Things like that take their time. And yes, Edward is an ass, but a very sexy one ;)

I am so sorry!!!  I have been where you are with another story that I REALLY shouldn't have read before having to leave for work one morning.  By the time I got home I nearly attacked my hubby.  But I am glad that you loved it! ;)

Thanks for the review!

Nickey

Thx! You are officially my first review...ever!  I'll do my best to get them out quickly!  :)

Thank you so much for the words of encouragement!

I'm so thankful for the positive reviews!

I'm such a proud mo-fo (I am a Leo after all) ;), that I tend to struggle with critisism...even constructive ones - haha!

I promise not to keep you guys waiting long.  I've been thinking that I could have the next chapters beta'd as I go along, and just have the first 17 beta'd when the story is done...  I've seen a couple other authors do that, so why the hell not?

I was just worried that the grammar is really bad and everyone has been just too nice to tell me...  But, I've come to understand from the rather passionate revies I've been receiving after my post, that the problem is really not THAT big and that it takes nothing away from the story.

So...  I'll just carry on as I've been doing and see how it goes!

Thanks again!

:)

Thank you, I hope you had a great New Year. 

Jasper is amazing. To me. Edward... yikes, he really does mean well. The dumbass.  And Isabella... I just love her. But I don't know if she'll do what anyone wants her to do. I guess we'll see. :)

I'm glad you are enjoying it.  I'm having fun writing it :)

Thank you for the review, paola2208!!

Thanks for reading and reviewing His Cimmerian View.  There have been a few questions regarding Bella’s age.  Bella was 13 when she was left to care for her half sibling twins.  She was left to care for them by her step mom after her father’s death.  She obtained employment with the help of Aro who owns the building she lives in with her half siblings.  Her employment record is based on her fake ID that Sue her step-mom left her with.  More about Isabella’s back story will come out in the future chapters.  Edward is quite the monster in the next chapter, but he will see the error of his way.  Thanks for all the story love we are getting, and being a part of that.  Also sometime next week this story is being featured on  THE LEMONADE STAND, we hope that you will go and vote for us.  Thank you, Kasi (&Nikky)


Chapter 5 teaser, subject to change during beta process.

I feel myself wake with a jolt, and I sit straight up.  No longer gasping, but still struggling to calm down.  My breathing is hard and have cold sweat covering my whole body, fuck that was some dream.  I get up and walk into my bathroom; I turn on the water in the shower.  I let it warm a little before stepping into take a shower.  I close my eyes as look up letting the hot water hit my face.  I take some calming breaths trying to shake off this fucking dream.

Leaning my left arm against the wall to support myself, I tip my head down.  With my eyes closed I feel the hot soothing water cascade down my back.  Fuck this not working!  I still feel the effects the dream has had in the pit of my stomach.  I feel my heart starting to race; I open my eye look at seeing my hand shaking.  Knowing that the shower is not helping, I step out and look for the pills Dr. Hall gave me.  I take two of them and wash them down with some orange juice.  After sitting in a towel in my living room for an hour, with the medicine in my system I am now calm.  I go to my bedroom and get dressed, and head off to the college.

I head to Marcus’s office first to get the low down on what happened during my week absence.  After finding that I did not miss much, I set my class room up for my first class.

The day passes by in a blur, I look at my watch knowing that Bel. . . shit, no, Isabella will be coming in soon.  With that thought I pack up my things and leave my room.  As I walk out the main entrance, I see her coming toward the door.  From the corner of my eye I see her smile, as she steps aside to let me out.  I don’t return her smile, or look at her.  I walk out letting the door close behind me, and continue to walk away from her.

HI, we are sending out this reply to everyone, and answering any questions above and beyond what this does not cover along with it.  First in the story right now Bella is 18 years old and will be turning 19 in September.  The twins are just turned 7.  Bella’s mother died when she was very young.  Charlie, Bella’s father is dead, and Sue, Bella’s step mom is the one who left Bella with the twins when Bella was age 13.  We don’t want to give away anything else about Bella at this time, it would ruin parts of the upcoming storyline if you learned it too fast.   As for Edward, he is our dark and troubled man with a horrid view on all women.  He and his story and back ground are coming out, over a few chapters, there is a lot to learn.  I have to tell you that while working on chapter 5 of this story I myself was so mad at Edward, I wanted to rip off his balls and feed them to him.  Ultimately Both of us are HAPPY EVER AFTER KIND OF WRITERS.  We are both extremely proud of this story and the reviews, readers, and following it is getting.  We have had a few people ask if we minded if they pimped us out and the answer is of course, please do.  It is an honor to have other authors think our story is worthy of reading, reviewing, and recommending too.  Thank you again for reading and reviewing His Cimmerian View.   If our Beta's get the chapters back to us faster, we can post faster.  For now we are claiming to post every other week on thursday, howe3ver so far it has been every Thursday.  Nikky jsut finished up on her part of chapter 10 and I am currently working on chapter 7 myself.  The Betas are working on chapter 4.  Thanks you again and again for the story love.

Kasi (&Nikky)

Here is the teaser for chapter 4, of course it is subject to change during the BETA process.

Today is Friday; I know that I have about twenty minutes or so before Isabella comes out.  I head over to the café that is still open to get a coffee, it’s thirsty work stalking someone.  After getting flirted with by the waitress, I walk back to my car with my cardboard cup of coffee.  I see that the security guard is locking up.  Checking my watch, I see that Isabella has about five more minutes before she will be done for the night.  I run over to him, worried that he is accidently locking her into the building.

“I think someone is still in there,” I tell him as I approach him. 

He looks at me strangely.  “Hey professor Masen, are you feeling better?”  The guard asks as he continues to lock the doors.

“I am feeling much better, but I really think that one of the cleaning girls is still in there.  Did you check, I never saw her leave?”

“I have checked all of the rooms, and corridors.  There is nobody in the building Professor.  The last cleaner has just left, and she always leaves last.”

I close my eyes, and run my fingers through my hair.  “Okay, do you mean the small girl with really long brown hair?”

He nods his head and points off the direction she always walks, nodding his head as he walks away.  I’m sure he thinks I have lost my mind.

I move quickly over to my car, and start to drive down the road that she walks.  I come up to the park she cuts through, and don’t see her anywhere.  I park and get out of the car, slamming my door shut as I head down the trail she takes.  I hope I can catch up with her.  I have really lost it, fuck I don’t know what is going on with me right now.  This whole stalking thing is really not been good for me, fuck in a strange way I will miss this when I go back to work on Monday.

Hello our faithful readers and reviewers!  We were expecting a bit of a lashing from some of you, and we have gotten a few but nothing like I expected.  Please let me remind you all now first and foremost that we are both happy ever after kind of gals.  Little refresher is needed about ages, and a few other things, since there were a few questions.  Edward is 28 and will soon be turning 29.  Bella just turned 11 when the twins were born, Sue left when Bella was 13, and Bella has been working for the university for over 5 years.  Bella just turned 19 in chapter 8.  Edward is 9 and 1/2 years older than Bella.  Before Sue left, she obtained a fake ID for Bella that said Bella was 18.  Therefore everyone surrounding the apartment building assumed she was of legal age.  Sue needed everyone to think Bella was 18, and she was sure to scare tactic that into Bella.  All these years, Bella has continued to maintain the age Sue said she had to say she was, in fear of not being able to stay with the twins.  Now for Bree Tanner and James...Bree Tanner was the female student from Edward’s Summer school course he taught.  In the summer for the past several years, Edward has been helping his good friend Marcus by teaching the kids who struggle to pass, or are so far behind they may not graduate high school.  Bree Tanner was the hoodie wearing shy and quiet girl from chapters 1 and 2.  Bree lives in Forks and attends high school at Forks High.  James Hunter is a Math teacher and the truancy officer for the Forks school district.  We don’t want to give too much away, but if you think back to the earlier chapters, when Edward had to take a break from his panic attacks, he was clear to tell Marcus his concerns about Bree being abused.  Bella is naive about many things, but she has grown a lot in the past few chapters.  We want to be clear that Bella feels as if she lied to Edward, she started trusting him a long time ago and when she started trusting him she feels she should have told him then.  Edward doesn’t feel betrayed by the lie, but he is more of in shock by the lie.  When he thought he was almost 5 years older than Bella he was concerned with the age difference, mainly because of how innocent she is.  Now that that almost five is almost ten, he is confused.  The next chapter will have you cheering Edward on, and hating his guts too.  We don’t want to give too much away, but I will say this, we are both excited at the prospect of the reviews after the next chapter posts.  Thanks as always for reading and reviewing this story, you all have no idea how much your words mean to us.  Thank you, Kasi (& Nikky)

Teaser for Chapter 18: Confessions  (As always subject to changes in the Beta process.)

Leaving Bella’s place, I get in my car and drive.  I don’t even slow down when the speedometer hits one-hundred-thirty miles per hour; I just keep driving.  I am racing to get away from the fear and the rage that is inside of me. I still feel so angry; how the fuck did I not see that she was only nineteen?!  I mean, she looks so young; I am so fucking pissed at myself.  She is still a baby, and the fact that she is only nineteen, doesn’t keep me from wanting her.  I want her, and I need to be with her.  I want her in every way, which is so fucked up. I shouldn’t want to be with a nineteen year old girl.

She was thirteen when Sue left her to look after Seth and Leah.  She was so fucking young, and she ended up in Aro’s club at thirteen!  Fuck, if he would have said yes to her…if she was in the pictures I had to choose from…I would have picked her…I know I would have… fuck! I could have really hurt her.  I am really fucking sick! Thank God he said no! Fuck, the dip shit pimp that said yes...shit! I’m sure she would…fuck I don’t even want to finish that thought.

“FUCK!” I scream out and I do an illegal U-turn at eighty miles per hour.  I decide I need to see Aro. If I find out that fucker knew her real age, I am going to add that motherfucker to my shit list.  I am going to hurt him so fucking much, and anyone who tries to stop me, too.

I'm so glad you loved it!  Thank you :)  Glad to hear that!

Thank you! :)
