James held her tightly then and kissed her hair and her cheek before whispering beside her ear, “You gave me your first time to me. I had you in your purest state.”

“No, I’ve been defiled…”

“Shush.”

James pressed a finger on her lips. “It’s in the past, and I’ve punished the people who hurt you. They’ll spend the rest of their lives in jail, and I’ve instructed their jailmates to make sure that they wish they were dead.”
