Valeria didn't rush. She never did. Inez was pinned beneath her, wrist locked overhead, the hold precise and impersonal. Not pain. Control. Inez scoffed anyway. "That's it?" she sneered.

Reese's voice was soft, almost too soft for how sharp her words came. "No. I've just been... close." Noelani finally turned, eyes meeting hers. "You always this quiet when you want something?" Reese's lips barely moved. "I'm not quiet because I want you. I'm quiet so you won't run."
