She was always the one who could stare monsters dead in the eye.

Detective Jann Zavian has built her career on sharp instincts, determination, and an uncanny ability to read the darkest of minds. But when a string of grotesque murders leads her to Hendrix Verlice-a man accused of devouring his victims in both body and spirit, Jann finds herself face to face with something far more obscene than madness. The case is simple on paper: a brutal killer, five bodies, three missing federal agents. But what begins as a routine interrogation spirals into a descent she could never have prepared for. In a locked room meant to hold a man like him, Jann learns what it truly means to be prey.

Satin Hides Your Blood by A_M_Vincent

They stole everything from her-her body, her innocence, her humanity. But She refused to remain a victim. The night she was broken was the night she was reborn, a predator hunting the very kind of men who had once hunted her. She is the devil's daughter. They call her the Huntress, a shadow that lures men in with the promise of pleasure, only to make them suffer before carving them into nothing. He is obsessed with the case. The murders are brutal, methodical, and personal. Each body found in pieces, each victim nothing more than discarded remains. But as he follows the blood trail, he finds himself tangled in something far more dangerous-his own past. She will never be ready to stop this thrill of killing the very breed that hunted her when she was vulnerable. But one must decide-will he stop the monster he's been chasing, or has he already fallen into the darkness himself?

Blessed By The Moon by DeffoNotLina

Skye woke up in a strange town, her clothes drenched in blood and her mind void of memories. The eerie silence of the streets only amplified her panic. An older couple found her and took her in, offering shelter. At first, they seemed kind, but soon their kindness turned bitter, and their compassion twisted into cruelty. Unable to endure their accusations, Skye fled into the night, wandering aimlessly through desolate roads. One night, she witnessed something horrifying: two men transforming into monstrous wolves. Their glowing eyes locked onto hers. In that moment, Skye realized the terrible truth: no human was ever supposed to witness this. And those who did... never lived to tell the tale. Before she could flee, they seized her, dragging her into their world of ancient secrets, power struggles, and untold danger. Now trapped, she found herself caught in a deadly game, one where the players weren't fully human and the rules were impossible to understand.But there was something about her forgotten past that could shift the balance of power within the pack. Her search for the truth had only just begun, but it was clear that uncovering her past might cost her more than her freedom-it could cost her life.. or maybe, it could cost them theirs.

[EYELESS JACK, 111K] "Why didn't you say anything if you already knew who I was?" "I didn't know. Not then." "So your first instinct as a functioning college student, when you get attacked in your own bedroom by a masked cannibal...is to look them up and see if they're some viral internet story." "No, my first instinct was to beat the shit out of you." - Sawyer Rafael has had her entire life dealt to her in absolutes: she is disadvantaged in more ways than one. She will be cheated and pushed around by the people above her. She will make it out bruised, but alive. And she will be a doctor. But things start twisting, folding over, and layering in more ways than she could imagine on the first truly interesting night of her 20s; the night somebody makes an attempt on her life, allegedly for his own survival. For once, she isn't handed a dictating statement about her future, but a question. "Will you help me?"
