Example Sentences
- "Starting all that again, should her horse collar sprout the fresh flowers of her grovelling desire. When she said, “I want a baby Henry,” it sounded like some grim confession. “I've got cancer.” “I had it with your best friend” “I want a baby, Henry.”[…]"
- "She lay on the bed and pulled her miniskirt down to reveal her horse collar. 'Well, pull it off,' said Audball. 'I'll have to take my boots off,' she warned. Never had Audball smelled anything so putrid, rank, foul and rotten as when she pulled off her boots.
