Wow! This tapped into fantasieis I didn't even know I had! My cage definitely got tighter while reading and shows no signs of lossening. An awesome peice of writing from an - as always - amazing writer!

I thoroughly enjoyed this! Great pacing, fun twist, vivid descriptions, great stuff! I always look forward to the end of the month!

That’s some serious sexed up debauchery there. Fucking love it.

I love this story! Thank you for writing it. I personally love the silicone part of the story. It’s not a common tag on the site but it is greatly appreciated. And I am a sucker for a happy ending.

The one thing I have always enjoyed abut serving your Masters is that they are very creative, unhampered by what they are supposed to do but doing what they want. Training an older slave to perform music by ringing a bell on his dick is a perfect example. The submission and humiliation of it got my clit hard. Great story. Great chapter.

I’ve been waiting for this chapter for days and it didn’t disappoint! This is such a great ending to the series. I’m so glad you decided to post it on here!

Another super hot story, written like only you can Jack. Thanks for sharing.

I loved the story I love the novel tie in chefs kiss so 👍

I also do look forward to seeing how Mahmood and Ray go forward. Mahmood will likely have a lot to think about all of this- while weres do what they must to survive- that comes with collateral costs- and having come from Lebanon and having known of the civil war- he knows how bad those costs can become. As for Ray, how he navigates his faith as he is will remain an interesting challenge- outside of local views on the fae in Ireland and Northern Europe- there is no real third race view in Christianity- opting for a demon angel binary- though the tales of St.Anthony the Great and his meeting with the satyr show variance on this. In particular, in light of Ray’s predicament and what was shown at his church- I can’t help but be reminded of St.Francis of Assisi’s Canticle of the Sun- particularly this line “Praised be You, my Lord, through Sister Moon and the stars, in heaven you formed them clear and precious and beautiful.”. This I think is something Ray may reflect on in the days to come. I really do see him becoming a Murdock character- like Daredevil. But I think I’m repeating myself. As for Mahmood- with his quoting of scripture to Ray- I think he may when questioned about his faith reply simply with how the jinn too are subject to judgement- for him- the almost amoral way weres operate in relation to other races beyond necessity and often with the implicit understanding that weres are better than humans in totality would seem utterly ridiculous. He likely knows full well that the angels bowed down to Adam in muslim tradition, and that the devil would have too- being a jinn- but refused out of pride. He likely too knows that just because he is a were does not suddenly mean he somehow no longer is bound by the old ways- he would likely see himself as being from amongst beings like the jinn now. Most importantly, he would know well how in muslim views, the jinn are commanded to virtue, and that they too will share in being judged. And while the weres may see this as blasphemy, Mahmood would probably assert the moon- Luna- has it’s own master- she does her obeyance to another. He would likely come to respect Luna, should he become a were- but not only her- perhaps in a way similar to Yousef. All these aspects would likely influence how he sees aspects of were culture and views- and his experience of the Lebanese Civil War likely will color how he sees were practices as well. He certainly will have thoughts on the situation Frank is in- I can imagine that much. For all rights and purposes that was human sacrifice- and even about Agent Al- he may have potentially been threatening the pack- but he was trying to stop further disappearances- and Mahmood likely knows of the anguish those around him (and possibly even he himself) felt when they had family members or friends who vanished and never returned…likely meeting dour ends. However, as having survived through that civil war- Mahmood would also know of how sometimes, less than ideal things must be done for survival- though one shouldn't hope for getting into that situation in the first place.

Yousef I think is very fascinating in how he’s becoming arguably because his narrative of being a seer aligns perfectly with his namesake- who was a scrier of dreams. Arguably, his love for Luna and balancing that with religious tradition is in my eyes somewhat comparable to the tale of Zuleikha- the infamous Wife of Potiphar. In muslim tradition- particularly amongst Sufis- her obsession over Yusuf is cast as true love- in truth love of the divine as that is what Yusuf reflects in his beauty- which quickly spirals into near mania but eventually saves her- and the two as having known each other well, which coupled with her generally shoddy marriage to Potiphar (the man is understood to have been a eununch in some readings and was generally…not really putting it out much- some jewish accounts argue he had the hots for Yusuf just as much as his wife.- leads her down a dark path of betraying her marriage, the man she does love by getting him thrown in prison to assert her own autonomy and assauge her hurt- seeing rejection as alignment with her neglectful husband and thus an endorsement of her own martial neglect, and other matters of plotting, but after long years of suffering alone, eventually makes the move to confess what she did to see the man she loved released from prison because she did use the power she had to harm him, regardless of her feelings or circumstances. Much like how Luna causes feelings of rapture in the weres, muslim accounts often highlight that Zuleikha held a feast where she invited those noblewomen who spoke against her love for Yusuf seeking to raise their own station in comparison to hers to show that her actions were hardly unreasonable- giving them fruit and knives so as to cut said fruit and eat. Quick as a whirl, she sends Yusuf in for a brief moment (likely to pass some fruit in- her husband wouldn’t have left him along with her for long after her earlier seduction attempt)- and the women are so raptured by his beauty they cut their hands with their knives, feeling no pain in the process, hailing him as divine in his beauty and not simply human- though he was. These accounts are also present in the Sefer HaYasher- a collection of jewish exegesis. The question becomes what will Yousef’s love for his new state of being lead him to- will it allow him to retain his connection to his family- or will it drive them away like Zuleikha drove away Yusuf? And like her…if that happens will he get the chance to fix that if he does do this? And if not…what then? Something tells me Tom is about to face a rather nasty set of consequences. Larry’s feelings may be right on the mark. Tom may have seen him leaving as protecting his family- and while that may be true- other people can certainly think of things differently. Tom’s daughter may want nothing to do with him or to even want to see him, potentially seeing his absence as the ultimate betrayal to her and her loved ones. I hope Tom isn’t too crushed by this- or that he winds up in Ruiz’s orbit afterwards- but that is up to how things go. As for familiars, I find in intriguing how you have placed them as being enchanted/befuddled in line with the horror aspect. With the jinn, two types are known- willingly and unwillingly. Both are present in the reign of Suleiman (Solomon). Islamic tradition has Solomon using shayatin (demons- malicious jinns) to build structures such as possibly even the first temple, dive and likely find pearls or riches from the sea, and do mining projects. Similar traditions are found in the Testament of Solomon and the Gittin tractate of the Talmud- the former mentioning an assortment of demons who labored under Solomon due to possessing his signet ring granted to him by - the shape of the ring is said to contain a hexagram in many readings particularly in the East- while western tradition took the shape to be that of a pentagram (I am more familiar with the hexagram shape)- the flag of Morocco’s star is said to represent it- but has carried other meanings such as the five pillars of Islam amongst other things. The Gittin in particular makes mention of the infamous Asmodeous (Ashmedai)- commonly seen as a demon of lust (this view seems to come from the Book of Tobit)- who was said to have gotten Solomon’s ring for himself, impersonated him for 40 days and saw Solomon needing to reclaim his throne. Asmodeus was said to have been imprisoned and thrown into a stone box or a urn of some sort into the ocean, sealed up. From that end of his did he gain the arabic name of Sakhr- the rock. He was often identified with certain scriptural passages by muslim views of a body being put on Solomon’s throne as a trial, and reported on in exegesis. Later medieval tradition also saw muslims working with jinns- some distinguishing between using the divine to control jinns, or being led around by them to evil ends. The Shams al Marif is a common example of a grimoire from the time period. Some famous jurists- like Al Tabasi of Nishapur who I've talked about before. Tabasi was also known for the creation of a treatise on dealing with jinns himself- al-Shāmil fī al-baḥr al-kāmil- The Comprehensive Compendium to the Entire Sea, distinguishing between licit and prohibited magical acts. Treatises on oneiromancy are also well known in muslim circles- and dream reading remains a distinctly practiced thing- with Yousef being a seer- I can see him making connections between himself and what he remembers of the story of Joseph. As for willing servants from the jinn, these found positions of high honor- in his armies and in his councils. While Paul likely will wind up a familiar- something tells me his fate isn’t going to be a simple as becoming a compliant little asset. There’s more there. After all, this part of the novella is about mates- but mates in were context typically means well...the equivalent of a spouse. Really, the concept of familiars and the like I think will be something Bill may wind up dipping his toe into possibly, though we first have to see what is going down with Paul.
