It's a possibility brought up, believe me. To hurt Belle, he had to feel he was going to lose something he valued. He loses his wife, (wife number three) but it's hit home when they tell him to pay, he might lose a dealership or two.

It was unfair, but I was being discharged before Sasha. I was concerned about Sasha coming back to the condo. His room was a floor above ours with stairs and because of the pin in his leg he would be in a wheelchair a while and traversing those stairs would be nearly impossible. Tony and I discussed what we needed to do. When we agreed, we waited until Sasha and David were together with us. “When you come home in another week or so...” Tony began. “You and David will move into our bedroom on

Thanks. It can get better as I use it. I hate potholes. I take you down a road, you're enjoying the scenery and "boom", a pot hole. It can ruin your journey.

Finding someone in A'Dore? No. In Royal Valley? That's the plan. And Ryan had to be gay. A friend wanted a red head with Darrin. So, there he is.
-
Yes. Even though Yannick says he's okay with just being friends, and he might mean it then, his motivations about going were not to protect Erik or Ryan as he swears, but he is the best fighter. But he is the Crowned Prince and will give more merit to the Creid, Blethos and A'Dore Alliance.

Changes for everyone. David and Sasha, the McKenzies and Delveccios.

Belle in trying to minimize damage as much as possible. If he even manages to get off for the crime, which he doesn't, the damage to his reputation is almost enough.

The new relationship that was forming between the Creids and me was still one I was surprised with. What had my mother told Christian about their table manners wasn’t true. Had King Mordor being playing an act? He ate as decently as other men, better than some I’ve witnessed. I also noticed that when we dined in the great hall, there were a lot of men there eating as well. “You do this sort of meal every meal? All of these men eat here?” I asked seeing all the men talking and having a pl

There will a wedding. Mr. Belle is negotiating. Always about money. There will be a price, but it's never enough.

David is a good lawyer in real life, too. And he, not even yet graduated knew how to lie. Medical records aren't released, only to lawyers, which he isn't yet. But Kincaid didn't know that. He knew Belle didn't stand a chance!

It was just a few minutes later when my mother came into the room. I could see she was exhausted, but she looked relieved when she walked in. “Hi, Mom,” I said smiling at her hating that I sounded a little pitiful. She came over and gently hugged me careful not to move me that much. “I can only say, this was the hardest thing I’ve been through.” She admitted allowing a little sniffle, but she smiled at me. I frowned. “I’m sorry.” She shook her head. “You didn’t do this. That man

And Ryan know a lot, but not how or why. He knew about the parts his father told him about blood and how it worked. Now he will see it. And they will have to tell Ryan about the doorway. How else is Ryan going to help with whatever is in Christian's blood if he can't get to Christian. A lot of assumptions about Crieds is going bye-bye, but it will be difficult for some.

The banquet hall was now a symphony of men talking, laughing and kidding each other. These were not just soldiers, they were warriors! Then the feeling I now got from them was extremely pleasant. In their eyes, I’d proven I was to be trusted. They had no problem accepting me as a friend now. At the end of the meal, I rose, but felt the muscles telling me not to move fast. I was getting stiff and sore. I didn’t mean to, but I must have made a sound. King Mordor and Yannick looked at me cautio

I'm getting to all that. Be patient. I wrote what you saw now over night and this morning. You'll find out about Sasha and David. Alik and his mother. About what's happening with Alik's mom. Rome wasn't built in day. Now, I writing about Creid. I alternate which story I write about. North meets South is Sunday night. Let's just say....things will sort of change for a lot of people. Tony and Mitch are going to be together forever. David and Sasha will be together, but things will change a little. Just be patient.

Gary only was going to stay that one night, but we insisted he stay the weekend. I was just happy things seemed to mend between Gary and me. He was still dealing with some guilt he’d carried for decades, but he watched Tony and me together and seemed to relax a bit. He also watched David and Sasha together and that seemed to ease his mind even more that there was real love at work between them. The season between Thanksgiving and Christmas was always chaotic. Holiday parties and celebrations

No, Erik learns that a lot of Creid behavior is on purpose, to keep people at a distance. While they are just men, their technology is not as advanced and this isolation will be the reason. The knowledge they have, they really don't understand. But with help from one Creid they get to understand why. The Creid are most bark, they will bite sometimes, but more bark. Seth will actually be a little jealous of one Creid.

It was a few hours before someone came to the room telling us King Mordor would see us. Taking us through the rest of the castle I saw more that was…well…there were antlers on the walls of one room I assumed was a dining hall. It was big. Again, no rugs, but there were tables with benches and a huge fireplace. Before the fireplace was a table and there were chairs there. You could burn a whole tree in the fireplace! We were led to a large…hall? Men in black leather armor stood in intervals about

On that...we share a lot. The older generation doesn't hug. My cousins and I do. My friends and my in-laws hug. Be honest, there's nothing in the world that feels as good as a warm hug from someone that really likes you. Just as friend! It feels good!

Tony wasn’t jealous…not exactly. He wasn’t happy about Ted being there. He said very little on the way to the restaurant, which never happened. “Say it.” I said quietly. Tony suddenly looked over as if I’d caught him in a thought and now was aware his mind had wandered off. “What?” I chuckled as I shook my head. “Your mind has been elsewhere since you saw Ted.” Tony bowed a nod. “Sorry.” “Tony.” I said as he kept his eyes on the road. “Tell me what you’re feeling.”

The end of the week came and it was decided that Darrin, Quaid and I were going to the capital of the Creids. I put my clothes in a pack, they were wrapped around a Seer that I packed to show this Ryan what I found and ask for help. “It’ll be colder up there.” Seth said as he brought me a sweater, but he was speaking very softly and sad. I took the sweater and turned him to me. “I don’t want to leave you, not like this.” I moved so he had to look at me. “I love y

Ah, but King Mordor only heard a voice, he never saw Erik. Like Demetrius said, the effects only last a little while. It's assured Christian won't get sick for a while, but he will die eventually. And with the passing of this new immunity, his wife and children, Erik, Seth and all the citizens will be protected a little better, a little longer.

Seth was back in the vineyard and I was dividing my time between paperwork and our growing boys. I found I liked that the winery was doing great under the control of Helen. Not having to worry about the inventory now made my time free more. So, I began teaching more. Dennis was catching on quickly and Toby was a sponge soaking everything in. Toby already knew how to spell most simple things. And Dennis was always watching as I showed Toby and he was learning, too. Christian and

It's a slow going process.

My real Tony can be very possessive. So, I'm still relaying the truth when I said he growled. He really did.
-
“That went well.” I grinned to David as the commotion started evening out. Uncle Thomas was nursing his wound as Uncles JC and Earl attended their brother. David chuckled. “Only a little bloodshed.” He grinned at Sasha and kissed him. “I was afraid it could be yours or mine. I’m glad it wasn’t.” Then he smiled at me. “And your Dad!! He was so….” “Wasn’t he?” I nodded laughing. “I couldn’t believe it!” Tony growled. “And I missed it.” He complained. I patted Tony’s arm. “And I’m s
