Summary
Karen Page thought death would end Wilson Fisk.
But now, when she sleeps, he’s there--whispering from the dark corners of her dreams. Each night he finds new ways to break her mind, twisting her memories into nightmares so vivid she wakes screaming.
Frank Castle is being haunted too. Their shared peril pulls them together again as they desperately search for a way to free themselves... But to stop Fisk, they’ll have to accept the truth about what they are to each other, or what waits in the dark between sleep and death will take them both.

Summary
**Completed!**
“What are you really asking me, Matt?” Karen asks, looking up at him. Matt doesn’t answer immediately, taking a sip from his own glass and considering it, running his fingers over the smooth surfaces as he delicately chooses his next words.
“What’s going on with you and Frank?” he finally asks bluntly.
Screw delicacy.

Post DD:BA 1x09, Matt confronts Karen about her relationship with Frank.

Summary
It must have been Karen who’s summoned him, Matt thinks, although how she’s gotten in touch with Frank and convinced him to help, he’s got no idea. Frank did always have a soft spot for her — she was the only one he’d talk to, during the trial, and he’d saved her from those thugs shooting up her apartment (although Matt’s still not entirely sure what happened after that— Karen had always been a bit vague about Frank “kidnapping” her from police custody).
He knows Karen and Frank were in touch while Matt was recuperating after Midland Circle— but Karen had also been light on the details of Frank’s involvement when she’d been used as a human shield by that suicide bomber..
Now that Matt thinks about it, there’s a lot of stuff Karen’s been vague about when it comes to Frank.

Summary
February in New York City is worse than February in Fagan Corners. Karen may not know many truths anymore, but she does know this.
At least in Vermont people don’t splash black slush over her boots on the way home from work. They don’t inch along the pavement, acting like they’ve never seen ice despite the fact that Hell’s Kitchen is no Bora Bora. Mostly, no one in Vermont drags crimson red snow into her apartment without at least wiping their feet on the mat first.
