Working for the Big Bad Wolf

by Olive Spencer

For the girls who always wanted the men they couldn’t have, this one is for you.

I shouldn’t look at her like she’s my next meal.

“Filthy, deplorable, degrading things. Things that would end my friendship with your father.”

“Clearly, you don’t know me as well as you thought, sweetheart. You’re Little Red Riding Hood, and I’m the fucking wolf.”

“When we’re finished?” “When we're finished, I’m going to take you home and fucking devour you, little girl.

The reasonable side of me tells me to make her first time special, to make it something she’ll remember. The devil on my shoulder chimes in with a better idea: take her to the bathroom and give her something she’ll really remember.

I’m going to devour her. I’m going to corrupt her. I’m going to make her mine. She just doesn’t know it yet.

“Settle down, Little Red. I told you, I’m the big, bad wolf for a reason. I’m going to eat you, I’m going to devour you, I’m going to leave you a quivering mess on this tile floor, and I’m going to make you beg me for more. The wolf always gets what he wants, and right now, princess? I want to watch you come undone.”
