This is really disgusting.  I may just skip to the end.  I'm sure it's a good story but I think I've just encountered my first Twific that made me vomit.  Poor Bella and everyone else who may be a victim of this life.  The one positive feeling I have is lucky to have not experienced this life.  Sorry I have to flounce.  The writing is good though.  I just can't read anymore.  



Author's Response:

O understand completely. If you decide you want to read it later just skip past ch 11. That's the worst of the graphic.

 

I hope you'll try my other work instead. CAM and FtLOMO are not anything like TPW.

Reviewer: Maphie Signed
Date: 12 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 54: Epilogue

I finally finished!  I know I said I'd flounce but I've never done that with a story. I just didn't know how to do it.  I started at the end and made my way back and skipped the gruesome details.  It worked.  I'm glad you gave Bella time to process.  It wouldn't make sense for her to marry Edward before she healed herself.  I think though that a future take with Edward and how he continues to heal as he experiences fatherhood and the challenges of being in a "normal" family might be interesting to explore.  I'm also glad you touched on Esme and the potential to blame her for not doing enough.  You didn't exactly absolve her completely but giving us the perspective that Renee never really "got away" either.  She was enjoying artificial freedom.  They were both imprisoned except one knew she was and the other didn't. Evil Carlisles are always difficult for me because Canon Carlisle's compassion and his search for atonement was so strong and ingrained in the Twi series that it's hard to see that name associated with evil.  It's like when someone uses James or Tanya or Victoria as characters, I can almost hear the dun dun dun in the background.  But all the characters in this story were difficult to process. (I mean, while emotionally I wouldn't want Jasper, Emmett and Edward to be serve jail time because of their part in human traficking, justice still wasn't served.  They got away with it and even ended up benefiting from their crimes.). I can't say I "enjoyed" the story but I do think it's provocative.  I certainly won't forget it. Thanks for sharing and I will check out your other stories.



Author's Response:

Thank you for leaving such a thoughtfilled review! The potential to blame Esme for not doing enough was deliberate. In real life there's always someone people will point to for blame saying they could have done more or why didn't they get out. The the problem with that question is that the answer won't make sense to anyone else. Esme didn't leave because Carlisle would have never let her go and take the boys. She weighed her options and felt it was better to stay and do whatever she could to balance Carlisle's evil. In her mind it was better than to live always looking over her shoulder. That's not saying that's the answer for everyone or even 99.9% of battered women. Everyone makes their decisions for their own reasons. It's not up to us to understand. If a woman can get out and get her kids out SHE SHOULD! This was a fictional character making a fictional decision that is made every day in real life by women all over the world from all walks of life. We are not her judge and jury.

Making Carlisle and Charlie the bad guys was important to making my point "Evil is always easier to believe when it's ugly". No one wants to believe that the so called good guy (teacher, preacher, movie star, neighbor or even close friend or family member) can be just as evil and hurtful as the expected monster (James, Tanya, Victoria or even Aro). Read my story Love of My Obsession you'll see me do this again with someone else (not to this graphic extent I promise).

I'm not sure I'm liking this Bella.  She's really short-fused and irrational.  Edward is not much better but at least his first instinct is not to attack her.  In every instance where he said something out of turn it was directed at someone he didn't think was her.  She is a little mean and at times contrary towards him for no reason.

It must bum you out that people take time to write disparaging remarks about a story that is obviously meant as fictional entertainment.  It's amazing that they continue reading if they don't like it.  Understandably you feel compelled to respond for the benefit of others who may be reading the comments.  Lots of wasted energy and time.  I'm just happy that you and your collaborators keep writing fun stories for us to escape to.  And for me personally, you seem to be writers who are committed to finishing the stories you publish.  Not that I take offense when some don't, that is their prerogative too.  But you know how it is when you get engrossed in a story that never comes to conclusion. So thanks.

I thought that B&E finding out about each other would have been the end but the way this is laid out, there's more stuff here!!  How will Anthony fair?  Emmett needs to get his due and will we have a glimpse of Edward and Bella as a married couple with kids??? More! More!

The whole ring scene was a little confusing for me.  Was she talking to herself?  I was thinking that for most of she was but then the "voice" with the Jack Daniels breath confused me a little bit.

Summary:

Prompt: #46: Pleasure/Pain. E/B. Bella is tiny. Like, 5ft tall on a good day. Edward is at least 6'2. The height difference is a turn on for them both. She loves looking up at her big strong man. He loves protecting his little girl. Problem is, Bella's tiny everywhere. Edward has trouble fitting inside her. Maybe there are a few tears. It hurts so good.

I thought Addie was short for Adonis.  

Summary:

Bella Swan was dreading going back to her ten year high school reunion, over Valentine’s Day Weekend, for Hillsborough High School. Her time in high school in Tampa, Florida was not high on her list of pleasant experiences. She was quiet, unassuming and secretly in love with Edward Cullen. It was that unrequited love that forced her to move away to Seattle, as far from Tampa as possible. He never knew she existed. Or so she thought.

 

Edward was looking forward to his high school reunion because he was anxious to see the one that got away. Bella Swan was the quiet girl who never really interacted with anyone, but Edward saw that she was something special. But as ruler of the school, he had certain expectations to maintain. It was one of his biggest regrets. His life would have been easier if he had followed his heart. Now, he was a divorced father of two. His ex-wife, Tanya, who was his high school girlfriend, left him for a younger man and abandoned her children.

 

 

Will Bella be happy to see Edward or will she stay hidden amongst her classmates? Will Edward finally break the mold that was expected of him and open up his heart to the beautiful and shy Bella Swan? Will he be able to win back the one that got away?

Reviewer: Maphie Signed

Alice is certifiable and I think I'm beginning to see that the DNA tests from the prologue was rigged.  I'm now rooting for shit to happen so that Edward whom, according to the prologue, sided with his family will eat his words and I hope Bella sticks it to him and all of them!  Ugh!  I wouldn't want it to be for good but he needs to work hard to get close to his son which he practically abandoned. In the meantime, even for just a little bit, I'd like to see sweet Bella adored by a man who would love all of her.  Her son included.  So far there's douchy Jake and clueless Edward.  Not much of a choice.  You can probably tell that I'm struggling with how E reacted from the prologue.

Defiance

 

Carlisle Cullen is ruthless Don of the Cullen Crime Family, but his wife Esme doesn't want this life for their son Edward.  Running away and starting a new life and new identity, will they have a happy, safe life or will Carlisle find them?  E&B HEA
