[Sherlock's body is practically vibrating with desire. He's ready now, ready to do whatever she wants him to. She said before she'd have him on a leash, and if she truly wanted that, he'd let himself be collared, let himself be bound to her by a chain or a strip of leather just for the chance to be bound to her. He'd beg for whatever she wanted him to beg for. He'd be on his knees for her if she wanted, when he's never shown deference to another human being in his life. She doesn't even need the restraints if she doesn't want them; she's making him feel and because of that he wants to feel more, feel whatever she wants him to feel. Because of that, her words and her will can restrain him however she wants.]

[Now that he's given up control to her, for the first time in his life, he's actually free--free to be a man, his soul exposed, and free to be an animal, seeking base pleasure--rather than a heartless thinking machine.]
