Title: Thrall
Author: Velvet Mace
Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson
Length: Around 100,000 words in four chapters
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Nope...well, I guess there are hints at non-con, but not really.
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: Sherlock is sober, but his life is still spiraling down hill. Despite this, he has resisted the notion of ever getting a mate. The very idea of having a human balancing his life is abhorrent. As Mycroft, a case, and a new flatmate all vie for his attention, he misses the most important clue of his life: that his mate has found him.
Reccer's comments: (This is a sequel to the Mycroft/Lestrade story Mate, which you don't have to read to understand this story, but you should read if M/L is your thing.)
Imagine "A Study in Pink" told with everything pretty much the same except that Sherlock is a powerful vampire and John is one of those people suitable to be a vampire's mate, though he doesn't know it. Here's an excerpt from near the beginning:
"Sherlock looked up, suspicious. A short man, normally of stocky build but now hiding his thinness under a loose checked shirt and a heavy jacket, limped into the room. Soldier hair cut. Injured. Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome – still shedding vitality, willy-nilly like he expected his life to end any moment. Mouthwateringly eager to have some monster snatch him up and steal away his blood, take him to the brink.
"Sherlock let out a breath. Mystery solved. Just a twitchy ex-soldier. For a second he'd been worried the man might be a mate or something."
Very fun and super hot like only Velvet Mace can make it!
