Evander watched as Nell talked of Harry and he relaxed. "That's good. To have someone looking out for you, especially when it's hard for you to do it on your own, it's helps."
He listened to what Nell said and smiled, nodding, thinking candor would be best. "I was a love slave in the palace of Cordoba. I was taught to be whatever the one I was with wanted, and haven't been a virgin since I was 12. No full blow hysterics I promise."
Instinctively Evander reached up and gently caressed Nell's cheek when he grimaced before he realised what he was doing and pulled away. "Sorry."
