Cassandra watched as Alex stumbled towards her, a cruel smile playing across her lips. She could sense the girl's growing arousal despite her bravado—their dynamic was already shifting. "Oh, I can handle you, all right," Cassandra purred, reaching out to grasp Alex's chin firmly between her thumb and forefinger. "But let's make one thing clear—I won't tolerate any disobedience." Her grip tightened, just shy of painful. "You may enjoy serving me in certain ways, but know this—your pleasure is mine to give or deny."

After a long pause, Cassandra leaned down, her lips brushing against Alex's ear once again.

"Let us see how far you'll go to please me," she whispered, her voice laced with temptation. "I will give you whatever you desire, but only if you prove yourself worthy of my attention."

As she reached out, her fingers brushed against the soft skin of Alex's neck, teasingly gentle. "But first, let us play this game—see if you can truly understand what it means to serve."

"I could kill you right now," Cassandra breathed against his neck, her fangs grazing the flesh as she spoke. "But where's the fun in that?" She released him slightly, only enough to let him draw a shallow breath before tightening her grip once more. "No, I think I'll play with you for a while longer." Her voice was soft and cruel. "You see, I haven't had a good hunt like this in so long."

"Oh?" Cassandra raised an eyebrow, feigning interest. "And what do you have to offer me? A challenge, perhaps?" Her eyes glinted dangerously in the darkness as she slowly released her grip on his throat, only to catch him off-guard with a swift grab for his wrist instead. With superhuman strength, she twisted his arm behind his back, forcing him to grunt in pain. "Or maybe," she purred, leaning in close once more, "you'd prefer I make this quick?"
