Would that their prisoner find a way to kill them both. And it's easy. A simply blow to the throat. Dead and done. This is dragging badly.
The story intrigues me so please continue. Looking forward to the next installment.
Please continue. This looks like it can build into an interesting story. Already some mystery going which I also like.
This is getting very good. I appreciate the mystery and that all is not as it seems on both Lucy and Warder's sides. Looking forward to finding out more!
I think that means I'm doing something right! Thanks to all who are reading. It's a work in progress. Chapter Four is almost ready to submit and it's the one I feel like I've been working up to!
I am really enjoying this story! This has been the best chapter so far, honestly you set the stage so well here I don't even think you needed the first two! Very excited to keep reading and see where this goes
Am seriously enjoying this story. I like that Warder is intuitive enough to recognize when she's shutting him out. A less perceptive captor/antagonist might think that her tense body language means he's winning, but Warder recognizes it as a defence mechanism. And moves to break it down.
I also really like how the power relations between them as individuals extends outwards to be reflected in the power relations between their respective communities. Ie, not only does he dominate her one-on-one, but his people dominate hers.
More please!!
and I look forward to the next chapter. I'm not thrilled that he's moved straight to another woman for a quick "fix," but then I do like men who are fixated on only one woman.
Keeps me intrigued and wanting to know more. However as to length I don't like stories that have no ending. At some point it needs a end (not that you are there yet but I always need a conclusion). Looking forward to the next chapter.
Love love love this story.
Hell this dude must have one enormous willy, cause we already know it's not his cooking and it can't be his personality, cause he ain't got one, but he sure seems to be some weird kind of chick-magnet. Except that our heroin seems to always land up on the side that repels. Ooh, just had this image of her smacking the wall high-speed in reverse every time she tries to get near enough to stab him. Not pretty.
This background vein of hints you keep dropping so nonchalantly went really 'wow' and doing a jig on the richter's here at the end for me. Very happy. Gonna go paint my vehicle now. Grumble. Life sux. Until next chapter of course.
Your writing is flawless. I can not wait for your next chapter. Simply outstanding story you have here.
One of my favourite ongoing stories here ever since Ch. 01 :)
Can't wait for the next chapter, I just love the dynamics (and your fantasy, I guess, world?) . :)
I like that this is different than most of the stories i've read on here. i appreciate good world building, and think you're doing a good job so far. Please keep posting! also i liked the longer chapter, helps the reader get into the story a bit more and keeps us reading! Looking forward to how this story develops!
I love the setting... good job on the details and almost keeping it secret.
You should consider a novel. You could soften the sex a tiny bit and I think you would find a publisher.....or leave the sex, it worked in 50 shades. You are a very good writer. I am a writer, I know these things
you are different so different than the rest .your focus on character building without telling about their past and leave it completely to the reader to decide about each characters their action and to reach to the conclusion why the characters are being so is amazing
the characters their feelings at each moments the details its comes as a fresh breath
also you should go for publishing your work it deserves more audience than larger than offered here
Don't need to soften the sex (ignore the previous comment). Excellent story building.
I‘m curious about the story, it’s very reminiscent of Addison Cain’s “Shepherd” series.
I'm enjoying the story so far, there seems to be a lot of information that hopefully comes to light in the future. Mysteries about the mountain people(many mysteries), what Lucy was really doing, why the Islanders are essentially prisoners on the island. I'm here for it, there just so much unknown to the reader. Typically the readers tend to have more insight into the story that all the characters, not the case so far.
