“You don’t like it?” she asked. “I do. But you make me forget that I must behave.” Lorrie looked into his eyes, which were a shade darker than the summer sky she was used to. “Oh, don’t behave. I am so weary of always behaving.” “Good.”

“Besides, I had to keep you alive,” Ewan said, thinking to make light of the situation and thereby erase some of the shadows from Neil’s eyes. “We couldn’t have the only virgin in the group dying before he bedded a woman.” As Ewan had wanted, Neil turned and scowled at him. “I’ve bedded women.
