"As far as you know, I could be."
8Mina bristled*
"You know nothing about me except that you have found me standing alone on a rooftop. And yet this small bit of information was enough to give you ideas."

*Julian straightened and brought his face closer to hers, his gaze deep in hers.*
"Ah...ideas? Tell me, madame...what ideas are these? Please...read my mind."

"Ideas of blatant and non-creative carnality."
*Her voice was clipped as her temper wasr running lout.*

*Julian calmly lifted his brow.*
"Are you suggesting that I approached you only to get to know you? In the biblical sense, of course. Can't a man proposition a woman on a rooftop to other purposes?"

"You have me intruiged."
*She raised her brow*
"What other propositions were you referring to?"

*Julian leaned back, his eyes still tightly on hers. He seemed hesitant.*
"I am not certain I want to tell you. You seem to already have such poor opinions of me...I do not want to tempt further displeasure from you."

*Mina almost smiled at this*
"Now you have me really curious."

"What if I were to tell you that I meant to have no business with you at all?"
*Julian walked towards the edge of the roof casually.*
"What if I told you that I was up here seeking private solace?"
*He looked back to her with a cold but curious stare.*
"Would you even believe me?"

"Perhaps."
*She put her hand on the railing*
"A less interesting answer, but a satifactory one."

*Julian's smile peeked slightly.*
"I did not say that was the reason, I simply asked if you would believe such things."
*He glanced over the city ahead of them.*
"What would you have desired my answer to be?"

"What I would have desired?"
That you had found out information pertaining to my case and were eager to share.
"That's hard to say."

*Julian turned to face her more properly, leaning on the railing.*
"And why is that? Do you think that I would not give you what you desire?"

"Since my husband's death, very few men have."
*She smiled cooly*

"Then I began at a disadvantage."
*Julian looked back into the night.*
"If there is no pleasure to be brought you this evening, perhaps the polite thing to do would be to leave you in peace..."
*His hand slipped slightly over hers.*
"Is that what you want?"

"I am not entirely closed off from male companionship."
*She bit her lip*
"What is your name?"
