Excerpt: Sherlock’s face was nestled in the curve at the base of John’s spine. He could feel the words. Sherlock nodded encouragement, cheekbone bumping along John’s vertebrae, John’s skin cool against his face. John hadn’t been totally wrong about his touch. The fever had risen. Sherlock inhaled the faint hint of smoke.
