I don't feel as if the emotional hesitation and bid for inclusion were ever fully resolved. The confession to feeling like garnish wasn't answered satisfactorily. Physically the bond is there, satisfying each other's kink I suppose, but even Jack's description of the foundational relationship left be a bit cold. Not enough emotion. Plus, I don't know how I feel about having to hide a relationship. Still a bit on the outside, isn't he? I really like the way Davitt addresses the 'third wheel' issue in a menage. The solution still leaves me feeling slightly tense and uncomfortable: if I was Zach I'd be a bit more pissed off. I guess I just prefer true love stories, and this seems more like animal physical attraction. Still a very well-constructed story with great characters and believable dialog (not always achieved in D/s stories!)
What an incredible short story! I would definitely read more about Zach, Jack and Taylor! Yowza!
