Wow, that was awesome! It's always interesting to read people's different takes on Elizabeth's inner workings and I really liked your way of doing things. Stayed very true to the character while developing her more. Also loved the imagery you got across with your use of smells.

For some reason, this line "She knew what his fear smelled like. She’d breathed it in from the base of his neck once upon a time." just stuck with me at the very beginning. I love it.
