Betting Troy is wishing he was managing a McDonald's right now because the trouble coming his way from so many sides is going to make him wish he was born in another country, in another year, on another planet in an alternate universe.

Didn't Michael borrow money from Ted and Emmett too over the years I mean he has a million dollars in his accounts?

Rita Montgomery should be worried about what is heading her way.

Gardner and Ryder should be preparing to leave the country because a lot more handcuffs are getting ready to be used and a lot more people are going to be heading to prison.

I don't think they have a courtroom big enough for all these people this may have to be moved to a football stadium or coliseum.

The Family may need a six month vacation after all of this or some serious therapy.

Waves Hi Darling!

Okay I can’t remember where I left off, so I’m starting again from the beginning. I’m already loving it, as I knew I would. Just think only 400,000 words to go! You know I like it looong...

Hugs Kathleen

Ah Nichelle, so good to read something from you! Welcome back!

This part is my favorite in the chapter: "The postion of toe-curling orgasmic bliss by the Taylor-Kinneys standards was filled long before you were even on his Pep-N-Pant radar. To put it a little milder, you were the equivalent to vegetarian dessert when a man used to having sugar." You have such an imagination.

Good luck with the move!

It was good to see your story appear. I need to reread a few chapters to get back to it. Thanks for the update. Good luck with the house I hope everything will be fine for you.. Take care of you and your family

thanks for update.  good luck with the house

Pep-N-Pant - I had to stop reading until I got my laughing under comtrol!!! LMAO.

What a MESS! And SHAME ON YOU!!! You didn't even give us a GRAIN or GRANULE of what has Perkins running scared. My mind is in overdrive. I had read my last review to reacquaint myself with what was going on, and I feel like I can pat myself on my back, as I had nailed a couple of things from this chapter.

As I said: My mind is in overdrive. Black Market? Do they kill people and harvest their organs for sale? Slave trade? Sex Slaves? (I told you - overdrive!) Maybe they have told Perkins they'd play 'Slice-N-Dice' and someone will get his organs.

Again: SHAME ON YOU for putting these thoughts in my head.

You mentioned Dexter (I LOVED that show!) but were you aware someone wrote a story years ago about Brian as Dexter? Only thing - it wasn't finished - so I have no idea how it might have turned out. No use pushing Mikey off the hospital wall, if you can play Dexter! LOL

On a side note - I sincerely hope you got ALL your money back from the other house. How awful they didn't make sure it was up to code.

Take Care... and thanks for taking a little time to give us peons another chapter.

HUGS - Cathy

As always a perfect chapter. Amazing how entitled some people are. Welcome back for this update. Take care of yourself. Good luck with the house buying. Hope to see another update when you can manage it. 🥰🥰

I hope  you are feeling better.

Aargh! I just lost my review!!!! My LONG review! How could it just say I need to sign in to access that function, when I haven't signed out?! Damn computer! So, now I have to try and remember all the important stuff I had written, and I'm sure it won't be as good...

Vance, Vance, Vance... he sure got himself in a mess. If he wouldn't have paid Sapperstein for the tape of Justin, he might not be in as much trouble as he is... He sounds like he hates homosexuals (Homosexual agenda?)... yet, everybody he involved himself with in this case is - HOMOSEXUAL! (I'm shaking my head and LMAO!). And just what was his agenda with hiring Troy Perkins? So, Ryder used Kip to bring charges of sexual harassment against Brian and have grounds to fire him. Brian had already PAID Troy for sex, so I really doubt he would have slept with Troy again, so what was the agenda? It also sounds like he illegally stole the company from Eric's father. So, yeah, he's probably smart to give his wife the no contest divorce, and besides, he's not going to need anything where he's going.

Eric... I almost feel sorry for the guy. It sounds like he was suffering from the dreaded 'losing your virginity'... thinking you're in love with the person who made you feel so amazing, and you just want to be with that person again. Then the fact that Justin was cruel, and threw him away, he might have gotten his thinking twisted, thinking if Justin would just give him a chance again... well, it's not an excuse... just a theory, but whatever.  But it does sound like he has a great friend in Franklin, though. And who knows? Maybe turning evidence against Troy and Vance... is it possible the guy could get a fine and community service? (And be made to give a VERY public apology.) Sure, the guy sat in on the meetings with Vance and Troy, and helped make plans to try and bring Brian and Justin to heel, but other than draw those cursed boards, what did Eric really do? Vance's attorney said Novotny and Peterson are going to try to save themselves by placing blame... but seriously, I think anything they say will be taken with a grain of salt. Whereas Eric was hired by Justin (not Vance who planned to use him as a pawn) and sat in on all the meetings with Vance and Troy. He listened to their plans. He knows the 'whys' and the 'reasons'... if anyone can throw Vance and Troy 'under the bus', I think it would be Eric.

Claire should have paid more attention to that old saying: "What goes around, comes around." Karmic energy is returned with the same intensity with which it was generated. All the times she had a hand in Jack beating Brian... well, it's her turn. Too bad, so sad. But the fact that her face now resembles a slab of butchered pork... Well, maybe it will help remind her what Brian looked like the numerous times after he was beaten.

Aaron Hasselback must have drawn the short straw... first Lindsay, then Claire, now... who? I don't think it would be Lance, although I don't remember him getting counsel after Harry, but with Troy Perkins just arriving, that would be my guess. And yeah, he could definitely be just as annoying as Lindsay Peterson. The man deserves a medal.

Well, I'm ready for an update seeing as I'm all caught up.

Again, when they find the guy he hired to do the remodel on this house, I seriously hope he goes away for life... you can't get anymore aiding and abetting than this! And who knows, maybe the guy who did the remodel is more involved than just doing the remodeling...

Just how many Brian-lites have there been? Will anymore be uncovered? They should probably check his yard with ground penetrating radar just to be sure. (and maybe that's where the remodeler is!) But it will be interesting to know if he shot the rest of the body full of formaldehyde and is saving it behind the locked door, and is using it to perform acts of necrophilia.

And I'm curious if Michael had the guy get some plastic surgery so he was more of a dead ringer for Brian... because as they said, Brian has some pretty unique features.

Okay... so I was up early today to catch up on this story... I missed it so much, and decided I needed to read for my own peace of mind.

I was so very happy to see our guys married and further reunited... I hope they send wedding announces to all the individuals currently residing in their 6x8 cells. 

I seriously hope Davies gets demoted to police technician. Not only will he NOT have interaction with the public, but he will have a HUGE pay cut. It would serve him right. While on duty, he threatened an individual with bodily harm. So he can take the boring desk job, or find a new place of employment.

Deborah Grassi... I do hope that little tidbit of how she defrauded the government comes to light, so that her widdle boy knows his mother is a fake and liar, and so would all of Liberty Avenue. But, it really bothers me that the government chose to let it be kept quiet for the sake of her young son. WHY??? So I have to ask, if Lindsay's only crime was to attempt to defraud the government, (since she didn't actually go through with the wedding) would they have kept it quiet for the sake of her young son? Because when Lindsay was arrested, THAT'S why she was arrested. All her other crimes came to light later. So the whole thing with Debbie really bothers me.

HUGS  ~Cathy

Nice look at what is happening to the others involved in trying to keep Brian and Justin apart.

Wow, you have no idea how I do my happy dance when a new chapter is posted.  Such wonderful writing as always..  You know I love your stories, but this one and Before I Let Go have a special place in my heart.  Hope all is well with you.
