"Don't do virgins anymore," Paul growled, incensed to find the girl naked in his bed.

"Who ever said I was a virgin?" she demanded.

"What the fuck did you just say?" he hissed.

Her exasperation was evident. "What made you think I was a virgin?"

He opened his mouth, drawing her scent over his tongue, then snapped it shut as he closed in on the enticing little morsel laid out like an offering to the pagan gods on white cotton.

"Paul, were you keeping your distance because of some misplaced Victorian ideal about preserving my virtue?"

"Not anymore," he rumbled.
