Summary
As a young boxer who is fighting her way through the underground of London in order to survive is recruited for Jim Moriarty's criminal network, things begin to take new turns and Sebastian Moran is forced to reflect on his relationship with his boss before it's too late.
"He sits motionless, like a spider in the centre of its web, but that web has a thousand radiations, and he knows well every quiver of each of them. He does little himself. He only plans. But his agents are numerous and splendidly organised. Is there a crime to be done, a paper to be abstracted, we will say, a house to be rifled, a man to be removed – the word is passed to the Professor, the matter is organised and carried out. The agent may be caught. In that case money is found for his bail or his defence. But the central power which uses the agent is never caught – never so much as suspected. "
-Arthur Conan Doyle, The Final Problem

Summary
Your home in Sokovia was destroyed when Ultron decided to make it ground zero for his attempted coup of the world. Everyone had lost someone – some more than most. You? The family you’d worked for had perished – save one. The rumors were that he’d been locked up for war crimes – that he’d used his family’s reach, and fortune, and found a way to wield the assassin known as The Winter Soldier.
How is it that they happen to turn up in the same city at the same time, just when you’re starting to get your feet under you again? Madripoor is dangerous enough without the scent of blood in the water, seeping from old wounds that you’d thought had healed.
*** Explicit rating/ smut starts up around chapter 6 ***

Summary
There was definitely something wrong with her. Normal people didn't have semi-regular sex with known criminals. And even the kind of people who did have said semi-regular sex didn't alternate it with evenings curled up on the sofa watching Downton Abbey.
A story of ethics, societal expectations, self-determination and moral relativism. Oh, and kinky threeway sex.
