Temptation


Her pupils are enlarged veins ripping through her skin profusely sweating she feels like she needs it now though she has been doing so well the urge is too much to handle the world is motionless her breathing erotic as her body is engulfed by trembles the withdrawal becomes too much to handle her hand wraps around the syringe her grip tightens stronger, stronger, stronger until the syringe hits the floor her will to be sober has won this battle
