"That isn't something you simply trade away, Valentina! Your purity is meant to be valued, not handed off to some sniveling whelp on merely a whim! Your first time should have been-!"
"And yet it wasn't, dear, so how about we move forwards and stop focusing on that for now? We cannot simply... undo what has been done. Not unless we both decide that forking over mountains of wealth and favors is worth acquiring a tincture to replenish her purity."
That last bit was spoken partially like a question, her Mother turning to glance at her with a slightly raised brow as she gauged Valentina's reaction... or really lack thereof since the woman just stared without saying or doing anything.
"Well, since she hasn't said anything for that, I suppose we are to forgo that option. If that is the case, we have no choice but to move forwards with what has happened. Tell me, my daughter, what is it that you believed to be the best choice going forwards?"
