On a dark night, a shadow stands at a crossroads. A lone horse and rider, silhouetted against the starry moonless sky. Ancient tales speak of spirits who roam these parts after nightfall, striking terrible bargains. Some even whisper the crossroads is a gate to hell itself. The shadowed figure seems in no hurry, content to wait under the darkness of the new moon.

Deals have been struck, and a debt must be paid.

Into this world comes Rosa Delgado. An investigator. A PeaceKeeper. An Alguacila for the Imperium. A non-believer, she has come to catch a murderer and bring them their due. Armed with her wits, her gun, and her unshakable faith in the rational order of things, Rosa is certain she'll solve this case and restore balance. But the locals speak in hushed tones of forces beyond her ken. Of curses, devils, and vengeful ghosts who claim this land after nightfall. Rosa has no time for such tales. She is an agent of law and reason. But what will she do when she is faced with legend made real? Will she solve the murder while clinging to her beliefs? Or will solving the crime require opening her mind to magics and myths beyond her philosophy? On this moonless night of shifting shadows, Rosa's convictions will be tested like never before.

Unspeakable Secrets The Alchemist Series (A Dark Medieval Progression Fantasy) by DarenGillingham

The only thing he can't do is have a peaceful life. Connor Varas is the nephew of a spymaster. He just learned that he will one day be able to bestow the strength of giants on anyone he pleases. One day he can create as much gold as he wants. One day he can build an army of metal soldiers that no kingdom could stand against. But 'one day' isn't good enough. Not when a mysterious enemy calling itself 'The Syndicate' threatens the city he is dutybound to protect. The enemy pulls all the strings. They hold all the cards. They are as uncatchable as smoke and as unstoppable as an avalanche. Connor's only real allies are a mysterious female assassin with violet eyes whose face he's never seen, and a spy buried deep in enemy territory whose cover might be blown. Worse, if anyone discovers Connor's nascent powers, they'll do anything to make him join their cause. Or prevent him from allying with their enemies. With great power comes even greater enemies...

Butterfly Storm by winteringpages-

He was groomed into a life of crime; she was trying to hide from it. She sipped a steaming cup of mocha; he aimed the smoking barrel of a gun. ～·～·～ The city knows danger lurks, especially when his name is mentioned; a notorious mafioso with a reputation calculative in his brutality. His word is law, his decision precise. Little do they know, he has secrets that can kill. She'd never involve herself in the underworld again. Even if each day hurts, she left it behind to start anew. Her instincts are sharp, her defenses strong. But when a botched abduction forces her to confront her demons, she begins to realize the past never truly left. Especially when a man of smoke and mirrors offers her a proposal. One that's dangerous enough to tempt not only a war, but a craving for sweet, sinister darkness. With a detective hellbent on incarceration, and blackmailing moles hiding in plain sight, betrayal never comes from your enemies, and lies never stay buried. They say only the strongest survive. Blood is thicker than water; but in a mafiosi's world, a roll of the dice can leave even a Don choking on his own blood. ～·～·～ Content/trigger warning: depression, sexual content, violence, crude language. Read at your discretion, and enjoy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Updates are indefinite as I'm taking my absolute time with this. Thank you! Beautiful graphics made by my WP bestie @Xaprith ♡٩(ŏ﹏ŏ、)۶
