Principal and teacher are bigots and allied with bullies while teammates - jocks and coach are progressive support and protectors of gay friend. This world is upside-down, I like it! 😁

Oh Dante, he entered the Vestibule of Inferno. Nine more circles to go...

Aww, this reunion is so charming!

Oh my...this chapter has been such a fun to read!!! Grat humor @Robert Hugill as always! And so realistic...your characters and their communication are so lively. I imagine them in pub as 'The Nags Head' from series Only Fools and Horses! 😂🤣

Medias are like fire, if it comes out of control, you easily get wildfire! Uncle Gorge deserves respect and appreciation. Not only for his concern about Pete but his humble and 'normal' behavior, despite the wealth he has. We can easily see whose genes Pete has! 😁

It would be relevant only if Beau wants to experiment some more because, without Andre and Skye's consent that would be cheating. If that is closed story for Beau, rising this issue now might only bring unnecessary doubts.

It is the conflict in himself between two needs. One is the need to protect his parents from pain and suffering and the other need is to ask comfort in mother's hug. What shall prevail?

I cannot find better words than @akascrubber a tragedy of epic proportions indeed! So many innocent lives lost, so many broken hearts due to greedy political ambition. Dio might win this battle and got a strong army leader, but he lost a friend, and it is real friends he is going to need in the following years. I hope we are not going to wait long for next chapter because I'm desperately eager to find out what is going to happen next... Great chapter @lilansui, evil plots surpass those in your masterpiece 'The Reluctant Consort' (and I thought it is impossible)!

Says the guy who drinks 'bottled sugar'... Jamie - out with coke, embrace the burgers! 😜 Duh, like it matters, he'll burn everything with his super powers...

Combination of 'normal' and 'paranormal' in this story, brings unique fusion of reality and adventure. This is a police story with fantastic insider view of procedures, rules, actions, trainings, communications and hierarchy of UK police dpt. It is also a love story between two strong, independent, stoic and intelligent guys. With dash of high politics and serious questions of ethics and morality, making right choices in unusual circumstances, @lawfulneutralmagewrap the story in witty, sarcastic English humor. The journey of Jamie aka Leon will leave you breathless asking for more!

To paraphrase Shakespeare 'To tell or not to tell, that is the question'. This should be subtitle to this chapter. As parent I would like to know, no matter how hard, painful. Speaking as child, I wouldn't like to hurt my parents, specially about something that happened long time ago and they cannot do anything about it! Although I've always declared 'out with the truth', I am not so convinced Chris and Beau's little secret should be told. Not because they should live in lie, neither because I expect some scandal and drama to occur. After so much time passed in the story and so many things happened...I started looking on that moment from the story 'Beau' as something very intimate and very personal between those two guys. Chris didn't even know Andre back then and this sexual moment only helped Beau's relationship with Skye. It didn't happen again, and it won't (maybe with partners included but certainly not secretly between two of them).

Oh my...why make it simple...?! 😂

Doesn't look like end to me, more like the beginning of the great series, especially now, with Jamie in 'special unit' fighting against archenemy Sandeep! Jamie might be accepted well in this new unit, and cake is going to be eaten but, honesty and ethical questions remains! The fact that the victims are mainly unanimous homeless people doesn't make it easier for Jamie. It is difficult to accept sacrifices and casualties must be done to gain higher purposes. And now @lawfulneutralmage...Book 2 please! Oh, and don't forget to mark story as 'complete'. I want to leave as many ⭐ as possible!!!! 😁

Yes, bachelor, never got married, no girlfriends ever mentioned, very open minded, very well gay sex educated...it brings some questions up! 😉

An amazing uncle, not just supportive but ready to give gay sex education...and, above all, to provide supplies! 🙂 I don't see any problem with your description of Pete's first sex! It's very realistic, such as your story. You are not writing a fantasy novel where first sex should look like a Kama Sutra practice in 45 positions!!!! 😁 The boys are enjoying their firs experience, it's nice (even teasing by Uncle George and Bobby).

That would mean that only drama is in Mike's head, which might be the truth, actually! @Arch Hunteris the only one with answers! 😁

You are absolutely right, too many open questions still... Your comment, one sentence actually (Mike is very lucky) has been a trigger for me to (over)think further. Liam is very nice and gentle...and whatever...in their personal communication. I would like to see him when real challenges occur. Not just about coming out whether yes or no, but will he stand up by Mike in front of family and friends? That was my question, not judgement.

Is he now? I mean, Mike's boldness brought him betrayal, rejection, outing, bulling and, ultimately, banishment from the home city. Liam didn't have to go through all of that. The real challenge for Liam is going to be coming out (whether by surprise or family talk) and his attitude toward Mike then. That is going to be test - will he stay by his side or play dumb!

OMG!!! 😱

Mike is a single child which means, although overwhelming at times, being a big brother to twins is actually new experience for him.

Mike is not in his own house; he is guest, and he is grateful to Maggie for accepting him. Of course he is more 'playing by the rules' than the others. And Liam is typical teenager annoyed by his younger siblings. Let's give him some time (and some Mike 😉) and he'll be hero big brother again!

What amazing story this is. I have been restrained by the topic at the beginning, expecting some bitter memories from the past (full of regret and disappointment) but, as always @Ronyx you haven't disappoint. You combine present and past so nicely that story keeps attention all the time, leaving as wanting more. Phil's past is just one segment of this multi leveled tale. There is also the down of new romance, Colin's family, Stanley's story, 'prodigal' son and who know what more cooking in author's imagination.
