Just started bawling my eyes out, because I'm tired and I heard a noise and thought it was my cat. Then realised I don't have a cat anymore.
Anyway, how's your Monday morning going.

Today's DNF (smut edition)
Her consent is taken incredibly serious, but three pages on, she's giving him head in while he's asleep. After he clearly told her, he does not want to go down that road with her.
