Bio:
I'm a forty-something-year-old who's been writing fanfiction since before there was an Internet to post it to. It's just taken me a long time to get up the nerve to share.
I majored in History and English Literature, and though I don't write for a living, I work on a daily basis with those who do, and I am fortunate that I get paid to participate in the creative process.
Update June 2, 2012:
Due to the fuckery going on recently over on FFn, I have decided to begin posting/archiving my stories on AO3 as well as here (same username). I am also considering creating a blog to host my stories. Check my profiles on any of the three sites (FFn, TWCS, and AO3) for updates.
15 yr old Bella has a fairly normal life. That was until her mum's new boyfriend came on the scene. Will Bella survive her new life? Dark Themes, Cannon Pairings. GRAPHIC

Bella is 17 and tired of being the 'good girl'. Senior year calls for change. She finds it in the arms of 25 yr old Edward. Consequences for her choices cause a ripple effect that even she could never have been prepared for.

I'm interested in seeing where you take this story... and it's your story to write, so just ignore people who 1) don't like the way you're writing Edward, 2) tell you to write more quickly or longer chapters. Write what you need to in order to tell *your* story, and write when you have the time and inspiration.
Good luck!

However, I feel like there were more typos and punctuation errors than usual in this chapter. It was a bit disruptive in reading it. :)

Good to know that there's more to this than just smut (although I'm not complaining about that in the least ;).
Author's Response:
lol, Thanks. There is a lot of smut in this story but there is a plot too!
A darker Edward learns a new technique from his brothers and starts a very special club, luring his new female classmates in. Will Bella be in or out? Can she handle the competition? Can Edward handle the competition when Bella and her friends are dragged into the dark world of the vampire's who want to collect them?
This story is a bit dark and different from the usual twilight vampire lore, so beware.

Otherwise, very hot. :)

You caught that huh? (gulp). I had originally had written it in third, but wasn't happy with it, so I changed it. Must have missed some. I'll be sure to correct it. Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Date: 15 May 2010 Title: Chapter 17: Morning in the Meadow
Happy sighs...
Date: 30 May 2010 Title: Chapter 19: Drive
Gah! He's just too perfect. Le sigh... :)
Author's Response:
Ha ha!! You remember her "le sigh". She'll have some reasons to do that again soon enough!! But not until after that pesky little Christmas party.
Date: 05 Jun 2010 Title: Chapter 20: The Longest Day
Oh my god, that was... harrowing. Both of them got hit by wrecking balls in one day.
I got so freaking choked up when they went to visit Karen. How amazing of Edward not to figure out what was really going on sooner. I know he's used to her being outspoken, but normally he's so much more aware and attentive of her. And hasn't he figured out yet that a lot of the noise she makes is because part of her is completely shit scared?
Gah, I still have a lump in my throat thinking about Bella. Guess that kinda hit too close to home for me.
Love this story. Guess it's kinda obvious by how attached I am to your characters. :)
Author's Response:
In Edward's defense, he's really not used to people being so excited to see him. So to suddenly have Karen jumping around and talking non-stop to him the way Alice does to Bella, he just got lost in the moment. And yes, he's usually attentive to Bella, but something he's not saying is he was just as nervous as she was for her to meet Karen. I'm purposefully saving some things to go back and do Edward POVs at the end of the story, but this is one where I should have had him explain. Karen was there for all the Mary crap and Karen * never * liked Mary. And Karen being so right about Mary scared Edward b/c he was afraid of what would happen if she didn't like Bella. We can look at it from the outside and know how silly he's being, but for him, he's right in the middle and can't see the forest for the trees.
Date: 05 Jun 2010 Title: Chapter 1: Halloween Hook-Up
Thanks for the response. I think I kinda understood that something like that was going on with him, but I guess I got a bit caught up with Bella's angst because it felt so freaking familiar to me.
And it also helps that he's not *absolutely* perfect. ;) Even though he really is, lol. ;)
I am excited that you're planning on doing EPOVs when you're done. Really looking forward to that. :)
Author's Response:
No problem!! The give and take of reviews is what helps me learn and grow as an author! Yeah, I think I got caught up in Bella's turmoil too. And that suddenly dumped into unfamiliar surroundings is so strong! But yeah, Edward not being absolutely perfect makes him more real. And I agree, he still is even when he screws up. LOL!
Date: 13 Jun 2010 Title: Chapter 21: The Next Contestant
I love Bar Fighting Edward, too--especially when he's really Gentleman Edward. He really is just too perfect. ;)
Date: 19 Jun 2010 Title: Chapter 22: New Start
I loved their argument. It kinda scared me at first, but I'm so glad they had it. ;)
And Emmett is such an idiot, lol. I'm sure you'll eventually get around to letting us know what happened between the two of them, but for now it's really bugging me--I just want to smack the ape upside the head. ;)
Really love this story. Enjoy your time off.
Author's Response:
Thanks!! Yes, Emmett will tell us exactly what his problem with Edward really is, but it's going to take him a while to fess up. For right now, he still believes he's right in holding his grudge.
Date: 03 Jul 2010 Title: Chapter 23: Somewhere I Belong

And I'm sure many of us have been wondering when, where, and what his tattoo would be. Swoon.

Wow. Okay, so we knew that she couldn't have kids, but damn--poor girl to have had to go through all of that at the same time. Geebus.
And once again, he. Is. So. Friggin. Perfect. GAH!
And Charlie's a hoot. ;)
Author's Response:
Yeah. Totally explains her cliff diving, doesn't it? And Yes! Edward managed to be everything she needed in this chapter. So proud of both of them!!
Date: 24 Jul 2010 Title: Chapter 26: That's How You Know
Awww! Hell, I think the fact that she has taken her time to be as sure as she can that she means what she says is testament to how she feels about him.
And Alice! Dammit--what a talkblock! ;) I want to know what the hell Edward was about to say to her!
Author's Response:
Yeah, Alice was not being very considerate to Edward. She still hasn't adapted to there being someone else taking up Bella's time and attention. I foresee a big talk coming between her and her brother.
Date: 31 Jul 2010 Title: Chapter 27: No Turning Back
God, I feel live I've been punched in the gut.
Author's Response:
I'm sorry you feel like that, but happy I wrote it well enough for you to feel at all. I promise next chapter won't be as gut wrenching!
Date: 07 Aug 2010 Title: Chapter 28: Keep Holding On
Just for the record, I thought you were successful with your previous chapter. The reason I felt like I'd taken a punch to the gut was because I could clearly see and feel both sides. If I'd felt like one or the other of them was more in the wrong, I would have been yelling about that instead.
I loved this chapter and how it followed them both from the raw pain through the long road of reconciliation. Anyone else would have just given up, I think. But they're willing to put a lot of effort into making it work because they know they're worth it.
I know they're not through it yet--after all, Bella still has things to say to Edward. We still have unanswered questions about Edward's past. But as sad as it is to see that they've lost that easy comfort with each other, I'm glad to know they're close to getting it back.
Very well written chapter. :)
Author's Response:
Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed it and got so much from it! It was definitely a gut wrencher to write!
Date: 15 Aug 2010 Title: Chapter 29: Need You
Happy sighs. A step or two closer...
I just wish *Emmett* would get his head out his own ass. ;)
Author's Response:
LOL! That's not likely to happen anytime soon since Emmett thinks he's completely in the right.
Date: 21 Aug 2010 Title: Chapter 30: And So It Begins
As you said, Emmett always thinks he's in the right. lol What an ass! ;)
And Edward is so sweet... He's back to being perfect again. Sigh. :)
Author's Response:
LOL for both comments. The twins are unique and alike in so many ways. And they're going to be getting along a lot better from here on out.

Date: 11 Sep 2010 Title: Chapter 33: Moe'Uhane
Utter perfection. That's Edward. ;)
I'm so glad Bella didn't freak out over his dream.
Author's Response:
Bella handled it very well! And yeah, Edward is kind of perfect at times. :)
Date: 19 Sep 2010 Title: Chapter 34: All Shook Up
"Le Sigh complete with a side of holy mother of fuck me sideways."
Ahem. Yeah. What she said.
GOD, HE'S PERFECT. lol
I've totally lost track of how many times I've said that about your Edward, but it's TRUE. ;)
Author's Response:
It's alright! EA and I are saying it a lot too! LOL
Date: 03 Oct 2010 Title: Chapter 36: Don't Worry, Be Happy
Will you be mad if I say I was expecting Emmett to do something like that? ;)
And Edward... more happy, happy sighs.
Author's Response:
No, I will say you know more than me! I had no idea until the chapter before when he went surfing with Bella. LOL Shows what I know and what I get for thinking Em would give them all Hawaii just out of the goodness of his big bear heart. LOL
Date: 11 Oct 2010 Title: Chapter 37: Complications
Happy sighs after a scary interlude.
And to stay true to my usual theme in these reviews... Perfection, thy name is Edward. ;)
Date: 16 Oct 2010 Title: Chapter 38: Adjusting
Best. Boyfriend. Ever. :)
And OH NO for your arm! I'm so sorry! I hope you're not in too much pain, and I hope that your recovery is quick.
Feel better soon! Hugs!
Author's Response:
Thank you all for the well wishes. I am having withdrawals from writing already and EA is already tired of hearing me whine. But we are working on a solution and may have a chapter in a couple of weeks. No promises.

One comment: When Bella is fuming to herself over after talking to Angela's mother, she mentions Angela moving in with Lauren Mallory. Later, when she's telling Edward about it, she says Angela has moved in with Tanya (Tanya gets mentioned twice). You might want to fix that. :)

TEASER FOR CHAPTER 29
“P-pardon?” Bella felt faint. This is bad! This is really, really bad!
Mona looked at her as if she was in awe, “Sit down Bella, you don’t look so well.’’
Bella groped her way to one of the chairs in front of Mona’s desk.
Riley cleared his throat, “Your face says it all. When I went outside to ask the photographers what they were doing here, one of the guys that I have become sort of friendly with informed me that they were not here for me, but for you. It seems that your secret is out.” He raised an eyebrow.
Bella felt her stomach heave. She put a hand over her mouth and ran to the little bathroom adjacent to Mona’s office.
She made it just in time as her stomach was emptied of it’s contents. Bella sat sweating on the floor for a moment with her head leaning against the toilet bowl.
My secret is out? Oh my god! Do they know about what Edward and I are? Have I ruined his career? His life?
Her jumbled thoughts were racing around in her head.
What had she done?
Her phone vibrated as she was rinsing out her mouth. She answered it with a shaking hand.
“y-yes?” she whispered.
“Bella?”
“Edward…” she closed her eyes as she heard his voice. She could feel the tears well up in her eyes and she felt the hot trail down her cheeks.

I was wondering when Jake was going to show up... ;)
Author's Response:
So it was YOU who called him...!
Date: 07 Aug 2010 Title: Chapter 36: Chapter 36
No, not her finest moment. And Edward did give her multiple opportunities to ask about the party. However, since she'd never been to one *as his submissive,* how would she know what to expect of his and others' behavior? I can't say I blame her for feeling threatened, knowing her background. Yes, she knows he loves her; yes, she is his submissive while none of those others are; but to see all those women seemingly throwing themselves at him? Yeah, I don't blame her at all.
Even though she's supposed to trust him. At the end of the day, he's still just a man. Her reaction was natural.
And how soul-destroying to know how badly she's disappointed him.
Yeah, I'd be crying my eyes out, probably wanting to just give up.

In an alternate all human universe, where society reached modern times with the equivalent to an Ancient Roman appearance and level of technology, sexual pleasure is paramount; the Cullens are a breed apart: sexual vegetarians, if you will.
Bella is an "Innocent" and so off limits for deeper sexual gratification, a role she gladly embraces, taking pleasure only in giving to those around her.
That is until she meets Edward. Suddenly her Father's insistence on her remaining an Innocent and Aro's desires to keep her for himself have become an unwelcome burden to her life. How will Bella and Edward survive their desire to be together when it is forbidden?
This story is a thinly disguised excuse for steamy lemons in the vein of a Roman orgy, yet there is also a deeper story about selfless giving and how love might just be worth waiting for...and fighting for.

*WARNING* This story starts out with intense woman/woman imagery, and will depict graphic multi-partner pairings in future chapters. DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY GRAPHIC SEXUAL CONTENT OR IF YOU ARE NOT OF LEGAL AGE TO DO SO!!!

But oh, to wake up with Edward like that... guh.
So glad for the update!
Author's Response:
Thank-you! TA will be pleased to hear you thought so. She wrote the particulars and I just seasoned it with my touch in that section.
I'd rather love to wake that way myself (and I'm no Innocent!)! *MWAH* ;D
Thanks so much for continuing to read!!!
Edward Cullen has survived for years drinking the blood of the dregs of society. He longs for something different, the blood of an innocent. Enter Bella Swan. Will desire for her overrule desire for her blood or will he take both? All EPOV. Starts darker, quickly turns humorous. Language, lemons and some violence.

I laughed so hard I thought I was going to have a heart attack when he called Buffy a racist show. That's some funny shit. LMAO
Author's Response:
:) I don't want to cause you heart attacks but I'm thrilled you liked it. That's actually probably my favorite line of the whole fic so far. Looking at Buffy through Edward's eyes was quite a different experience from my usual fangirling over the show. I'm far more Bella than Edward when it comes to Buffy! Thanks for reviewing!

Haha this could be true. He has to work himself back up to saying it for sure. Inner voice will have goad him some more no doubt :)

This is the story of young Domme Isabella who is looking for a new sub. Her old master Carlisle was the one to introduce her to the BDSM-community of Chicago and he is also helping her find a new sub to train.
On her way to meeting her new sub, she thinks back on her last ten years in the BDSM community and relieves some very hot moments from her life both as a sub and Domme.
At the same time we meet Edward, strong and confident boss of his own firm until the day he discovers a hidden submissive side of himself. We follow him on his journey and maybe one day Domme Isabella and submissive Edward will meet?
Strong content and lots of lemons, be warned!
This is not a BDSM-how-to, so please just read it as the smutty fanfic it is ment to be, thanks! Always wear a condom and take good care of yourself, Edward would!

Hehe, just ignore anybody who tells you to write something you're not ready to. Tell the story *you* need to tell.
Btw, at least twice now I've noticed the use of the word "cleansing" when what you really mean is "clenching" (once in this chapter and once near the end of chapter 9. :)
Anyway, I'm really enjoying this. Looking forward to the next update.
Author's Response:
Thanks!
I just corrected the rather confusing mistakes you pointed out, thanks! It's just something that comes with not having English as your first language, I guess, sorry.
Date: 10 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 1: Initiation
I figured that's what the issue was, but believe me, I'm impressed with your writing skills. And to be doing it so well in a language that isn't your native tongue is just that more amazing. I certainly can't do that... ;)
Author's Response:
Thank you! I just hope it isn't too obvious? I'd hate for my story to come out all childish because it's in English.
Date: 10 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 1: Initiation
No, it's definitely not childish; please don't think that's what I meant.
I've simply noticed the occasional odd turn of phrase, or perhaps the wrong preposition used, like "on" instead of "in," or vice versa--that sort of thing. Not something that would stand out to the average reader as more than just a typo, because that's very easily what it could be. I simply pick up on these things more quickly than some people might because I've had a lot of exposure to non-native English speakers.
Again, I think you write really well, so you should be proud of what you've done here. :)

I'm quite curious to find out what Tanya's going to do to make Edward use his safeword, and I wonder whether, if he knows his "Miss Chocolate" is there watching, he will feel more or less inclined to do it.
Looking forward to your next update. :)
