Day two at the clinic strips away any illusions Chandra had about professionalism being easy. She's no longer shielded from the work-only expected to withstand it. Procedures that involve hands-on stimulation, measured arousal, and intimate responses recorded in real time. Women learning exactly how their bodies give in. Chandra's role is to watch. Take notes. Stay composed. Dr. Robert Hale runs the room with calm authority, guiding bodies through reactions they can't control, studying every shudder and breath like data points.
And Chandra is supposed to stand there untouched by it all. The clinic demands restraint. Her body isn't cooperating.
