Chapter 1 Summary

Content Warning: Boyfriend Material contains instances of explicit and implicit anti-gay bias. It also contains profanity and references child abandonment and emotional abuse.

Luc O’Donnell arrives late to an Alice in Wonderland themed party, delayed by not knowing what to wear. While searching for his friends, he meets and flirts with a man named Cam who recognizes him as rock star Jon Fleming’s son. Luc reveals his disdain for his father, who abandoned him when he was a toddler. Cam and Luc make out in the corner of the club until Luc learns that Cam is a writer. Luc becomes upset because people have used him for information in the past. Cam introduces a game where he kisses Luc for every question answered, which makes Luc worry that he is collecting information for an article. When Luc insinuates as much, Cam leaves, offended. Luc decides to go home but trips on his way out of the bar and is photographed.

Chapter 2 Summary

Luc wakes up to a notification on his phone warning him that an article has been published about him. It shows a picture of him having fallen outside the club wearing a set of bunny ears, which he admits is an improvement over his past behavior and the articles published about him then.
