Seraph28

My .oh.my..I like me a hero who is both compassionate and ruthless like Andrew Carter..eh

Don't have much to say this time around ...other than saying Jamie is being an asshole ...at least for the last two chapters or so...Granted Hearst omitted telling him about himself but he himself told Hearst to tell him when he was ready..Hearst even warned him against joining the show but what did he do?..He thought his street bravado and charm would pull him through like it had done many times before...and when it blew in his face ..he is being sort of a douchebag about it and projecting his self inflicted failure onto Hearst!.. @Laura S. Fox... am I allowed to transmigrate and give him(Jamie) a piece of my sassy mind .He is being a mighty heel to Hearst....let me go take a cold pitcher of water lest I self combust in anger 😂😂 Thank you!

It's going to be.complicated ..that is one thing for sure

Am glad you are sharing this really...am inclined to believe that you have achieved healing from that.. Bruno is like Sauron from the Lord of the Rings books....he is on the periphery of the main action and yet his malevolence is felt by everyone...That scene between Daniel and Lucian drives this point home like nothing else....they are brothers and you would expect them to try to connect in his absence but what do we have instead....Lucian being prickly ..Daniel being meek...It was so sad!

That's why am sort of giving him a leeway....these are 14 yo after all....at that age there is an antagonist relationship between logic and hormones/emotions..

You know how @vanalas revels in creating such despicable characters....sometimes I think it is a fetish of Vanalas😂😂😂

Eh...you are even more brutal than me when it comes to that particular git😀😀

Eh ..you want us to riot?😂😂..am sure we will savour it more when the romance ball starts rolling ..

Eh...that was brutal... You remember the first chapter ...he was looking forward to making friends..he has bullied in his former school.

Bruno really messed up these lads..the lack of self worth and agency that Daniel has. Lucian has so much self hate that he passes off as confidence... Reading this chapter left me feeling bleak. Like have you ever read a story and there was that one character that rubbed you all sorts of wrong and you wished to do some sort of cleansing after reading ..well for me it's Bruno. I find myself wishing for him to have his just deserts at the end ...and the most fitting end for such a person is to end up alone and utterly stripped of the power he used to control others...see how he has made me so angsty yet he is just a story character 😂😂 I cannot even begin to imagine your headspace when you are writing the chapters both before and after..eh. Thank you for the update!

I understand the autism spectrum..so Asperger's is not new to me ...Plus the medication he is taking ...seems like it alleviates his anxiety......I agree pairing him with Nick is good....they are both sort of broken...notice how Nick has low self esteem...as though he is adrift...so he is eager to please and belong...they will be good for each other indeed

Thank you...your explanation was technical...like you know psychology. Mine was just based on observation of the people have seen here who have ADHD

Oh no...revealing hints about a potential Zdain-Josel romantic relationship at this point feels a bit premature...I mean I don't think those lads are even have the right head space at the moment...😂😂... You know @Lupus...sometimes I imagine getting into the story to smack some gumption into Zdain...so that he can just come out already that way his sexual orientation is not used against him.. You have no idea how would love to go mano-o-mano with Renn😂😂 P.s....if you don't mind me asking do you plan to make this a long story series( I mean more than 5 books) Thank you!

Here too...and my Dad favoured his leather belt.. My mum on the other hand would, depending on the degree of anger, alternate between slaps and her flip flops..

Here in Uganda if you dared to speak to your parent like that on the phone,you would be in a whole lot of trouble!. First you would be lucky not to get expelled for using obscene language(It's a serious offense around here in schools)..don't even get me started on the punishments that you would get. Filial piety is a very big deal around here . On the parental side, depending on how conservative your family is ,you would be disowned but mostly you would be in a whole world of pain(am talking serious spanking with the cane).. Jack's mental health is somewhat vague since we only get to an insight of it from Nick's perspective but I am inclined to believe he has some sort of mania and ADHD... and from his comment about fear of unrequited love , lack of emotional connection with the parental units/family.

Each time we get a perspective from one of the villains...my frustration boils over😂😂...I know it is a story but can't help myself getting frustrated with the Zdain-Josel dynamics...I know it's a slow burn ,that our heroes are supposed to encounter so much but God...it's.. a lot. It's like the villains have an upper hand at each point.. Then there is that frustrating plotline of Zdain 's feelings for Josel and his unrelenting fear to hide it which is giving the villains(Renn, the small woman) added advantage over the heroes...and it just makes for a bleak reading....Next Thursday can't come soon enough for me😂 Thank you !...

You got your work cut out mate😂

Oh you poor lad!..what have you done?..Nothing good comes from withholding information or poor communication like Nick is doing here ...

I agree with you....this is going to get messy pretty fast!..But these are 14 year old teenagers ...at that age ,one goes with the flow/vibe without considering the consequences.

I cannot muster even a sliver of pity for the witches...self preservation can only go far.. To borrow from the Cell block tango lyric of the musical Chicago..🎼'They had it coming. They had it coming .they only have themselves to blame'🎵🎵... The coven village shows is a lesson in how appearances can be deceiving!..and Morwenna does deserve a burning... I could give anything to have the power to enter the story to witness the comeuppance of the vampires...they really really need to be brought down a few pegs...okay lots of pegs 😂😂 Thank you!

Not just saving a baby....it's also having to deal with a no good emotionally abusive excuse of a spouse(Jace)

I figured as much@drpaladin when I did not see a comment from you!...and you are among the most critical readers here.😉

That would be petty of me..and selfish on my part to want you to accommodate my sensibilities at the expense of the story ..I notice how you are choosing to forget the part that the foursome will include two brothers ..which technically means blood magic of a sort will be involved😜😂😜... As if anyone will ever hold you back....am inclined to believe you are head strong in person anyway...how else would you come up with characters such as Keiran and Ash ..usually an author's work is a minor reflection of the author..or say they say😂😂. P.s...If one of our in-house masters(@Cane23)..is on board..who am I to get in the way of your sex muddled imagination😂😂😂

It's your story and vision @mastershakeme and only you can decide the storyline.. Sure they will be some of us who will not be on board.I for one feel like it would be contradictory since you went through the trouble of having Desmond explain the dangers of blood magic...and this coupling in some way is sort of blood magic.I guess maybe it's because the magic system in this story is a little vague..That is just me anyway . That being said ,just because I am not on board doesn't mean am going to stop being your crazy ardent reader of your work though😂😜...Have after all read all the stories you have here. May your imagination and motivation never waver!

Unpopular opinion from one your most ardent fans here...please please don't let the foursome storyline come into fruition.. I know it's just a fantastical story but can it just be a conventional coupling(two couples who generally love each other as family minus engaging in coitus with each other)...pretty please?😂😂.. Thank you for the update....am glad your motivation is top notch..blessings!
