The Rani was coming down the stairs from the opposite direction, uncharacteristically lost in thought. Ace's words had given her something to consider-in particular the fact that the question of an apology to Namor was anything even worth considering in the first place.
She heard footsteps below and stopped.
Oh, Pythia's tits. It would be Namor. She paused a moment, seriously considering fleeing.
No, he would...what would he do? He could kill her easily with his strength. However, she'd return to life shortly after, and even recover soon enough. He could beat her to a bloody pulp. That would certainly last longer. It might even feel good. What would that solve, however? She would still be the same brute, enacting her experiments as she pleased, whether he killed her or not. It was pointless.
With a snarl, he roughly shoved her away, releasing her. "Go while my mood is pleasant. If I see you again after my mood has shifted, I will slay you."

And, once he'd got hold of her arm, definitely stronger.
"Release me!" she snapped, though she was genuinely starting to worry.
