Frantically, she searched for an excuse, her eyes widening as she found one.
"My knee is bruised. Can we postpone it tonight?" Her words came out as a plea, her body frozen in place, unwilling to approach the room any further.

"You said we could skip it if either of us was tired. I am in pain. Let’s do it tomorrow night," she swiftly employed his own words in an attempt to persuade him.
Seconds ticked by, and he continued his unhurried approach. There was no response to her request, and she contemplated making a desperate escape. However, the door was locked, and even if she screamed, no one would dare defy the Alpha.
