“Nope, but I’d love to gloat. I’d send him the sheets that I fucked you on.”

“You’re a pig. Let me up. You better burn those sheets.”

When they’d come back from their shower, she’d freaked out when she caught sight of the blood and cum that had mingled on the sheet. Damon had taken over. He’d pulled the sheets from the bed, and much to her dismay, he’d tossed them in the laundry basket, but she’d wanted them burned.

“Not going to happen. I’m keeping those sheets. Probably won’t even wash them.”

“You’re sick. I need to go to the bathroom.”

“You do realize men pay a lot of money to bed a virgin,” he said.

He still hadn’t let her go.

Turning her head, she gritted her teeth. Speaking was so hard for her. “Don’t you realize, I did sell mine, but I’m never going to see any of that money. My sister spent it, remember? Either impressing a boyfriend or snorting it up her nose. Hey, maybe this went in her vein.” Tears filled her eyes as she thought about it, and she needed to get away from him. “Let me go. I get it. You’re a big strong man, but I need to use the damn bathroom and that requires you to let me the fuck go.” She rarely cursed, but right now, she was losing it, big time. She needed to get away from him, and that meant going somewhere else, and just trying to collect her thoughts or at the very least, stop crying.

She hadn’t cried in a really long time, and she didn’t want to start now.

“I’m not letting you go.” He cupped her face and forced her to turn to look at him.

She didn’t want to look into his eyes, so she forced hers shut. It wasn’t the brightest idea, but it worked.

Tears leaked out of her eyes though, and against all of her fighting, she opened them to stare at him.

“Please don’t look at me,” she said.

She placed a hand on his face and she expected his laughter or mocking, but when he grabbed her wrist and pressed a kiss to her palm, she knew he wasn’t going to tease her about this moment.

“I don’t know why I’m doing this. It’s crazy,” she said.

“Last night was a lot to take in.”

“And you’re an expert.”

“You’ve nothing to do with your sister, and yet here you are, taking her place. You should have let me take her last night and do what I had to do.”

“I couldn’t stand by and let you hurt her.” She shook her head.

“Is that why you take care of Alex?”

She frowned. “Alex? You left him alone.”

“But he was ready to get himself killed.”

“I came home late from a night shift at a lawyer’s office where I worked, and he was sitting in the stairwell, cold, shivering, starving. His mother didn’t care, and I took him in. He had a warm couch to sleep on, and some hot soup. I did what anyone would have done.”

“You’re a fool to think that anyone would have done that.”

“It’s what nice people would have done.”

“You don’t fit in with the apartment building you’re living at. Your sister responsible for that, too?”

“You have no idea.” She covered her face, wiping the tears away. “Can I please use the bathroom?”

“Tell me why you were saving your virginity and I’ll see about letting you go.”

“Seriously?”

“You can go as soon as you answer my questions.”

“This really bugs you, doesn’t it?”

“I’m a curious guy.”

“Curiosity killed the cat, you know.”

“Or it keeps them out of bad situations. Come on, tell me.”

“It’s not for a guy or anything. To be honest, it’s lame.”

“Tell me.”

“There’s eight years between us. Rose is older, and she was always having sex with everyone. I saw it so many times, and I guess I just … I didn’t want to be someone who was thrown away. I wanted to be someone that was cherished.” She shrugged. “It doesn’t matter anymore. I’m not a virgin.”

“But you’ll always be a virgin to me.” His arms loosened. “See, that wasn’t so hard.”

Rather than stay and ask him about that, she escaped the bed and headed to the toilet. Some things in life didn’t need answers.

****

Walking into his kitchen, Damon flicked on the coffee machine and listened as it started to whir. Last night was a lot of firsts for him.

First virgin.

First shower together where he took care of her.

First snuggle.

First night in bed with a woman in his arms.

So many firsts, and this morning was filled with them too.

First time a woman tried to get away from him.

The first time a woman couldn’t stand to be in his arms.

It was also the first time he’d been concerned about a woman’s tears.

When a woman started to cry, he was always out of there.

The sound of his door being knocked on filled the apartment. It had to be one of the guards he kept close and who worked for him. They were the only ones who knew of his apartments around the city.
