I just read all five parts. I absolutely love the premise of the story. No easy fixes here. You give Clark a horrible dilemma, and he sets aside his normally strict respect for the law to do what's best for the woman he loves. Of course, Lois has always managed to get him to bend the rules a bit, even early in their relationship.
I'm also enjoying how you have shown Lois' true personality emerging. Of course, her stubborn streak and suspicious nature are working against her, as she's still working from the premise that she loves Max. It will be interesting to see how her little plot to fool Clark will work out.
Looking forward to more!
