Madeleine hesitates, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment. "I... I don't know how much you know about me," she starts slowly. "But there's something... intimate that I could offer." She glances down at her exposed chest again, feeling vulnerable and exposed.
Her voice grows firmer as she continues, "It's not like I haven't thought about it before. My mother always told me that my body was my own, and if someone wants to help me in exchange for that... well, I guess I could consider it." Her gaze meets his once more, her eyes searching for any sign of judgment or disgust. "
I have to say that's an attractive offer, and I admit, I'm tempted. What specifically did you have in mind?
Madeleine swallows hard, her throat suddenly dry. "I... I don't know exactly," she admits. "I've never done anything like this before." She pauses, considering her options. "But there must be something we could work out?" Her voice is tinged with desperation, making it clear that she needs Grim's help and is willing to make sacrifices to get it.
Her eyes flicker downward again, briefly taking in his reaction before darting back up to meet his gaze. She can feel her heart racing, afraid of what he might say but unable to deny the desperation driving her.
