Summary
Evie flopped down on the sofa in the library of the Zamalek house, kicking her shoes off with a groan. What a day! She had been up since six and at the Museum since eight and now, some ten hours later, all Evie wanted was a stiff drink and a good dinner, followed by a long period of peace and quiet before bed. But they were making progress on the mess, thank God. Today she and Rick and their helpers had finally gotten the last of the books off of the floor and back onto the shelves in their assorted sections. Now she faced the gargantuan task of alphabetizing everything. Evie groaned.

Summary
"I am sorry," Rick says, apropos of nothing, when they’re a few dozen kilometers outside of Cairo.
The sun has almost finished setting, and Jonathan is already snoozing away atop his own camel, but he and Evy are still awake, spurred on by their closeness to civilization. They haven’t spoken much in the last few hours, so his surprising apology pulls her out of daydreams of a warm bath and clean clothing.
She tilts her head back to ask him what he’s sorry for, but he continues on before she gets the chance. "About that kiss. The one in the prison, I mean. I shouldn't have forced you."

Summary
From this prompt
Werewolves are considered to be animals. They have the same rights as dogs and must be in the care of a pure human. Some become beloved family pets; others, search and rescue or police dogs. The Royal Army buys and maintains a whole unit of werewolves because they make fantastic soldiers.
John Watson is invalided home to the London Kennels after getting shot with a silver bullet. But a werewolf with military and medical training is valuable, and he fully expects to be sold to some wealthy lord or politician. And he probably would have, if a certain unassuming government official hadn't stepped in.
Sherlock is furious at Mycroft's latest attempt to interfere with his life. He doesn't want a pet or a bodyguard, but Mycroft, overachiever that he was, managed to get him both in one unassuming jumper-clad werewolf. One who will be just as dull and stupid and uninteresting as the rest of London, lycanthropy aside. He fully intends to do his best to drive John away.
So it's a toss up on whether Mycroft or Sherlock is more surprised when John actually likes Sherlock.
*NOTE: In the process of updating chapters.*
