Tom Lake Discussion Questions Novels & Stories

Please give me your opinion. Brenda ~”Both of them is as hot as hell. I think that Tom has a bigger appetite for sex than Joshua. Joshua is soft and a bit withdrawn. He lives only when he has had one too many to drink. Tom lives loud and is not scared of what anyone thinks. He likes taking risks. Joshua needs a super model on his arm while Tom has no problem taking any of our girls to a fancy restaurant or popular club. Both of them are very successful business men. I can’t say either of them use their money and name to get what they want.” Veronica ~”Stop there. What about Tom being a successful business man?”

Sally laughed at me as I stared after Layla. "You are so whipped!" Leo teased as we walked to class. "Like you aren't..." I countered nodding towards Eve who he was waving to. "We all are." Tom added as he caught up with us. He was watching Keri and Hart walk away. "Seriously, what happened to us? We are badass gangsters! How are we so whipped right now?" Leo raged. Tom just shrugged. "I don't care. We are all with some badass people. They are awesome and we're happy. That's all I care about" I said and Tom nodded.

“But I need you to hear something first.” “I don’t want to hear anything.” “Sloane.” “No.” “I’ve been watching you.” My stomach dropped. “Not—” Tommy ran a hand through his hair. The gesture was so similar to Chase’s that my chest physically contracted. “Not like that. I mean your work. Your columns. The branding toolkit. The Eastlake media lab proposal. I’ve been reading everything.” “Why?”

"That's because we're twins, Liv." Olivia's brow furrowed, her mind clearly racing with questions. She tugged at the hem of her unicorn t-shirt, shifting from foot to foot. "But... but where has he been? Why haven't I seen him before? Does he like pizza too? Can he do magic tricks like you?" The rapid-fire questions tumbled out of her mouth, each one a reminder of how much Tom had missed, how much explaining we'd have to do. I ran a hand through my hair, searching for the right words to say.

“That’s fine. Let him bitch and moan. Get me a beer.” TomTom shrugged and grabbed me a bottle, popping off the top and handing it to me. “Think they’ll take any pledges on the deal tomorrow?” I gave him a look. “Nah. And if they did, why do you think we’d take you?” “Because I ain’t a pussy like the others.” I couldn’t help but laugh. “Maybe, maybe not.” I took a long drink of my beer and surveyed the club. It was just another boring Friday night. I had a nice buzz going, and I could feel my blood starting to rise. I needed to fight or to fuck, but there wasn’t anyone nearby worth beating on.

“Come to meet your end?” Mike stepped forward, his stance defiant. “This ends today, Tom. We won’t let you destroy any more lives.” Tom laughed, a harsh sound that sent chills down Lola’s spine. “You think you can stop me? I’ve defeated stronger packs than yours.” Mike didn’t reply, but his gaze sharpened, signaling the warriors to spread out. Tom’s vampires lurked in the shadows, waiting for his command. “Lola, stay back,” Jessica whispered urgently, gripping her arm. “Tom’s stronger than any of us.”

The concrete floor felt cold beneath his feet, and he could hear the faint drip of water somewhere in the darkness beyond his cloth-covered vision. Tommy leaned closer to Liam, so close that the man's chin was almost resting on his shoulder. The warmth of his breath penetrated through the fabric covering Liam's head, carrying with it the smell of coffee and something else - something sharp and medicinal that made Liam's stomach turn. When Tommy spoke, his voice was barely above a whisper, but every word was crystal clear and filled with malicious satisfaction. "You are going to say on camera that you made a big mistake," Tommy said, his lips so close to Liam's ear that the words seemed to vi

he said. The dining room fell silent. Really? Mum took a sip of water, shook her head, and gave me a quick glance. “She needs to lose calories and a little weight, dear. I think being stressed out would be perfect.” “I love her the way she is,” Liam countered immediately. Mum looked away, her face heating slightly before she nodded. Dad cleared his throat. “So what is it you say you do?” Perfect way to change the topic. I drifted a little, listening distantly as Liam answered. My eyes shifted to Tom. He was staring — a little too obviously. A little too creepily.

He said, “Our fight is against the Vampires. They’re the ones that pose a threat to our lives, for they are powerful. Humans are harmless, they can’t do anything to us. Hence, it’s easier to keep them in the dark than fight them. Whereas with the Vampires, it’s important to establish boundaries. It’s a struggle for dominance.” Emma gave a slow nod as things started to make sense in her brain, and right then, Tom got up. “Alright, I better get going then. Anthony and Maria don’t like tardiness.” So that’s what they were called, she thought to herself. “Is Jamie going to be there?” He shrugged, “I’m not sure, he didn’t mention it.” He said, “Why do you ask?” “I need to talk to him about someth

"If she's not hiding, then she's most likely tackling the problem head-on." "Are you suggesting she's actually going to confront Orlando?" Tom questioned, his voice carrying a hint of concern. "Isn't Orlando too formidable for her? I mean, is that her only challenge? Is Valentine still causing trouble? Or is he out of the picture?" I chose to disregard Tom's queries, as delving into VH14 would require extensive discussion that I simply didn't have the energy for. I sensed that Matteo, however, understood the underlying message. "So, we're going back home, right?" Matteo inquired. "I noticed you didn't get any sleep last night. Perhaps you can catch up on some rest."
