Introduction

Stephanie, a determined and ambitious young woman, aspires to prove her worth among the best minds in the field of solving homicides. But when she finds herself assigned to the infamous, brilliant, and rude Theodore Trancy, Stephanie's anticipation is tainted by apprehension. Trancy's genius as a homicide detective is matched only by his acerbic personality, leaving Stephanie in a whirlwind of emotions.

Little did Stephanie know that Theodore was hiding something that set him apart from ordinary humans. As they delved deeper into their investigations, subtle hints began to emerge, suggesting that Theodore's exceptional deductive skills might not be entirely human in origin. His uncanny ability to read people and solve cases with supernatural precision raised questions Stephanie couldn't ignore.

Meanwhile, their fiery dynamic led to a night together they could not ignore, and so thus began their fake relationship. Fiery nights of passion with no shame and calming Theodore's mother in the hopes of marriage.

As they continued to work side by side, Stephanie found herself drawn not only to Theodore's brilliance but also to the enigmatic aura that surrounded him. There was something magnetic about him that she couldn't resist, even as she tried to uncover the truth behind his peculiar talents.

With each case they tackled, Stephanie became more convinced that Theodore's secrets ran deep. She struggled to balance her loyalty to the BAU and her growing feelings for her intriguing partner. The boundary between their pretend romance and genuine emotions blurred, leaving them both unsure of where the act ended and their true connection began.

In the midst of heart-pounding investigations and electrifying encounters, Stephanie and Theodore's guarded hearts began to thaw. The more time they spent together, the harder it became to deny the undeniable chemistry that simmered beneath their surface animosity.
