Baroness Goes On A Strike Novels & Stories

Someone should just beat his ass. "So you're still prideful at this moment, humm, do you think you can maintain your hunger kicks in, you know amongst the four of us you are the weakest right now. It seems like you went all out yesterday. We have more time on our side compared to you so you better think fast.".....

There was only one Sterling I knew. Only one sterling that would derive joy in pulling this kind of stunt. “Your husb–” “Don't you dare finish that statement.
