Punched Quote by Kristen Ashley
““Lee had made it pretty clear that I meant something to him and this was the cause of the joy that I couldn’t quite tamp down. He didn’t like me thinking I was a quick fuck. He didn’t like me crying. He didn’t like me trembling. And he really didn’t like it when Terrible Teddy punched me in the face.””
