Beryl Patmore

The adventure of the Beryl Coronet. A case of Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock Holmes is a fictional private detective created by British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Referring to himself as a "consulting detective" in the stories, Holmes is known for his proficiency with observation, forensic science, and logical reasoning that borders on the fantastic, which he employs when investigating cases for a wide variety of clients, including Scotland Yard. First appearing in print in 1887's A Study in Scarlet, the character's popularity became widespread with the first series of short stories in The Strand Magazine, beginning with "A Scandal in Bohemia" in 1891; additional tales appeared from then until 1927, eventually totalling four novels and 56 short stories. All but one are set in the Victorian or Edwardian eras, between about 1880 and 1914. Most are narrated by the character of Holmes's friend and biographer Dr. Watson, who usually accompanies Holmes during his investigations and often shares quarters with him at the address of 221B Baker Street, London, where many of the stories begin. Though not the first fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes is arguably the best known, with Guinness World Records listing him as the "most portrayed movie character" in history. Holmes's popularity and fame are such that many have believed him to be not a fictional character but a real individual; numerous literary and fan societies have been founded that pretend to operate on this principle. Widely considered a British cultural icon, the character and stories have had a profound and lasting effect on mystery writing and popular culture as a whole, with the original tales as well as thousands written by authors other than Conan Doyle being adapted into stage and radio plays, television, films, video games, and other media for over one hundred years. This is one of the cases of Sherlock Holmes. Giancarlo Rossini Real ePublisher

However, rebels threaten the peace and Amaya is forced into play as she is the remaining princess to deal with the lycan king, who happens to be the mate who rejected her. ******* "Can I know why?" I croaked blinking away the tears that tried to leak out of my ducts as wind blew around us l, carrying my hair everywhere. He looked at me, gaze hard, cold and condescending. "You're not enough. You can never be enough." I knew he hated me, I just wished it wouldn't be this much. I shifted my weight on my feet, dropping my gaze for half a second before looking at him again, my heart breaking over and over. "Why? Why can't I-?" I stopped, choking on a sob. "I'm your mate." ***** I never imagined I would learn so much about him through heartache. I had never felt this broken before and I was barely holding myself together. "What do you want me to do? What should I change?" I begged, almost dropping to my knees. His lips quirked up slightly and amusement played in his eyes. Was he finally letting me in? "There is one thing," he replied with a wry grin. "Maybe you could just not exist. I don't want you, and I wish I never met you."

YOUR PICTURE

Namaku Arvin Melviano Yahya. Aku seorang fotografer muda. Bakat memfotoku berkembang, sejak kelas 2 SMP. Maka tak diragukan lagi, jika rumahku dipenuhi piala dan piagam lomba fotografer. Selain suka memfoto pemandangan alam. Dari tanah ke langit, dari yang kecil ke yang besar, dari yang terlihat hingga tak terlihat, seperti penampakan hantu yang tak sengaja tertangkap di kameraku. Aku sangat suka memfoto fenomena indah matahari tenggelam. Jangan heran, jika melihat dinding kamarku dipenuhi foto sunset, hasil jebretanku setiap sore. Hidupku adalah ketidakpedulianku. Masa bodoh, mempunyai teman atau tidak. Aku punya segalanya. Ayahku pengusaha terkenal di Indonesia, aku bisa menghasilkan uang sendiri dengan memfoto dan mengedit foto, ketampananku tak bisa diungkapkan lagi, kecerdasanku jauh di atas rata-rata. Namun, aku sedikit pendiam. Kegengsianku sangat tinggi. Prinsip hidupku, aku takkan menyapa siapa pun orang yang tak kukenal. Mungkin itulah, penyebab semua manusia segan berteman denganku. Kecuali, gadis-gadis yang mengidolakanku. Sejak aku dimasukkan di grup Mahasiswa-Mahasiswi baru di Whats App. Setiap malam nomor gadis tak dikenal selalu menerorku, bahkan ada yang lebih gila, memintaku jadi pacarnya, tapi ada pula yang berbeda. Seorang gadis kristiani, nama lengkapnya Clayrine Christa Beryl. Aku memanggil singkat namanya, Ay. Karena bagiku merepotkan sekali memanggil nama panggilan orang yang panjang-panjang. Ay mengirim chat padaku. Ay ingin menjadi temanku. Ay satu kelas denganku di kampus. Aku menerimanya menjadi temanku, walaupun bagiku Ay sangat menyebalkan. Kecantikannya membuatku jatuh hati, keceriaannya membuatku bahagia, kejujurannya membuatku selalu salah tingkah. Namun, penyesalan seumur hidupku adalah aku terlambat mengungkapkan perasaanku.
