It's all a game.

How much does the life of three hostages weigh against the life of an entire city?

For ex-detective Henry Wood, hunting a diamond thief seems like the best way to get him and his partner back into the team. Back into their jobs. It's been a year since they were fired and it can't go on like this.

His over-confident genius of a partner isn't so sure. As they delve deeper into the case, all is not as it seems. What starts out as an ordinary theft soon turns into a twisted game of life and death. Aidan is faced with an enemy from his past, with a mind as sharp as his. Known only as 'The Trickster', he makes Aidan doubt everything he believes in.

As the stakes rise higher, and time is running out, all that remains is one question:
Who will play the better trick?

Shadows | A Forever Fan-Fiction - Sequel to Lights by missmintea

It's been a decade since Lights woke up in the hospital. A decade since Adam escaped the factory, fleeing into the night. A decade since Dr. Henry Morgan left everything he could have ever cared about behind. But now, he's back in town, as clever, charming, and immortal as ever. Lights, who has gone on to become a part-time kendo teacher to pay back her student debt for medical school, isn't happy to see him. In fact, she has a lot of mixed feelings of negativity towards him. But there really isn't any time for that. Adam is back, with much more planned for Lights, Jo, and Dr. Morgan. As chaos settles over their lives, Lights needs to figure out how to balance the insanity of it all before she loses her residency, or, more importantly, loses her life. As Lights decides to make one final stab for the truth behind the Maverick, her father's death, and her mother's insanity, a terrible ultimatum falls into place - she can make or break her future, but it all depends on where her allegiances lie. The clock is ticking, and death does not wait for those who bear his mark. [This work was mostly written for fun, and to avoid writer's block, however it is very flawed, and I have to edit it a lot. I apologise for plot holes and such! Thanks for reading!]

Thrill of the Chase (Hunters & Heartbreakers 1) by atlas_of_wonderland

(✔️) Langdon Wilkes is a reluctant - and somewhat bumbling - hunter. But because his father is the headmaster of the Institute of Paranormal Study and Prevention, just as every Wilkes before him, he hardly has a choice. That is, until he runs into, and keeps running into, Wells Hudson and his sister, Naomi. And following a near-death experience involving a vampire, Langdon can't help but be curious about Wells. Even if he clearly resents him. Wells Hudson is a hunter by circumstance. As the older sibling, and with their father driven raving mad by ghost possession, the responsibility has fallen to him to keep the Hudson family business running while protecting Naomi. And the encounter with Langdon Wilkes doesn't help matters. After all, the hunters like him are the ones that put hunters like Wells out of business. Which means he can't constantly be pulling him out of near-misses. But when Langdon's best friend is captured by vampires and Wells discovers a plot devised by the Institute headmaster himself to control creatures through a strange and obscure blood magic, things get complicated. Especially when both boys discover their feelings for each other growing. And they discover the thrill of the chase.
