In the heart of the sprawling metropolis of Zenith City, where the twilight haze mingled with the flickering lights of towering skyscrapers, a masked figure known as the Crimson Hood prowled the rain-drenched alleyways, his silent vigil a testament to the ceaseless battle against the city's pervasive corruption. With the grace of a predator and the unyielding resolve of a man driven by a tragic past, the Crimson Hood, known to few as Victor Blackwood, stalked the night, his memories laced with the searing pain of loss and the relentless pursuit of justice.

27 parts Complete
In the underbelly of a sprawling city, three lives become inextricably intertwined by fate, obsession, and a thirst for control. Leon and Victor are not just brothers; they are feared mafia leaders, known as much for their ruthlessness as for their shared obsessive-compulsive disorder, a trait passed down through generations of their crime family. They thrive on order, control, and the routines that keep their world in check. Into their carefully ordered world enters Clara, a sheltered young woman who has been homeschooled her entire life by overprotective parents, keeping her away from the city's dark secrets. With an innate innocence and curiosity, Clara represents everything the brothers have lost and yearn for. One fateful night, a chance encounter brings Clara into the brothers' world. Leon, with his brooding intensity, and Victor, with his cold calculating mind, both become infatuated with Clara, seeing in her an opportunity to break from their suffocating routines and experience something genuine. Their obsession grows, and they both wish to have her for themselves, but also recognize that she might be the only bond preventing them from self-destruction. Clara, initially intrigued by the brothers and their enigmatic aura, soon finds herself trapped in a world of luxury, danger, and conflicting emotions. While she is drawn to the passion and protection Leon offers, she is also captivated by Victor's strategic mind and the stability he provides. As the bonds between the trio deepen, so do the dangers they face. Rival mafias, jealous of the brothers' new distraction, see Clara as a vulnerable target. As the three navigate their unconventional relationship, they must also combat external threats and their own inner demons. "Theirs to Love" is a tale of obsession, desire, and the lengths one will go to for love. In a world dominated by darkness and danger, can an innocent light shine bright enough to survive, or will it be consumed by the shadows?

The Crimson Spotlight (Book 1) by JanSav3
9 parts Complete Mature
Detective Elias Voss never wanted to be center stage-until a killer made him the star of a twisted play. In the rain-drenched shadows of a crumbling city, a young woman's throat is slashed, her sequined dress a glittering shroud, a black rose pinned to her chest like a macabre boutonnière. The note left behind is a taunt, a curtain call addressed to Detective Elias Voss: "The first act begins. Curtains up, Detective." At twenty-four, Elias is a prodigy with a mind sharper than the killer's blade-shy, devastatingly handsome, and more comfortable with corpses than compliments. He's paired with Mara Quinn, a rookie officer whose wit is as quick as her courage, and together they're thrust into a case that's equal parts theater and terror. The crime scene is a stage, the murder a performance, and the killer a director with a penchant for blood and bravado. As Elias and Mara unravel the clues-a glitzy party, a shadowy figure in a hoodie, a trail of crimson-they realize this is no isolated act. It's the opening night of a deadly series, and Elias is the unwilling lead in a script written by a psychopath. With dark humor as their shield and the spotlight burning hotter with every move, they must catch the curtain before it falls-on them. Perfect for fans of twisted mysteries and unlikely heroes, The Crimson Spotlight is the first act in a gripping new series where every clue is a line, every death a scene, and the finale is far from guaranteed.

My Fathers Killer

18 parts Ongoing Mature

A story in which Don Lucian of the Russian mafia becomes deeply enamoured with the notorious assassin known as 'Whisper' within the criminal underworld. ---------------------------- With eyes the color of fallen autumn leaves, and the confidence of ten kings, she was my world, my life, and my death. In her, I found the spring, summer, autumn, and winter of my soul. I often wondered if I was loving her wrong, maybe I was too obsessive, I thought I might die when she wasn't close enough to me. That's not an exaggeration, I truly thought I was going mentally insane. Her touch was the only thing to calm me. I fully believed that if she were to stab me, I'd be quick to check that she didn't nick herself in the process. I loved her. I cherished her beyond measure, like the stars adore the dark sky and the bees adore the flowers. Even if I had nothing else, as long as I had a piece of her, I would find a way to survive. ---------------------------- "You're such a big man, such a strong man and here you are, on your knees for me. That's a little pathetic, don't you think Lucian?" "You can have me anywhere, any country, any planet, any universe and I will be on my fucking knees for you. I beg for your love, my angel, and I will until the day I die." "Awh" I coo and bend down a little so our faces are just inches away "you will be begging for a very, very long time"
