On the rooftop Christine told Raoul, "When the time comes we shall leave, but if I then refuse, you must carry me off by force!" Erik later said to Christine, "If you loved me, I would be as gentle as a lamb; and you could do with me as you pleased." But would either of these predictions come true? And…should they? "Your hand at the level of your eyes," said the Persian...

After overcoming a childhood filled with abuse, young adulthood plagued by shame, and a lifetime of solitude, Erik finds himself married to the woman he adores. A mysterious box sent thirty years ago to his cousin raises questions and stirs the ghost never far behind, while two men resurrect the horrors of his time in Persia, and an acquaintance from long ago unexpectedly returns.

Erik and Christine consummate their marriage by the shores of the underground lake. Everything they do is watched and noted by an individual who has crept stealthily into the dark realm. What repercussions will it have for him? For them? Contains sex scenes. I do not own "The Phantom of the Opera" or any of the characters.
