It’s the knee jerk response, we all feel like we should be doing more when we see things like this. Got a serious case of martyr complex coming on?Ĭash manages a tired smile, Yeah, I have, he straightens, I shall give it all up and go to the poor and downtrodden, share their mean lives, and succour them with my presence and psychology skills. It seems I have led a rather sheltered life until now. We wouldn’t be able to afford to do this if we hadn’t made all those wealthy people insanely happy.Ĭash sighs, I know, ignore me Michael, I’ve just had a close up view of the shitty side of life and it’s come as something of a shock. It’s what I should have been doing from the start, rather than jerking around giving the super rich the kind of orgasm they think they deserve. It’s not going well, is it? Michael says, The whole Outreach project, it’s not as easy as we thought it would be.Ĭash looks up at him, his expression fierce, I don’t care how hard it gets, this is what we should be doing.
Michael doesn’t think he has ever seen his colleague so drained. Cash slumps forward and drops his head into his hands.
That boy has a lot of endurance, Michael says. Trent isn’t asleep, Cash says quietly, Micah is, but Trent is just lying there, I just checked the cameras. Cash crosses the room and lowers himself into the bucket chair next to where Michael has strategically positioned himself to watch the doors. Michael looks up from his tablet as Cash lets himself into the dim lit lounge of the crash suite. Trigger warning for adult scenes, abusive behaviour, homophobic language, and depression Read more
It features a grieving Daddy dom who needs to let himself act on his instincts, and two traumatised young men who are desperate to be cared for. Nobody has said that before, because it has always been their fault, right from the start.Ĭan you reach us? The Outreach Series, Book 2 is a hurt/comfort age gap gay romance by Romilly King, author of the Delphic Agency and Handled Series. They've heard a lot of promises, Trent and Micah, but the serious man with the sad eyes insists he's going to fight for them, so they can stay together, and he says that nothing that has happened so far was their fault.
He's not going to assume it will last, but he'll take it while he can, get his strength back to face the next threat thrown at them. Trent thinks this must be limbo, but a nice one, not like the one they were expecting. For once he is clean, and Micah, when he curls around him, doesn't smell like dirt and sweat and tears. There's filling food and, blessings indeed, a hot shower. There has been a warm bed and soft clothes. Those are the first words Trent says to every new person thrust into his and Micah's life. "Before you ask, he can't speak, and before you try it, we're never separated."
