Let Rorik slake his lust in her arms to keep all of his darker desires under control. Their chemistry is instant, but she begins to have doubts when Rorik declares he's fallen in love with her. She rejects his heart while still enjoying his body because she's as afraid of believing his feelings are real as she is of trusting her own.
