Sounds like a very relaxing day. Aod and I are doing well. We went to one of the fancy coffee/tea shops here in Chiang Mai. Here are some of the pictures from the shop. Since I am using GA gallery to highlight things of interest in Thailand, I definitely don't spoil the picture with my face showing. These show about 1/2 of the coffee shop. I only showed one of the outdoor courtyards completely. Open sky outside and aircon comfort inside. Thais love the coffee, tea and desserts. Plus, there are plenty of opportunities for selfies and photos with friends.

Hi Clo! Hope you have had a good day so far.

Definition of distant, uncaring parents? They give the "sex talk" by handing out a bunch of computer printouts then walking off with a disdainful look. I hope that Parker telling Colton about the beautiful wolf encounter will give Colton the courage to finally go talk with his father, then to Parker. Great writing with the tension of the dysfunctional parents blazing through for all to see.

Aloha Albert! I don't always remember to do that myself. Thais would say, "Mai pen rai", no problem.

I am having a lot of the same thoughts as CW Prince and Ms. V had mentioned in their comments. Colton does need to talk with his father, then fess up with the truth to Parker. He needs to settle things down before they blow up in his face. Right now his little head is doing all the thinking for him. Trey needs to get Colton back on track if Trey is to make a good Beta for Colton.

A short but very important chapter. Parker gets to meet Colton's black wolf. By the confidence and affection showed by Parker, I believe he will not be totally freaked out when Colton finally tells Parker the truth. He may be more freaked out by learning that he is Colton's destined mate than the shift from human to wolf. Great chapter! Thanks @Rob Colton

This was a great chapter that was very engaging and flowed nicely. The bday was interesting, but the conversations, confessions and final culmination were revealing of the depth of their bond. Parker may have a hard time accepting the wolf, but he sure does love the man. I wish them both luck.

Sorry I missed this, but I do want you to know that the angry reaction was a response the the plot. Your writing is superb. I also rarely use that reaction, and it is always in response to an evil character or their actions.

I know what you mean my friend. We have had a few years of listening about a lot of crap on top of Covid. Then the horror of the last weeks hoping and praying for the people of Ukraine. Now we have all the s..t of fundamentalists attacking innocent people for just being who they are. Know we are on your side.

Hi Albert! How are you today?

After 18 years of indifferent behaviour to Parker, his father is suddenly concerned??? BS! Who is the golf buddy with the slanders about Colton? Even I can figure that one out. Hint! He's afraid he will lose his power in the pact, he has a bully for a son, and Parker's father does a lot of business with him. I also think the sneaky bully is trying to sabotage Colton and Parker's relationship in order to get retaliation. So, he probably informs his father in order to undermine Colton and his friends. Parker's parents, Seth and friends plus Seth's father are just a pack of cowards. I do hope that Parker's bday party goes well as does Colton's surprise for later. PS Can anyone tell me if Alpha Forrest is Seth's father? Someone in a prior comment implied he was Seth's father. Colton seems to act as if Forrest is OK.

Well maybe a little bit. TJ's arm has made an amazing recovery. I wonder why? 😉 Colton has it bad, very bad. I am surprised he is waiting, although it is only for a few days more. Once again Shell has a lot of questions and answers for Parker. I just don't understand how Parker's parents are so indifferent to him. No criticism, but they feel as unnecessary as they treat him. Interesting dream that seems to bring out the kindness in Parker rather than fear.

I seems that Parker's good fortune with Colton may be shared with Shell and Trey. Jed sure has his eye on a soccer player. Colton is definitely protective of his pup. He even faced down the principal. Not an easy thing to do under normal situations. I was surprised that the principal was another wolf. The pack is very large with as many members as we have seen. Great writing! This is a very compelling story.

Great chapter, but was surprised that Seth is also a wolf. Now I wonder why Seth is so hostile to Parker. It seems to predate Colton's arrival in the pack. Shell's interrigation of Parker was hysterical. I love Shell's comment that the important thing was to decide Monday's clothes!

Shell will be out of her mind with joy or frustration depending on what Parker tells or doesn't tell her. That kiss was excellent! I am happy Colton took Trey's advice. TJ got what he deserves, but Colton may be in trouble for the wrist problem he gave TJ. Nice action and smoldering kiss.

I think we would all like a boyfriend like Colton. Parker will be quite happy in a few month's time. I would like to know why Colton has to wait. Colton seems to have the beginnings of his own pack with Jed as his enforcer. Too bad Parker has twits for parents. At least Parker is proving Kim very wrong. Love Kim.

Garjah has changed a lot. I didn't recognize that until now. The fact he might seem a threat to the Kodoval is obvious, but I think he has some friends there and among the rebels that wiil assist them. Using Ases' mech and getting a crowd of friendly faces waiting for them might be good.

Great start to the story. Your character were established quickly and effectively captured my interest. They are well written for a first chapter, and I want to follow them to see what happens next. Of course you left enough hints for us to imagine what may happen next. I think that I am really going to enjoy this story.

I am sure it would be a great hit with Thais here.

We are experiencing weird weather here, also.

Yes, and it can get up to the low 40's then. It's the hot and humid season. Still a few months off. Now, we should be dry and in the high 30's. Instead were in the wet and low 30's. Just plain weird weather.

Of course you don't. That would spoil your fun!

Hey Albert! Sawasdee Khrup! 🙏 How are things in Lost Wages?

Hi Bucket! I just got new air cons and the outside temperatures here dropped 4 degrees. At least we really don't get winter seasons here. The temps next week will be back to 35-36 degrees.
