Tatyana sat in Geri's lap, her arms wrapped around Geri's neck resting her head on Geri's shoulders. The light in the room was dim illuminating only Tatyana's back which was covered in a mid length white silk robe. Her legs wrapped around Geri's mid section as she held her tightly. The darkness had hid the scene which had just transpired. The darkness had always been an ally to the young Severide, allowing her to avoid detection and mask her presence, but today it would hide her transgressions.

Geri never did know where it started, how it started or why. She had tried when she was younger to analyse herself, break her own mind and decypher her own past. The thing was, in her relentless pursuit she found her answer, only the answer was not the one she had wanted.

"Why are you rubbing your wrists?" Geri asked as she could feel Tatyana's hand moving behind her back. She could also sense Tatyana's discomfort radiating from her unfiltered thoughts.

Tatyana immediately stopped rubbing her wrists gasping apprehensively as she pressed herself into Geri a little more squeezing her, well she wasn't exactly sure what Geri was. "My wrists, they feel like burning." Tatyana replied coyly.

"Pain is a state of mind, is it setting your limits. We have to push boundaries to discover your potential." Geri answered sliding her hand around Tatyana's waist slipping them under her robe so she could caress the skin on Tatyana's back. It was the added touch of intimacy, the attention to the subtle details that would beckon the young Russian into submission.

"Potential?" Tatyana asked curiously wondering what potential Miss. Severide referred to. None of these training techniques were in any literature she had ever read.

"To expand your horizons. To garner a strength unthought of, to become a woman to be both admired and feared. I am going show you how to turn your fear into an ally. When I was younger, I used to fear such things as pain and darkness. Now, pain is my greatest pleasure and darkness is my blanket. What others consider a disadvantage you can turn to an advantage, or atleast have some fun." She said with a slight snicker.

"Is this means to resist torture?" Tatyana inquired.

"Yes, it will render most techniques moot however there is more to the art of interrogation. You will not need to concern yourself with such things you are simply an analyst." Geri retorted.

"What if I wish to become more?" Tatyana replied.

Geri smiled. This girl had a fire within her and a desire to please. Still there was something about her that was, compromising Geri. Her mind could not rationalize the emotion, all she knew is she felt good. She took her hand brushing Tatyana's hair lightly. "One day at a time young one, you have much to learn." She cooed. "How are your wrists?"

"They still hurt." Tatyana whimpered.

Geri scowled digging her nails into Tatyana's back.

A wanted to cry out but she immediately buried her face into Geri's shoulder.

"How about now?" Geri asked again.

Tatyana clenched her teeth as she forced herself to resist the sharp pain of Geri's nails piercing her skin. "They are much better, thank you miss." She groaned.

Geri's fingers now straightened as her hands rubbed Tatyana's back. "Why did you choose this post?" She asked flatly.

"I did not choose this post, it was chosen for me." Tatyana replied turning her head on Geri's shoulder leaning in to give her a soft kiss on the cheek.

"Don't lie to me Tatyana. You aren't chosen to come to this place." Geri quipped.

Tatyana blushed. Even though Geri could not see her face she could feel Tatyana's embarrassment. "I finish near top of class, I have been told I am gifted."

Geri pulled Tatyana back clutching her by her shoulders. She locked her steel blue eyes onto Tatyana's deep brown eyes so intently Tatyana felt as though Geri was staring into her soul. "You must never fear your potential. It is meant to be revered, you must always show presence, confidence."

Tatyana smiled lurching her face into Geri's stealing an embrace. Normally Geri would have pulled back, there arrangement had rules, but in this case her student was demonstrating her understanding of her lesson and displayed a confidence despite knowing the consequences.

As they separated, Geri spoke up. "That's all for tonight, get dressed and go back to work." She ordered.

"Yes miss." Tatyana replied obligingly lowering herself off Geri's lap as she walked towards the nearby lavatory.
