SEX WITH THE VIRGIN MAID by KIARI HORSFALL

Stuck Between A Rock And A Hard Place

Bryce was furious. His breathing had gone from erratic pants to an outburst of cusses and swearings. The last thing he had expected was walking into his building to see Hera leaving with someone else and the worst part of everything was that it was none other than that

No. He knew that Hera was way too cultured for that. She would never go against her principles to be with someone but then what if she did? He knew that he was supposed to trust her but now, he just didn't know anymore.
