Manna Francis got under my skin again. This story reveals a disturbing and sad piece of Toreth’s childhood. A piece of the puzzle that might help readers understand the man Toreth has become.
Out to lunch with Sara, Toreth comes face to face with a man from his past—Gee Evans.
”The man nodded at Sara, only briefly, before his eyes went back to Toreth. His gaze was intense now almost hungry, as though he could pull something out of Toreth just by looking at him.”
The frightening jolt, power, and st ...more

Gee-sus! All my questions about Toreth answered in 9 pages.
That was totally unexpected and terribly disturbing - I'm ill and heartbroken, and I just want to weep for Toreth the boy.

The chance meeting of Gee a creepy old crack-pot reveals some of Toreth's past andprobably possibly the source of his psychosis.
And so, armed with new knowledge...I pick myself up and wipe the tears, and move onward. Let the mind fucking continue... ...more

We understand why Toreth is not completely normal.
This short story is good, but I hate the fact that the authors suggest us that all those who practise BDSM are mentally ill. Grrrrr!

Aww.. no wonder why Toreth ended in I&I. It was hard to read, seriously. But now I know a reason - a part of it - why Toreth is... Toreth.

Well ... this explains a lot....My poor , emotionally traumatized Toreth.

Very disturbing. Explains a lot.
