More please more

Wow!   Aro didn't have a clue what was really going on around him, did he?    It's fitting that Marcus and Caius ended him.

Is having to soak your tongue in detergent the vampire equivalent to washing a human's mouth out with soap?   LOL    Bella sure came up with a fitting way to shut Edward the hell up.   ;)

Kate didn't put up with her sister's bullshit for long.   I'm super relieved for her and for Garrett that they left the Denali coven.    Is it still a coven if there are only two succubi in it?   Hmmm....   LOL

Jasper corrected Teresa's despicable behavior, but in a loving supportive way.    She may turn out all right yet.   :)

I'm imagining a wedded, mated Zar and Bella having loads of peace, romance, sexy times, time with friends and just a great life.  :)

Thanks for writing and sharing another great story Alexis.     Now enjoy your break from writing.    You definitely deserve it.

Charlie making Billy shop with him is funny.    I loved Charlie being Leah's sounding board.    Her needing to imprint and become pregnant befire anyone else can is pure karma.

Teresa and Jasper coming to explain started off as a good idea.   But she had to throw some insults, pissing off Bella.   Hopefully Peter and Charlotte can be friends with them.

So Alice lost her head and Edward is trying to be helpful and lay low.  Color me surprised.   ;)    

Thanks for writing and sharing. 

Glad Esme is totally free of that twit.  Finally Caius and Marcus put him in his place

Yes feelings of grandeur!

Glad B is going to be more durable now.  Hopefully Jasper can get his HEA. 

I hope the amnesia approach works with Jacob.   Sam was right about too many people butting into things that made his and Jacob's situations worse.

Bella protecting herself in the nick of time was a relief.    Zar killed the fool for his trouble and I'm so glad Bella recorded it.    I wonder if he'll get the honor of killing Aro.   Hmmm....

Marcus and Caius's long plans are going to drive Alice up a wall.   LOL

Maybe Teresa/Carmen and Jasper can fix her all on their own without involving Bella.

Thanks for writing and sharing.  :)

FYI - I didn't get a STARS chapter update notice, just FFN.   I went looking for it.

Yep!  Carlisle is still delusional.   That probably won't ever change.   LOL

Poor Billy is feeling so guilty about what was done to Jake's memories and how he treated Charlie.    I think he misses that friendship.    He is kind of adrift right now.    Having unrequited feelings for Sue just makes him more lonely.

Charlie should call Tiffany Call.   That way he won't accidentally run into Sue.    

Bella and Zar are learning more about each other and relaxing as they should.   ;)     I like the idea of Bella being able to draw.

It's sad that it took Peter to caution Jasper and 'Carmen' about using Bella to help them.    It might damage her and Zar's relationship.    At least they are aware and trying not to overstep now.

Everyone is using Chelsea in Volterra.    At least she is getting future favors out of it.     But Heidi wanting to have sex with Edward?   really?    Ewe.....    LOL      Marcus is definitely playing the long game with Alice to get his revenge on Aro.

Thanks for writing and sharing the great chapter.   :)

Yummy lemony time.  Glad E will be put in his place. 

Glad she and Jasper are getting away. Hope she'll be OK.  Poor Charlie. He made the right decision but sad for him too.  Good that the tribe did what had to be done.  Jake is psycho. 

I'm not sure who is more ...ugh....   Aro, Edward, Carlisle, Alice or Jake?....   decisions decisions......

Edward and Alice being trapped in Italy for a while will give the others a much needed break from them.    Edward doesn't realize yet he has NO allies, not even Alice.    Hopefully he gets brought down several pegs.

Alice, however, will wait to strike at a horrible time probably.   I'm more worried about her.

Carlisle is so delusional that he is almost disconnected from reality.    He is just a loose canon waiting to screw something up.  

I love to see Charlie protecting Bella by blocking Jake's access to her and then shutting his punk ass mouth up and leaving him outside.   Even Billy seemed annoyed with Jake.   I wonder if he is just better at hiding his controlling ways than Jake?    Hmmm....

Bella and Zar's car shopping trip and relationship is going great.   Hopefully they get some more peace with each other.    He even noticed/remembered that "Carmen" seemed like a different person back then.   Will he put it together?    I wonder if Bella will tell him.

Great chapter.    Thanks for writing and sharing.

Wow Edward is even more of an arse that before.  Glad Esme is going to be ok. Ah Kate get a HEA I hope.   Always thought is stupid that Charlie knew nothing really.  Listening to the tribes stories alone would clue him in.

Glad everyone is getting away.  Sadly I don't think this is the last we've heard from Malice or Fuckwit

I'm surprised that Edward actually confirmed Rose and Emmett's theories on Carlisle's behavioir.      He doesn't seem the type to give up blackmail material so easily.    Esme was quiet during this chapter.   I wonder how she'll choose to deal with this new information.   Hmmm....

Kate is very friendly and polite.   But she knows changes are coming to their little group.

I'm assuming it was Jasper talking to 'fake' Carmen in the woods.   He and Bella seem determined to help her.

Edward running away at the sight of Isa and Zar together??    LOL   I guess he wants his temper tantrum to be in private??    ;)    I love their nicknames for each other.   It's very intimate.

And leaving us with a 'fade to black??    Really??  Cruel....   LOL

Thanks for writing and sharing the great chapter.   :)

I giggled at Bella's reaction when catching Eleazar naked.   ;)    At least both of them know they are mates now.   

Edward doesn't have a clue (or care) how fed up everyone is of his whining.      Yay for Esme's plan to drive him and Alice out.   

Where is fake Carmen?    Is she just hanging out in the woods by herself?    Hmmm....    Jasper sure is worried about her...even suggesting that she go to Peter and Charlotte to be protected.

Maybe when Eleazar tells all of Carlisle's secrets to Esme, Edward won't have any blackmail material anymore.    Esme might decide to give Carlisle the boot too.

Looking forward to next week....    Thanks for writing and sharing.   :)

So Eleazar, Jasper and 'fake' Carmen see the new mated couple, but Bella doesn't realize yet.   I bet she sees it pretty quickly though.

Jasper is sure being very, very, very (did I say very?) nice to 'fake' Carmen.   Hmmmm....    Is there possibly a love connection there?    Hmmm....    The spell on her could be preventing Jasper from realizing it maybe.    And Alice is a shrew that Jasper is leaving anyway.   Ugh...

I loved Tanya dissing Edward by spitting at his crotch.   LOL

Emmett is probably right about the fate of Esme's coven if Edward and Alice are allowed to stay.   They should be kicked out at the very least.    Poor Esme.....   She has an unmanageable job now.

Thanks for writing and sharing the great chapter.   :)

They have all clearly chosen sides

Ooh love Edward and Carlisle getting the first of very well deserved desserts.  Glad Esme is taking off the blinders.  Fake Carmen just needs to run fast and far.  Glas Jasper warned her about doing something stupid

this is good

Ooh interesting start. Can't wait to see where you go with it.

Great start!  I'm looking forward to reading more.
