It can be frustrating to be... well, her. Her situation was singular and stands out amongst others in terms of complications. Her life has never been her own and when she was assigned a personal guard like Benedict after years of having her own sort of autonomy since the death of her husband, it was a blow to her highly valued independence.
In the end, it had turned out better than she could have expected, although it could still end poorly if they are not careful.
Speaking of careful, he is always so damn gentle in all things with her, even when he makes his demands, they come out as requests even when he's cross with her (which has probably been known to happen). So despite the roughness of her actions, he keeps the kiss sweet.
"Like you mean it," she commands softly against his mouth, always trying to coax him towards something more, always edging towards a little danger. For all the moments they've stolen together, he always stops it before it can get really interesting or something stops it for them.

And it's getting harder to deny herself.
