Beatrix reports for milking on schedule. The Black doctor never misses a measurement or an opportunity to claim more.

Rowena's white coat stays on while her hands take over. She records the output first, then cups and sucks until the milk flows steady. The doctor's dexterous fingers work with clinical precision that turns possessive. Every command deepens the hunger neither woman can name. Appointments run long after the clinic closes as the deadline approaches.

The grant depends on perfect records and strict boundaries. Beatrix cannot risk losing the only touch that claims her, even when the rules tighten.

Rowena's hand stays on her shoulder with the door open.
