Victoria was going to enjoy toying with him and gauging his reaction. She was an expert seductress and a superb judge of character, she was confident she could gently guide this delightful, handsome young man and fan the flames of his curiosity.
She cupped her chin and smiled mysteriously "Well I am not the sort of Lady who goes about corrupting the future of this country's academia minutes after meeting them". This was the intellectual equivalent of "kiss chase", Victoria would stay tantalisingly out of reach and Daniel would follow her conversational lead until she was defining their relationship without him ever realising it.
Daniel frowned at her playful patronising he knew he should say something cool about him being plenty corrupt already or that she might be surprised how wicked he was already but he was sure he'd sound utterly lame. He also knew he had to respond else she would assume, quite correctly as it happened, that he was just a naive innocent with a crush on her. He was not in a position of strength in this conversation but he was sure he was eloquent enough to hold a conversation on any topic and so pressed forward "You have to remember as a history student I've seen a few evil looking torture devices in my time...it'd be quite interesting actually".
His feigned academic interest didn't fool her for a second but she was delighted that he had insisted on finding put more about her lifestyle "Curiosity killed the cat remember" she purred and opened a document she'd put together on male chastity belts and female lead orgasm control". She handed it to him to read and waited for him to digest just how far out of his depth he was
Not out of his depth yet. Just knee deep in it.
