Lyn truly took his mother's choice of not letting the father know to heart... And he also formed his opinion of the man years before. That said, when he meets the man in question, his father behaves like the dangerous man Lyn imagined him to be. This justifies and strengthen his opinion. You're right that the man challenges Lyn to see if there's a lie lined up and if it works well enough. Mom didn't want Dad in their lives. For all her flaws, she knew that revealing Lyn's existence might be like playing Russian roulette. She was well aware of putting herself - and her son - in danger since she correctly thought her action would be interpreted as blackmail. Lyn didn't have to live with that kind of burden, at least. And that is all I'll be commenting. (But keep the speculations going - you know you'll always see in the end if you were right or not.)

Yeah, unfortunately for me, Alexander did use those words... ugh... silly me...

Very interesting And this is the point where I shut up - take it as you will

Guys... I didn't mean that! Oh, lol. I seriously didn't want Alexander to mirror Lyn's dad's words! It just happened... As for Arya, she's still alive, but she won't appear again - she must have slipped my mind at one point, so sorry...

In a nutshell At least he doesn't have a lot to worry on this front...

I like to think that Lyn is Zidane in this lil' scenario! (without sharing any of that personality!) Oh, what a time to see this moment live, lol!

Chapter Forty-Nine – The Right Thing “Shouldn’t we address the elephant in the room?” Lyn asked, resting his head on Alexander’s belly while playing lazily with his current lover’s spent cock. “That’s only the elephant’s trunk.” Alexander laughed, the rumble in his chest reaching Lyn like a tickle. “Shut up, you arrogant ass,” Lyn said but moved his lips closer to tease the crown gently with a kiss. “You’re not that big.” “All right, I agree.” Alexander caressed Lyn’s head s

Theo needs all the lessons he can get! It's not that he doesn't like kissing - it's more like he's afraid of what he might do if he enjoys it too much...

We'll see what happens... But all of them have new things to learn and discover

Jack is the wild card, pun intended... but you need a bit of chaos in order or else things get boring fast.

It might be all it takes... or not

That is a very good question

Chapter Fourteen – Team Building Jack clutched the bag in his arms with all his might while he watched the landscape rushing past below them while Theo flew over the pine forest in his jet. The moon still shone so brightly that the shapes of the crowns of the trees were visible. Things were getting real, and after the excitement of the day, Jack would’ve expected himself to be pretty tired. Only his eyes were wide open, and his mind was going around and around. His fingers itched to pl

They boldly go where they haven't gone before But it's so good what you say - Lyn is finally living in the present, not in his tortured imagination, when he's having sex with Alexander. It was as short as an inhale-exhale, lol! Now, seriously, Lyn needs to prove himself as a top... I like mirroring moments, yes, and I believe it can be one to the scene in the first chapter when El tells Lyn about becoming someone's boyfriend.

Yes, this is where the growth happens for Lyn! And despite the ups and downs, he will be a changed man in the end - or one who has evolved at least. According to wiser people than me, change only happens when it becomes inevitable... so let's see

Lyn didn't mean it! He just couldn't control himself, lol.

I knew I could count on you to 'dissect' this the proper way, Maestro... Lyn is doing a lot of developing as someone with a lot of internal struggles. And Alexander is there to confirm and support him every step of the way. At the same time, he's keeping his eyes on the prize. He's not indulging Lyn more than what's necessary for them to take the next step. At the same time, he's everything you said. And oh, my heart. No, it's not perfect; yes, it's messy. But what you said about them in those moments, Lyn losing it, Alexander showing support no matter what, these are the thoughts I wanted to convey to readers. Thanks a lot for your in-depth analysis, like usual!

Hmm, hmm, indeed... repercussions...

Of course And Alexander just wanted to get to the good part fast, lol - aka asking Lyn to be boyfriends.

He said nothing incorrect... done and done

Awesome line, lol! Yeah, straightness...

There was a lot of development on all fronts!

Chapter Forty-Eight – [Memory, Senior Year, November] – Your Benefactor Wishes to Remain Anonymous I think it’s time for you to meet your father. Lyn stared at Arya’s message, his heart slowly turning to lead. She didn’t know about the check, and she had no idea Lyn knew who his father was, or at least had a good guess. The situation wasn’t good regarding his inheritance, if he could call it that, and money was still something he didn’t have. Brad had suggested once that Lyn ask Alexan

Ha-ha, sweet but makes your teeth hurt... That's why Brad might not be so good for Lyn. But there is more to that, I promise.

I expected speculations... And Alexander will tell his truth in his own time. It will be part of a much bigger conversation, actually, but I'm sure you guys will be able to tell its importance when that happens. But it does have a strong effect on Lyn, this absence. He needs to process it and at least find an explanation for himself that he can handle. And of course, the secret of his mom's profession dangles above his head even after her passing...
