Johnny will rebound, three quarters of a million will afford him the space to decompress and take stock of the situation and reassess. I simply have the feeling that Bruce was not comfortable basking in someone else’s limelight and his need to value both himself and career took precedence. Johnny and Violet had best prepare for the resulting storm of acclaim that’s about to come their way….

Hey @weinerdog…first on Pg 2….

I think Owen has been completely overwhelmed, overloaded, overlooked, and just plain taken advantage of. Jules was right, what do you want Owen?

I have a suggestion 😁

Well now…what to make of this….Hopefully Oliver realized something was wrong….

If Darren wants to put the fear in his enemies and purported friends, he simply has to sic Mother/Grandmother on ‘em… Dowager Baroness Adela swept into the room. She was breathing heavily, her silver hair slightly frizzed, her jaw set in a line of absolute, murderous indignation. She had refused to take the winch-lift—"I am not a sack of milled grain," she had famously declared—and had instead climbed the five hundred agonizing

Yeppers…the universal truth…the mothers axiom… May you have children just like you… One other note, when I came to this story, it was marked as Temporary Hold. Don’t know if it was on purpose or not….

Congrats Ben on your GA anniversary and your hard work and talent shines through!

Not much time for our alpha to be woken…the question is how? Evelyn calmly stacked the files together. "I rejected all six." "How long do you have?" I asked. Evelyn considered. "Two months. Maybe less."

It would seem to me that Brian is suffering from being placed on the altar of high expectations….that much is expected from him from a place where no one listens to him… I told him everything was perfect," Brian whispered. He reached out and absentmindedly tapped the edge of Tommy’s notebook with a blunt, short fingernail. "I always tell him it's perfect. But sometimes, Tommy... I sit in these classes, and I feel like I’m running out of air. Like everyone is watching me, waiting for the first step where I stumble. If I fail one test, or if I get dropped to the second team... the whole thing just folds."

Will we have a confirmation of the de-pantsing?

As always thanks for this!

DSB is a deadly affliction that can strike many males of this particular species at any time, lasting for indeterminate periods. While there isn't a vaccine, regular wrist exercises, alone or otherwise, have been known to effect a temporary cure. In cases where regular wrist exercises aren't possible, the afflicted may suffer from any number of symptoms, from hairy palms to genital and regular warts. Eyesight may be affected as well, and those suffering will find surgery not an option. The eyes will continue to be affected, resulting in eyeglasses with thick lenses.

This was a fantastic chapter, Levi is beginning to see that he can call this place home!

Why do I get the feeling that this lady "of means' just might be a retired 'working' lady....One who could give old Albert a run for all he owns.... August best get a move on quickly....

So...there is a chance...

Monday, without my pants. Me too and thinking commando!!!

“Then what’s it like?” He leaned back in the booth but he didn’t look relaxed. He looked like a spring being held down. “Because from where I’m sitting, every time I think I’m finally seeing you, there’s another wall behind it. The funeral home. The closet. The girl. The ring. Every single thing I know about you, I had to find out by accident or pull out of you by force. You don’t offer, Owen. You get caught.” He paused. Let that land. “You’re gay. And hiding it. Let's see...just do we know about Ryder??? The only acceptable sandwich is roast beef...forget turkey or ham...and a war could possibly break out over 'others' choices... He works roofing, when not possibly other construction jobs, hence the paint under a thumbnail... He rides a beat-up motorcycle, higher education is a no-no...is he out, loud and proud??? I mean...who in the fu&k does he think he is to spout off like that...exactly where was he the least bit forthcoming? COLE...for god's sake block Owen's number!!!!

I wonder if a group elders will seek out Ephraim and try to bring him to justice, most likely not, but it would be interesting to see. This was a sad and very powerful chapter and well done!

Well, there are no more secrets to be had, other than the ex-wives finding out…and I am sure they are going to be very upset….

Thank you for this! Will you cover both Julian and Darren’s, along with the Vanguards return from Jaffa?

I like the odds providing Reynard hasn’t more help hiding in the shadows….

Phew…I thought there was an ugly confrontation coming up, guess it will be in the next chapter… I thought so…..

I suspect Neil is in transit to Munich…

A profession to be proud of and a secret shared and kept!
