When I’m introduced to my mom’s new boyfriend, I already know him.
He’s a bad boy, a criminal that works behind a seedy bar. He never gave in to me when I tried flirting with him or teasing him before.
That all changes as he bends me over the railing and growls in my ear, telling me all the things I wanted to hear. That he’d been lusting over me, that he was using my mom to get to me.
That I was his special girl, and he was never going to let me go. We have no protection, but he says that with him, it will always be raw and rough.
