This bathwater might as well be steaming from my own rage. I'm going to get this motherfucker, and I'm going to get him good. Turning my back, I rinse off, watching dirty swirls move around me as flakes of dirt hit the water.
The force of his commands compel me to rebel. Take my freedom- take my choices- and expect me not to fight back? No. Serafina Markovic will always fight back.

"Done?" his voice clips.
With my back still turned, I smile. The water has grown cold now, but things are just getting started. My stunt before was an act of desperation. Caged like a wild beast, I lashed out like one. Now though, I know I need to take my time.
I don't know what he wants from me, but I know it comes back to my father- or at least the Royal Suns. He could have easily killed me by now- it isn't about that. Money, mostly likely, is his end game. I can wait it out, play the hostage until my father pays up.
I've pissed him off, that much is obvious. A man enraged isn't pliant. He won't be easy to work with now that I've dug myself into a hole.
You've got to be smarter than him, Serafina.
My father's voice sounds in my head. "Rabota ne volk, Serafina —v les ne ubezhit." Work isn't a wolf, Serafina. It won't run into the woods.
No one is going to do this for me. I have to do it myself. I have to make him want me- make him want me around at least. That's the only way to get what I want.
Turning, I put on a pretty smile. "Ready."
