The Mayor of Dowel City, Richard Davidson, also attended, and he came with his son, who was in a wheelchair. "Mr. King! Look! I can now stand for a minute!" The mayor's young boy said, referring to Adrian."Excellent, Brice," Adrian greeted. "Soon, you'll be able to stand longer!"Yet again, Adrian

Dawn felt the pain, but as soon as Maxwell pinned his bare body against her, the pleasure returned. The fact that they were skin-to-skin gave her a different level of happiness.“Max,” Dawn shut her eyes, noting how it felt to have something long and big inside her.It honestly scared her at first,
