Dexter's vibe is creepy and predatory tbh. Not too happy with how callously Jeremy got rid of Carter either... Hmm

I've always loved Will for the way he has his people's back & for his ability to place boundaries and demand they be respected. JJ was amazingly self-centred and vile towards him & Brad. Besides, at what age exactly are we expecting the family to stop coddling JJ? No one has really done him a favour by putting up with his bullshit. It's why it's gone on for so long. If I were that loyal to someone only to have them spit in my face like that - they're dead to me. Will was nice to direct any energy at JJ at all, even if it was a punch, because the only energy I have is the bare minimum of politeness at family functions. I'm glad he had people standing up for him because he's right. Just because someone is family doesn't mean that you have to put up with untenable abuse forever. As for Jack and his nasty little announcement and the timing - is it crack? Marie summed it up succinctly. May he get what he deserves.

Wait... jj is eighteen??? Sorry, but that's all I could focus on after reading the story & then the comments. Brain came to a halt. Can anyone confirm so I don't have to re-read a couple books 😅

This story is really unlocking a lot of old memories. I think most of our families in southern Africa must have been watching dynasty 🫠, lol. And the whole struggle with the Catholic/Calvinist issue, going to Catechism at church, because thank heavens we weren't fed that bs at school. Big box to unpack, as a person raised but Catholic, who is currently agnostic 🫣. The rage that my female parental unit unleashed when I read the Holy Books of other religions as a teen, lol. Anyhoo, I hope this article is of some help to our young protagonist after the clusterfuck of the last chapter (which of course is always magnified in one's teens). If I were to ever name a son Steven, it'd certainly be after Mr Biko. Alas, the oven is closed for business permanently. Very curious as to where you'll take us next, & what box of memories shall be opened next 😅

I think one thing Europeans don't really understand, is that white Africans are just that. Africans. All my African white and Indian friends immediately went back home after uni in the North. They found everything there unbearable and most were seriously depressed until they got back. If you're born and raised there, it's difficult to tolerate life in the global North.

Love this for them ❤️ So very sweet how they came clean

If this story goes anything like real life did for me, Mr Jason fucktard is gonna get expelled. Expulsion from schools like this is ruinous & the shit head deserves it. I like how the boys' friendship is evolving tho ❤️

I grew up Botswana and went to a Private Cambridge School. This is all so familiar, lol. Except the bullying part. At least for the five years I was there 😅. Bullied the bullies and convinced them it was not worth it in form 1. Nothing like a skinny girl chasing the big dudes off with a big mouth. Can't wait to read on!

I'm getting to like Will and Travis' relationship more and more as we move along through this story. I was initially a bit worried about Travis being "younger" in many ways. That letter was impeccable. Right dose of honesty and tied together the answers to many questions very neatly. My ever curious mind appreciated it 😅. Also hoping that Travis and Big can retain some sort of relationship - better yet, if it is in more equal footing. Perhaps Travis' trusts may just do that. No comments on Miranda and her daughter, lol 🫠

I'm so glad I decided to re-read the story! If I hadn't come across the link to this story in the comment section of the previous one, I probably never would've known that you wrote a prequel. It's been a great read & I appreciate the back story to Skold & how he came to be. Thank you for sharing!

The bait has been dangled & I'm biting. Very curious about where this will lead 🙂 Certain it'll be fun though!

Another amazing chapter as aways! Thank you Mark ❤️. It's so wierd to me that men, having seen what it does to other relationships, still decide to open up partnerships believing that their other half will remain shackled to them & play the dutiful husband/ wife. As a woman, you tell me you're dipping it elsewhere, I'm done. Even if I don't immediately file for divorce. Like Claire, I'm no longer in the same relationship with you because that's what's been communicated to me. I wouldn't even cook for a man, lol, nevertheless be emotionally there for him. I 100% understand Claire. & I wouldn't be surprised if a bit of gaslighting was added to the mix to make her feel guilty for finding another lover too. I think she may simply be annoyed because she knows that everyone knows now & on a certain level such a betrayal cuts deep. She's never been one to air her personal business like the rest. It's enough to irk the most stoic person 🤷🏽‍♀️. Casey's thoughts on Travis gel. He's so terrorised by his family he's bound to be skittish around such massive changes in his emotional life 🤔. Brad & Will's relationship arc 💛

Reading about Rusty's deep desire to not be perceived felt like a personal attack 😂😂😂. Loved the chapter as always. Conner, as always, serves slime & venom. Eew. Thankfully we had the Rusty Mattie interlude to cleanse our minds after 🤟🏽

Wow. A very intriguing start to a story if there ever was one. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us! Both Thomas & Henry are just mysterious enough to have hooked me! I'll be back for sure 😊

I did not see that burning plane comming. Yikes. But I'm also not particularly inclined to beleive that Buck Sr would be that dumb... There are easier ways to dispose of unwanted progeny. Cannot wait to see what bombs of his own Will will set off. Let us pray for Brad's blood pressure lols
