$4.99 Lantin, Derek
Add to cart$4.99Add to cartHalf an hour later I’m still workin’ an’ I’m makin’ good progress. But I get interrupted. The chick is gettin’ bored sittin’ in bed by herself. She calls out with a real soft voice an’ summons me to some more arduous tasks in the bedroom. I slurp down another drink to damp down the fires of lust.
“Natalie,” I tell her, “I’ll be with you in a few minutes. I just gotta finish this last check-list.”
But she wasn’t to be put off. She undulated into the room, came behind me an’ put her arms around my neck. Her naked little body seemed to glow in the half-light of the room, her bare arms were silken an’ brown. Lights were dancin’ in her eyes as she pouted an invitation to me.
“Pleease..,.” she purred.
By that time I was pawin’ the ground for it. All I could do was get my kit off an’ jump into bed.Quick View -
