"You’re ato do here you coht So males can’t have any self-control None at all"

"They can’t! Don’t be a little bitch--"

"So you’re fucking Paradise, then Behind Craeg’s back Got it Good to know"

The guy frowned "What the hell are you talking about?"

Axe smiled coldly and leaned in "You want that fe bad you can taste it I see you looking at her, pretending like you’re smooth and shit But you ain’t So, yeah, if ot your dick in her le, and you want to talk about a light show?
