A Shambles in Belgravia by Kim Newman (who wrote the highly entertaining alternate history / vampire literature mash-up Anno Dracula series), is part of the BBC’s Sherlock Holmes website. Newman’s story isn’t about Holmes, though; it’s about his dark reflection, Professor Moriarty.
The story is subtitled Being a reprint from the Reminiscences of Col. Sebastian Moran, Late of the 1st Bengalore Pioneers
, and describes Mortiarty’s encounter with Irene Adler (the one woman Holmes is said to have admired). It starts: To Professor Moriarty, she is always that bitch.
