And thank you so much for joining us once again. It is the Nightly Pleasures podcast. Episode number 54. I am your host and author of the piece you're about to hear today. Today, just a simple story. Something that's been requested for quite some time. Something maybe a little bit overdue, especially since things have been a little bit harsh,

a little bit more BDSM focused recently.

It's time for something a little bit softer, a little bit easier, something without any trigger

warnings whatsoever, something just to soothe you on in.

This is the kind of piece that I imagine you soak into a long hot bath with or

get a glass of wine and get real comfortable with.

It's a little bit of a slower burn than most, and, well, I think that's enough setting it up.

Without further ado, I bring you for us.

Oh, hon.

Oh, baby, I'm so sorry. Oh, no, come here. Come here. Let me give you a big hug.

Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no. Shh, it's going to be okay.

It's not your fault.

Hey, come on.

Come on.

He was never Prince Charming.

Let's face facts.

Don't...

Okay, okay.

Too quick for that.

Come on.

Sit down the couch.

Oh, I'm just so glad you came over.
