unfortunate that you’re so bent on destroying your body along with other people’s.”
    The few seconds that followed changed the entire playing field in a way that Daniel would’ve never predicted. For one, he’d never seen so many sparks flying from a woman’s eyes. It transformed her. Truly. And he got terribly aroused, perhaps interpreting the strength for the maturity he mentally wished upon her.
    “ Is that so?” Calm and collected. “Well I think it’s unfortunate that you seem to totally enjoy standing between women’s legs all day long. By the way, what on earth possessed you to become a gynecologist?”
    H oly hell, look at her. He suddenly wanted to explore the unnamed and odd emotion her fiery behavior evoked in him. “Possessed? It’s a respectable profession.”
    “For a man?”
    “Why not a man? It’s the female body to me, nothing more. Strictly anatomical. If it weren’t, I wouldn’t be in the profession.” The lie came out silky smooth.
    She regarded him like a strange anomaly. “Are you gay?”
    He barked a laugh , having a hard time playing angry victim. “So, because I have self-control with my body and mind where women are concerned, I’m gay?”
    “You’re a man, men have chemicals and instincts--not something you can help.”
    “Well this man can help it. Does that bother you?”
    “No, it doesn’t bother me that you can control yourself, it’s just…uncommon.” Seemed like she wanted to say unheard of. “So, you’re saying you never have any sexual reaction? Ever?”
    “God, no.” He pasted a convincing disgust on his face.
    “Do you date?”
    With every word he was convincing himself that he could manipulate this strength to serve his need. “Do you?”
    “I asked you first.”
    “When I want to, yes.”
    “Are you a virgin?” He gasped a laugh at the ballsy question. Then she smiled, a saccharin smile. “Come on doc, you talk about this kind of stuff all the time with women. Not a big deal?”
    He stared at her, completely thrilled that he was back in the game. But how to answer? Maybe irked honesty. “Okay, fine. Yes, I am a virgin.” Aside from the disgusting sex forced on him. 
    Watching her attempt to hide her shock was kind of priceless.
    “ And I’m not a virgin,” was her flustered comeback that made as much sense as his need to continue fighting. He was not a fighter. But with her, it felt more like…an erotic rubbing up against.
    He put a hand on his chest in all sincerity. “I’m so happy for you.” 
    “I didn’t mean it like it’s such a great thing. I was just…I just thought it only fair you know what I was. Or wasn’t.”
    “I don’t judge people by their sexual activity, Sofia.”
    “Neither do I , Daniel.”
    “ So, why did you ask mine?”
    “Just…curious. You’re different. I just wanted to know --”
    What was wrong with me ?”
    “No, that’s not what I said.”
    “You didn’t really need to.” He liked the way her eyes looked when angry. Clear and sparkly. How would they look sedated with pleasure? Panic stirred inside him at the idea he wouldn’t get a chance to find that out.
    “ Look, I just wanted to know, that’s all. Not what was wrong with you, or right with you that you--”
    “Aren’t normal. Like other men.”
    “Oh for fuck’s sake, stop finishing my sentences.” She rolled her eyes and sighed. “Okay, fine, I wanted to know just how different you were. I don’t give a flip that you’re a virgin any more than you care I’m not. But not being a virgin doesn’t make you a slut.”
    “I never said it did.”
    “I never said you said it did.”
    Three seconds of silence and challenging stares ensued and Daniel was rock hard. “Fair enough Miss Sofia.”
    Her eye lids lowered to pissed half-mast. “You don’t believe me. Just say it.”
    “I don’t believe you.”
    She huffed and shook her head, staring at the space before her. “And why the hell should that bother me so much?” she
