Thank you, Drew. I'm glad the memory worked for you. Honestly, not many men would take the time to spend with a child that wasn't theirs so I wanted to show why Merrick intrigued him. The scene beneath the trees... I'm glad that worked for you too Thank you for your review and your support. I do appreciate it

Thank you, Victor I'm really happy you enjoyed the chapter. Jenson is starting to crack and Merrick is pretty persistent. lol Thank you again for the great review and your support. I appreciate it

Chapter 8 Merrick swam behind Jenson with the buzz of arousal still in his system. The tight suit the vampire wore hid nothing, and he enjoyed watching the man’s muscles bunch and flex as his powerful legs propelled him through the water. The underwater exercise was both exhilarating and arousing, but he was frustrated when Jenson pulled away from him… again. Even now, the vampire was trying to put distance between them as he lengthened his stroke and moved to the far right of the group.

Wow, the old guy has the creepy factor down. I wonder what he's doing with the blood?

I loved these, Tim. You conveyed such need and longing in a few lines. I hope that Mike gets a chance to read these so he can know how much his poet missed him

I think it's only going to be a matter of time before Noel completely loses it on someone who whispers one of the other souls' names around him when he does something. lol Seriously, it has to be wearing on him, feeling like people are looking through him trying to see someone else inside of him. I like his comment about how the King needs to get to know the "glue". Another great chapter, Adi!

This was a wonderfully unique perspective of this scene. The narrator wants to be the girl... he wants to be the won being kissed and desired. Beautifully done, Tim

I've had people I've had to walk away from because the imbalance became unbearable, or they did things that I couldn't forgive. I put a lot into friendships, so betrayal can really be devastating sometimes. Your poem really expressed that well. Some people should come with warning labels...

Happy Birthday Lacey!

I'm glad you liked the scene with Jenson and Kel. I re-wrote it several times before I felt like it was right. I am sorry about your... umm empathy? for Jenson Thank you again for all of your reviews. You really made my day

Think of it this way, at least you were able read it through in one go, so you don't have to wait to see what happens next. Thank you for your review (and causing giggling that had my husband questioning what the heck was so funny )

I thought you liked the slow build. lol I thought the pictures added another dimension to the story I just wanted people to see who i pictured in these scenes. Thank you for another great review, and for making me laugh this morning.

Thank you, Tim Things are warming up between these two. We'll see where it eventually takes them Thank you for your review and your support. I appreciate it

It's great to have you back, Tim I'm really happy you find the story engaging. Thank you for the review and your support. I appreciate it

This was a sad one. I have a hard time thinking of Matt helping Levi find his "replacement". But really, if Levi isn't willing to turn Matt, what choice is there? What a depressing thought.. knowing you are destined to lose every lover you ever have.

Well they might not be requited as quickly as some people might want. lol I really enjoy writing about their friendship and I'm pleased you are enjoying reading about them. Thank you for your review and your support. I really appreciate it.

No, no, no, no, no.... that's not real is it?

Thank you for such a great review, Gary As I mentioned to Eagle and Drew, we will learn more about Kel in the chapters to come. I can't really say much more without spoiling some things to come. I love that Merrick holds so much sway over Jenson too. I also like that he KNOWS the influence he has. Thank you for the great review and all of your unwavering support. I truly appreciate it

Thank you Eagle I'm really happy you are enjoying the tension between J and Merrick. The scene with Kel was sad. You will learn more about who he is in the coming chapters. thank you for your review and your support. I appreciate it.

lol patience if a virtue In the world I've created, vampires and humans have colonized a few uninhabited planets, and provide compensation to any government who might claim control of the planet. Occasionally they may even find an uninhabited planet that no one has claimed. Not really a catch, just good scouting

lol I felt kind of bad for him too... that had to be tough walking around like that for any length of time Thank you for your review and your support, Tim. I appreciate it

Thank you, Drew. I'm really happy you are enjoying the story so far. You'll learn more about Kel soon, I promise Thank you for your review and your support (Bucket too, since I hit reply to soon on his )

I think it will be pretty explosive too There is a deep sadness in Jenson. I think it will start to become more clear in the coming chapters.

Has anyone used Microsft Edge yet? If so, do you have problems with it? i just got a new laptop pre-loaded with Windows 10 and I happily used Edge, and liked it for the most part. I did find that on GA there were times my touchpad didn't seem to want to work in the dialogue box, or if I hit "quote" nothing would happen. At other times I would hit "post" and my post would just disappear. At first I thought this might be a glitch with my new computer and I'd be returning it, even though the touch pad worked fine in other applications. Today I tried to post a chapter of my story and it disappeared. All of the information I entered was gone. I tried several times with the same result. I finally got fed up and downloaded Chrome and the chapter uploaded just fine. Has anyone else had similar issues?

Chapter 7 Jenson knew he was in trouble the second Merrick’s arm’s wrapped around him in the common room of the Council Compound. It was like his body and his mind had disconnected. He knew he couldn’t have this man, for so many reasons, but that didn’t stop his treacherous body from desiring him. On the walk to the Weir’s new home, Jenson was sure he could feel Merrick’s gaze on him, but he did his best to ignore it, and concentrate on his conversation with Connor. When he heard the y
