Summary
He didn't indulge in sweets often, not in a long while. And never like this.
It was like just his mother's, and it wasn't.
So different from how he remembered, yet it warmed him from the inside out, just as it did when he was a boy.
It tasted like Ariadne. Her bite. How she burned down his throat and boiled in his stomach. An addictive delight, tinged with the inescapable aftertaste of regret that plagued a treat. Something that tasted too good to resist, though he knew better.
Her heavy-hand, and decadence.
Her affection for him, overwhelming as it was unapologetic.
He didn't need his mother's torte. He needed hers. And now that he got a taste, he was ravenous.
It awakened something so deep-seeded within him he didn't recognize it at first. He didn't know how to appease it. Dredged from his depths, it ordered his acknowledgment with the same loud insistence that begged her consolation.
All he could do was reach for her.

Jonathan is six, and Beth is eight, and Beth is nineteen and dead.
She figures she can break down later, when he’s not there to see it.)

Summary
The year is 1800 something, England. You have just inherited the Valdivian estate of a distant uncle of yours. However, due to law and you being a woman, you cannot publicly claim the house as your own; otherwise, you'd be forced into a marriage with no input of your own, so you must remain inside as often as possible to avoid word getting out. Thankfully, the servants of the house are a friendly bunch, ensuring your solitude is anything but lonely. However, letters of love started appearing in your window from a secret admirer. You aren't sure who it could be, but you have taken a liking to the attention. But even as your heart leans toward your mysterious poet, your gaze keeps straying to another. A timid chimney sweeper who can scarcely meet your eyes, let alone speak a word, yet something in his awkwardness charms you. The more he recoils, the more you find yourself drawn in, unbeknownst to the secret he holds.
