Perversions
The journey begins... She led me down a dark, deserted street well after midnight, the sound of her high heels clicking on the wet pavement only added to the sense of wicked, dangerous excitement... The whisper of nylon as it caressed her leather wrapped body as she moved was driving me insane... As we approached the entrance she turned, smiled and led me into the the night... that changed my life forever.
