Jade Bahr Posted June 23, 2024 Author Posted June 23, 2024 He's incredible hot in 1923 and so is his character (if you ever looking for a horny show @Lilja K I can highly recommend this one). The pictures don't do him justice at all It's also the best Yellowstone story so far imo. Even though I also liked 1883. (dedicated to @SongokuKing satisfied?) Quote
