"No one must know" "I can't believe he's dead" "Who did it?" "I didn't pay that much for the opening night to be ruined" "Should we tell the police?" "Are we going to cancel the show?" "You killed him, didn't you" "Curtains will be open in less than half an hour, we need to get to our places" "Are you SERIOUS?!"

The Crimson Spotlight (Book 1)
Detective Elias Voss never wanted to be center stage-until a killer made him the star of a twisted play. In the rain-drenched shadows of a crumbling city, a young woman's throat is slashed, her sequined dress a glittering shroud, a black rose pinned to her chest like a macabre boutonnière. The note left behind is a taunt, a curtain call addressed to Detective Elias Voss: "The first act begins. Curtains up, Detective." At twenty-four, Elias is a prodigy with a mind sharper than the killer's blade-shy, devastatingly handsome, and more comfortable with corpses than compliments. He's paired with Mara Quinn, a rookie officer whose wit is as quick as her courage, and together they're thrust into a case that's equal parts theater and terror. The crime scene is a stage, the murder a performance, and the killer a director with a penchant for blood and bravado. As Elias and Mara unravel the clues-a glitzy party, a shadowy figure in a hoodie, a trail of crimson-they realize this is no isolated act. It's the opening night of a deadly series, and Elias is the unwilling lead in a script written by a psychopath. With dark humor as their shield and the spotlight burning hotter with every move, they must catch the curtain before it falls-on them. Perfect for fans of twisted mysteries and unlikely heroes, The Crimson Spotlight is the first act in a gripping new series where every clue is a line, every death a scene, and the finale is far from guaranteed.Complete![30 Days Ultimatum(COMPLETED)[✔]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/132904095-256-k326093.jpg)

Trust me when I say I'm definitely working on it. I haven't fully gotten around editing it 'cause how busy life is at the moment. Note that, this book is my first book ever as a writer and as such has stuff that needs to be worked on. If you want to read a really thought out work, you can read my other books.

Natural Born Sinner: A Dean X Female Reader X Sam Fic
Y/N was a civilian who lived a pretty straight-forward, boring, apple-pie lifestyle. She was incredibly smart...in fact, despite her being so young, she graduated top of her class and was now a Theology Professor at an Ivy League university. Lately, however... she felt like she was in desperate need of a change. After all... she was always a straight-A student, always kept her nose clean and stayed as far away from trouble as possible... a perfect goody two-shoes. Despite all this, Y/N knew there was something deep inside of her....something dormant; uncharted territory that kept calling to her. And once she crosses paths with two mysterious and insanely handsome "FBI Agents"... Y/N quickly discovers what it is she's been missing...and her world may just get rocked in an intense, dark, dangerous...incredibly fun...way. ----------------------------------------------- As per several requests, here is my take on a Dean X Reader X Sam fic! I overly appreciate all the love 'Dark Tendencies' received, and I hope this one lives up to expectation! This is an 18+, HEAVY SMUT, semi-slow burn read. As always, there will be some fluff to move the story along, but intense smut is the general idea! A polyamorous, trio thing is the endgame here. There will be NO favoritism! This book is written in first person, but YOU are the main character! (This does not follow the show storyline to a T, I'm just being creative lol) If you wanna bypass the story build-up and get right into the spice, (It's okay, I get it!), those chapters will be marked with ** around the chapter numbers! WARNING: My smut writing is VERY GRAPHIC!! ---------------------------------------------------------- I do not own the rights to Supernatural, Supernatural characters, the Supernatural storyline, or anything like that. This is just a fanfiction written purely for entertainment!Complete
