    Chapter 10

    You'll notice, if you look, that I'm back to posting every 5 days, which was my target before, so we're pretty much back there. Still, you're right, it's not the every-three-days kicks I sometimes have. The ethical issue came up in editing, and there's some gray area there that will probably let Sean slide.
  2. Jeremy could only come up with one song. I've completely exhausted him.

    September 23, 2000 Malibu, CA Wade “So why are you here?” I asked. “Because I love you. Because I’m sorry. And because I need you to know that.” He got it. I was so happy that he’d figured me out, yet again. “I have something for you.” “What?” He got up and I watched his magnificent form walk across the room, where he picked up a canvas bag. He brought it back to the bed, his dick swinging as he did, and set it next to me. “The tapes.” I looked inside, and saw V

    I could definitely see Granger doing that. The question is, would Gatling want to go?
  5. That's an idea, to be sure.
  6. Great advice from an expert! Working with you has not only helped my writing at GA, but the writing I do for my career.

    I'm glad you liked it! We're heading toward the end of this story, so this gives us a little bit of closure on a few of our loose ends (Somers and Roberts).

    Chapter 27

    January 29, 1797 “Seventeen guns, Mr. Clifton,” Granger ordered. He focused his telescope across the water at the boat carrying Sir Gilbert Elliot and his staff, and their ‘necessary’ baggage. It filled Belvidera’s launch, and would require copious amounts of space below. Granger wondered at his original desire to host the commodore, and what that would mean to his ship. God help them if they engaged an enemy. They’d be fighting with furniture and art work all arou
  9. That guy is too hot to be Grafton's dad. I can really see this guy as Sean, but I think I envisioned him as being a little more polished.
  10. Absolutely. But I can certainly see the Earl and Countess of Bridgemont in that circle.
  11. You're right about that, of course. I hope you will forgive the poetic license, but it makes it much easier to give Granger a setting to descend into upon his return. You did forget one very important additional venue: WIndsor. George III loved it there (almost as much as his court detested it). I'm hoping to be more diverse in the home arena, especially when the time comes for Granger to spend more time there.
  12. I'm kind of with Tim on this one, Jeremy. That guy looks like a good pubescent model for JJ. Not all dates go well, so I thought it would be kind of fun to show Wade struggling along with the dating scene. I don't know that I see an Alpha male as someone they'd need. In fact, maybe someone more submissive would work better. I haven't figure that out yet. Elizabeth Danfield wants things to be her way, period. If it's not a dire issue, she'll let it go, and mentally tally a few pissed-off markers against the person who defied her. It it's serious, she'll go postal. Still, she's a smart and calculating woman, and she certainly understands the doctrine of mutually assured destruction.
  13. I think the threat would have to be against revealing the Brotherhood, which she hasn't necessarily been trying to do, and not just against outing one of it's members. As Westie has pointed out, though, Davina's family is immensely powerful, so any move against her requires a considerable amount of caution on the Earl's part. As far as Kerry knowing so much about what was happening with Bridgemont, a certain amount of that must have been public knowledge. Even today, we have the Fortune/Forbes lists of wealthy people. Beyond that, i would think that Caroline would have shared much with him, knowing that he was going to meet with George, and knowing that she could trust him. The big question is how did she know she could trust him?

    Thanks for the queries Andy! 1. I think he is. 2. I wonder how long Llewellyn will be able to hold off before he gives into his urge to do something 'bad' to get off. 3. I think the other mid was probably drunk and pissed about losing. It helps your chances of promotion to have the flag officer on your ship. Lots of face time. Besides, Belvidera had that reputation at one time, before Granger took over. 4. Winkler is the ace in the hole, so to speak, running interference for Granger.

    I'm so glad you liked it! And I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who gets a thrill being able to use the rare emoticons.

    And this is a good opportunity to thank you for that Jeremy. I get to be more proper when I write JP. ;-)

    Well, this was all the way back in 2000 (he says, making a lame excuse for an obvious anachronism).

    I figured we should start the New Year off right.

    September 23, 2000 Malibu, CA Wade It was one of those serendipitous mornings, where I was actually up and ready before I needed to do something. I sensed it would be an intense day, and I knew I’d have to be at the top of my game, since I’d be dealing with my mother. My phone rang, emphasizing the whole serendipity thing. “Wade Danfield,” I answered, since I didn’t recognize the number. If it was one of my friends, or someone I knew, I’d be more casual. “Wade Danfield

    Chapter 26

    January 24, 1797 Granger leaned back in the large bathtub so his back was against Kerry’s chest. The warm, fresh water relaxed him, sapping the tension from his body. Kerry’s hands caressed his torso, working their way up Granger’s body, and while his touches were arousing, they were more sensual than erotic. He finally brought them to rest on Granger’s shoulders, where he began to knead the tense muscles. “Mmmm,” Granger cooed contentedly. “You like t
