I'm glad you enjoyed it! Hope the ending wrapped it up for the most part for everyone. Thank you so much for all of your reviews throughout the story; they really to see how others view the story.

Sounds like an interesting story. The half/incomplete sentences give it a great fast-paced, almost breathless feel, and you can really sense Frank's emotions. Can't wait to read more.

Thanks so much! Wow, five times! So glad you like it so much! Actually, I have sent it to Cia, only because she had been reading it on AFF when I had it posted, but hadn't finished it before I took it down for a while, so she had asked about how it ended and I sent it to her. I never asked if it would be okay to post here, I just assumed it wouldn't. I've sent it to you, so you can let me know what you think.

I think Kayden is small because I love the idea of a smaller, vulnerable person being protected by a bigger man... just my own personal feeling. And I think as an abused slave, his growth would have been stunted by malnutrition and abuse. He's going to gain a little weight and height, now that he's with Damien Glad you enjoyed it. I have a couple short ficlets on the way... think I'll post one tomorrow for a Thanksgiving treat...

Those are crazy! Ridiculous that people behave that way to save a few dollars. I'd rather sit at home and shop online. I hate crowds as it is so, I have no desire to attempt shopping on Black Friday.

Yeah, I carried books too, and I can't complain that she's reading, right? Although it is bad when I have to tell her to stop reading long enough to get other things done (because, really, I certainly don't want to discourage her from reading!). And, no, currently the third story is not posted anywhere else at the moment. But as I told valkyrie, I have no problem emailing it to whomever wants to read it, just PM me if you want to check it out--but it is, um, more graphic and intense than All In (another abuse story).

Hehe, I think we were reviewing each other's stories at the same time! Thank you very much for your reviews. I can see where more could be added (and maybe in some sort of oneshots I might come back to them, just for fun). Glad you enjoyed it.

Aww, so sad that Ryle feels that way. I love the hiding under the bed part (reminds me of a certain neko, but Ryle has a much feistier attitude!). Love how Gabriel stands up to his father and asserts his stance about Ryle, makes me love him more. (oh, and if you need an editor, I'd love to help out, just PM me what you want edited) I'll be watching for more!

Hope you enjoyed the rest of the story (just checked on reviews over here in the Neko and realized I hadn't replied yet to some, sorry!)Garin is one of my favorite side characters. Thinking of using him in some short oneshot/ficlets using the characters from the Neko. I've already written a couple of shorts using some prompts from the forums here to get me back into the Neko universe so I can maybe start the sequel soon. BTW, I am so looking forward to seeing what happens in the Starcutter story of yours!

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. I have some short little oneshot stories coming with Kayden and the gang...

Thank you very much! So glad you enjoyed it! I'll be working on the sequel soon, but I'm using some of the writing prompts from the forums to get me going again, so look for some short ficlets with Kayden, Damien, and the rest of the gang in the meantime!

Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

Oh, good. I was a little worried about how the change in POV would be taken. Thank you so much for all of your insightful reviews!

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

I know, many people wanted Devyn to get his voice back, but that would probably be a little too much. I'm so glad you thought the change in POV worked; I was a little worried about that. Thank you very much for all your reviews throughout the story. So glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you so much for all your reviews!

So glad you enjoyed it! I've very much enjoyed reading all of your reviews throughout the story! Thanks for taking the time to review.

Other than that (insignificant) little detail, the story was absolutely flawless It's definitely one of my all time favorites, and I'm looking forward to coming back and rereading every once in a while . This isn't a story I'll ever forget, but it's good enough to reread anyway . I was meaning to write a longer review, but after reading that I've got too many things crashing through my mind to write coherently . Anyway, thanks so much for writing such a masterpiece! Reading this has been an amazing experience, and I'm looking forward to the Brad insert . Oh, I kinda wish Kieran had woken up so he could go to jail too Bastard knew about what was happening to Devyn and did nothing, letting him go outside doesn't make up for that at all. Congrats on an amazing story! Definitely one of the best Oops! Thanks for pointing that out! And thank you for reviewing with such detail all the time; they definitely help me improve the story. So glad you enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed writing it. I'm so glad you liked it. And I do find third person limited easier to write because I tend to want readers to know what more than one character is thinking.

This is a sugar glider--we have three: Andromeda, Apple and Lucy. Apple and Lucy were rescues that we got from someone who was getting rid of them and they had not been socialized very well.

As a feline, his scent abilities would be stronger than a normal human, so it's mostly there because he's a neko, just like Ellis (also a neko) was able to smell the poison in Damien's food when he was cleaning up the mess. I love cats and really liked to exude Kayden's feline qualities. I'm so glad you enjoyed the story. I have written a couple of short ficlets with the Neko characters using a couple of the writing prompts here, so I'll post them soon. (I was in the middle of posting All In, and since I can only post once a day, I didn't want to hold up the posting of All In to post those two (think the All In followers might have revolted if they didn't get their daily All In fix!) I thought I'd use some writing prompts to get me back into the Neko world and back into those character mindsets as they are very different from the All In characters.

The third one I haven't posted here because I think it's too graphic for it's abuse of the teen, so I probably wouldn't post it. If someone really wanted to read it, I wouldn't have a problem emailing it to you if you wanted to PM me an email address to send it to. I think it's too big to send through the PM messaging system here. Avery is the main character there who is abused by his father.

Sugar gliders are like tiny flying squirrels. They are nocturnal so they like to be up with me at night. They are also marsupials so they love pouches, so I just hang their pouch on my neck and they come and go as they want. They are very friendly and bond to each other and humans really well so they don't run off like a hamster or something. I've been thinking about mermen, but I haven't really figured out a plot yet (since I'm thinking about the Neko sequel right now) but odds are someone's going to get captured or hurt! The sequel to the Neko does have Kayden and Damien as the main characters, but they will mostly not be at the estate--they will be traveling to the mines. Ellis, Geoff, Oliver and Nash (the other guard) will probably be the other characters that figure prominently.

Chapter 27--Epilogue So... there's my story of how I ended up going All In with a kid who I thought would drive me nuts. Well, he actually does drive me nuts, but in a good way, a normal teen way. He is finally opening up, feeling secure with his new freedoms. The therapist is helping with that a lot. So is Michael. Especially Michael. After staying at my father's home for a few months, we moved into a house across town that had enough acreage to build a barn for Serenity so that Devyn

thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Hope you like the epilogue--just to wrap it all up!
