I am wondering if he'd used a condom or not. Sounds like he didn't. Is he really willing to play with his life and fuck someone who is in a bathhouse and if he's not using condoms with him, he's not using it with others? I'm wondering why he'd do that?

I think you should have explained why calling him 'white trash' was such a big issue. It seemed like it was more than just an insult. It sounded like there was a story there and that it was a real sore spot. I think that Josh had nerve doing that at the wedding. he should have gotten the balls to address it before then. Whether or not Cory was trying to divert the conversation every time wasn't the problem. He had to say to Cory 'no we are discussing this now.' Not fall into bed for more sex and then go to the wedding and blow Cory and Tina's wedding out of the water. Is that love?

Good op I had a tiny bit of trouble keeping up with all the cops, aside from the more main characters, but we also had some space between chapters. Did you already tell us what is between Boswell and Chase? thank god spencer did a fair job b/c mink was watching. I feel like davey shoulda been prepped a bit more for the part bc he coulda messed it up easily. I was surprised there wasn't any jokes at Chase for playing the part so well. Caceda makes me laugh. I was expecting Chase to go home and celebrate too, esp b/c his little sub is why it's personal, despite his answer to Cagg. I also woulda liked to see him call to let him know he was okay since he left the poor kid with directions to burn papers and run if he didn't come home. Not exactly thoughts to put someone to sleep. Gonna head back to 1 to check it out.

Really sweet chapter. I give Dave credit. After his issues with the ex, it must have taken alot for him to be the one to take that jump of faith and say 'I love you.' I understand Reese wanting to wait to know Dave was falling too, but he wasn't brave enough to take the jump. It is a scary thing to do, but sometimes you have to make yourself vunerable if you feel strongly enough. I was surprised it was Dave who said it first. You dealt well with the issue of Alzheimers. It was hard for me to read that part b/c it remindeded me of my grandpa who died from it. It is a horrible illness to watch someone suffer from. It is so hard to look at a loved one ad know they don't know who you are. I feel for jeff who clearly didn't want to have to put Reese out but had no choice. I hope Dave and Reese can make it work. They seem like a good match. They probably will have to work at it b/c it i relatively early in the relationship and living together is a big step, but I think they know they have found someone special and want to make it work.

Given what we know about Josh, I am surprised they weren't even closer than they were and that he wasn't more than 'just cool with' his being gay. He seems like a good person. Obviously, it is a good sign they are communicating honestly. It is good to have something like scars from a past relationship out in the open. Should make it easier for Dave to open his heart up. I'm glad these two are hitting it off so well. I'd like us to get better feel for their personalities. I'm really curious about these two as individuals and as a couple. What types of things do they like doing together other than the obvious? Will things be smooth sailing or will they still face more challenges? Are Dave's family members supportive? Will his parents ever come around? What are they interested in? Look forward to more.

I got scared seeing th story reviewed. I am surprised they didn't wait until it was finished. I was going crazy thinking you were saying you were finished with so much unfinished business. I thought maybe you were doing a second book or something. At least your responses say different I hope to see more soon. In re-reading the chapter, you see things you didn't remember so it was fun. the whole thing with the kitty feet was hilarious mostly b/c of the inappropriate timing...as he sees if the giant squid is going to secret him away into the darkness, he's contemplating baby takashi's kitty feet. lol I am typically not a fan of polyamory, but with these guys, I can not really see him with just one. that is some good work by you. Moreso, I feel like they've all bonded on a level that might just make it work. could it be something about Mick that makes these personaities able to click like that? The scene where they helped sex away his leftover empathic stickiness made it first seem possible. Takashi and Guy are super territorial men by nature and species and yet I think they could make it work. It tells me maybe it is something about Mick's specie of fae or his abilities which may even be better suited with the regulators off, that make it work. I hope you go into that. Riley is like a cute puppy that would be loved and shared by them all but he also would help smooth the strong personalities. This story has so much more to go. I can't wait to se him deal with the court. Mick is smart and if they give him a tutorial, I think he can work it. I know how he attracts notice by most, but I hope it isn't soley some sexual thing. I can't see his possible mates being thrilled if it is. I am dying to know more about the type of fae he is. What happened to his people? do we know who made such an airtight glamour for him? How can he be useful to the Unseelie court is an important question for them to think about. I know it is a mere side story, but it would be interesting to see Rylie get the ones back who tossed him out. I can't remember the whole story about that. Have to go back. He should use that boon to do so though. I am relieved to see the regulator on his empathic abilities might make things smoother for him. Cutting is a terrible thing. I was much happier to see him use the whole pain/pleasure/sex thing to get rid of it. I hope he can use his abilities still to help people b/c I believe he enjoyed it if not the aftertaste. I still hope to see his relationship with Guy get a bit of room to grow, so if the other two have to go finish some busines or something, that would be great to give him and guy time. He's had time with the others to get to know them better and hasn't had that with Guy. I want more from them as a couple if possible. I think that guy also has had to grow with him since he's young and not really an old fae, so that will be interesting to see him grow though I on't see the territorial wolf thing changing, and i don't want it to. It has to be super hard for him right now, being kept away from Mick. It shows his bond with the guys trusting them to care for him. I am curious about this 'if something can be worked out you can go back' How could he be kept from returning? Well, please update soon. Really want more!

You've kept up the suspense with each chapter which is great. The quiet moment between Dimitri and Talin was sweet. It was good to see Talin finally let down the walls around his heart and open his heart to Dimitri. He clearly loved him before this, even if he didn't call it that to himself, but he was holding back a part of himself. I'm excited to see this reach the climax and can't wait to see how you balance all the characters and events. That was nice to see Lucian knock Sasha out. I didn't doubt him b/c he seemed to be straddling both the good and bad camps from the beginning. There has been a heart there throughout I think. That said, he doesn't have as active a conscience as Dimitri. Him and Raph would be good together with their elastic consciences. I hope Talin doesn't ask Dimitri to leave Kat and Lucas. My heart ached for Dimitri knowing all the loved ones he's lost and Talin too after losing his Gabriel. And having Dimitri watch his father mourn his mom and yet for him to still be strong enough to face losing Talin shows a tough man. great stuff!

Another great story. Keep em coming. I'd love to see the northern lights! Though I could do without the below 0 F temps.

this story fascinates me. I only wish it came up more often! I love how both of them are in the dark to a large extent about his abilities. I'd be interested in seeing Noom ask him more about his cat-side. What did his father know abou t it? It sounds like it wasn't genetic. Clearly, Noom is feeling something outside his control for his scrap, just as Kel is. I find the cat qualities that keep coming out to be entertaining. I do have to question Noom being able to have sex after a questionable guy hiding his identity is seen looking at their room. How could he feel safe enough to sex and sleep? To what degree is Kel still wary of Noom? I find it interesting that he didn't give him the info about dad coming around asking questions to him despite his being in love with him in human and cat form. I quite like this description of Babylon City's different parts. I hope we learn more about Kel's background soon. Please make them take risks seriously b/c part of Noom's attraction is his hard-ass smart street kid persona. Walking up to a courthouse asking questions when dad and the mob are after you would seem too amateur hour for him. And we still have the man in the trenchcoat too. Can't wait for more of these two!

I love how there is still this degree of innocence or maybe just a small sense of the child Felix should have been able to be during certain moments. It makes him even more interesting to me as a character and it makes how Dorian treats him important too. I know that seems like a wierd word to use with a street kid who is into bondage, but it is there at certain moments. I am a bit worried thinking Dorian is going to keep him behind closed doors though. While they have the bdsm side of their relationship, isn't it important for him to give Felix a chance at a normal life which he wouldn't have had on the street? I'd like him to have the chance to work a job for a few hours a week or go to school. Being able to do those things would increase his self-worth and I don't think it would take from the other side of their life together. I guess we'll see. Felix just seems to have a bit too much downtime and needs a bit more to occupy him. Here is hoping the op goes safely! Thanks for the frequent updates. Poor Felix is going to be a bit scared b/c he cares for Dorian just like Dorian cares about him already. That was a sweet moment at the end when felix is clearly worried and he gives him a gentle kiss goodbye.

Really cute and well done. I love the whole drawing a similarity between the way dogs 'get to know each other' and technically humans do the same. We really are animals when you get down to it. Just more developed. Creatively done. Nice to read something different than the norm.

I am surprised that Peter didn't ask more about how the guys were able to form a life together without being talked about or having assumptions made about them for living together. Or is it that they didn't care. I'd have thought he'd be interested in figuring out if Tom and he could live together even if for a few years during or after college. I'm a bit surprised at Louise wanting to have sex and at Tom's easy acceptance, though I assume he figures Peter is not going to suddenly switch teams. I wonder if Anne will be worried at all. Afterall, why would louise suddenly want to experience this? but, maybe she does too and will just say ok and call tom to set a date for them to do the same. Maybe they will visit Louise's the same day.

I gotta give you a high mark for really drawing me in to the simple conversations he has with everyone. You make it seem very natural and I find myself laughing out loud at some of the comments. Overall, Dorian is a witty guy with a good heart which you are showing in small ways like his treatment of Eugene. I hope Eugene manages to go straight! I was glad he did the contract with Felix. And I'm glad he wants him to go to school and it seems Felix wants to. He is offering Felix a real chance in life and a safe place to experience his sexual fantasies. I'm enjoying this story a lot.

I liked this story alot. It worked having it in Colt's POV and showing his emotional background that probably helped shape his career and now maybe his family. I think if you continued it, it would be great to go back and forth between his and Ryan's POV. I'd love to learn more about Ryan and his background, but as a stand-alone it was a positive story that leaves you hoping this is one kid who will be saved. They'd sure have alot in front of them to work through. He'd have to be able to get guardianship if the kid is underage and the boy would have his past to work through, but you are left feeling hopeful. The fact that despite the rough time, there is a less hardened front on the boy and the fact that he accepted the outreached hand would make it more likely he could be saved. Great job. Great use of the blurred lines theme.

I agree that the banter Dorian naturally engages people in is very entertaining, esp. with Felix's and the girls' humor. I'm really looking forward to seeing David in a gay bar. He's not my first pick for undercover given he shows most thoughts on his face and the rest come out his mouth lol. I felt a tiny bit cheated with the scene between the guys. Next time I'd take us through it..not just for the perv in all of us but given a huge part of their relationship is the bdsm angle, it makes sense to show us it develop fully, esp if you want the chance to show it responsibly. Toward that end, I think it would be responsible of dorian and felix to have a convo about felix's experience more fully (or lack there of) and moreso, the direction and rules of their developing relationship. Dorian is older and as the dom, he has to talk things out with felix before they go further. kudos for his taking it slow with him. i half expected to find felix in the cage when Chase got home from work lol. I'm a bit confused as to why Dorian didn't question felix a bit further about where he saw this brand and what it was since it is an important part of the case. That detail might help move things forward. I assume soldier was meant in the context of a gang vs the protecting the country type? I have to go back to find out what exactly the case is that has him going to the gay bar, as he seems to be working on the other case more than his own.

I notice all your responses don't really address everyone wanting more! lol I really liked this. It just felt like such an abrupt ending and like Marcus, I wanted to know where it went. I have a feeling I wouldn't like the answer if you did tell us if you'd continue the story. Captured the imagination.

I found this story for the first time with this chapter update. It is quite enjoyable and interesting. I love the characters and the police story behind it makes it a bit more exciting. I'd like to see Dorian and Felix get to know each other a bit better. Chase can be deep if he gets into the right convo. He does like to teach. I'm a bit confused as to why he won't encourage some small job. I get he doesn't want to see Felix go, but he's got to know that the kid wants to be there. Some minimum wage job won't be enough to support him. But, he's gotta get some life experience and a job would be a good place to start. I don't see Chase wanting to impair him by stopping him from growing. I totally have to look up 'aquascaping' as i'm restarting a tank hopefully soon and want it to be like Chase's. Those are the types of fish I've had in the past and will prob. get and want a cool/attractive environment that fits their needs. I

There is so much in play right now and so many characters to keep track of. My one observation is the guys hadn't checked up on Lucian and Ilia as they ended the day. Lucian wouldn't have been able to 'disappear' without notice. Even Dimitri said they only had a few hours. Does Lucian know the formula to save Talin? Is it that the doctors can't make it fast enough even with the formula or that they can't develop the formula and make it. You made it pretty scary sounding to suffer those effects. I can't wait to see the rest. I would be real careful if I were everyone. Just b/c they are told the master plan as Lucian knew it, doesn't mean Vlad couldn't change the plan at any moment. I'd be checking brake lines and looking around me worried someone would shoot me at every turn. So is Vlad like a step-mom to Lucian and Ilia? She was the real Vlad's husband but was the real Vlad their father?

I'm glad you gave us that. I'd love to see the foursome back in action again. There has to be more to their connection and why they have it. And if we get back to HP again, hopefully we can see more of Michael and Colton together and see Colt open up even more and see how he is with less anger and stuff in him. That said, I found it wierd that the anger is what made his transition go better. If Michael took that away, would he alawys struggle with his change? I liked Colt and you always felt something missing in him, so i'm glad we found out what it was. Was Ash and his group part of Angus' pack?

I really am glad to finally see this one...it was summed up quicker than I expected. A great ending though. I loved his first 4 shots. I love how the pack works as a really well-tuned machine. The elders and Alphas and the young guys. Gene was a great addition to the story too. I really wish we could see more of this foursome at some point. It is really interesting to see their connection and would be nice to see more of it. I really want to know why Quint and Dyl have the telepathy thing. Has to be bigger than catching Amos and saving Zeek. Too bad they had to kill Aunt Gin's nephew and castrate another, she and Travis might have been cute together lol. The guys messin' with Dylan at the end was funny too. I was hoping that colt would meet up with Michael, but if a year later he's there, that must not be. Or will a short I see listed address that....please!

Interesting but I kinda feel like putting it in the LHC is strange given Roman and Martin's story doesn't come across as paranormal. (You put the wrong name in when you said Laurentius took over the piano from Roman) I really hope you get back to their story. I was excited to find out how their date went and find out if the clicked.

very intense...much different than your other story with the angst. The emotions were really strong and gripped me as I read. Great job.

aww thanks Caz. You make it easy to do by writing a GREAT story.

Very cute. creative use of profanity lol. I enjoyed it, but want to know who was crowned King of the harvest!

Happy birthday! Do something special for yourself today! lots of hugs, c
