Re Chapter 8 ....
Great story. Princess Meadow read it first, and told me there was drama. I replied to her "So is this the first DevS story where people fire guns". Well it seems a gun did fire
My surveys have shown that many DevS couples have had the adventure of him being Affirmed in front of others, and many other couples who have not yet done this in real-life say that they both would enjoy it.
As we are all different I'm sure that there are many ways which this can happen or that people fantasize about it happening. So it is fun to read each take.
I thought that in Chapter 8 that the when the Knight first realized he was close to losing control that he should have said something so that the action would ease up or pause for a while. In your story I think he leaves this a bit too late - and thus it was too late. But in such a situation I can imagine his losing control being fairly sudden and unstoppable. So even if he had asked for her to ease up or stop a little earlier, the result could, in real-life, be the same. Just not quite as quick.
It was great that your story had the Princess accepting that 'accidents happen'.
I look forward to the next chapter.
