Farrah raised an eyebrow, her lips curling into a smirk. “You should be grateful for that.” She tilted her head, sizing him up. “Most people wouldn’t handle me the way you do.”

Danny’s expression shifted, the hint of a smile pulling at the corners of his lips. “Maybe I just like the challenge.” He lingered on her, and for a moment, the tension between them was palpable. Farrah scoffed, taking a step back. “Well, don’t expect me to make it easy for you.” - by Asianna Frierson
