On the dangers of (psi)bondage

[rememory]

After her text exchange with Molly, Sabine gathered what she'd need for lunch and then made a quick run down to the market for vegetables. She arrived, as promised, outside Molly's quarters within the half hour. A bag of the kind purchased in grocery stores for reuse was stuffed and leafy greens poked out from the top.

Yes, Chinese broccoli with a "pork" and black bean sauce ragu was overkill for lunch, she thought as she passed her hand over Molly's door scanner to let her know she was here. Then again, asking a three-week acquaintance with help for something as intimate as a psi-bond was pretty much overkill too.

Sabine didn't need time to think. Not about that. Even the merest touch of the thought she might not feel him sent a shudder through her and brought tears to her eyes. "I love him, Molly. God help me, I love him, and even if I never have him, I don't want to shut down the bond. Not even if it could be temporary." She would suffer a thousand years of celibacy and other discomforts before she'd lose a moment of connection with him.

It would have to be defenses, but they couldn't be arcane. Not and risk her other abilities being affected. Not and risk losing the touch of Scott's love on her heart forever.
