Summary
Valjean meant to toss the rose he carried into the rushing waters below but he could not—his fingers would not part with it, no matter how many times he moved to let it go. There was a metaphor in that, he thought, but he was not yet ready to examine it closely.
The sensation of Javert’s presence wrapped around Valjean like the wind as he walked—it did not cradle nor comfort but chilled him through and through, like the cold metal of a shackle clasped around his ankle, trailing a heavy chain. He had long imagined the man’s gaze on him even when it was not, but perhaps now it would follow him forever, no longer bound by the restrictions of flesh and blood.

Summary
When the crew of the Surveillante pull a siren from the water, Capitaine Javert decides it is better to hand it over to the authorities rather than kill it outright. But the sea holds more perils than one vexing siren, and Javert could find his command tested to its breaking point.

Summary
"Such is the nature of man. It is written into the framework of man’s being, this yearning for the mate of their soul, and it is their ultimate purpose to be joined. So man’s life is spent in a constant chase, reaching for completion. This yearning is so ingrained in man’s soul, in their body, that a soul will feel even the physical pain of their mate’s body, and bear the marks that their mate wears on their flesh."
The tale of a righteous man bound to a convict, from youth to death, in an attempt to number the scars of his flesh and his soul.
(Or: In a world where soulmates feel each other's physical pain and are marked by each other's wounds and scars, Javert struggles to reconcile his connection to a prisoner of the bagne with his sense of justice and morality.)

Summary
In the galleys, Jean Valjean is feared by many. Guards... Convicts... Who wouldn't fear a man who is stronger than them? As far as they know, Valjean is an Alpha, judging from how he acts. If only they knew what he really is, they wouldn't believe it.
