Between Tabby and Alvin, Kenny and Steve, and now Garrett and Kyle, poor old Pastor Jensen's going to be busy.

Oliver is honest to a fault, locked into a family where that is seen as a detriment. He's protecting his very fragile brother. And a keen foil for Lydia, who is impressed when people stand up to her.
-
Lydia, needs a date for her brother's wedding. Her target? Orel, the reclusive Merrick brother who catalogues graveyards and barely speaks. To get to him, she blackmails her mechanic cousin Finn into a double date with Orel's brother, the tightly-wound auditor Oliver. But Finn and Orel share a decade-old secret, a trauma orchestrated by the charming, predatory Eldest Merrick brother Tarquin. To stop Tarquin's rise, this unlikely alliance must weaponize their past against him—and in the process, reclaim the love stolen from them in a rotting barn, that drove one to the streets, the other to hide. A story of revenge, rust, and rebuilding on broken ground.

I can hear the Sylerikon weeping over their shattered, anachronism riddled time line now.

Which reminds me, there needs to be a 3-way brawl over who gets Hugo's hat... Thomas isn't letting go of it, and there 2.0 and 1.0 both have a claim.

Thank you, now I know what I keep doing wrong Thanks.

If you scroll up, to where you like/react to the chapter, right beside it is a black and white button that looks like a white medal, push that button and it will show you how to do it.

You're the first person to ever catch that little detail, twenty odd years and you are the first

This site fascinates me some times, the complexity of it must be a nightmare behind the scenes. It's as much a piece of art as the stories in it. thanks @Myr @Cia @wildone and all the admins/mods.

Not allowed to touch publish button, forbidden, disallowed, not even to look at it... not till tomorrow. Nope, not going anywhere near it... resisting fiddling... denying urge to automate the evil process that. Wait, ok forgive me, but If I click publish story... does it automatically publish the first two chapters? I've been running on the assumption that I have to publish those separately, and so it is going live when i am trying to set timers on the wrong thing.... I'm an idiot. I think I know what I have been doing wrong all this time. * Still not touching it till tomorrow * I don't trust my addled techno-incompetence. Don't worry I only discovered it by accident a little while back.

Gotta get my recommendation fix somehow... and there are lots of 'em out there reading, loving the story and pretending I don't see them slinking past the recommendation button without clicking it... I SEE YOU over there!
-
She's Steve's Mom, she learns... and her and West's scene in a future book make up for being mixed up here. Brad, Brad also gets his. Twice, once from Jason who is far braver than we know here, and once from West in a snowy street in Ottawa, where West sends him back to jail after kicking his ass.
-
So tomorrow a new story, and another glimpse back. Please leave me a recommendation, and a review if you liked this story. It helps me tremendously, and a small favour to ask. Just go to the black and white button beside where you like the chapter, click that... go on, you love me, you love Merrickville and want more stories... no clicky, no story It's a hostage now! .

Kyle is ambitious, and highly motivated to try and get Garrett pregnant... which is going to take him a LOT of trying. And (Insert rant about AI editing again, I've had a day of it... now it changed Katz to Henderson for some reason beyond my comprehension) I fixed it back.

Chapter Thirteen: Ghost in the Machine The citrus solvent had stopped smelling clean. It smelled like failure now, like the chemical ghost of things that wouldn’t come out. Finn was on his knees in the middle of the garage bay, scrubbing at a patch of concrete that was already spotless, his knuckles white around the stiff bristles of the brush. He’d been at it for twenty minutes. The circular motion was a mantra, a stupid, physical prayer: erase, erase, erase. The midday sun was a

Jason's dad is a ... nasty piece of work. It is Heavily implied in later books that Andrew and Clovis had to "deal" with him. We don't come out and say it, but our lads dealt with a problem. Jason is a tragedy that should never have happened, but later, he saves West's life. So he finds his bravery, even though it costs him dearly.
-
Their dynamic is fun. Ned keeps nicking his hats.
-
The CIA are DESPERATE to get Yani back, they made a colossal mistake issuing a burn notice on him during RECOURSE. Nothing motivates a person better than revenge on an organization that left you to rot in a foreign prison.
-
Hah I must resist spoliers, but it's worth the read. Graves, Graves is a monumental dick.
-
This is covered in the text, and it... Graves is a REAL threat to West because he knows EXACTLY who West is, what he is doing at night, and who it all ties back to. I fear West has a real nemesis for a change, who not only wants to beat him, but views Peter as the real prize.
-
The DG's heroic destruction of CSIS Headquarters destroyed records of who, exactly, West is.
-
Some men see a beautiful person like Peter and assume it's soft. Peter is anything but soft. He's a razor blade wrapped in spikes, hidden under velour. Squeeze him and find out. LOL Unfortunately two 14 year olds have painted a giant arrow right back to him. And that arrow can be seen from Orbit.
