　　“All my life, I have never been touched by a man. I’ve remained clean and chaste” – Ava Goodchild

　　As soon as his voice boomed through the walls of the dark room, I trembled as I walked in.

　　Posing a submissive stance, I imitated confidence like I had seen most high rank ladies do around here.

　　“C-Can I turn on the lights, at least?”

　　I mumbled nervously, with the insides of my palms sweating.

　　“Very much, dear.”

　　Sort of a coat at the back.

　　That made me see and examine his features. His long dark hair had grown a bit, since the ship. Eyes were still as dark and mysterious as ever.

　　It made my heart beat in various paces, as he made his way towards me.

　　“I never did get a chance to inspect your purity, Lady Ava.”

　　He surprisingly said, using that title.
