Part of the "all of you not understanding Melissa's motivations" comes from the choice early on to tell the story primarily from Parker and Bill's point of view. So, you never hear Melissa's thoughts, for example. But, again, the fact that this wasn't somehow brought out does represent a plot hole, and thus goes directly back to the authors.
I never questioned why Melissa did what she did. It was to protect her son. Once she entered that rabbit hole, how could she not spiral downward? I just hope that there will be an option for her and Parker to dig themselves out and 'become closer' along the way.
And just to be clear, 'become closer' means hooking up. ;)

the truth is, when we started playing this game, this is what we expected! The element of incest excites us !!

I tried to play and I personally did not get it. It didn’t work that way that I’ll even put on a diz. I do not like to watch the suffering of defenseless people.
Then this is not for you. Not to judge, but did you not look at the tags?

Oh, there's no question that Parker misses things and acts stupidly sometimes. That's deliberate. I'm not saying it's 100% realistic, but it advances the plot... :D
I think Parker has demonstrated more than once that he can be that clueless - and I've known people in real life who were just as bad. Emotions tend to cloud logic.

Je me doutais évidement que ca concernait la suite de l'histoire a pars ce passage le reste est très réaliste merci encore pour le travail fait et merci de la réponse

I knew it had to do with the rest of the story, except for this part, the rest is very realistic. Thank you again for your work and for the answer.

The story has too much potential. I hope we will get the next version sooner
  1. You're encouraged to read the OP regarding update schedule.
  2. It's only been just over a month since 11b was released, so I think we can cut Rich some slack before we start whining about the next one - two months is about the fastest that he's done updates, and it's frequently been longer. Patience.

so unavoidable netoRARE or netoRI
If that is a statement, if you:
  1. Read the OP
  2. Specifically, the third line of the OP
  3. Understand the concept of a Kinetic Novel
Then you'd know that statement was unnecessary.

On the other hand, if you're asking a question, it would be better to actually ask it as a question, and to explain your terminology, since everybody's NTR terminology seems to be different. That would provide a better chance that someone would answer you.

Thanks L.Lumpy. She looks one of the teachers/target. I don't remember the guy. They must be a bit hot with such amount of clothes ( including Becky)
Yes, that's "Mrs. Vandermeer." Cheerleading coach. Parker got Becky's dress size from her, and also offered her as one of the options to the cops. The guy is completely new - we haven't seen him before. And, yes, they look rather out of place at the shore or wherever this is. (Nor would I mind seeing Becky in a bikini as opposed to these one-pieces she seems to favor... or even less... LOL)

Maybe the new guy is "Mr. Vandermeer". They seem conservative as a couple. Bill and Paul will already broaden their horizons, I hope with Mrs. Vandermeer in other places too.:sneaky:

As I said before, it'd have been easier if you'd defined your terms.

Actually, to some extent I would argue "neither." But it all depends on your definition.

From :

A term used for a story theme that focuses on a particular type of cheating/ in a relationship in an adult-oriented real-life video, manga, or anime. The person that cheats is initially forced against their will (either physically, by being blackmailed, or by the influence of an ingested or injected mind-altering substance) by the (s)/perpetrator(s) to participate in a sexual encounter but then is mind-bended to enjoy and/or accept the experience. Also, the cheater often is not fond of the instigator(s) before the encounter and may state that they love their significant other at any time in the story, but ends up deciding to continue the affair with the instigator(s) afterwards. The victim (the person being cheating on) is usually unaware of the by the cheater, and the instigator(s) if the victim knows him, her, or them. The story often hints that the victim may never know/find out about the continued affair. This theme is intended for and will end up some readers, but others will find it arousing.
The Melissa arc in this story meets certain aspects of this definition - forced against her will via blackmail. But there is zero evidence she's been "mind-bended to enjoy and/or accept the experience" or "ends up deciding to continue the affair with the instigator afterwards."

So, if your definition only includes "is blackmailed into cheating on her husband," then yes, but if you expect the extended version, then no.

Note that there were intense arguments early on in this thread as to whether or not this story constituted NTR or "just blackmail." The NTR tag and disclaimer in the OP was added so that the people that detest that would (if they paid attention) stop bitching over it. But, as with many things, "it all depends on your definition."
