Woah - this is the freakiest story - what is that whack job doing to Elizabeth?  SO glad E is growing a brain! You ladies have demented *snickers* brains to write this stuff...but then again what about the whacko's - myself - that read it as soon as you slap a chapter out!

GUILTY pleasure - not sure that's the right word - can't get enough!

Interesting start...hard to believe E could be that "mature" in looking towards the future and also not so possessive he wants someone else to "break" B in...

Excited to see the update but too short - pind and needles over what C is going to do!!!! Pls update soon!

Great chapter - I wasn't sure if you were going to pull it off but you did! PHEW! I was so worried the way it started - beautiful (well, still incredibly f-ed up but you know what know I mean).

Again, I am happy to donate the shovel to kill and bury Daddy C!!!!

I am so glad you're back!!!! I waited until I had time to re-read the entire story and am so glad I did...please don't make us wait 4 months until the next update!

Great chapter althought I would have rather seen so P action opposed to Ch.

Thanks for the update!

AHHHH - thanks for the update and a bit of closure...I so love your Major!

I'm wanting the girls to have a wienie roast :P

Good, emotional chapter!

I am so glad you're updating quickly - I'm hooked - anxious to know what happened with the girls from prior chapter....

OK - won't hate the writer if the writer updates quickly :)

You are spoiling us with three chapters in one day!!!! Great chapter!

Many thanks for the long chapter (hate when I get an update and it's less than 1,500 words - only a teaser).  Anyway, great chapter, my face is flushed and I am having heart palpitations (hello, love on the H2O).

And, I hope B puts on her big girl panties and kicks R's smartass! I am thoroughly enjoying the story...curious to see how you wrangle RL into the mix!  Keep it up (um...clears throat...the writing that is)!

Hiya - left a review on FF and then thought on it more - I know we are all high-fiving B for putting on her big girl panties and standing up for herself but I especially like that she also let Ang have it - Ang really did screw her over and "old" B would have forgiven her in a heartbeat. I liked hat she called her ass out!

It gives me good feelings re the future - as we all know - don't mess with my kids and I have a feeling E and B are going to be major Papa and Mama Bears!  Can't wait - and did I mention how much I love the "possums"????

Best ~ A

Only the anal retentive accountant would go to the translator...then you give it to me in English :)
  Interesting to see this chapter through B's eyes - although I did like when Alice got her "peek" last chapter so she blocked E via thoughts of Jas naked - HELLO! Share with the group please...
  And Mike and Jess/Lauren and Tyler - give me an "ewwwww" - yeah don't want Ho2 to kill anyone but Mike/Tyler - Irina does have questionable taste (if any).  And is a man's internal monologue really that bad? Scarily, I think many are - again "ewwww".
  OK - nice look into our resident nightmare - Aro - he and Jane are a match made in hell...cannot wait until B kicks his ass!
  AND, what is the J in Bella's note to Charlie??? Am I seeing some foreshadowing here...his love for B and also Renee...what lies in his future????
  And I thought M would head to Forks...will he be the inside man?  How will he stop Aro from reading him????
  Good stuff...missed you! Hugs and Kisses and a Happy New Year!!!!

Author's Response:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Your so entertaining hehehehehe.... at least you knew what she said and didn't have to wait for this ch like some of my other readers hehehehe, LMAO I so agree with you on the naked Jaz ass but I like to keep that part of him all to myself call me selfish I don't care hahahahaha... OMG the scene in the ladies room where Bella is cracking up and doubled over clutching her stomack in laughter is me right now, your Ho2 cooments are killing me that's just gold... I have just looked at the ch as it's posted and HA oops the J was a smiley face but for some reason when it uploaded it is now a J so ignore that bit... You don't miss a thing do you, I have a few reader who want Charlie and Renee to get back together but I don't know if that will ever be a possibility so I was just playing with Charlie a little to test the waters on where he stands with Renee at the moment, we will all have to wait and see where their future lies... HAHAHAHAHA I knew I would stir the pot with the cliffie hehehehehe, Where is Marcus headed? Back to the Castle or Forks..... my lips are sealed heheheheheh

A lot of meat to this meeting but I again regress to the peanut gallery – I loved the beginning ~ “When she got to one a huge grin spread across my face as I felt the tidal wave of lust hit me, My Rosie and I both grabbed hold of each other and as we ran to our room….”  Those two are insatiable!  I have read other stories with B/J pairings and the empathic circle of lust but your descriptions of how it affects others is priceless…not to mention our favorite ‘ho – she is just all sorts of nasty – again “rubbing a few out in the woods”  EWWW!

One thing I am glad you mentioned in the BPOV at the beginning – where she was concerned Edward would be upset at her manipulation – I did think a few times over the chapters she was a bit manipulative and am glad she is aware of it and the consequences!

I loved B’s challenge to said ‘ho – will B’s connection be enough or will she shield E from Tanya’s lures?  Also, as stated in last review, I read the first 53 chapters in one go so remind me – does B have to touch someone to “take” their gift?  I think I remember she has to touch them in order to take it – is that why she wouldn’t touch T or is it b/c she didn’t want to view her past (again, ewww).  I cannot imagine B being a succubus but as she can control her gifts I guess she could handle it.

One of my favorite things in this story is the eyes – how closely linked E/B are that she can feel his thirst and is so directly connected it affects her eyes as it does his. Also, the healing of Jasper and Rose through Bella – she truly is the gift that keeps on giving.

Oh, and you mentioned begging and pleading works to get chapters out faster…please, please give us more!!!! Hands and knees, on my hands and knees!

Nothing like starting your day at 7 am with a little Wombat love!  Great update but putting me in T's nasty head is like being in Aro's - talk about a match made in Heaven - it is those two skanks - the rapist and the 'ho!  HOWEVER, I will grant it was good to get a peek with the Rose talk - am curious about the dreaming - how could she be in the woods "meditating" (is that what they're calling it these days), blocking her thoughts from E and talking to Esme? Confused Blondie here :)
 
You really pulled out the stops with the E/B interaction - FANTASTIC! 1 - didn't know E had it in him to be a bit naughty while she slept - talk about your Good Morning 2 - I know readers are usually like Nike chanting "JUST DO IT" but I was scared to scroll down b/c I didn't want them to - I am so proud that B pulled back and realized what was happening and stopped E from doing something he would most likely regret 3 - almost as good as Emm/Jas reactions was E getting B all hot and bothered and his declaration in the shower - nice to know your E has some balls (and I bet they're pretty) - like her told B “You do like me a little dirty don’t you” - Hells to the YEAH!
 
And you know I could not leave without some inane comment re my boys, my peanut gallery, they remind me so much of Bert & Ernie from Sesame Street - favorite part of nasty-assed TPOV ~ "...instead I stayed at the house, because after seeing the expressions on Jasper and Emmett’s faces I was curious as to what was going to happen...Within minutes of them disappearing to his room I felt Jasper’s gift, and I couldn’t control my quiet whimper, Emmett and Jasper both smiled with glee before grabbing their mates and leaving me. " They are couple of horndogs!
 
Merci Beaucoup for the super quick update - it seriously was a nice wake-up call!  Have a great day and get clacking on that keyboard - PLLLEEEEAAASSSSE!

sQuEaL!!!!! OMG you sound totally like me, my hubby thinks I'm nuts when I roll out of bed and log straight on hehehehehe he will never get it.... LMAO Sorry if I confused you, (no I'm not really) Tania was in the woods during her POV and for all those hours while E watched B she slept soundly, EPOV was after T returned to the house. (don't worry my blondiness may not have written that to clearly) hehehehe.... But I'm always happy to clarify.... SOOOOOOOOO jumping up and down right now, glad I could get you all worked up with the B & E stuff HELL he could wake me up like that anyday of the week (shame he is not real) OMG you have no idea how good you have made me feel knowing you were freaking and scared to read further hehehehehe, that's just ace!!!!! (sigh) the visuals in my head of E dripping wet standing over her staring down with eyes ablaze with desire while he drove her crazy did all sorts of things to me.... I'm totally fuckin nuts to be in love with an imaginary vampire heheehehehehe..... HAHAHAHA Bert & Ernie thats gold, hehehehehe. Just you wait to you get JPOV in a few chapts, he is such a naughty boy hehehehehe.

That was a long time between updates woman!  Especially after leaving us on that cliff! I think this paragraph speaks volumes in foreshadowing:
 
I heard his mind and I finally understood what it meant to be gifted, as my anger increased I recognized what my future held if I just accepted my power, and I now knew how I would use them. As I felt the atmosphere change around me I grabbed hold of his hand, and I focused on his mind with everything I had. If I had indeed just picked up yet another gift, I needed to make sure I knew how to control it, because this one sounded deadly.
 
Now, kudos to the Wombat - you have successfully turned the character of the 'ho - they're vampires, never changing but as a writer you have successfully turned your readers perspective to one of sympathy and understanding with regards to Tania! Well done, I would have said not possible a few chapters ago!
 
Also, I hurt for B ~ it's one thing to know your Mother was raped but to have to "witness" it is quite another - I cannot imagine having to watch my parent's having sex and even worse to see my Mother raped - it's awful! I am torn b/c in one sense I wanted to know what the fuck that asshole Aro was a thinking in biting her b/c we know he doesn't do anything rashly - hmmm - he has to know Alice is seeing this - is it a trap to lure them in (or an attempt) - such a manipulative prick! On the other hand just knowing he was raping an innocent again is gut-wrenching!
 
As always, you have my praise for a great update!

hehehehehe, I know I took ages to post this chap cause I just knew you would all shoot me with the cliffy, so I made sure I had almos finished the next ch before posting hehehhe. I have just posted the next ch so go read, OMG yay I made you feel sorry for the ho hahahahaha yes she id still a ho but she can't help it, I;m stoked that I could change your perception, (sigh) yes your correct Aro doesn't do anything without thinking first, he has big plans.... thanks a bunch for your long review I am grinning from ear to ear...

SOOOOOO, very important question...how much do you charge to arrange a bath with Edward b/c I would so willingly pay an arm and a leg - I would consider selling my husband's kidney (hey, he has a spare). VERY NICE!   I know there has to be something significant to that horse - how obscure - can't for the life of me think what it could be! '...anyway where was I, oh ok so I was talking to the horse' - are we going to call him Mr. Ed?   Like the way Bella is coming into her own!


Author's Response:

hehehehehe, Sorry hun, Edward is tied up in my playroom so he is not available for housecalls hehehehehe but the fact that you are offering your husbands organs is highly amusing so because you made me laugh I will entertain the idea of maybe sharing him hehehehehe, Mr.Ed I love it, hehehehehe. the horse will be a calming influence for Bella and it will be very sugnificant if she becomes a vampire, but I won't spoil what happens just yet hehehehehe. MWAH thanks a bunch for your review you always bring a smile to my face.

Hey there! I love that, of course, E, Ali and Carlisle all defend B but I absolutely LOVE the Major kicking Irina's skanky ass! Nicely done! Good thing E had already made the hole with T!
 
So nice to see E/R bonding - you just don't see that often and it's refreshing - know Em loves it!
 
I loved Jas and B "talking" but then to hear Jas' plea - beautiful - send the Major over to tell me that please!
 
And aren't you and B clever girls - learning from the others as they block their minds - never seen that used before - again, clever....clever!
 
Great interaction with Daddy C ~ it did make me wonder - what will her "change" be like - there is nothing normal about B so I can only assume you have something unique planned for that as well.
 
Now you being an Aussie you don't have the excuse of celebrating Thanksgiving so I'll go back to begging and pleading for an update...also I will burn for three days if I get to "keep Edward forever"...I liked the way you phrased that!
 

Author's Response:

YAY!!! Thanks my lovely lady, you have made my day, even though I rushed this ch I reaaly enjoyed writing it, I whis I could take credit for the Bella learning thing via their blocking but no can do, I'm pretty sure I got that idea from one of  stressedout reviews, you would be amazed by the amount of ideas I get from reading the reviews I get, sometimes it may just be a push in the right direction but a lot of the time you guys inspire me sooooo much its like I can do anything. MWAH!!!! Yes I have something huge up my sleeve for her change but my lips are sealed, You're all going to freak hehehehehe!!!! I swear I'm typing my little heart out and I will have another ch posted within the next day or two tops, I love getting your reviews MWAH!!!!!

I am constantly amazed at the depth of your writing.  Bella’s innate goodness shines in everything she does ~ such as reading Eleazer with so much discretion.

Tough going with Renee – she can’t catch a break – nice Felix – little rape…little murder…such a sweetheart!

And when E/B left to lighten the mood I kept thinking Carlisle better get away from Eleazer or they’re going to be humping each other! I love this line ‘I look to Carlisle questioningly and see his haunted features have been replaced by a coy grin. “Now would be a great time to go find Carmen and remove some of your tension… Trust me when I say you will never forgive yourself if you miss this opportunity.”

My oh my…what got into Edward – taking tips from Em and Jas???? It was an emotional ride with that chapter but loved the ending with all the POVs – nice to end with a laugh!

I SOOOOO cannot believe you did that - you're as bad as Irina! Make us wait and I was very patient and then to leave us like that! HUMPH!

Now, remind me, are all three sisters succubus or just T? AND PLEASE, PLEASE don't make us wait to long for the next update!

Wow - JustGinger (People Like Us) was pimpin' you out and from the prologue I am in!  It's refreshing to see a cleanly written, smokin' hot piece of work! Onto the next chapter!

OK - so in love with this story! Of course we all want to get back to the Prologue BUT it's going to be all that much sweeter when you get there.  The history is wonderful! I love the many sides of B - snarky and strong but still so naive and innocent!  And E ~ sigh ~ we all concur we love 50 Shades but clearly other than sharing a love of domination, Escala and Mrs. C the similarities end there!  You just want to wrap both of them up in your arms!
 
I love your writing style and am very much enjoying this story! Absolutely fantastic!

Author's Response:

SO glad you’re back – I love this story and the “back” story, getting us to the Prologue has me on pins and needles – cannot wait to see those two together!  And only a truly gifted writer could have a married virgin – pulled that one out of the hat!

The unrequited (or so assumed) love between these two is great but I absolutely love, even more than Mojo the wonder dog, is the inner monologues!  Even E – I went back a re-read some things “Down boy... caveman much Cullen... just make it through the scene before you order the wedding invitations...”

Such a great story but I, like B, am always left wanting MORE!  And that fuck-hot banner…ummmmm!!!!

Again, best laid plans – I get to work at 5 am (groan) but see I have an update – oh hell no I am not waiting until I get home – I have been dying for this update to our favorite couple.  Can Domward come over and tickle me senseless?? And his “deviant” is hilarious – I love B’s inner voice and conversations with MoJo and E’s is just as good…well, maybe better! It’s *hard* to tell?!

I don’t know if you’re from the US but if not you probably won’t get this but have you ever seen that commercial with the dog looking for “Beggin’ Stripes”?  The dog is going around the house saying “bacon...bacon..I smell bacon…gotta get the bacon…”.  I felt like that dog this morning when I saw you had updated “hell bent on getting my “bacon”– several of my “favorites” had updated and I was running late for work but when I saw FTLOD had updated I decided I could be a bit late.

So good…oh so good. And those pics of E *swoon*…fantastic update…I thought you would leave us before they “revealed” themselves so thank you for that…but is E leading her where she thinks or will we have some angst while they work things through??? They’ve been fighting themselves for so long…how will they respond now they both have what they want?  Seems they never do the sensible thing!  Again, oh so good!!! And like the dog…I want more…more…more bacon!

Oh - that was gooooood!  Saw the first part but NOT the second - nicely done! Cannot wait for the next chapter!

You girls rock my socks!  I love this story - the photos with Ang were perfect! Actually all the photos *clears throat* especially the banner are incredible! Not as good as the words though! Keep it up!

WOW - where are you going with all this?  Please tell me Esme isn't going to "off" Daddy C?! Oh and New Years is sounding scary - is it Ang or Eric???

So good...keep it up...just like our boy E!

This is like the MAJOR league guilty pleasure...and for only having sex twice before B our boy Eddie sure is a dirty talker - very verbal...but I guess in that family...that community he has been exposed to everything. Man, there are so many things I don't want to see in my lifetime - major one being my brother forcing his wife to go down on him *shivers*!

So, is there a line to stand in to beat the shit out of Daddy C?  What an ass! As a mature mother of 42 (who is addicted to Twilight *snorts*) I hate when my parents or in-laws get in my business b/c they KNOW better than I do about my husband or my children! Again, he is such an ass – hopefully E righted things!

So LEXI - are yours real???
