Replies for eh....5-7 about LOL not doing individual replies this time as I am pressed for time today. Ok, some have called Casi a dominant sub, but well, he was, until chapter 8, the Dom and Zane was more of a sub until now. They are sometimes called pushy bottoms and some other things I can't think of at the moment. It may or may not change but I haven't decided. The Carrillos did have others there, the ones holding Zane back while Nick ran to warn the Carrillos, I just didn't mention them, but they are always surrounded by others. I have let the firehouse be mellow for now but the conflicts and fear are still there, I will explore it further. They are a tight bunch and I know they won't immediately cast him out in any way especially with the chief and Kenny sticking up for him but he will have problems to come. Seriously that is a straight man's first concern is that a gay dude will hit on them. Stupid but true! Antonio and Dante don;t care if he's got the merchandise or not. The money is to show them he can be a part of their organization and to punish him for his people stealing. They don't have to have a reason, they are in charge. Coming up more on the firehouse adjusting to Zane coming out, the couple try to figure out what roles they truly want in the relationship (dom or sub not top or bottom) and how that effects their relationship, Casi finds out what it's like to be an underboss then the big challenge to their relationship when tragedy strikes. Thank you all for your reviews I truly love them and I'm so sorry not to thank you individually this time, I'm trying to catch up on phone calls today and some paperwork for work since my second full day back is tomorrow and they seemed to have left all my work there waiting for me!! grrrr, thanks to all of you and stay tuned!!

Here are review replies for eh chapters 3-4 about LOL Xtreme:Thanks so much for your review! Much appreciated! Lisa: So glad you like the story! Yes, many twists and turns ahead, and Casi is shaping up to become one of my favorites already. Zane is in the dark a lot about Casi's life but stayed tuned for his reaction! Thanks sooo much for your reviews!! Dazed: you crack me up. You also had me singing wild thing that whole day after I read that review! Yes, Dante and Antonio are coming, can't give away more than that! Thank you as always for being such a great reviewer!!! Frozen: Casi is a lil bit like Peyton in that he is the more dominant of the couple but he's not flamboyant and is much more serious but yes, he is very naughty and they have yet to explore their naughtiness...About the model I found for Troy, I thought I answered so sorry if I didn't. I don't know. I put in a general search for the type of guy I was looking for and found that face who was almost dead on with the one in my head so I went with it. I hate not knowing the names too, but if I find it I will let you know. Only the ones from Cabin Fever will be showing up and I'm not sure how much yet. Mostly just Dante and Antonio for now, oh and Nick of course. Thank you so much for your reviews I appreciate them more than you know! Celtic: Yes, the ones I found for my characters are yummy aren't they. I have a huge crush on Fransisco (Casimiro) now and have a few yummy pics in my file on my comp. LOL Glad you like the smut, it's so fun to write More smut to come, more love and some DRAMA!! Thank you for reviewing, I appreciate it bunches!! Jojo: So glad you like the story! Thanks for reviewing!! Katniss: Yes, Casi is going to have to come clean and I'm not even sure how Zane will react but it won't be long now and there are a few more bumps along the road for my new boys. I wouldn't worry about Dante or any of the Carrillo clan. This is set between Cabin Fever and Spring Fever so not too much of a spoiler except to say they all lived to go to Dante's wedding!! LOL TruGrit: I watched Clueless too. I love that movie! Yeah the boys are back and IDK if we will see Blaine yet but Dante is coming for sure, now will Casi live to tell the tale??? Thank you for reading and reviewing!!! drumline: thank you for your reviews! I'm so glad you like my stories!! You make my day! Misakixusagi: Love you girl! Thanks for editing for me even though you're not well. I appreciate you sooo much!!! ((((hugs)))) Thanks you everyone, and if I forgot anyone I'm sorry and thanks!!! I'm not sure if I will be updating tomorrow as I FINALLY get to go back to work, only for a day then the weekend again but it's a start and I am anxious. Yeah I'm surprised too! LOL I will try to get one out but if not Saturday for sure. Love ya all and until next time, I just want you to know how much I appreciate my reviewers, my readers, followers, those who favored me and voters. You make my day everyday!

Here we go reviews replies for chapter 1. Excited by this new story. I think it's going to be write and hopefully to read too. FrozenAphrodite: So happy you liked the first chapter, and yeah the more he thought about it the more more Zane got a a little obsessed but at least not in a creepy way. Thanks for your review as always it made me smile Katniss: At first I was thinking of having the love interest be a pyro but it would have been way too hard to reconcile so I made him into a godfather type (think young vito corleone) but that's the only hint I will give Thank you for your review! I always love them! Celtic:Well don't want to give much away but as you can see from Chapter 2 he's not a pyro, I thought about it when I was first getting the story ready in my head but it just didn't seem possible. So no spoiler hopefully but the mystery man does have some interesting things to be found out as the story progresses. Zane is a little less mysterious pretty straight forward and simple (in his ways not head lol) which should make some extra heat (pun intended) in the story! Thank you for your review and continued support, so appreciated!! Misakixusagi: So happy I finally memorized how to spell this screename of yours so I don't have to keep looking back!! LOL My girl, my beta!! Love ya!! Thank you for the review and for being there cheering me on when I get worried my writing isn't up to par. (((hugs))) Jess: Thanks for your review and compliment!! I always love your reviews they make me smile!! Dazed: Thanks for the cheer! LOL As always your review brought giggles and happiness and I'm really glad you like it so far! SilverSkyline: Your entire office is talking about my stories!!?? That is so cool you have no idea what a boost that gave me to know that!! Glad you like the new character and I really love your review. Thanks so much! VincentWise: Your review cracked me up!! I almost fell off my chair laughing and with my back booboo that would not be good but would have been worth it! LOL Thanks so much for the review!! Itzy: Glad you are still around!! I have no idea what happened to your reviews still. I got no email or anything telling me why nearly 20 reviews were missing but glad to see it wasn't because you got thrown off for something. I would miss you. I have my characters up on photobucket for you again, I'll link it below. (hugs) and thanks for the review, and I will be glad you are still reading even if you can't review!! Jessie: Ah you know me the cliffy whore of AFF!! I have to, it adds to the suspense and I do admit to getting a wicked little smile when I do it but please don't hate me I wouldn't if I couldn't update as fast as I do!! Thank you as always for the reviews!! Jenae: My facebook reviewer thanks for reading and letting me know you liked it!! I love being able to bounce stuff off of you it really helps!! ((hugs))!!! I want to thank everyone for reading and I'm glad you like the new story!! I will try to reply more but you guys know me, I suck at it! I try to make up for the cliffy's and the sad replies with steady updates and I'm still out of work thanks to my little fall, but I am feeling better and going to PT three times a week. Love you all and the pics are at photobucket for those without facebook, and on my facebook for those who have it.

noted and stirring in the brain...I like it!!

I took a fall at work and not just a fall a fall on stairs! Yeah it hurts but the time off of work and me hating daytime TV is perfect for me to write. This one should be done in about three more chapter I think! Maybe more I’m not sure yet but I am also writing ficlets for my lovely readers. Any requests send me an email, leave a message for me on facebook, reply to this thread or just write one in a review if you don’t have any of the other options. I am doing them like this..combined for Cabin Fever and Better than Boot Camp and another for this one and Biker Trash combined. Any couple you want to see in any situation let me know or if you want to see two of the characters together who normally aren’t together (eg. Nick and Blaine, Devin and Peyton) I can always make it a fantasy daydream or something so anything is up for grabs. Please keep me busy so I can take my mind off of the boo boo and the fact I'm off of work and ALL the stress that goes with that. SAVE ME FROM SOAP OPERAS AND TALK SHOWS!!!! LOL Licks and tickles to all my beautiful readers!!! Rain

Hey everyone, thought I'd get a few replies in although most of you have said and asked pretty similar things so for this one please allow me to answer the questions generally, it's just a bit easier on me for this one. Many of you have voiced concerns over Tom and most of you also love Tom. There ya go! There is your answer.... I will elaborate...To keep the slave/pet on his toes the Master has got to use a combination of hurt/comfort. Strict and harsh punishments for wrong doing and sweet kindness for reward, and the corresponding sex to go along with each. Especially in the training process there will be times when Tom is going to be a total prick but a very hot total prick. Andrew was a handful as you remember and he's not completely tamed yet. I do realize that I have made Andrew and Tom AND Sammy and Neil push the boundaries a little more, okay a LOT more than any of the former characters I've created. I wanted to push my own boundaries as a writer, and make my characters a little more wild this time around. Tom is taking on a one on one level the lifestyle that Devin lived in the dungeon but I am showing the training in a little more detail. If you read Better than Boot Camp you will remember the dick smacking punishment Sergio received, well, I'm going t that general direction a bit more with these new characters. I do promise the love is there. Tom already is feeling strongly for Andrew and vise versa. Sammy and Neil are really pretty common as far as I have seen in my juicy research. There are millions of amateur sites for couples like Sammy and Neil, but of course I am going to push those boundaries as well. As far as Niel not being jealous, it happens. The heart is what is important to him, not the body. I don;t really know when Road dog is going to find out, but yes of course he will. I don';t know how I will write it yet either. That is pretty far in the future. I have got a lot more to this story and it may be longer that it's predecessor. It's also a LOT more filled with sex. Nearly every chapter will be filled with juiciness. Tom is just getting started and so is Sammy, but that's all I will give away. My chapters are containing more so one couple per chapter is going to stay for awhile. Each of my last like 4 chapters have been 10 pages or more on my computer's Word. Soon though, maybe next chapter Sammy and Andrew's story combine for at least a bit before they start coming together more. The reason for the title of the story is because all of these men have been and/or still are hiding what they are doing and who they are for one reason or another. Not just a gay problem but something we all do so I figure that is why these characters are a little more easy to relate to and a lot of fun. I am more free on Sundays now that the Walking Dead is over for the season so hopefully I can get the next chapter out early in the AM and possible get two up tomorrow. Hope I answered most of the wonderings...If not you guys know me, my future chapters will. This chapter (12) had no sex but some really important details of who and why even if they are not fully explained yet. Thank you all for your comments, questions and just the love! I am happy everyday when I wake up to see your comments and it makes my day go so much better you have NO idea! You may be aving the life of my boss some days *Licks* Until tomorrow!!

Didn't get to put an author's note in for chapter 9 as I was in hectic hell today!! To FrozenAphrodite I did not take offense at ALL as I am after Tom being my meanest Dom yet. The other's I've written have been much more loving almost from the start so I'm delving deeper. Believe me, Andrew will test tom more than once. There is nothing that can break his spirit and Tom would never want that. More replies tomorrow for the rest of you all! *licks*

Dazed: Yes the three subbies being friends would be too cute. I must figure out a way to do that. I watched the youtube of the song you suggested and DAMN!! I love those guys already! So hot and yummy I got new story ideas just watching it! ((HUGS)) thanks hun!!!! And thanks for the reviews, I love ya!! Tabfan: Thank you for the review and I'm glad you liked the spanking. I think you will love where it goes Slash reader: Thanks for the review and I am so glad to like my stories!! You are very welcome, I like updating fast because I know the stories I like drive me nuts when I have to wait!! LOL Katniss: Yes Tom has shown great restraint but not any longer Sammy is going to try to hide things and that will make their new relationship much more steamy than the old one! TRUgrit: LOL about Regina! Yeah she's a bitch and so is Andrew's father but they will both get theirs, just not until I have a little fun with them first! Don't worry I am going to have some Malcolm and Kirk love coming up! Thanks for reviewing! Itsy: Tom and Andrew were made for each other as far as the bonding time is happening! LOL Thanks for the reviews they are soo great! Jessie: Tom's true purpose is going to be a surprise and a half! Thanks for your reviews they always make me smile!! And I know you meant Andrew! See how it's so easy for me to mix the boy's names up!! Makes you wanna write M/F fics instead, but I won't TNels: Thanks for the review and so glad you like this like you liked Biker Trash. I loved writing Biker Trash and couldn't let those characters go yet! LOL Celtic: Glad you liked the spanking LOL! Thanks for the reviews and there will be much more to love from both of these couples! Jade: Thanks, yes I do feel better, that cold or whatever hit me hard but didn't last long thank goodness!! Thank you for the review and I'm glad you like the story!! Rachel: Glad you like the sequel! thanks for reviewing! To everyone, I am glad you like the second story and there will be a lot more to come. Just FYI Tom and Andrew's SL is a loving relationship, or it will be, with incredible amounts of B&D. Andrew's need for attention makes him crave it and Tom is the man to give it to him. I won't let on yet where Tom gets the need but that will come in later chapters. Sammy and Neil's dynamic is changing a bit from their original relationship because they are going to do more exhibitionism/voyeurism. Sammy is still a sub for Neil but in a different scale completely from Tom and Andrew and even from Mal and Kirk. Thank you all for reading and reviewing and I appreciate you all! Back to work now after I post! LOL

Here we go I'm up to Chapter 21 posted and in the process of writing 22. Thank you all for your reviews. I love you guys! Here we go! To all wondering about Malcolm's Dad I left a hint earlier when Guy was looking into his (Malcolm's) past so it's not TOO much of a stretch that Malcolm's dad is in prison with Kirk. I was going to stretch it out until Kirk found out but I had to get it out because of some other stuff I have planned. Hope it wasn't too far fetched!! Malcolm's dad isn't going to know who Kirk is for awhile though as Kirk doesn't know how he will take his kid being gay or having an older con boyfriend and Kirk doesn't need the trouble. Jessie: Yes I could not make it longer so six months went better and is an actual possible sentence for the crime Kirk plead guilty to so it worked out:) I hope you aren't counting on Neil too much but I won't say more than that! LOL Thanks for your reviews! Love them!! TRUgrit: Your review made me laugh my butt off! Cliffy stiffy for sure, glad you liked the make up sex! LOL Faithsins: No need to worry I update daily LOL Thanks for reading!!! Wolfluv: You are still killing me!! I always get a laugh and a smile on top of it when I read your reviews!! BTW Don't know if I like cliffy whore or cliffy queen better...hmmm Glad you like the new characters!LOVE you girl! Mira: I agree I wanted Malcolm to get some confidence up, I mean with a gorgeous hunk of man like Kirk completely in love with him how could he not, but he'll never lose that subby part of him we love! Thanks for reviewing!!! Katniss: Hope you didn't cry too much when Kirk had to go away! I did! LOL Dazed: I hope you are liking the new characters as I put a few of them in recently. Donnie is one that will keep up into the finish or almost anyway, Guy may come up again I'm not sure yet, Neil is for sure and Wyatt of course. Neil is an iffy character right now even to me. Sorry about the cliffies!!! Don't kill me!! Thanks for reviewing I so appreciate it!! Celtic: Donnie is for sure on Kirk's side especially now. He will have an even bigger role coming up. Kirk is really trying hard to behave in there so he can get out but now he wants out even more. Neil isn't working for Guy but he is working for someone...and yes Malcolm needs his love and protector and Kirk is going to be itching to get out to help him!! I love your reviews thanks so much!! Jade: Hi! Thanks for reviewing!!! I'm glad you kept reading!! Glad you like it!! addiena saffir: No digging is quite literal as you will soon see! Thanks for reviewing!! Misakixusagi: Glad you didn't cry! I told you I was gonna mash it up a bit! LOL Thanks for the reviews sweetie!! Anyone I missed thanks for the reviews and support! IT means the absolute world to me that you are enjoying the story and let me know that! *LICKS NIBBLES*

HAPPY ST> PATRICK'S DAY all you happy little green lovers!!! My head hurts but drank enough green beer to make my tongue that color for at least a week!! LOL So today...I write! Finally getting around to this! Sorry it took 9 chapters to get around to it!! Here we go!! First of all thank you all soooo much for the great reviews and support for this story that I was really confused on for awhile, but it's kind of just coming to me now and taking on it's own life. I love you all mucho mucho! Wolfluv:Yes, the cliffy whore is still alive and well! LOL I loved how your soda came out of your nose when you read about the women walking in on Trevor. AND you and the others who guess he knew they were coming were right. He did know. The Manson family!! LMAO!!! Loved it! They are huh! Creepy and perfectly scary like them!! LOL Dazednadconfused: The Cliffy Witchy!!! Yes, I am and sorry it drives you crazy but it's fun...lmao! Yeah Caleb and Cain are twins but the how why and how they got separated and all that is still to come. And yes, his parents know how creepy Caleb is! They are creepy too as you will see! Lisa: So glad you're enjoying this! Caleb is a little off but you will discover why he is so creepy sooner or later. I haven't even come close to knowing how long this story will be yet! Cain did luck out meeting Omar and Karen or...is it just Cain himself that does that to people?? That is yet to be seen! Trevor and Judy will talk eventually but it will bring up more questions than answers! Cain's grandpa may or may not have some of those answers! I'm glad you and everyone seemed to like the comic relief in Trevor getting busted naked by the moms! That one just came as I was writing it too. Creeps me out how this story is doing that!!! Katniss: Yes, they are brothers and soon they will discover not just adopted brothers but I am pretty sure everyone got that part already so I am not letting any cat out of the bag! LOL I know someone can stop Caleb just who it will be hasn't worked it's way into my crazy brain! LOL Jessie: Yes, the fact that Caleb killed Nigel is coming out soon, but there is a mysterious lack of proof and the one who turns him in will suffer for it! To be continued! More answers and questions still to come.... To everyone before the last two pages of reviews I hope your questions have been answered in the story already I THINK I did but if not let me know! Thank you all for the reviews, I really love them! They make me want to write more and more each day! SO if I get fired you all will support me while I stay home and write.....???? J/K I'm balancing pretty well so far!! LOL LOVE YOU *licks*!

Here it is as promised my first review reply section for my lovely wonderful and faithful readers! I will begin another one for my other story later today. Got to get SOME writing done today hopefully! I'm not going to go through everyone's reviews from the beginning of the story as that would take me too long and like I said I do wanna get some writing done today BUT I will do the last few days then try to keep up after that with at least every other chapter. Here goes! cheeskun: Glad you liked the sex scene! Also I will be letting you all in on what happened in Kirk's past soon. midnightsscream: Yeah they are a strange couple but those are teh kinds that I like the best;) Sex was just what Kirk wanted at first but Malcolm got to him quickly. wolfluv: My sista! Your reviews never cease to have me rolling on the damn floor. You're so funny and sooo excitable! LOL No you all are NOT paying me enough and for that you gets cliffys! LOL Just kidding, I just enjoy a good cliffy now and again! chromer and a lot of the club members don't like TJ so no, he doesn't visit them often. Also why not a lot of them knew who Malcolm was even though Gloria and TJ had been together for four years. Misakixusagi: I am going to have more about Kirk's past. I'm not sure how long the story will be but there is going to have some stuff come up that force Kirk to look at his past and figure out his feelings about Malcolm. There will be some sadness come up as well so please stick with me through it! privers: Glad you like it and there will be quite a bit more;) CelticThunderFan: Ah what can I say I LOVE your reviews! I hope you're surviving the snow! Kirk's past is coming...almost thinking of a flashback chapter. dazedandconfused: No I didn't name Fang after Harry Potter but love the accident. I am a Potter FREAK! Loved the books! I devoured all of them the second they came out! You are pretty close to what is going to happen. Mal is going to be the one who finds out about TJ's scheme but how and what happens next is still locked in the dark recesses oc my funky brain! LOL Katniss Everdeen: I am going to explain soon what exactly caused the wound Kirk got, but know now that it does have a lot to do with TJ and his betrayal. Jessie: Don't worry any more about Malcolm. I think you and everyone will be surprised at some of the changes he goes through. Lips are sealed!! LOL dantae, Sandrine, Dragon, and all others thank you so much for taking the time to reveiw and tell me how much you are enjoying my story! I really enjoy reading them and they inspire me to get off my lazy butt and write more! LOL Everyone: Some really cool things to come. Malcolm discovers things about himself that none will expect. Kirk is going to go through some hard times and we will also see some of his past.
