Actually wound up doing two stories for this day, this is the second. The first I decided not to post because I actually have plans on using it as the basis of a full-fledged novel. Think it's long past time I swallowed my fears about failing as a professional writer and just went for it, so while I probably won't make it as overtly kinky as it was in the original short story, a lot of the setting and character details there are just too good not to expand upon.

Still, I hope you all liked this particular take on the entry instead. I had more than a few ideas for this prompt running around, but in the end, Dianna is right. There is nothing quite like getting lost in a good book...

Another entry for @Kinktober-2024
