I went home with a smile on my face at least I managed to make the billionaire fall into my trap, I know I pass like a bitch in the eyes of some but I swear to you I don't care about these judgments for me, I always get what I want and that's the most important thing girls, you have to know what you want......

Since I saw this woman, I can't get her out of my head anymore, just thinking about her, I'm starting to salivate, it's not that I'm a pervert but I want her to make her mine until the end of time, I hope she won't push me away, I can't even concentrate on my job anymore, I spend all my time thinking about her and her body, apparently I'm all the time at the hotel, still observing if she will come back, I have the impression that I should act myself, since she explained to me the last time that she lived behind the school, I so decided to walk there asking people if they knew her, I had managed to take a picture of her and besides, I found her on social networks, she looks very famous in any case, and indeed I came across a little girl who knew her and who was ready to lead me to her, my dearest NAÏLA, know that David gets everything he wants...... I arrived with modesty and no one could recognize me like that, it's a way for me to be myself for once and I swear to you that it makes me feel good that everyone sees me as David and not the very famous billionaire, once in front of the door of her apartment, she had a hard time believing it, she stayed more than 10 seconds looking at me without even flinching a word, miss you wanted to drive me crazy but I'm the one who's going to tell you Make crazy.. - what are you doing here David?

"You don't know why?" Getting up from the sofa, I approached her, sinking on her lips, the kiss was so soft and tender, I had been dreaming of this moment for two weeks, this devil I want her, the tension was strong, the caresses intense, I touched her everywhere, without realizing it, our clothes had already reached the ground, I wanted to spoil this moment by breaking the silence but she ordered me this.... - Shuttt, continue David, I've waited so long for this moment - your wishes are princess orders....
