    Perfect crimes don't exist. That's what Detective Joong believes - until a series of untouchable elites begin dying in "accidents." Every death is clean. Carefully designed. Every detail controlled. Every victim... deserving. No evidence. No witnesses. No mistakes. Assigned to the case under his brilliant superior chief, Detective Dunk, Joong quickly becomes the department's sharpest weapon. Young. Intelligent. Too perceptive for his own good. But as the investigation deepens, Joong starts noticing something strange. Tiny inconsistencies. Patterns no one else sees. Clues that feel less like oversights... and more like invitations. A game. A test. A confession hidden in plain sight. The closer Joong gets to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes - not just for the killer, but for his own heart. Because falling for someone while hunting a monster is one thing. Finding out you're carrying his child? That changes everything. And when the final choice comes justice or love someone is bound to burn. "Turn me in and I'll still look at you like you're the only thing I've ever wanted." ‼️MPREG‼️

    War teaches a person to survive. Family teaches a person to stay alive. But love - love demands a fight you never expected to wage. Priscilla "Cilla" Reacher didn't plan on stopping in Charming. She rarely planned anything once she left the Army MPs - not when routine meant returning to the nightmares she'd worked years to drown. Like her brother, Jack, she preferred to keep moving, keep breathing, and never let anyone get close enough to become a weakness. Charming was supposed to be a short pause - a town with cheap rent, quiet streets, and enough distance from her past to let her sleep through the night. But Charming... has a way of pulling people in. Filip "Chibs" Telford didn't expect her either. The Sons' hardened Sergeant-at-Arms had long ago learned that attachments were liabilities - and love, a luxury people like him rarely survived. Yet Cilla walks into his world like she belongs in it - sharp-eyed, scarred, and stubborn as hell. He sees the soldier still inside her. She sees the man beneath the leather. Their connection is instant, magnetic - and dangerous. SAMCRO thrives on loyalty and blood, on lines drawn in violence and blurred by brotherhood. Cilla isn't built to follow rules she didn't make... and Chibs isn't the kind of man who lets go once he cares. Every step closer ties her deeper to a world she swore she'd never join. And when threats rise - old enemies from the club and ghosts from Cilla's past - she realizes the worst battle she'll ever face isn't on a battlefield, but in her own heart. Because love, real love, means staying. And Reachers don't stay. Not until they find something - someone - worth staying for.

    Fukuzawa Tsukasa had been a member of the Armed Detective Agency for as long as she could remember and the adopted daughter of Fukuzawa Yukichi. She is a powerful ability user who can generate and manipulate electricity at will. Though it was completely different from her ability's true form. She had to use a limiter just to suppress her immense power, preventing her from going berserk. Tsukasa had been away from the agency for a classified overseas job and only came back a year after she completed her assigned mission. However, the moment she returned, she had an unfortunate encounter with Nakahara Chuuya, a Port Mafia executive who was also a gravity manipulator. Things had gotten worse when she accidentally broke his expensive wine, and now, she owed him a massive debt that was thrice her annual salary at the Agency, much to her sheer horror. The compensation? She must be at his beck and call every time he needed her great assistance. A/N: I do not own Bungo Stray Dogs or any of its characters, excluding the OC.
