Jackson is a good person who is giving Luke all the space he needs. Luke cannot commit fully to him and waffles. They may have the week to find their mutual path, unless Luke flees.

Adga and crew fought theives and shady characters now inside the city. She showed how powerful she was and why it is not wise to get her mad. Lord Kandahar saddled her with two more nobles on their rites passage. It is unknown if they will survive. They are clueless. Her patrol drives down secret passages to capture criminals in their underground den. It is dangerous. The red tendrils are approaching fast. They could be traped in an areas they did not anticpate. Thank you for the descriptions of the fighting which are colorful and painful and fascinating.

You tied up all the lose ends. It is a happily ever after story. The Franklins are finished. Vincent and O'Brien will eventually open up an detective agency. Claude came out and was accepted. Claude and James will room together at Berkeley. Everyone is happy. Thanks for an interesting story.

Russ Kahn is a larger than life figure. His influence and desire to gain his favor led the wetlands center to ask Toby to make a presentation, Next, Russ meets with Gordon's parents and buys all Drew's big pictures and some bowls made by Evie. He says he really likes them and did not know Drew was Gordon's father. Russ then stays for a basic lunch and regales them of his trip to Italy. He is very charming and not overbearing like some rich people. He also learns of Gordon and Brian's nude photo project.Will he want one done for himself? So far Russ is acting very friendly and interested and supportive of all of them. He may be just lonely and seeking friendship. I hope he doesn't become "the man who came to dinner"and becomes too involved and suffocating in their lives. We will see.

Success--James and Winston finally found the right cave and saw the distinctive markings. James told Winston--they want to meet him too--The ancients have a presence and are talking through James. This could be a very significent discovery! Hopefully, Dr Wagner is not following them. He is unhinged. He could hurt them and want to get the find recognition only for himself. Whatever is discovered might be worthy of revealing at the upcoming major event hosted by their parents.

Good for Colin. He stood up to his brother and mum and came out to them. They were shocked, He left his mum's with his gear. I imagine it will be a while before he returns and his mum will have to ask, He stopped to eat and feels much better after a good meal. He called Owain who suggested he think of this as a good step and one less worry. No what to do about his crew? He is going to think on it. Colin is becoming a better,healthier man who lives honestly.

The hammer is dropped and Micco is arrested. Calhoun seems to find evidence that is material. Micco is oblivious, It appears he is being set up and is on track to be taken to trial. The intervening event might be hurricane Arlene--the little bitch. Maybe, it could break up the jail and free Micco to run the the refugr to save the animals. In a better world, the hurricane could also destroy the evidence gathered from Micco.

Private Tim I hope the outrageous Zach prediction is not even close to being true. But, I can see Curtis hire a sniper to kill Travis and Will while they on the beach during surfing.

Ok--Christian is a bastard who tried to steal Pierre's inheritance from his grandfather. Piere;s co-workers worked with Christian to get the cottage and find the very valuable royal gold coins left by the grandfather. Apparaently, Christian is not a good businessman and needs the moeny from the sale of the coins. Colin will find out what the two thieves have to say and it might turn out that Christian is in legal trouble and wll not want to return to the US. Pierre and Armand will be flying to Paris. I bet they can get a real price for the coins . Armand might contront Christian and insure he leaves Pierre alone since his inheritance is safe and away from his capture. Thanks for answering some important questions and showing a way to keep Pierre safe.

Wars and battles are unpredictable and unsettling. The best plans can get foiled. France thought its unpenetrable Maginot Line would stop any German attack. Wrong ! Germany had better tactics , weapons and plans--like an end run through Belgium.Huntington has his assumptions on his fortress jail, traps and likelihood of an attack. If his non-wolf shifter guards mess up and cannot contain Asa, things might go haywire for him and his defenses. Leaders have to be ready to adjust and take advantage of opportunities when they appear. Sebastian and the Sentinels are formidable. Let us hope the insights from his upcoming shifter visitors can give him and his forces an advantage and improved tactics.

Sebastian and others will learn soon about the different type or non-wolf shifters Huntington gathered from different regions. I hope they have some weaknesses as guards that Asa can exploit. If he can escape, he might be able to get back to Sebastian with good and helpful intel on Huntington. He will not like his defenses being known. I am sure Huntington has other traps that can be avoided with the right knowledgefrom Asa. I would prefer Sebastian have all the advantages.

Caleb went through Germany and has returned to Monatana, No mention of a spy for Huntington? Is there one? He or she could be fed false info to confuse Huntington.....

Was not Big considered the future head of the Buck Company and gained his higher status as the senior Buck child? With the company apparently ruined by his father, Big is not so "Big." His future is very different. He could be crushed as well as having his mind blown. Travis is the one with the most money now. What is Big's mental state? Travis has Will and his family for support. Big might feel alone. I hope Big is seeking to rebuild a friendship with his Uncle Travis for both their benefit. Just saying uncle is strange. They might help each other out as they talk through what they have learned from their family messes. I also think they might need to gain strength as they have to jointly weather some storms if and when their family soap opera becomes public. Travis should keep an open mind and still be wary since they never were best buds. Will Big ask wondering what Travis is going to do with his money and would he try to restart the Buck Company? Will Bud want something from him -like money--that surprises Travis? Travis had earlier considered setting up some trusts but was not definite. It is too early to think long term since the nuclear winter of the meeting and Tom Buck letter has just been experienced, I guess.

Pushing too hard might delay the publishing--???

So Don or Joe has been shot and is in the hospital in serious condition. Det O'Brien wisely put police protection on the father of the twins. Are the good guys safe? The other twin should be kept in jail for a long time due to the prison switch and being an accessory to murder.

Grand while trying unsuccessfully to stop any action against Curtis might be wrong headed in a way he is not considering “I do not understand why a pledge of temporary non-violence is problematic,” Grand persisted. Curtis is inflammed and humiliated and isolated from his family. I can see him incensed that Jake is his brother. If and when he finds out his dad set up a trust for Jake, he could go ballistic. I can see Curtis try to hurt Jake and Travis and Brad and others. Grand and the others better be on guard. Curtis should be watched and spied on.

I like how the chapter ended after all the mess and personal failings. Will told Travis he was an easy guy to love. It says something very wonderful about their relationship..... Love matters--Travis said in thinking about his real father and his letter he learned that his father loved him and above all others, too.

If you need ideas for songs for the two--Defying Gravity, Stairway to Paradise, and I Dreamed a Dream. All well done by singers on Britain's Got Talent on YouTube. Maybe Rusty has a few fun Opera examples that he and Matty can sing. He just gave an extended peformance in the Han backyard so he must have ideas for his mate to share .

Matty told Rusty-- "I think of you as sex incarnate. Hence, you must wear nothing underneath your cape and mask.” Rusty told Matty.... "fuck, Matty, Slicky, whatever name you want to go by… you’re the best fuck ever.” They had so much good fun in and out of costume. They are so dedicated to each other and in love, What a wonderful experience. Thank you.

Things are looking up for Charlie and Michael. Charlie earned a starting spot working at a garage. Stacy got him the interview with his brother, but Michael had to show he was capable on his own. Michael is going to be released from the hospital. A gay hating doctor was found out and kicked out quietly. Michal along with Charlie and Stacy and Jason visited Mr Willets--Gramps--in his new ward. Stacy brought him better, homemade food. Gramps loved. It turned out the son of Gramps who died was known as a good person to Stacy.They were able to exchange pleasant stories. After the hospital visit , they will make a trip to the home of Mr Willets to fix his broken front door lock. I can see Mr Willets is now part of the extened family. What a wonderful turn of events!

What a happy time the boys. They are becomimg closer friends and exploring each other's bodies in a judgment free home. They know they have permission and must respect each other. Brian and Gordon have encouraged them. Toby and Noah are on the sexual learning curve and not open to anal yet. It is remarkable they can be so honest and relaxed. They treat each other with care . Later, I expect they will look back fondly on their time at the home of Brian and Gotdon

Actually, I was suggesting Armand inform Christian and in doing so find out if he was involved by judging what he said, Was he surprised? Did he inquire about Pierre's health. Would explain why the cottage was wanted? Did he sound worried about the henchmen being grilled by the police? Was he upset for Pierre or seem to worry the thieves failed? Did he have any ideas who was behind the attack ? It could be a family member who was cut out of the will or felt they were not properly helped. Armand could also tell by his tone if Christian was sympathetic to Pierre. Maybe, Armand might conclude from his conversation if Christian was behind the attack. I hope not.

Pierre ,as Armand thought, had joined a bad crowd who tried to rob him. Pierre was sad but was told he was drugged so what happened was not his fault. The guilty guys were caught. I hope they will reveal who is their leader and who is behind their plot.Pierre needs a new job. I think Armand should find out who is the leader and call and inform Christian in France. Armand took Pierre to the farm and everything fell into place. Pierre had to feel much better. Pierre began roadsting peanuts. Armand took food to the home and returned with kids to take more food to the home. Everyone wanted to help and be with Armand.

RainbowPhoenixWI asked...."Am I the only one that reads the whole chapter before the comments?" I wait to read the whole chapter before commenting, But, I can see how another tactic can be fun and spice things up.

I admire Beau's self-control and knowing what he had to do. Calvin, hopefully, will get a return visit later. They acted well together. Now--onto the wedding !
