Dear Detectives,

Did you miss me? I certainly hope so because I have a brand-new mystery for you to crack. This one isn't just any case, it's one that's been buried in the shadows of Sullivan University, waiting for sharp minds like yours to uncover the truth.
While I'm off enjoying a well-deserved vacation, I need you to step in and do what you do best-solve the unsolvable. John and his friends are in deep, and they're counting on you to piece together the clues, follow the trail, and uncover what's really lurking beneath the surface. But be warned-this isn't a simple puzzle to solve. There are whispers in the dark, messages hidden in places no one has dared to look, and forces at play that don't want the truth to come to light.
Every case has its twists and turns, and this one is no exception. Pay attention to every detail, question every piece of evidence, and trust your instincts. Sullivan University has more secrets than anyone ever realized, and the deeper you dig, the more dangerous the game becomes.
Some mysteries refuse to stay buried, and some shadows stretch farther than you think. Are you ready to uncover what's been hidden for so long?
Stay sharp, detectives. John is counting on you. I'm counting on you.

Main Characters (Updated) Seraphina Wite Twenty-year-old biochemistry student. Quiet, razor-smart, stubborn in a way that scares her professors. She works nights in the city's forensic toxicology lab through a confidential internship she was never technically qualified for. Dr. Monet Holloway Thirty-four. The new supervisor of the forensic lab. Brilliant, dangerously composed, and the youngest forensic pathologist the department has ever hired. He carries secrets in his silence and grief behind his eyes. Updated Story Premise Seraphina is balancing university exams, research, and dead bodies - until Monet Holloway arrives and flips her predictable routine upside down. He becomes her direct supervisor. He's strict, unreadable, and makes her feel something she has no business feeling. And then their first case together lands on the metal table. A body with an impossible chemical signature - a compound Seraphina recognizes from her own university's restricted research vault. When she tells Monet what she sees, he shuts down. "This compound does not leave university grounds," he says. "And no one outside the development team should know it exists." But Seraphina is part of the development team. And someone used her credentials to access the vault. She's being framed - and Monet knows it. Biochemistry students connected to Seraphina's program are disappearing. The compound found in the victims was part of a neurological augmentation study shut down years ago - a project infamous for unethical experimentation. Someone brought it back. Someone linked to her university. Someone using her name. The deeper they dig, the more Seraphina becomes the prime suspect. And the more Monet risks everything - his job, his ethics, his carefully constructed life - to keep her safe.

Reveur by DaviiLikesYou

It was morning. I stood with closed eyes in the bathroom. I stood at the sink with a mirror in front of me. I felt thin and long fingers on my waist. I knew it was a dream. I felt talons. They didn't hurt me but I had a feeling if I opened my eyes they would. I felt breathing down my spine. Chills and fear shook my whole body. I couldn't look but I wanted so badly to see and know what or who was behind me. A tear of fear slowly slid down my cheek. I gasped in a low voice when I felt a tongue lick it away. More tears started falling when I felt a clawed finger brush the salvia away. I whimpered when I heard it speak: "It's okay. I'm only here to protect you and help you." Lissie is being stalked and she does not know what to do or who to tell. She does not know what is following her. She's got to be dreaming but when the thing following her keeps stalking she realizes that this might not be a dream. But what is it? Where does it come from? Why follow her?

The Follower by LateNightStories12

Life has evolved and more technologies appeared. The internet is the main brain of these technologies, but that doesn't mean that it's safe. It is said that we are only using 10% to 15% of the entire internet, so where is the left of it that's the question. That's not the main point the point is how people could use the internet. Some could use it for social life, some could use it for doing research and some could use it to track you down and know every single move you do. They could hear everything, know your next destination. Maybe now you're being followed and tracked down by someone but you just don't know. Just as the characters in the story. The story is based on possible events that could occur in these days. Nobody knows what's out there on the internet, and what's in people's minds. Beware the internet, beware of the people around you, beware of the people you give trust to, beware of the mysterious follower that stalks you that is obsessed with you without you knowing. * Story chapters will be published one by one as a tv series to make the reading part easier and give more excitement to what's coming* Thanks for reading.

Pretty Monsters (Cruel Boys Of Raven Oak Prep #1) by Lenore_Ravin_9217

THE DEAD DO NOT SPEAK. For years I coexisted with the living, but my life has forever known the waking shadows of death. As a clairvoyant, I wield a rare gift to communicate with spirits abandoned to wander in search of liberation from the lives they once belonged to. A gift I must use to find answers after being condemned for my mother's mysterious murder with the assistance of a lost soul, having latched herself to mine. When my estranged father demands me to enroll in the prestigious academy he once attended, Raven Oak Prep, we learn there are secrets hidden within its beautiful walls and paved with bad intentions. Secrets someone wants me to find. Seeking the truth proves difficult when the Student Council marks me as the enemy. Four beautifully, shattered boys hiding behind their masks to play out my brother's revenge in retribution for my mother's untimely demise. When their wicked games, and my morbid investigation becomes entwined, a shared connection is discovered that may just wake the ghosts of both our pasts. DEATH FOLLOWS US. After the falsified suicide of our girlfriend, we made a vow in the name of our brotherhood to uncover the truth. In the years since, we established no leads. Time turned us into monsters. We lost hope and said Fuck You to redemption. Until Beau's sister entered the doors of our academy with secrets that rivaled our own, unbeknownst she brought a depraved serial killer to our doorsteps set on murdering our students in a twisted game. His name? He calls himself Monster. Riddle after riddle the hunt against time to unmask Monster and understand his motives, grows, as he leaves a pile of bodies whispering old tales and written in ciphers. Who will be the next one?

Wives' Murder Club by 1-800-Smackabitxh

The dates match. Everything added up. How could I not realize it? The bodies. The charges. The gossip. The rumours. The accuracy. The deaths. Every single body went missing. They were right, I should have listened. I knew something was weird, but not this bad. Church on Sundays, book club on Mondays, Bible study on Wednesdays, their kids' games on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Charity donations on Fridays, and dates on Saturdays. I guess its true what they say. The biggest monsters don't hide in the darkness of your closet. Instead, they smile in your face in broad daylight. The worst demons don't conceal themselves in your shadow. They thrive in the light. The darkest souls own the brightest smiles. A light so captive, you don't even realize they've gotten so close. Don't even realize when you've befriended them and their darkness has touched you. So, Sometimes, to find the ugliest monster, you have to look in the mirror. P.S, the tags should serve as a warning as well. This story is my own, which means I own the characters, plot, etc. However, I did get some inspiration from James Patterson's WOMEN'S MURDER CLUB, just with a slight twist ;)

Oaths & Bruises (WILLIAMEST & NUTHONG FANFIC) by barbwrites_

Est grieves the death of his partner, finding quiet in self-harm until he meets Hong-owner of an underground BDSM club who teaches him that pain and pleasure are two sides of the same coin. But when Est sees something he shouldn't, he falls into the hands of William- leader of a mafia sect and a broken sadist whose cracks leave space only for him. By night, Hong rules The Citadel- an underground bdsm club. By day, he hides behind the badge of a cop, protecting the club's ties to the mafia. However, his world falls apart when Nut, a new detective investigating drug-related deaths, receives an anonymous tip with five names- one that hits too close to Hong. Now, he must cover his tracks while falling for the very same man sent to bring him down. In the wake of grief, lust, and secrets, the four men's lives collide. And what follows is a storm of romance, lies, betrayal, and chaos- where love cuts as deep as violence, and no one leaves untouched. __________________________ This work is inspired by The Original Sinners series by Tiffany Reisz- one of my all-time favorites. Disclaimer: This story contains very heavy themes and real BDSM, not the airbrushed version you see in today's media. It's unfiltered and brutal. If that makes you uncomfortable, I suggest you end your journey here.♥️ I'll post updates weekly or even earlier. I will also update the tags as I go. I hope you enjoy reading what I come up with. ♥️

Dead leaves don't fall by Wesley2321

When I first set foot in the Shivering Woods, I was looking for answers - a scientific explanation for the disappearances, the strange rumors, the unnatural cold that seems to seep from the trees. What I found was something far older and far darker than I ever imagined. The forest doesn't just hide secrets; it feeds on them. Time bends. Memories bleed into the bark and the soil. And something watches from the shadows - faceless, patient, and knowing exactly who you are. As the woods close in, whispering in voices meant only for the lost, I had to face a terrifying truth buried beneath the roots. One wrong step, and you become part of the forest itself, trapped where dead leaves don't fall. This is the story of what I saw - and what I barely survived.

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️ by geekiechicforall13

"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER! The best part about this book is that it has some funny bits and introduces you to characters I use for a while. But, if you don't like the writing, please consider one of my newer works 😊 Started: May 10, 2016 Completed: September 2016
