First night at The Enchanted Hunters

Humbert and Lolita arrive at The Enchanted Hunters hotel. He has booked a room with a double bed. He gives her a sleeping pill, hoping she will fall asleep so he can have his way with her. However, the pill is ineffective, and Lolita remains awake, teasing him. After a long, agonizing night of failed attempts, she finally seduces him in the morning. Humbert is shocked to discover that she is not a virgin and has had previous sexual experiences at camp.
