The only saving grace was Red, a rough man with a grizzled voice that set my heart on fire. He was unbelievable hot, with muscles as big as the mountain itself. He made me question my innocence and put thoughts in my head that no virgin should have. All of that happened before he leaned in and told me that he was going to claim me as his own.
