A store full of temptations. “Would you like to try our new black licorice wheels? They’re bitter, sweet, and fun to eat! You look like someone who likes things that have a bite.” She would say as she slowly, and sensually put on plastic, loose-fitting gloves. “You can carefully unwind the licorice wheels and eat them as licorice ropes if it’s easier on your teeth. It’s a relaxing part of my nigh...
