    Summary

    “Why are you doing this?” Her breath shakes, but her voice is steady.
    I twist my fingers in her hair, wrenching her curls from their pins, and press her face against the wood. “Because you’re nothing. Because fucking him won’t make you mistress of this house. Because I can, and he won’t stop me.”

    Summary

    Sherlock is back and all seems forgiven, but something is missing between him and John. Their friendship initially appears intact, but Sherlock doesn't understand why John seems to be slipping away. Finally, in terror, he tries to reconnect with John by taking him to the one place that seems to inspire any emotional interest in John any more: the Canadian wilderness. While there, Sherlock faces his greatest fear.

    Summary

    I have often felt a need of having a woman in my confidence, and I should prefer her to another; but I can do nothing so long as she is not—what she needs to be (letter 54, trans. Dowson).

    The marquise’s growing impatience with Valmont and Danceny in the matter of the little Volanges inflames her own awareness of Cécile's charms.
