She was sinking like a stone.

Robert Goren did all within his power to cut the weight, hurling everything in his arsenal in the hope that she would realise he wasn't worth the struggle.

She was drowning. And still, Alex Eames held on. They were tethered together and it was too late to cut herself loose now-not that she was inclined to. Alex would let Bobby carry her down with him to the sediment itself.

This fic explores the relationship between Alex & Bobby through the course of S6-S10 and includes vignettes from Blind Spot, Endgame, Amends, Untethered, Purgatory, Lady's Man, Loyalty, and The Last Street in Manhattan.All Rights Reserved

Heartbreak Express by rayneaissance

🏆 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐲𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 | She ran from her wedding the day she found out the groom was expecting a baby with someone else. Now, with a broken heart and no suitcase, she's starting over in London... Two men, one new life and a second chance she never saw coming. Isabella Solène Hart was supposed to be a bride. Instead, she became a woman who walked away from betrayal, from shame, from the version of love that left her undone. London offers her nothing but silence and strangers and that's exactly what she needs until it starts to offer more. A job at a luxury PR firm, a flat that slowly becomes a home, a local café with warm coffee and warmer smiles, a neighbour with a cat named Rufus and a shopkeeper named Robert, gruff, loyal, quietly becoming the father figure she never had. But nothing shakes her more than the two men who begin to orbit her new life. Skylar, the charming café owner with kind eyes, he makes her laugh again, makes her feel again, but when it matters most... he stays silent. And Sebastian, the enigmatic CEO with ice-blue eyes and power in every breath. He shouldn't be looking at her the way he does, he shouldn't know who she is, but he does and what begins as a spark quickly threatens to set fire to the walls she's still rebuilding. Now Bella must navigate more than just a second chance, she must decide what kind of love she's ready for and whether she can open her heart again without losing herself in the process. It's a story of loss, of starting over, and the two men who force her to face what love really means. Of heartbreak turned healing, of strangers turned family. It's not just about falling in love, it's about who you become when your world shatters... and you choose to rise anyway.

The Red Rose - The Prequel by Magiewood

She was lying on the rocks with her hand in the air. I remember her telling me a story about a girl who met her lover in a cave behind a waterfall and how they would always meet there in secret... An illicit affair between a prince and a prostitute. Till this day, I hate how the story ended, with the prince marrying a beautiful princess and the prostitute killing herself, unable to bear the pain of the reality she knew would one day inevitably come.

Exquisite by mintchocochipcookie

Since he was a child, Damen Everett knows that he and his siblings are living on borrowed time. The younger son of the country's biggest gold smuggler, Damen watched his elder brother become a part of the world that runs on shadows when their father died. He stood at a distance from this world where power is supreme, and death is inevitable, watching it slowly consume every possibility of happiness he or his family could dream of. For him, this world represents everything dark there is in the universe, a collection of human filth and pain and fear. He vowed to himself that till his last breath, he would stay as far away from it as possible, locking himself away within himself. And then he met a woman. A woman who bought cheeseburgers from assassins and picked pockets faster than he could blink; who giggles like a child and kills like a viper. The woman who saved his life, not once, but always. The Goddess of the Hunt.

It's in your eyes by mrslarosa

Alex has spent years chasing lust but never finding release. Every touch is empty. Every man, just another distraction from the scars buried beneath her skin. Then V returns-sinfully handsome, exuding dominance, and with a mouth that promises ruin. He doesn't ask. He takes. And for the first time, Alex doesn't want to run. With him, desire is a storm-blinding, relentless, raw. Each orgasm strips away her defenses. Each demand makes her crave more. He's the only man who's ever made her feel alive... and the one who could destroy her completely. Because the man who teaches you how to live will also be the one to own you-heart, body, and soul. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of child abuse, sexual assault, grooming, domestic violence, and suicidal thoughts.

An Acquired Taste by CharlieFenwick

Like whisky, Robert Goren was an acquired taste. He knew it. She knew it (as did anyone that spent time in his company). But Alexandra Eames liked whisky. This story explores the deep bond between Eames & Goren. It covers the events of the series and beyond (including their interim absence during S9) with one major change. Eames's pregnancy in S3 wasn't a surrogacy for her sister. Instead, she chose to have a child on her own. And Bobby learns to reevaluate a poignant question- is it too late? Longfic. Slowburn. Unabashed Goren/Eames.

Rain Again (Completed) by LaraRuze

Highest Ranking on hotlist: #1 #Wattpad Exclusive Story #New paid exclusive chapters available Her confusion multiplied, looking at the unrefined fury in his eyes, the seriousness and finality in his features. "I seriously am clueless here, Alex. What is it that I've done?" she asked. "Tell me." "This." he threw some photos her way. Shaken by Alex's behavior, Kate snapped her face back as some of the photos slapped across her cheek. They crawled down in the air to slowly settle around her feet. He looked away from her like she had burned him. And Kate couldn't help but feel her insides tremor. Instincts screamed at her that a storm had indeed entered her life with the intent to harm the love that she and Alex shared. Bending down slowly, she reached out with trembling hands; she picked up one of the photos from the floor and froze. In the photo, Neil, her best friend, and she was making out. Kate remembered this moment, but it was nothing like this. Lifting her eyes from the photo where she had apparently locked lips with Neil, Kate looked back up into Alex's eyes and got scared out of her wits. The eyes where used to be only love and affection for her. There, those emotions were now replaced with endless hatred only. ~Nothing lasts forever; people change, and so change their lives.~ Kate thought she had one forever with Alex, but that forever came to an end too soon. When she was about to tell him the news of her pregnancy, what she expected was his elation and love, never had she thought that she would be punished instead. Thrown to the street literally, she lost everything she held dear. ~Memories never fade, and pain can never be forgotten.~ And then, one day, Alex enters her life again, this time aiming to break more than her heart. He believed she was his unfaithful wife, only to see the truth when the destruction was complete. Prequel: In the Rain (ongoing) Sequel: And Then it Rained (ongoing)
