An Extra’s POV

"Uwaaahhh! It feels so good to finally feel your touch again, Master!"

The warmness of Emil's voice, and the jiggly feeling her slimy body had as it rubbed against him made Rey laugh. He couldn't deny that it felt good to have her optimistic voice echo in his ears—the same voice he considered annoying in the past.
