Detective Olivia Benson is used to chasing criminals, not her own heart. When a missing child's case leads her back into the orbit of Alexandra Cabot - returning as a high-profile ADA, after living for six years under witness protection - old sparks reignite. 
Their past physical relationship was complicated, but as their paths cross again, the chemistry between them is undeniable. As they work together to uncover dangerous truths, Olivia must confront the one thing she's always feared: falling for Alex, and the dangerous consequences that come with it. Will they finally have a chance at love, or will their past and present tear them apart once again?

Evidence of Us by StellaBloom_09_
47 parts Ongoing Mature
"She profiles motives. He prosecutes them. Together, they walk the fine line between truth and destruction." ⸻ Four years ago, FBI agent Tessa Martin and ADA Rafael Barba worked one brutal case together - a case that ended in justice, headlines, and a deep, mutual dislike. He thought she was reckless. She thought he was arrogant. They were both right. Now, Tessa's back in Manhattan - newly returned from maternity leave, freshly reassigned as a Behavioral Science Unit liaison to SVU. The Bureau calls her "the golden girl" - brilliant with the media, sharp with profiles, and unshakably calm under pressure. What they don't see are the cracks she hides - the trauma, the sleepless nights, and the baby she's learning to raise on her own. When a high-profile assault case at Hudson University ignites a media firestorm, Tessa is brought in to manage public fallout and provide behavioral insight. What no one tells her? The ADA handling the prosecution is Rafael Barba. Their reunion is instant friction - her warmth against his precision, her empathy against his logic. But as the case unfolds, old grudges begin to blur into respect, and respect turns into something far more dangerous. In a world where justice demands control and truth demands vulnerability, the two find themselves fighting side by side - in the courtroom, in the chaos, and against feelings neither of them asked for. Tessa reads emotions for a living. Barba hides behind them for survival. And somewhere between the law and the lies, they'll both have to decide how much of themselves they're willing to risk for the truth - and for each other. Golden retriever × black cat dynamic

13 parts Complete Mature

ADA Rafael Barba prided himself on being unshakable in the courtroom, a man of logic and precision who thrived under pressure. But when Lieutenant Olivia Benson called him to the hospital late on a Sunday night, her voice tight with urgency, his world tilted off its axis. The victim wasn't just another case-she was Sophie McCoy, Jack McCoy's brilliant and fiercely independent daughter. Worse still, she was his Sophie, the woman he'd been secretly seeing for months. As the weight of the situation settled over him, Barba realized he wasn't just fighting for justice this time-he might be fighting for his own freedom. Secrets, lies, and the thin line between love and betrayal threaten to unravel everything as Barba is thrust into the most personal and perilous case of his career.
