My deepest thanks for all of your kind words. As noted in my comments, this story involved quite a bit of research, and all in all, it was fun to put together.

Thank you all for your kind words. This story was a stretch for me, and the research was intensive, as there was so much I needed to keep straight!

Looks like Nathan's trip was fruitful and hope the party went off for the boys!!

Revenge is a dish best served cold....But Orion needs to pay for what he has done... Luc has his fated mate and hopefully Cal will be ok...

Wow...that was well done...and very enjoyable...

Oh my goodness... “Just once,” she says in a pleading tone. “He's been talking my ear off for weeks now…” “Girl, just use the back door, for fuck's sake,” I huff. She grins. “We already did, but he wants to experience a little more…” Really???? Talk about dickstractions... “What are you talking about? He comes like three times at least every time we—”

As @drpaladin noted, I would not be surprised to see Willy James already either at Barnswallow or at Grams! Darnell and Regis have a great chance to find the grandfather, perhaps when things slow down for them, their grandfather could make a claim on the property Regis' uncle has left behind... Runyan has proven to be a godsend, a true hero, a gentleman, and all around friend.

Seems like all is quiet and peaceful on all home fronts, do I suspect a bump in the road coming up?

Thanks for this chapter, let's see if the Judge's campaign continues to catch fire!!!

The following still bothers me...It is more than an infatuation...unchecked urges... From Ch 25: Casey had been patient . . . playing the long game . . . and he figured he finally had Levi where he wanted him. This kid wasn’t that much younger than him, but from the time he had first seen Levi when he had been visiting the school with his father, all innocent and boyishly cute, Casey knew that he wanted him. He had to have him. Then there's this little nugget... Then Casey’s eyes flicked over Levi’s uniform, the same way they used to whenever no one was looking. If I were a betting man, and thank goodness my prognostications in the Secret Author contest will allude to, bear witness why I shouldn't...but....I would be willing to bet that Casey has a need that won't go unchecked if he has anything to do with it...

Good old Dickoless has struck again....and would someone please pull the blinders off Richard....

It sounds like Sky comes from money, which then begs the question...how old is he? It sounds like Gage is a classic POS.... And Gator....lord, how I miss having a dog like that, not quite so big but.... You and me both brother...

Well now, Xavier is in for quite the run, and ride.....

Thank you @Cia for doing this and again thanks to everyone who contributed as well!!! Last time I used my trusty go-to, I got bagled on Powerball tickets too...and so long as there's truth in advertising, it was sheer dumb luck; I got those three... I had Lee Wilson, Cassie Q, so didn't everyone else in this contest... And Bill W correct. My editor said I may be better off buying scratch tickets instead...

From the bottom of my heart folks, thank you for the encouragement! When I finish what I am currently working on and one or two others, there will be a visit back to catch up with these folks!! Remember, it is hard to steal a fish when it is cut up into chowder!!!

Only two folks nearly guessed mine... kileoli and leshwar This was a fantastic effort by everyone, and congrats to all!!!!

Wow...this was an amazing chapter, so much in so few words...well done!!

What we have here is a conundrum to beat all conundrums….my simple thoughts lead me to think that Celyn’s soul as it were, like Marcus’s has not simply reappeared with each reincarnation, but exists as Marcus does. Perhaps on a different plane of existence. I'm wondering if the confluence of all the past lives find a terminus and coalesce, leaving Christopher the holder of fading memories…and the cycle broken. Vale/Maelor has much to answer for…and now my head hurts…

Another fine chapter….love the slow burn… And keep writing, the more you write the better it gets….

Hell hath no fury like a Thompson scorned…I will admit some confusion…do Casey’s mates know he walks the other side of the street? Casey laughed, but it was sharp and ugly. ‘So what, you’re going to run back to your church and your two fag dads and play happy family again? After everything? After you kissed me back

If in fact Casey is gay, and all signs point to his being so…it is a step in the right direction….and this just off the press… Casey had been patient . . . playing the long game . . . and he figured he finally had Levi where he wanted him. This kid wasn’t that much younger than him, but from the time he had first seen Levi when he had been visiting the school with his father, all innocent and boyishly cute, Casey knew that he wanted him. He had to have him. Now what will the aftermath of Casey being or nearly outed?

Slowly, the feelings are growing as they learn more about themselves, we need more than one last chapter....please and thanks???

Well, ' bogan' is a new word for me, and it was a close call as I was laughing so hard at Kim's comment about being 'effulent'...I nearly needed a bathroom run...great stuff!!!

Still quite a bit to narrow down, and I find the blow-up Tim had with his father, and then the reconciliation a bit suspect...

Love it! Stuck on you also works for me; it will feature in a story I am about to publish. It will be in a later chapter, but...just love the lyrics when sung that way.
