No worries, There will be a totally different matter on the table (and let's just say this is not a spoiler)

Chapter Nine Two blowjobs in one single fucking morning! Jake felt like floating as he was now all dressed up and ready to accompany Klaus to one of the construction sites to which the guy had promised to take him. And what was pretty amazing, and a bit unnerving at the same time, was how casual Klaus’s featherlike touch on his should was. The man was just guiding him around, and it felt so familiar that Jake was starting to wonder about moronic things like whether he had met Klaus Metzger

Ah, no, it's not that, although you're not far from the truth, in a way. I read Lord of the Flies (haven't seen any of the movies). It was, however, The Coral Island, which, if I understood correctly, served as the inspiration for Golding's novel. A bit of an upside down inspiration, because the boys in The Coral Island do not go through the same moral deprecation as the protagonists in Lord of the Flies, and, by the comments I read, Golding wanted to prove the exact opposite and reveal the darkness of the human nature, and not sustain the politeness and good manners instilled by the civilization that Ballantyne's story was built upon.

Well, it definitely did. Someone told me that the story I am currently publishing here on GA is just like Beauty and the Beast, and when I looked, I was like damn, it really does. Also, it did happen to me, while writing a story (that is far from being over, and I'm not sure it will be made public anytime soon) about a group of young men on a deserted island, to read an 18th (or was it 19th?) century novel about a similar situation. And, while the situation of having a group of young men on an island is too vague and it can be repeated without being considered plagiarism, I did read a certain scene in the 18th century book, that rang exactly like a scene I wrote. It was one of the characters saying that he was knowledgeable of certain things on the island because he read a lot and the others' reaction to that was exactly like how I wrote the scene in my little literary endeavor, too. I have to say that I am quite certain I had not read that book before, and it was pretty weird to find the same thing I thought that could not have existed before I wrote it. Yeap, weird, weird, weird. I just don't have an explanation for this kind of things.

Thanks a lot! I hope you will continue to enjoy it

He, he, Jake needs to develop his sixth sense, aka the gay-dar along with other measuring tools, now that he has the door to the closet cracked open a bit. Your thoughts on Klaus? Spot on

Hey, Lisa! Thanks a lot for the comment. Yes, Klaus and Hans do share important history, as it will be revealed at some point. As for Jake, maybe that is what Klaus needs :))

Thanks a lot for your lovely comment! And yes, that is the sort of dynamic I am aiming for.

You definitely have a point. But I hope that the continuation of the story will convince you otherwise.

That should be an official rating system for all characters

You will totally love how Jake will evolve, I bet But he will be the one with the cards on the table.

Indulging a too doting mother, then? That's fine, you can call him a bully He actually is, my naughty son.

Trauma is not something new in Jake's life, as it will be revealed, at some point. Ah, damn, these are the kind of comments that make me want to say something that would certainly be spoilers. As for the comments, yay, keep them coming. And I hope that the image of Jake as an innocent victim will be counter-attacked by what will happen in the future.

And, somehow, that last sentence sounded really, really hot :)) (And something Jake might say, he, he) If you will continue to read the story, I think you will see some interesting development of both the characters and the relationship between them. I am not going to say anything more, not to spoil it, and I really wish you will be there, when the respective changes will take place. Thanks a lot again for all these insightful comments.

Hey, thank you. You're really sweet (no pun intended, I just now noticed your nickname, :))). I'm not taking it personal; don't worry. Although I must say that it feels a bit strange to admit that the way you see Klaus is correct. And, as his mother/creator (he, he), that's a bit tough. Nonetheless, don't hesitate to post your comments. It really makes my day to observe how people see my story, how they react to it, and how they envision the characters. It is the kind of insight any author craves, I think. So thanks a lot, and lots of hugs. Laura.

Thanks a lot for the comment! You are so spot on regarding Hans. I do not just throw him in as a span in the works, and he will have a role to play, even if it will only be episodic, so to speak. And I quite like your characterization of Klaus. He is far from being perfect, and that, even if he might have something to object, makes him just a human being, like the rest.

And that's how you know, as the author, that you have become predictable, he, he. You are completely right, my friend.

Thanks for reading and commenting! Klaus does thinks that, indeed. For now.

Hey, Wesley, thanks so much for being such a consistent commenter! As for how hot things are going to get, I feel like I must warn you that this is just the beginning.

Chapter Eight Jake flipped nervously through the magazine left on the nightstand. It was all in German, and he could not understand squat. He sighed and buried his head in the crook of his elbows. Then he stretched, enjoying the fluffiness of the sheets. “Nice view,” he heard Klaus calling from behind and straightened up immediately. “Who’s childish now?” he went for a frontal attack. “The door is locked.” “Of course it is. You have the bad habit to stray,” Klaus smiled.

And that, my friend, it's a pretty cool premonition

KYAAA! I love this comment so so so much! Jake is such a tiny little rabbit, and Klaus is like the big bad wolf! :)) But a sexy one, that's for sure! Well, it may seem like Jake doesn't stand a chance right now, but we'll see

Thank a lot, Lisa! Yes, I wanted to pit the guys a little against one another, because what is life without a little conflict? And Klaus does have an understanding of Jake's situation, seeing that he is more involved. As for what Hans is going to do ... You will just have to read further to see what's happening next. But I liked your little clever idea :))

He, he, Wesley, you're so naughty! I sign you up for Klaus's team, then. And I thought everyone loved Jake more.

He should have felt like he didn’t belong, but, in truth, Jake was a bit proud, if only inwardly, of how good he looked. The casual clothes he was wearing were not a suit, but they weren’t his usual jeans and t-shirt either. Klaus had great taste in clothing and Jake was not regretting a bit, seeing the vaguely surprised look in Hans’s eyes, when he made his entrance. Maybe he was not just a mutt, after all. Plus, the visit to the doctor, earlier that day, had not been so bad. It looked like he
