"Technically, it is not your fault that you are, well, so attractive."

"Julian Haas."
The pair of raven-black eyes locked onto the pair of grayish-blue eyes.
The person who interviewed Julian was not Dr. Lily-Anne Koch, but her deputy, Dr. Harold Schwarz. His first question after he read through Julian's CV had nothing to do with the latter's academic achievements at all.
"Are you married?"
Julian blinked rapidly, forcing down the urge to incinerate his interviewer with a withering glare.
"No."
"Are you mated, then?"
"..... No."
Dr. Schwarz looked him up and down several times before he sank back into his seat and sighed.
"How can someone as pretty as you be unclaimed?" His words were as sweet as honey. His gaze, however, held a hint of something less complimentary.
