Inara had been acidly warm and welcoming when Saffron came to her capsule, the sweet smile emphasizing her anger. Saffron knew Inara didn't like her here, which made this all the more fun.
"Oh darling, you look positively ill with exhaustion," Inara said, her brow puckered in mock sympathy.
She was cold now, cold and shining and distant, but Saffron knew her game.
She remembered the glint of Inara's dark hair as she'd crushed it in her hands, how her mouth had the heat of a thousand burning stars.
"All in good cause," she smirked, and enjoyed the feeling of power.
