"Emerald Maree Pearce, a 25-year-old psychologist bestowed upon with an out-of-this-world beauty, screams the concept of elegance with her voluminous and bodacious features. 
Jordan Calix Kale, a 34-year-old man, however, wasn't considered just an ordinary man.

She had told me to let it be and to not worry about it, but when I had attempted to push it further, she had snapped at me and sent me off to bed."
