➜ Front Cover Art Credit: @nosugarnohoney on Twitter 🎨 It's been a few weeks since the 'Good Guys' were eventually set free from prison after their one-year sentence (shortened for good behavior), and Mr. Wolf has spent his newly found time admiring all the great things about his new and better life. Especially the people in it. Wolf can't seem to thank Diane Foxington enough for the opportunities she had bestowed upon them, which has slowly built the wolf's romantic liking towards the fox. One evening, the two decide to spend a single night out in the city in order to see what intimate path their relationship may take them down. ➜ This book is by Klondike (@klondikehazel) This book includes romance, sexual content, language, etc. ⚠️Mature ❝ Hey! Klondike here! This is my first ever fanfiction! AND my first ever story about a straight relationship! WOAH! Even though I didn't exactly love the movie, Wolf and Diane completely won over my heart when I first watched 'The Bad Guys'. I absolutely adored their chemistry and relationship with one another, so, I decided to take a crack at writing a short fanmade story about them. It was definitely new, working with existing material instead of my own original content, but it was a fun challenge to see how I'd be able to further develop their relationship from the movie. I hope you guys enjoy what I've written! ❞
