“I can’t handle ames, my lady”

“I never play games It’s all about what I want, and when I’ll deain, let go to take a turn under his arm, and then came back to him, a piece of footwork that couldn’t help butcan a real bush you can think of”

“I can guess your exact weight We do that at the fairs If I guess right, you have to buy ain soh pressed to the inside of his so she grazed his aching balls Her hip slid across his groin and her lips parted The bloody tease

“I don’t lie But I can tell you, your body couldn’t be ainst her hair, she stilled on the outside, while everything inside hi in the scent of soft female flesh He wanted to taste her, put his lips under the ear, bury his nose deeper into spun gold silk Hewith his breath the shell of an ear so delicate it looked like so found broken on the beach sands He hadn’t been to the ocean in a long tiht out of his mind and whispered the number to her

When her head turned, he stayed where he was, so her nose brushed his jaw and he could see the moistness of her lips up close
