"Jealousy and greed were a twin-headed snake that had not even shown her face, and yet Sherlock could already feel her coiling around his throat and flexing her fangs oh so dangerously close to his jugular. She was a looming phantom; a sickening nectar that always managed to find its way into his veins; a vision of what the future held." Sherlock Holmes can only be described as a deluge of curiosities, despite being a man of his work (and only his work). Intrigued, Julia Ruth Fuller writes to him as often as possible from her drab home in Glasgow, living with her parents as a recently unemployed waitress, trying to make end's-meet. Upon hearing that her aunt, Martha Hudson, is sudden ill, she manages to scrounge up enough money and finds herself flying to London to be at her side. Before she knows it, Julia has to make sacrifices and face her fears, all in order to bring a stop to London's black market organ trade.Complete

The victim wouldn't have struggled if the door wasn't locked in the first place. A voice yelled, "Help!" It came from behind the door. Marcus turned around to see if anyone had followed him upstairs, but then he saw no one except a painting on the wall. "Leonardo!" the voice yelled again. "Stop playing games with me. Get me the fuck out of here! Right fucking now!" "Gianna?" Marcus yelled back. "Is that you?" There was no response for a moment. He was assuming that the woman was assessing the situation. "Gianna?" Marcus yelled again. "Hey, it's me! I'm getting you outta here!" "Marcus! How did you get in here?" "Don't worry about it!" He punched the door knob like a clueless idiot, testing if it would break that easily. But he guessed not. All he got in the process was a half-broken knuckle. "Stay away from the door!" he yelled at the woman. "What?!" she replied. Marcus decided to take a few steps away from the door, positioned his shoulders at the right angle, and inhaled a small amount of air for his chest to relax. He allowed his mind to grab the momentum. Afterwards he called it a start and rushed toward the door, like an angry bull upon seeing a red flag.Complete
