Maybe if I hadn't been quite so tipsy, I would have been more wary about inviting a strange spider back to my place after meeting him literally less than twenty minutes before.
I blame the booze, and the fact that he is damn cute.
When I'm in a dominating mood, I can never resist the shy, submissive types, and my loss to Tippy had definitely made me want to assert my will over somebody.
Jervis, however, had other ideas.
I had no sooner let him on and given him the brief tour when he announced his intentions. I turned around to see the uncertain guy I'd picked up had morphed into a lustful predator who was ready to pounce.
I swear my life flashed before my eyes, and the last coherent thought I had was annoyance that I was going to wind up in the paper as "Idiot lets giant spider in his house and gets what he deserves".

Jervis and artwork were created by , who is okay in my book.
