XXXIBritain Means BusinessAlex2027 It wasn't often that the chief shareholders of Reuters-Fox UK ever chose to address the senior staff, but the celebration following the landslide General Election victory for the Conservatives was a special occasion. It clearly deserved the attendance of those whose wealth financed the loss-making news media empire and who...
Sometimes Rhianna hated being Master's favorite. First, Master had forced her to fellate and have intercourse with the outsider- the man who said his name was "Joseph Gray." She hadn't minded the intercourse, but she did not appreciate being forced to do anything without having a say. Now on top of that humiliation, Rhianna had been told to drag the body o...

A new home and a new school. Being the quiet, anti-social person that you are, your parents were fed up with you staying in your room all night and not socialising.
