She had been avoiding me for the past few days.
Or at least, she had tried to.
But I could see it. The way her hands would shake slightly when she passed my cell. The way she lingered just for a second too long when she thought I wasn't looking.
She was unraveling.
And I knew exactly why.
She was thinking about me. Obsessing over what I had said. Losing sleep over the possibility that I still had something on her.
And the worst part?
It wasn't just fear keeping her up at night.
It was something else.
Something she didn't want to admit.
She wanted me.
The thought of me having control over her, of knowing she was at my mercy, it did something to her. Something she hated.
Something that soaked her panties when she laid in bed next to the husband she no longer loved.
And tonight, she finally broke.
I heard her before I saw her--her footsteps coming down the tier, moving faster than usual.
Then, the keys. The quiet click on the door sliding open.
And there she was.
Her breathing was shallow, her expression tight, but her eyes--those eyes--they gave her away.
She was flustered. Aroused.
And she hated it.
I smirked, leaning back against the cement wall. "Couldn't stay away. Huh?"
She slammed the door shut behind her, crossing her arms. "I need to know."
I raised an eyebrow. "Know what?"
Her jaw clenched. "You know what."
I exhaled slowly, letting my eyes wander her body, taking my time. She was in her usual uniform, but the top two buttons of her shirt were undone, exposing the soft curve of her collarbone. She was trying to act tough, but she was giving herself away in all the little ways.
I smirked. "You've been losing sleep over me, mami?"
Her breathe hitched, just barely, but I caught it.
I leaned forward, resting my elbow on the wall. "Tell me the truth. When you're lying in bed at night, when your husband is asleep beside you, do you think about me?"
Her nostrils flared up like usual. "Shut up."
I titled my head. "Do you touch yourself?"
"Stop."
I let the silence stretch between us, watching the way her fingers twitched at her sides, the way her thighs pressed together involuntarily.
