Summary
A single gloved digit touched underneath my own glove. Waves of tingles stole across my goose pimpled skin. The sensation spread through my body, tantalizing and invigorating, like the heat of brandy chasing away the cold. The tingling blazed a fiery trail, pooling lower and lower...Sebastian's eyes took on a feral glimmer. Drawing in a sharp breath, I snatched my hand away.
You mustn't succumb to the devil's intention.
When girls from Lizzie's academy begin vanishing without a trace, the Queen's guard dog delves into the case with Sebastian. There, the duo find strange ciphers left at the scenes of the disappearances. However, it soon becomes clear this is no ordinary kidnapping scheme when Sebastian uncovers a clue from Cielle's past. To complicate matters, as the pair investigates in tandem, the essence of Cielle's soul starts to change. A change that, for the first time ever, tests Sebastian's impeccable aesthetics—and restraint.

Summary
Viridian wings flapped a few times in preparation, silently praying that he was faster than whatever was about to chase him through the perilous forest.
The haunting red eyes edged closer, swaying in the foliage as they shifted towards him. That was the cue to flee.
Eren spread his wings wide, poised to jump, but his body froze when an eerie whisper came from among the leaves.
“Aren’t you just the prettiest thing…"

Summary
The news coverage of Joey’s death had been relentless at first. Every aspect of the case had been analyzed and publicized in a way that made the Saturn sheriff’s department look like it was being run by a bunch of monkeys.
Evan’s mother had been the sheriff at the time. He’d stood by and watched while her name was dragged through the mud again and again.
Everyone had an opinion about how she had handled the case. Most people seemed to think she was wrong, morally wrong, to focus her investigation on the Murphy family.
That hadn’t stopped her though. Evan didn’t know why. Even after everything they’d been through, he still didn’t know what had made her zero in on them the way she had. Part of him wondered if he ever would.
In other words, an AU that has been inspired by Veronica Mars.

After O'Rourke's betrayal, Shannon decides to make her way back to London only to find that Sherlock has already come back from the dead.
