whew! that last chapter scared me, deep down I knew he would not do it tho.

I am not kidding...this was a perfect blend of drama, terror, and love.  You had me wrapped up in a web of depression at the beginning of this chapter... I love love love this story, and you are a wonderful writer.

Thanks so much.

i'm so glad she could tell edward finally. but i swear if they even touch her i think ill throw up. i can't even stop sobbing. i love your writting ill follow your work to any website!!!!!!!!!1

I feel much better now.  I can't wait for Carlisle to get his.

This poor child..

I was anticipating this--that Edward would pull something like this and not tell Bella beforehand. On one hand I'm relieved, on the other I'm wondering how great a performance they're going to have to put on to make the Trio of Evil think Edward's capable of "training" his wife. That, and whether Edward's brother will kill him first and ask questions later. o_0

Oh thank GOD he didn't actually hit her! I was near to tears with the start of that chapter - you had me SO worried, but oh my God, I'm so relieved. I rate Bella as well for still shouting at him because he was still a dick but from his POV you can see he acted very quickly out of fear so I guess I can see why he did it.

Also, MASSIVE relief that Bella finally told Edward about Carlisle. I've been worrying about that for absolutely ever so now that he finally knows it's such a relief.

As per usual, cannot wait til the next chapter! Especially as we finally get to find out about Esme's garden! I still have massive fear that there's going to be something really sinister buried in there, then again, it's Esme's sanctuary so dead bodies wouldn't really bode well for that vibe huh?

Please can Edward, Jasper and Emmett just triple team Carlisle?! I cannot WAIT for that man to have his retribution. I hope it's hideously painful and I also hope Esme gets her justice too! She has suffered more in this story than any character I think I've ever read!

Finally, just want to express my fears about Bella not having marks etc on her back or what not. Please don't let Carlisle ask to see them?! Or have him break into Bella and Edward's room or something?

Ahhh so much to say!! Can't wait for the update!

Oh thank you thank you, I just couldn't stand it if she thought Edward had reverted back, he needs to keep her safe she needs to know that he can protect her... I think the 3 boys should plan Carlisle's demise and put his rotten body in Esme's garden, actually no why poison her beautiful garden.

They still need to worry about this new threat and Sam and his group, plus it would be nice is these people were all arrested so this stops all together.

I'm so glad Bella finally told Edward about what Carlisle has planned for her.

Great chapter, I'm sending a subliminal message now, kill Carlisle with much pain and suffering :-)

Pitchfork down, confidence in Mic back up!

Phew! That was close. While I agree that Edward really should have told her what was going on 1st I am happy that he was able to come up with a solution that would keep her trust but also keep her safe from Carlisle & co. It really does not surprise me that he did not talk to her 1st either. This whole communication thing is new to him & he was raised to be the head of the family & take care of it himself. Hopefully he can learn from this as well. So glad she told him about Carlisle's threat.  I cannot wait for the next chapter!

i cant wait to read the next chapter!! ive been wondering about esmes garden lol! im so glad she finally told edward about shit for brains carlisle!! update soon!! <3

I don't think I will ever doubt Edward again. I'm so glad he didn't actually beat her, but like Bella I think he should have told her first...although I can understand that it might not have looked real if he told Bella before...

I'm so incredibly glad that Bella finally told Edward about Carlisle. Hopefully they can find a way to keep Bella away from Carlisle, Demetri, and Marcus...and the other girls as well. I'm sure the girls wouldn't be too upset if the guys arranged for Demetri to be beat up by "random strangers" or "mugged" every time he went out...

Bloody hell woman what are you doing to me lol For a second there I was actually scared he was going back to his old ways, I know he loves her and has changed but my god!! Im so glad she finally told him though she needs protecting and I have a feeling Emmett and Jasper are gonna go mad hopefully this will be the straw that broke the camels back so to speak to save all the girls!

Love it x

I CRIED MY EYES OUT!!! I was at work when I read this and I was so upset thinking this will break her and the he did what I prayed he would do... you really had me in a tissie. Thanks for the fast update!

Angel

Phew just back from hiding my pitchfork away.  Girl you had me worried!  I can feel a shitstorm brewing though...;)

Fab job!

GOOSE BUMPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I love a good beginning!!  You did not disappoint!

shes pregnant! yay! he's come a long way. super thrilled! just keep carlisle far, FAR, away!

i am so glad edward did that instead of hitting her again! you are a genius! looking forward to next chapter.

Thank you so much.  I had nightmares after that last chapter.  I kept seeing Carlisle doing horrible things to Bella and ruining their lives even though I knew that you would never let him do that.  I have a sneaking feeling that he isn't through being evil to everyone, and I doubt he's given up on sodomizing Bella.  Is it wrong for me to hope that Emmett, Jasper, and Edward and possibly even the girls find a way to murder him slowly without being punished?  I have such graphic fantasies regarding an appropriate punishment for years and years of being a evil freaking bastard.

Great chapter :)

OK you've calmed me down a little bit but, I'm scared that there are cameras in the basement!!!!!!!

Thanks god Edward was just acting!!!! WHEW!!!!

Still don't understand why I never got notice that you updated because I checked my profile and it should happen.

Looking forward to more!!!!!

Cory

Noooo my pitchfork is out and waiting for Carlisle ass!!!!!!!

at least they are trusting each other and still in love!!!

I love this story, and I am so happy you are posting regularly again.  I guess this was a good move for you.

Can't wait to find out about Esme's garden!

thank you!!!!!!!!!!, God, I was soo scared, thank God Edward thought of a better solution, thank you!!!!

Aww, well, isn't nhe smart?!

And his cousin is soo going to rape her.. i can see it.

<3

I'm so glad he told her instead of hurting her. Also, glad she told him about Carlisle's plans for her. Can't wait to know the secrets of the garden.

YAY for Edward...and thank god he told her what he was doing and why.

Carlise wants her swapped with everyone since he cannot manipulate her by himself. PIG!

Oh, thank God. Thank you so so so so much. I was terrified he was really gonna hurt her for a moment! I'm glad she finally told him about Carlisle but im surprised she told him after he scared her so bad. But then I suppose after realizing what Carlisle did, she would feel she had to...

I cant wait to find out what is in Esme's garden :P Hopefully a secret poison to slip Carlisle, Dimitri and Marcus?

ok ok i'm lowering my pitchfork, but i did have my heart in my mouth at the beginning shouting at edward dont do it just tell her, then massive relief when he did and bella understood i so hope carlisle does not ask to look at her bottom as proof or something equally sick and just accepts the wrists as proof, he needs his brothers to make a plan, how much longer are nasty and nastier  visiting,  i think their only escape will be to kill him off, oh god more please

i just got a feeling that carlisle is gunna kno what just happened

heck yes!! its getting better!!!! for them!!!

it's my favorite fan fiction story ever read, i love it, i honestly don't see 2 solution about carlisle, he need to dead, his death will be freedom for his family.

Lovin it. I was worried that he was actually going to do it. I am glad he didn't. Great story can't wait for the next chapter!

OH thank god he explained things to her.  Please dont let there be a camera or microphone that just taped all that for carlisle. That would really suck.  Hard. 

thanks for the update!

I don't think i have ever had more trouble reading a chapter in my entire life. I was TERRIED Edward would turn back into Carlisle's Edward i actually have been nervous the past few days (i know, pathetic. i'm now worrying about the lives of fictional characters). thank you so much for doing things the way you did, it solved the problem without creating a rift between Edward and Bella. Okay i'm going to stop writing now because the more i write the more i realize how insane i have become. regardless thank you i look forward to the next chapter.

This was good. You had me screaming at the scream like a crazed person before he came out and told her. Hmm... Esme's garden! I am excited now. This chapter was good. A happy-ish ending. Good. I can't wait for your next chapter!

Phew!!! I was so worried that Edward was going to keep her in the dark about his behavior to make it look more believable. I don't think Bella could recover from that if he did that. And Thank God he didn't beat her. But I do worry about Carlisle wanting to check "Edward's work" later. She will only have bruises on her wrists. Maybe locking her in the room will prevent this, although I am sure Carlisle has a key to their room (shudder). I am sure move evil things are to come from Carlisle, Demitri & Marcus. And I am so relieved that Bella FINALLY confided in EDward about his father's plans for her. Really great chapter & looking forward to your next post!

Smart boy our Edward!  Let's just hope there are no cameras down in the basement!  And thank you in advance for finally letting us know the secret of Esme's garden!  I have to tell you, that one has been knawing at me!  So many possibilities...one though keeps haunting me...maybe two.  Amazing chapter emotionally. 

Thank you for writing this so fast! I really needed it. That last chapter scared the living daylights out of me. I'm hoping the secret to Esme's garden is pioson spices touse on Carlisle's food. LOL!!!! Wishful thinking!

I was so scared bu it was genius the way he got away with it!!! :D

I was so scared (for Bella) to read this chapter.  Thank you for not letting Edward go back to the dark side.  I am still hoping he will off Carlise in the near future so that the whole family is safe.  Maybe Esme has something in the garden to help get rid of Carlise.....(one can only hope!) 

Thanks for the update, especially so quickly.  Your story and writing is awesome!!!

Wow. I knew Edward wouldn't go through with it. I hope he can keep her safe. 

oh my goodness thank god.  i'm so happy he told her about everything.  i wouldn't have been able to take all the angst otherwise.  great job. looking forward to more.

<3

HOLY CRAP!  NOOOOOO  WHY CAN"T HE LEAVE??  He's got money...her's!!!

I wonder what one could do to get the authorities on this kind of program. Bella would have a very difficult time getting anyone in Forks to believe her, with what her father being Chief of Police. She'd have to get out of town to have some semblance of safety, and then the police's investigation could prove to be very difficult.

Charlie and James could opt to bail or just feign ignorance. In that case the only hope would be the other wives, and Bella only knows of Alice and Rosalie and who knows if they'll talk. Bella could also sacrifice herself and be allowed to return to Charlie, but with the police observing what they do to her in any way they can.

This is assuming she escapes and manages to get that far, which in this point of time is nearly impossible. She's almost never allowed out of sight unless immobilized; she doesn't have any means of transportation (not even money) and Charlie could report her as a missing person and she'd have to avoid everyone in Forks.

Of course he wouldn't actually hit her! I'm kind of wondering what will happen if Carlisle tries to check out her bruises again... Hmm.

she told him finally) it's good to know that he hasn't broke his promise

OMG!!!!!! You scared the shit out of me. I was screaming at Edward and telling him he was such a jerk. I am so glad that Bella did forgive him. He really did it to protect her and he did not hit her in the process. I was VERY proud of Edward. Fantastic Chapter, as ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, by the way I did not get my notice that this story update. I just happen to be looking throught the most recent stories and saw this one. I also did not get my update notice for Voltri Order.
