Jared Abitol is ugly, past his prime, and desperate for love.
Years of being hyper-aware of his own looks have made Jared develop social anxiety. When you look like Jared, love isn't easy to find. Jared might not have the looks or confidence, but he has the money, so giving up on love and settling for the next best thing, physical intimacy, is all he can do.
With the help of a colleague, Jared reaches an agreement with a college-age youth called Darnell Miller. Jared pays his college fees and rent, while Darnell puts up with shitty sex with an older man.
Sounds simple enough, doesn't it?
It's not.

Insatiable (UNDERGOING REWRITES)

And I know you're wearing those goddamn tight panties. I can see the outline of them underneath your pants." To prove my point, I dipped a finger down the back of his pants, tugging at the lace that lay beneath it. Julian moaned lowly, his breath starting to come out in airy pants. He pushed back against my hand and forward against my chest lightly and I complied, moving so he could stare up at me as he gripped my hair between his slender fingers. "What should I do about your teasing, professor?" I drawled before the smaller man smirked. ~ Nolan Daniels loves college. Not for the school part of it, no.

But he was okay, because he was Jonathan. And Jonathan was the happy kid, the life of the party, and he didn't have any problems in life. Right? Sending him to an institution with five other boys in equally deplorable mental states is just an excuse for him to run away from home, not because he needs it. Obviously. The important thing is that Jonathan will continue to be perfect...until he isn't.Complete
