“I’ve seen your rush, Circe. I saw it in your eyes when you struck my face and when I fucked you. That night you recognized something in me, too, that you have within yourself, and in truth, that is why you let me have you. That’s also why you returned to me. This rush can be both a thrill and a blinding rage. You’re ashamed of it, but you’re not afraid of it. So, when it comes, you’d rather pierce your skin so no one else sees you.”
