At night I find girls to f*ck. I live to hear them moan for me, but one night is all they get. No one ever made me want more.”
9. The Design by R.S. Grey: “Five minutes until the interview begins. Fresh on the heels of her college graduation, Cameron Heart has landed an interview at a prestigious architecture firm.
