Laura S. Fox

Oh, there are so many layers here... and Lawrence definitely feels quite motivated to look at Bastien as an homme fatal. There will be so many revelations, but all in due time.

Yes! Bastien may be an expert at holding up masks, but even his slip from time to time! And I knew readers' opinion of him will suffer modifications overtime!

Everything is meant to be put to the test and under suspicion. After all, we are seeing everything from Lawrence's POV... and he's an investigator.

The main event indeed. As always, thank you for the soundtrack! Lawrence truly finds Bastien's secret pleasure points, and he seems to be quite adept at it.

A bit more, if I may be allowed to add...

Warrior King, I really like this! Yes, he is also strong, not just an affable king.

The whole event was meant to put this in perspective... Lawrence will have to, eventually, make up his mind. About Bastien and everything.

I hope you'll find the rest, ahem, just as equally delicious.

He-he, hidden top status... a top dog he might be, but Bastien has his preferences in bed

He is Icarus indeed... and he can't find the slightest reason to be cautious. Go figure.

I am quite confident that the new chapter will satisfy your wishes

Chapter Twenty-Three – I Am Icarus Bastien dropping onto the bed by his side startled him from his nap. It wasn’t like him to fall asleep so quickly in an unfamiliar place, but his confusion lasted briefly. First, his eyes met a naked chest, and Bastien’s beautiful nipples tickled his recent memory just right. Without a second thought, Lawrence leaned forward and caught one with his lips. The laugh that followed, just as the caress through his hair, confirmed that he wouldn’t have much time

Thank you for the cute gif! And for the comment, as well! Skarg really conquered everyone's heart... I shouldn't be surprised

The readers deserve this ending, too! After so many hardships...

We do love our underdogs, don't we? Besides these guys, you will get to see Skarg, too, in the epilogue, so I promise a complete happy end!
