The answer was obvious even if she didn't want it to be. She hunted.
First step was to find the willing prey, usually between twenty-five and thirty with amazing bone structure and thin wrists. Easily lead away from the herd of other young women with a smile and the promise of something more than conversation offered by the glint in her eye. A quick drink or two, names exchanged and then the obvious if dangerous question about going somewhere quieter.
They always ended up at her apartment; she refused to take anyone home. Ad lib roommates and pets, and finally they were left on the sofa, drinking something, usually cheap but effective where she took on whatever guise was necessary for the desired result. That first moment when eye contact slid into lip contact and there was a warm body beneath her, soft breasts, hard hips.
When they finally made it to the bed those thin wrists fitted into one of her hands easily as she pinned them to the mattress to the whisper of more. The game finished, she left before morning with no promises to call and no regrets.
But Casey was waiting for an answer and if she could put her answer so succinctly, it proved it could be done. She forced her hand through her hair and fought to answer.
"Forget I asked," Casey said, and started to open the door of the car.
Olivia grabbed her arm. "It's hard to explain."
It was only then, with Casey's arm beneath her's, that she noticed how delicate her wrists were.
