The undergarments had been Stovich's then; that took a little edge off the crime. Not nearly enough to quiet the foreboding in his forebrain.
"I didn't mean sodomy as the military laws state it, as in in...muzhelostvo...Major. I meant it by the American criminal definition. Of forcible..." Ocelot found he couldn't trick the word "rape" into crossing his lips. "Congress," he finished euphemistically.
A wife, a child. An unborn child. Things Ocelot had never wanted, and from his own history, could never imagine anyone else wanting.
