Feeling was dangerous. She was careful to remain impassive
 
 when she walked back into the room. She left the door open, a
 
 temptation for Coralyn to run and flee if anything got to be too
 
 much. She could always leave. Save Giana the immense
 
 trouble that was overtaking her life.
 
 Coralyn was bent over the desk, her hands splayed over the

 She walked around the desk and rested her hand on the flat
 
 of Coralyn’s back, fingering the lace ribbon at the top of her
 
 panties. They’d only get in the way, but she didn’t want them
