Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6
Hmmm....this was an interesting chapter, and an interesting setup. Lots of moving parts...
First, as Gabe and Luke was talking: I was thinking along the same along lines as Mina. Before you assume that she can't handle the Dom lifestyle, try her! Talk it over with her and get her take on things. She might be a freak with it too! I kept thinking, how do you know she'd hate it unless you ask her about it? This is a woman he's going to make his wife, so she deserves that much. I confess, I don't know a thing about the lifestyle, but I'm thinking this a reasonable course of action to take with your intended. After all, no one is strictly born a Dom or Sub, right? I'm taking for granted it's something that's basically cultivated if one has natural tendencies toward it. And while I think she should be planning to storm off after her party, I don't think it's out of line that she's insulted by this. They basically called her a weak mindless idiot. Suggesting that she would do something degrading to herself as a woman and a person, just to please what she would consider to be her man's depraved notion of sex. Really? She's not that sheltered. And she has ears, eyes, and a brain to reason things out.
Gabe: I just think he truly cares and he doesn't want her ambushed. That comment about how 'we'll have nothing' did throw me off a bit, I have to say. And he perhaps does seem a little too interested, but in the end, I think its brotherly, not romantic.
Christina: She's baffling me completely. I want to know what happened to her? Randall mentioned earlier that she was more or less projecting her own family issues onto Luke and Mina. Luke in particular. My problem is, she raised this young man, but she's acting like he's some kind of sexual deviant who Mina should be afraid of. She's acting like a person she doesn't know and who should maybe be locked up. That sounds extreme, but look at what she just did. We don't exactly what it was, yet, but she seems to almost fear for Mina's life! She was clearly traumatized in her life and was it by Randall? He doesn't seem like it, however, his three sons are into the lifestyle, so was he the one that introduced it to them? I don't know, but something happened to her.
And yep, I know I was whining for more. I make no apologies for it...lol!
Good stuff!
