'Are you mad?' her friend shrieked. 'I'm coming home,' she decided.

'No!' Melanie cried. 'Don't do that, Sophia! I know what I'm doing, I—'

'You're a babe in arms when it comes to men, is what you are, Melanie Portreath!' the other woman derided. 'Have you stopped for one minute to think what his motives are for suggesting such a wicked thing?'

Oh, yes, Melanie thought, she'd stopped to think. The word HOT lit itself up in block capitals, followed by the word SEX!

'He will rush you to his desert hideout and lock you away there while he waltzes off with your son! It's the way they do things over there! Get behind me, woman, and all that!'

'He isn't like that,' she said, agitatedly twisting the ring on her finger.

'All men are like that if they think they can get away with it!'

'You don't know him—'

'Neither do you! You just slept with him once—'

Twice, Melanie silently corrected, then closed her eyes and thought—three times if you counted the last feverish grappling.

"Then he took off, with your virginity etched on his belt,' Sophia was saying, with no knowledge that Melanie had just taken off to a place she knew she should not be revisiting. 'And left you behind with the word slut etched on to your blasted forehead!'

Melanie blinked. Sophia was right. She had walked around for years thinking that word was branded on her brow. She hadn't dared trust herself with another man just in case he believed it and treated her the same way that Rafiq had done.

'Do me a favour, Melanie, and don't do anything stupid until I get back,' Sophia said urgently. 'Then we will grab your lawyer and sit down to talk through all of this.'
