeance is worth losing the one thing he never thought he deserved-her. 𝔘𝔫𝔡𝔢𝔯 𝔠𝔬𝔫𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔲𝔠𝔱𝔦𝔬

This is a mature book. It has themes of Sex, BDSM, Violence, Murder, Self-Harm, Mind Control, and Torture. Reader discretion is advised. *****This has been edited from the original story (Previously Auras) ***** Aurora was a normal college student working towards a business degree until she went to a party that changed her life. Everyone she knew and cared about was murdered in a twisted idea of fun, she was the only survivor. Quickly dumped into a world of supernatural Aurora must find her place despite the fact a possessive werewolf seems to want to tell her what to do. Can she adjust or will she crumble under the pressure? Excerpt: The screams and cries for help faded while silent tears continued to stream down her face. Her hands were slapped over her mouth to muffle any noise that escaped her quivering lips. She wasn't sure how long she was in that pantry but couldn't come out until she was beyond certain that they had left. For a moment, she started to have hope that maybe they wouldn't be able to find her, but a voice spoke up, and fear flooded in once again. "You cleared out the upstairs, too, right?" "Yeah." Another voice responded. There was a slight pause, "Hmm. Then where is that heartbeat coming from, I wonder." His voice had a sickening amusement to it, and her heart rate uncontrollably spiked with the adrenaline pumped through her veins. Was he talking about her? The thought that he could hear her heartbeat was crazy. It just wasn't humanly possible. Footsteps grew closer to the kitchen. Somehow, they had found her. She said one last prayer and goodbye to her life as the pantry opened. "Boo." The man yelled, peering in at her. She was frozen. There was nothing more she could do. She was going to die. "Little Birdy," he stretched out his hand, "come out to play."
