Too bad torture has been outlawed for prisoners.
Date: 13 Aug 2016 4:08 AM Title: Chapter 87
I hope the verdict will be guilty, and since this is a story, it probably will be, but I have served on enough juries that I know how it can go. Here's hoping they give her a lot of years in prison....
Date: 13 Aug 2016 3:30 AM Title: Chapter 87
Lol I presume it has to be guilty and she's gonna go away for a very long miserable time!!!!!
Date: 13 Aug 2016 3:27 AM Title: Chapter 87
This is great!! I hope that the verdict will be Esme is going down and then she runs into some people on the inside that she'll wish she hadn't!! ;)

I guess it was about time he broke down from realisation what happened to him by the hands of "a woman"... And knowing how long it took Jasper to fight back, I'm glad Edward got to it quite fast.
I get why Bella wants to stay with him, though I'm not sure she's the right person for it. This would be the perfect moment for Elizabeth to step up to her mother role again. Because the last time he was hee savior too.
Date: 09 Aug 2016 8:08 AM Title: Chapter 86
Poor Edward. I hope he isn't too far gone
Date: 09 Aug 2016 1:31 AM Title: Chapter 86
I was wondering when he was going to fall apart and blow up.
Date: 09 Aug 2016 1:16 AM Title: Chapter 86
This is a helluva time for him to break down. How can he be fit to testify if he is like that? Won't that hurt the case against Esme with him being so overwrought? Poor Edward.
Date: 09 Aug 2016 12:55 AM Title: Chapter 86
Wow! My heart breaks for all of them. Is Edward going to be able to keep himself together enough to testify?! I'm so worried about him. And how terrible to know you're gonna have to tell the whole world all of your secrets and what you feel ashamed about. Can't wait for Friday to read the next chapter.
Date: 08 Aug 2016 10:12 PM Title: Chapter 86
He finally hit rock bottom. His mind took him to the place we all knew he need to land in order for him to climb out of this severe mental prison.
Jasper has worked through most of his self loathing just by the passing of time but he also needs to start to focus on living after abuse. It will always sneak up on these men at the most unexpected times. Each personal goal though, will set them on a path of self fulfilment. Maybe Jasper should be with Edward so they can release all their fears together and push them into the past. Setting their sights on the future.
Date: 08 Aug 2016 6:36 PM Title: Chapter 85
I'm glad that Bella stood up to Alice. She is too old to have a tantrum. Bella will make her pay. Jasper needs support.

Thank you for the update..Jaz and Alice trash the place

Poor jasper he is making progress and Alice is coming around . Life is looking good
Date: 06 Aug 2016 9:25 AM Title: Chapter 85
I'm glad Bella didn't back down to Alice with taken responsibility for the damage to the room. And getting Jasper his own room might be helping in more ways than just his night terrors, that way he has something that's "only his" and that could be good for his getting better, too.
Date: 06 Aug 2016 3:02 AM Title: Chapter 85
Alice needed to confess her fears to Jasper in order for him to understand where their communication breakdown occurred. Now that they are heading in the right direction as a couple, they can look forward to life after Esme.
Date: 06 Aug 2016 2:16 AM Title: Chapter 85
So glad that Edward and Bella got Jasper and Alice to talk to their dr.
Date: 06 Aug 2016 12:44 AM Title: Chapter 85
It's a good idea for Alice and Jaspter to go to therapy. I hope it helps them. It's been a long time coming to Esme's trial. Here's hoping she gets what she deserves!
Date: 06 Aug 2016 12:29 AM Title: Chapter 85
i was hoping to never read about charlie again in this story. ugh....
Date: 05 Aug 2016 11:53 PM Title: Chapter 85
Glad Alice talked to Bella.
Date: 04 Aug 2016 4:47 PM Title: Chapter 84
I'm so proud of Edward and Jasper. I hope Alice realizes that Jasper speaking out was a great thing. He is not just a shell. He has wants and needs. She should be happy that he is healing. I hope she loves the real Jasper, not the broken one.
Date: 04 Aug 2016 7:17 AM Title: Chapter 84
I think Alice is afraid if he gets better he wont need her anymore she is scared. Edward is making big steps.
Date: 04 Aug 2016 5:53 AM Title: Chapter 83
Wow Jared loved Edward more than anyone knew what an amazing man but he also saw how amazing Edward is.
Date: 04 Aug 2016 1:41 AM Title: Chapter 84
I loved it wow Edward is really doing good but Jasper this is huge for him update soon
Date: 03 Aug 2016 3:56 PM Title: Chapter 84
Alice has been used to being Jasper's everything, and calling all the shots for him. It was her way of protecting him and trying to show him love. She will have to heal and grow with him if their relationship is to survive.

Now who's being selfish? Alice believes that Jasper will become so independent that he won't need her anymore. She needs to work on her couples skills.
Marcus would have had a fit if Edward would have treated his wife like a former client. Then again, maybe that's what Marcus needs to stop oogling Bella.
Date: 02 Aug 2016 4:36 PM Title: Chapter 84

I hope that Alice can see the other side of the deal and realize how far Jasper has come! I'm very happy for him and his progress, he deserves a better life! And I sincerely hope that Alice will be a part of it. I mean doesn't she want Jasper to bloom? I sure she does, she probably only needs someone who opens her eyes a bit...
Date: 02 Aug 2016 3:03 AM Title: Chapter 84
Glad Jasper is taking back his life. I just hopethat Alice will see his point of view.
Date: 02 Aug 2016 1:09 AM Title: Chapter 84
I wonder if Alice is truly being selfish or if she's afraid if they stay in Seattle that Jasper will go backward instead of moving forward. But I'm proud of Jasper for standing up for himself. I hope they set the trial date soon so that they can all try to move forward. I wonder how many moments edward will have where he runs into someone from his escort days? Looking forward to next chapter.
Date: 01 Aug 2016 10:25 PM Title: Chapter 84
I think Alice is the one who is being selfish. Jasper needs to do things his way in order for him to heal. Too bad Alice can't see that, yet. Seems like Edward is healling a bit, inside, if he can help his friend with his troubles. I like that! Thanks for the chapter!
Date: 01 Aug 2016 9:01 PM Title: Chapter 84
I guess Edward taking a moment for himself at the furneral was to be expected. He needed that time to say his "goodbye", I'm sure no one is holding it against him.
Him wanting to surprise Bella with the additional tats is sweet, but I think he could have gotten those with her as well. If only having her with him at the shop and staying for his family crest. That was a bit selfish in my eyes.
Jasper. Calling out to Edward was an impeccable step. Even telling Alice how important it feels to him to stay in Settle was a big step, though I'm sad it ended in the destruction of their hotel rooms :( And thinking they wouldn't need to pay for the repairing because of the friendship to Edward was too forward.
But I'm proud Edward rejected that right away and told him it was "his mess to clean up". Seeing he felt strong enough to eat at the hotel restaurant as well shows its very much helping him having his friend close by.
Date: 01 Aug 2016 8:48 PM Title: Chapter 84
Glad they got to send off Jared in the way he wanted. Yea Alice does need to let go of the control if J is ever going to get better.

Date: 01 Aug 2016 8:05 PM Title: Chapter 84
Wow! Didn't see Alice being a selfish bitch coming at all. Marcus and his wife are both creepy and I'm glad they're gone. And I hope Charlie stays gone too.
Date: 01 Aug 2016 7:57 PM Title: Chapter 84
I'm glad Jasper has Edward to help him sort everything out. I really want Jasper to get better. It surprises me the way Alice is behaving. I'm glad Edward insisted they pay for the damages that they made to the hotel.
Thanks for writing.

I think Edward is having trouble thinking he is worth all that Jenks gave him. He feels he doesn't deserve it, somehow. That is worse than the physical injuries Esme gave him, in my opinion. Physical injuries will heal. Emotional injuries are not so visible and take much inner work to heal. Hopefully he is on his way. He has a lot of support in that. Thanks for a lovely chapter!
Date: 30 Jul 2016 10:19 AM Title: Chapter 83
Of course its a lot to wrap your head around, but so ar Edward does very well hold on;)

I loved the surprise, but agree with both Edward and bella, that Jake and Seth will make great parents!
This was a very nice Christmas - exactly what they all needed;)
Hm... Sex is a no go for Bella at the moment, I hope she'll be able to accept her body again soon and without professional help. Because at the moment it doesn't look like it

Oh how sweet their love is I can't wait for them to be mostly healed and be able to come together for real this time I bet it will so beautiful
Date: 26 Jul 2016 3:38 AM Title: Chapter 82
What a lovely chapter. There are many things about it that I love. The way Edward felt longing and passion for Bella and expressed it, the way Bella knew they really weren't ready for sex and was able to tell him in a way that didn't leave him feeling rejected, the joy of being with new found "family" on the holiday that means so much, the news about Seth and Jacob's baby. All were wonderful and uplifting. Thanks for this, very much!

I'm glad that you are showing that they both have insecurities, but are dealing with them slowly. I'm also glad you didn't mention Charlie the ass again. I really don't want to see or read about him at all anymore.

Sorry this took so long for me to get to...
I am glad Edward is beginning to truly want to get beyond his anger at Elizabeth. That is truly the first step in healing. The desire and drive to get better. Without it, we sulk and wither as we stew in our discontent. He deserves some respite from the storm that has been his life.

They are just taking things a day at a time...that's all you can do in this kind of fucked up situation. Personally I don't think Charlie can ever make up for the shit he's caused. I want to see Bella start her own thing and move out of Charlie's hotel.
