I really liked the mystery solving, working for an institution meant to solve crimes, found family and the romance subplot. Id love for the romance (and the characters) to be more mature and a bit more relevant. Not necessarily the main plot but equally or less important. It should be romance between colleagues and the romance should develop there as well. I don’t want the romance and mystery/crime solving to be separate but rather intertwined.
Honestly I think I’m looking for a criminal minds ff with post prison Reid as the mmc.
Some smut is preferred but not a must. What is a must is a whole lot of tension between the fmc and mmc. I’d prefer for the mmc to be a bit, for a lack of a better word, dominant (think the mysterious, protective troubled type with a hard shell who’s actually quite the softy)
EDIT:
Just to clarify: I do not want an mmc that goes around and kills everyone who ‚dares to touch her‘. Neither should he be obsessive or controlling (except in the sheets). The fmc can hold her own and he knows it. Also no ‚hes only nice to her’ mmc. Absolutely no physically or mentally abusive mmc (think non con or unnecessary anger he takes out on her etc.). In short: I don’t want a creepy asshole mmc. Just a troubled green flag who has a hard time showing his green flag tendencies. Also, pls no pick me vibes from the fmc.
