"Actus non facit reum nisi mens sit rea..."
How long can someone escape their heritage when it's all they've ever known? It's hard to abandon all that's familiar to you for the sake of something you've always been forced to live without: love, the most dangerous emotion any human can experience.
She ran from her ghosts but their haunting followed her and she relinquished all thoughts of her freedom and dreams of being her own person for loyalty and obedience - for family - with no fuss.
Siobhán Quinn knows what is expected of her in her solitary life and she has never had the need to question it - but when consulting overseas for a disliked Section Chief of the BAU, she meets someone and comes to the startling realisation that all that she's been forced to hide so desperately may be worth being seen after all.

The Mirror Effect
She joined the FBI to uncover the truth. What she found was something much closer. Sloane Lawson has spent her life searching-for answers, for identity, for the mother who vanished before she ever had a name. Now, as a newly minted agent in the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, Sloane believes she's finally on the right path. If she can understand the minds of strangers, maybe she can finally understand herself. But nothing in the BAU is ever simple. As Sloane builds trust with her team, a quiet connection forms between her and a fellow agent-one she can't explain, yet can't seem to ignore. Similar thoughts. Similar instincts. Similar shadows in their eyes. What begins as a job soon becomes something more intimate: a slow unraveling of past and present, of identity and blood. What she's chasing isn't just a memory. It's been beside her all along. One truth still holds: the past always finds a way forward.Complete

Psychopathy
(A Criminal Minds Fanfic {Dr. Spencer Reid}) Book 2 in the "Psychosis" series. As long as the members of the BAU have known her, Ciara Byrne has kept a wealth of secrets- secrets that seemed to destroy her even as she held tightly onto them. After a year of working with her, most of them had learned to let it go and had given up on ever finding out those secrets. But when Ciara goes missing, letting those secrets stay hidden may not be an option anymore. Dr. Spencer Reid thought he knew Ciara. But as the investigation goes on, more holes start to appear in the plot of her life, and he starts to realize how little he actually knew her. But what he did know was that her disappearance left him realizing how much his feelings for her had grown and that he should have told her that long ago. He knew that the key to finding her before it was too late was hidden somewhere in the secrets of her past, and when the genius set his mind to something, nothing and no one could stop him. The clock is ticking. An agent's life is on the line. And if the BAU wants to have any chance of seeing Ciara again, they'll have to work hard to unearth the secrets she fought so hard to keep buried. *Rated Mature for scenes depicting sexual assault and graphic tortureComplete

Her eyes were dark. She was staring into blank space. But there's a twitch in the corner of her eyes, she was either angry or trying to take control of her emotion." Prentiss said while holding the photo. "Stop," Hotchner said. "May I say a last word, Sir?" "Yes, you may." "The only person that looks happy in this photo is your son. Please do anything you can to shield him from the darkness of this world." Prentiss said, with a grim expression. --CM-- Emily Prentiss's journey from Doyle's mission to her transfer to the BAU in Quantico. Slight Hotchniss.

BLAKE | a. hotchner
"It's been awhile," I looked at him with a small smile. "What brings you back here? You're not here because you missed me, are you?" I raised my eyebrows and gave him a sly smirk. He didn't answer, clearly he wasn't in the mood to play. "Don't be shy, Agent, I missed you too," I tilted my head to the right, allowing the corners of my mouth to move upwards. He raised one eyebrow, still locked in his silence, still staring at me. I had had enough of his cold demeanor, he was the one who came to me. "Why are you here, Hotchner?" I asked. "It better not be because you have more questions about my father, because I'm not answering any more of those." I moved my head an inch forward, putting my entangled hands on the table, looking at him intently, making sure he understood. "I want you to work for me," the handsome man in the suit finally spoke. - This is a Criminal Minds story. I do not own Criminal Minds.

This sequel was a long time coming, and I'm thrilled to finally release it for you all to enjoy. As usual, here are a few disclaimers: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE ORIGNIAL CRIMINAL MINDS CHARACTERS OR STORYLINE MENTIONED IN THIS STORY!

I ALSO DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE PICTURES ATOP EACH CHAPTER OR THE PICUTRES THAT I COMPILED TO MAKE THE COVER! (Links will be provided to where I found every picture from as to give appropriate credit to the owners). WHILE THIS STORY IS NOT CURRENTLY RATED MATURE, THERE ARE SOME MENTIONS OF THE FOLLOWING: HOMOSEXUAL RELTIONSHIPS (nothing gets too graphic aside from kissing), FAIRLY MILD DEPICTIONS OF VIOLENCE/BODILY HARM (at some points, there are scenes where someone is getting beat up, but nothing more serious than that), DEPICTIONS OF WEAPONS (guns and things like that that one expects in a story about FBI agents).Complete
