Astra Leone was built to be a weapon, her parents thrived on her being an unstoppable tool at their disposal. To be only for their benefit and to do their bidding. Her sole purpose was to live and die for family, nothing more. They did the absolute most in trying to shut her off from human emotions and to get rid of her hesitation. And it worked. 

She shut herself off from the things labeled as a weakness and being a distraction to her purpose. And even after she had enough and ran from her family she couldn't shake her lessons from her mind. They were built into her and made her who she was, an emotionless soldier.

Astra has always known for a fact that her family had eyes on her. And when she returns to the United States it was for one thing and one thing only, revenge. To end the things that even when she slept haunted her. But what happens when she gets an offer from the FBI to work at the BAU? 

Even though it was very odd, she couldn't deny that it would be very helpful to her in the long run of her plans. The only problem with that is the teams nosiness in wanting to know more about her. They ask her questions in hopes to get to know her and notice her odd behaviors of wanting to keep them at arms length. 

Most of all her boss Aaron Hotchner can't help but show his strong dislike to her. That's not the problem though, the problem is that he's insufferably attractive. And Astra is having a hard time keeping emotions she hasn't felt before at bay for him and his team. 

What happens when Astra allows herself to open up and actually feel? Or when Aaron Hotchners supposed hate for Astra is something more?

Say It (Hotch x Reader)// ✔ by angelfxll

As an FBI agent in the Dallas field office, your unit calls for collaboration with the BAU. Years later, a decision is made for you, catapulting you suddenly into that same team - this time as a trainee. Amongst the flurry of cases, new teammates, and the struggle to keep up with the load of work, you start to carve out a new life. And if the man who'd grabbed your attention back then, SSA Aaron Hotchner, happens to slowly become your friend - you welcome it with open arms. Developing feelings for him - less so. This is a slow burn, and title from Maggie Rogers' song :) (Sorry I don't know how to write something that is not about yearning or pining) Image from tumblr user @0420-1102 I do not own Criminal minds, the characters or the story!*

The Hills [ S.R. ] by stylishyve

(Y/n) had a complicated past. She relocated from her home in California, to Washington DC after a life-altering incident which caused her family to break apart into different, secret locations. She seemed happy living in her apartment and working at the local 24 hour diner. She had her friend Sasha to keep her company and she loved her routine. What happens when one afternoon, the Sheriff asks for her help on a case? What happens when she meets a group of FBI agents that completely flip her life upside down? Disclaimer: Some of the things in here don't really make sense but for the sake of the story let's just pretend. Also, I'm a huge chicken so I can't really write smut but in the 21st chapter it does get a little... close? Oh, I also don't really know how to add trigger warnings but I tried to when I could. If I didn't put enough or anything please let me know in the comments for future stories (this is my first one so idk if you can edit after you publish it lol )! :)

Psychosis by Ciara-Mist

(A Criminal Minds Fanfic {Dr. Spencer Reid}) Isabel Ashe: writer, supposed prodigy, all-around mystery. No one knows anything about Isabel, but that's because she wants to keep it that way. The FBI, however, doesn't want to keep it that way. Throughout Isabel's works, it's been shown she is an expert on forensic psychology: an expert of knowing how to get into a criminal's mind to catch them. For this reason, it is thought that she would be an excellent member of the Behavioral Analysis Unit, or the BAU. However, they have to find her first. They thought of sending the BAU to find her. After all, who better to find a potential profiler than a team of profilers? The members of the BAU didn't expect to have to find the ghost of a girl that is Isabel Ashe. However, when all other resources have been exhausted, it seems they are the only chance the FBI has left of finding her. Thanks to the technical genius of Penelope Garcia, they quickly find out who Isabel Ashe really is, and finding her becomes less of a challenge. They prepared for how they were going to tell Isabel Ashe that she was wanted by the FBI for reasons they didn't know. What they didn't prepare for was finding the girl riddled with psychosis, among other things. Yet, they decide to take a chance with her when they see she has amazing control over her psychosis. After all, who better to catch a psycho than a psycho?

Blurred Lines by agentrepxtation

Y/n has a secret. Actually, she has a few secrets. Y/n used to be involved with the BDSM community for several years with her fiancee, until her new job at the BAU slowly forced her to become more and more separated from her double life. One fateful night, it all changes. Y/n's life is now in shambles, and she has to navigate through her feelings alone. Y/n tries to throw herself into her work, finally allowing herself to become close with her team; but there's one person she can't connect with - her unit chief, Emily Prentiss. Y/n admires her from a distance, concealing her feelings for her unit chief. It works for a few months, but secrets are bound to be exposed, especially when you work with the world's top profilers. One case that hits way too close to home for Y/n proves just that. ... My phone dings as I sit back. I grab it, seeing a text from Emily. I gape openly at her text. "Fucking hell," I breathe. "What? What is it?" Garcia questions me in concern. I swallow harshly. "Emily texted me," I say, "It's a list of rules for tonight." "What do they say?" Garcia asks excitedly. I bite my lip as I read her text out loud. I take a breath, looking at Penelope. She shrugs at you through the mirror. "How are you doing?" She checks. I shake my head. "As good as I can be, given my role-play with the Chief just began," I groan, "I am going to regret this." ... TRIGGERS angst smut BDSM swearing degradation potential lack of aftercare - death/unaliving guns and other unaliving instruments blood mentions of rape and torture (for the cases obvs) kidnapping (for the cases, again, obvs) - anxiety/panic attacks depression throwing up (mostly from being drunk fun fact, Y/n likes to party) ---- *obvs I don't own any of the CM cast. I'm not following a particular plot from the show, and I make up my own cases for the team to work on.

ALEX | a. hotchner (sequel to BLAKE) by couchpotaato

He grabbed my arm at the last second and pulled me back, pressing my body tightly against his. "You like living on the edge, don't you?" He asked with a teasing smile, he was so close I could feel his breath on my mouth. "Only when I know you're there to catch me if I fall," I smiled back at him, biting my lip. His smile disappeared and a frown was put in its place, "we should talk." "About why you're being an ass to me?" I asked, feeling bold. I saw the shock register on his face before he could hide it. "I wasn't aware that I was," he said and cleared his throat. My heart was beating out of my chest and I could smell him so clearly, pine and a hint of lavender, mixed with the scotch from his breath. I knew he hadn't been drinking a lot, but I had, so I took my chance, the urge to kiss him taking over. Though his lips were pretty, it was the feel of them that sent my mind into a sensual state of intoxication. His lips gently pressed against mine made my legs shake. His hands held me tight by the waist and mine was lost in his hair. In that kiss was the sweetness of passion, a million loving thoughts condensed into one moment. The hint of a promise. A promise of realness, a promise to love him forever. - This is the sequel to BLAKE. This is a Criminal Minds story. I do not own Criminal Minds.

But when has the reader's life ever been so simple, and when has fate ever been so forgiving? Neither the reader nor Spencer is the same person they were all those years ago, and after struggling to pick up where they left off, they must determine whether love alone is reason enough to be together. Meanwhile, as the influence of past corruption still runs rampant in the bureau, the reader slowly learns that she might not be as safe as she initially believed. Because this time, she has more than just herself to worry about. Because this time, she has absolutely everything to lose. Because this time, Samuel will stop at nothing to exact his revenge, and he knows exactly what to take in order to finally destroy her.
