TWENTY-SEVEN

Edgar

Evaleen was joking.

She must have been joking. She thought I was making fun of her liking romance, and now she was pretending to be a romance author.

“What do I have to do to convince you I like romance? Dress up like a romance hero? Here look.” I reached under my seat pulling out my black leather bag. In it I had the latest book I was reading. I held it up to her. “See, The Mighty Scotsman in Disguise. I even dog-eared the page I’m on.”

“Oh my God.” She flung herself back as if I threw a spider at her.

I shook my head. “It’s just a book, Evaleen. It’s not going to hurt you.”

Why can’t a guy like romance? When I told Henrik a few years ago he laughed at me for an hour. Of course, he had the emotional maturity of an earwig so I didn’t expect anything better.

“Why are you doing this to me?” she whisper-screamed at me, pushing the book back.

“Why are you doing this to me, Evaleen? So what if I read,” I lifted the book and read the author’s name, “Annabelle Blacksmith’s books? It’s the twenty-first century; I don’t have to live the stereotype of only reading thriller or sci-fi or books about war. I enjoy reading about human emotion and relationships. Plus, I like ending a book with a smile on my face.”

“Okay. It’s not that I don’t believe you, Edgar. Did you not hear what I said? I’m the author. I’m Annabelle Blacksmith.”

I laughed as she stared at me. The laughter died as I realized she was telling the truth. Evaleen Bechmann, the most in control and sexually repressed woman I had ever met, wrote romance novels. Not just that, but she wrote some of the steamiest sex scenes I had ever read.

If she was a virgin, how could she write that?

Either she was lying about being the author or about being a virgin. I could handle the joke about being an author, but if she was making up being a virgin then I felt used. I don’t understand why she would say that just to get me in bed?

I would have been happy to have sex with her last night. In fact, I was hoping to have her last night until she mentioned she was a virgin.

Maybe that was it. She didn’t want to have sex with me. She was horny and I was there, but she didn’t want to go all the way with me.

“So, if you are a virgin, Evaleen, how could you write those sex scenes? Huh?”

Evaleen groaned. “Just because I’m a virgin doesn’t mean I don’t know about the birds and the bees. I know how things work down there, and I’ve read enough romance books to get a good idea of what readers want to see when their characters get down to it.”

As everything sunk in I decided she wasn’t lying. About anything. Evaleen was a virgin and a romance writer. And she was good at what she wrote.
