The ancient tradition of virginity verification continues in this hushed, holy space. The young priest, his hands trembling slightly, begins the rite. The girl, her eyes downcast, stands before him, her body tense with anticipation and fear. He reaches out, his fingers brushing against her thighs, feeling the heat that radiates from her core. He hooks his fingers into the waistband of her underwear, pulling them down to reveal her naked flesh. His breath hitches as he sees the untouched, delicate hymen, proof of her virtue. He touches it gently, feeling the slight resistance, before pulling away, his face flushed with a mix of piety and lust.
