David narrowed his eyes when Caroline remained motionless. âSo, you want me to handle this myself?â
Fine by him, as she just had to lie there while he took control.
A simple touch would tell him all he needed to know.
Gripping both of Carolineâs wrists and pinning them above her head, David swiftly unfastened her nightgown.
The faint fragrance of her recent bath lingered on her skin, momentarily distracting him.
A surge of desire flared within, but he quickly crushed it with reason.
If she had already been taken by another man, claiming her now would only repulse him.
A woman in his life had to be pure, no exceptions.
Caroline lay flat on the bed, eyes fixed on the ceiling, drowning in humiliation.
She ceased resisting, knowing it was futile.
âDavidâ¦â Her voice trembled. âYou donât need to do this.â
âOh?â
âEven if you check, suspicion will linger between us. If Iâm innocent, youâll still doubt me. If Iâm not, youâll only grow angrier.â
Davidâs gaze hardened. âAnswer me, are you a virgin?â
âI am.â
Caroline responded without hesitation, knowing even the slightest pause would doom her.
The truth of her pregnancy or that night with Nash at the hotel couldnât come to light. The consequences were unthinkable.
Davidâs expression remained stoic. âYour words mean nothing. I need proof.â
He stripped her fully, tossing her clothing aside.
Caroline bit her lip hard, goosebumps rising on her skin.
She couldnât bear this invasion, being treated like a possession.

If Elizabeth had dared to accuse her, there had to be some truth, or so he believed.
Caroline, you better be clean!
Caroline quivered, instinctively trying to close her legs, only for him to force them apart.
âWait!â she shouted just in time. âI donât know what lies youâve heard, but if you must check, I have one condition.â
âSpeak.â
âBring an experienced older woman to conduct it,â she said firmly. âI canât accept your method.â
Davidâs eyes narrowed. âIâm your husband.â
âWeâve never consummated anything,â Caroline countered, clutching the corner of the pillow. âI refuse for my first time to happen like this. If you doubt me, let a woman handle it. Thatâs the only way Iâll agree.â
He scrutinized her, expression unreadable.
âThe woman will be someone you trust,â she added. âThatâs my final request.â
It felt like an ancient ritual, as if she were a maiden undergoing scrutiny for a kingâs approval. She felt helpless, humiliated, and tormented by the ordeal.
After a tense silence, David relented. âFine.â
Caroline exhaled shakily, turning her face away to press silent tears into the pillow.
Moments later, David left, and an elderly woman, thin and in her seventies, briskly entered the room.
