glad you liked it!  thanks so much for reading and reviewing!! ;)

Hey Kaybaby~  I am glad to have you on board reading my story.  Yes I had to end it there, because the chapter was already over 8000 word count before it went to the BETA.  I promise to update as soon as I can.  I am really glad that you are enjoying the story though.  Thank you for reading and reviewing my story.  The reviews truly do mean a lot to me.  Things with ‘A Sub Search,’ are coming to a close.  I would rather end this story, than drag it out and make it bad.  I know the SEX SCENES, and LEMONS are hot, but I wanted this story, to also having a meaningful message.  During the research parts of writing this story, I have found a truly deep appreciation for the BDSM lifestyle.  Not that I could ever practice in the lifestyle, I just personally can see why people choose to.  There are so many aspects of this lifestyle that most people, me included did not before realize.  The amount of trust, loyalty, care, and compassion that go into the actions between and Dom/Domme and their sub is one of the most solid things I have ever tried to explain.  I am still not sure that I have done a great job showing the side of a BDSM relationship, I wanted to show, but I am in no way ashamed of the way that I portrayed it either.  Things can happen, but the truth is most participants in the lifestyle are not romantically linked. That is one of the biggest reason’s I wanted Bella and Edward to have the drama of trying to have it all.  I know many of you hated Bella, and for a while…I did too.  I struggled trying to write parts of this story, for lack of personal knowledge and because I personally felt animosity toward Bella at points in the story.  There will be one more regular chapter, and then there will be a epilogue.  Thank you for remaining a loyal reader, and again thank you so MUCH for your reviews of my story.  The preview of the next chapter is of course subject to changes, during the BETA process.  My tense usage stinks, so it always has to be fixed.  Here is the teaser you were promised, and I hope that you enjoy the closure I am giving some of the characters in the coming chapter.

XOXO, Kasi~

Chapter 17 pre-view.

I have been comfortable throughout the day, but I have been in Edward’s arms, most of the time.  After arriving at the hospital, Edward was immediately through the door.  So many people have come to the hospital today.  Esme, and Carlisle, both were here.  Edward begged me to allow his father to look over my medical chart, I of course agreed.  Carlisle, having privileges at Saint Lukes, demanded that I have a full CT scan.  He told me it was to ease his own piece of mind, as well as Edward’s.  Carlisle even checked and rechecked where the stiches were; to be sure they were up to par.  Edward has all, but refused to leave my side.  He only did, when I asked him to once, and when they refused to allow him in the room during the CT scan.  Of course the first time he was okay, because I was going to be with Esme.  The second time he allowed it, because I would be under Carlisle’s supervision. 

Esme surprised me the most.  She has always been so easy going and nice.  Today I saw what most people consider the momma bear factor, or I have heard the term wolverine as well.  Esme was bossing around the staff, like she was in charge.  She demanded that one of the nurses be removed from my care, because she was clearly inept, and to busy trying to get Edward’s attention.  It was almost amusing to watch and hear her.  I still can feel the warmth that passed through me, when I heard Esme tell the nurse.  ‘You clearly are more interested in trying to flirt with my son, than take care of my daughter.  Take your trampy ass out of this room.  I want your supervisor, now!’  Needless to say, that nurse never came back into my room.  I have never felt so loved in all my adult life.
