Almost Human (Dexter Morgan x OC)
Violence was never her calling - only her specialty. Dr. Isla Hart is many things: a forensic archivist, criminal profiler, evidence historian. She catalogues cruelty with clinical precision, decoding the patterns that others miss. In Miami Metro's cold case basement, she finds comfort in the silence of the dead - and in the order she imposes on chaos. Then there's Dexter Morgan. A blood spatter analyst with the smile of a golden boy and eyes that don't blink at horror. Isla isn't sure what he is - not at first. But he watches her the way a predator watches the one thing it might not eat. Not yet. As the lines blur between fascination and danger, Isla finds herself pulled into a game she didn't agree to play. Cases close. Bodies vanish. And every answer leads her closer to the truth she doesn't want to name. How do you catch a killer... when you might already love one? Almost Human is a forensic love story, a descent into moral ambiguity, and a portrait of two brilliant minds drawn together by the darkness they both understand too well.Complete
