Oh yeah, that's more like it! I'd really love to see bella be the one to catch her, but I seriously need Edward to behead this redhead too.
Can't wait for the next chapter!

Loving this story - can't wait to see the cunning plans these women come up with.
Date: 18 May 2010 5:46 AM Title: A Snake Hiding in the Garden
It was a great chapter. The whole family starts preparing to ensure the safety of each other. The blade for Edward was a great idea and will probably be very usefull in the future.
Date: 18 May 2010 3:39 AM Title: A Snake Hiding in the Garden
Oh this is going to be great! I can't wait for the wrath that is Princess Isabella and the other Cullen women. Tanya is going down and then straight to the blocks. I can't wait!

gosh, that tanya is soo detestable and hateful. i really hope she meets with a horrible end soon. i want her disgraced and others to know that she is a very vile, shameful, woman.
and i'm glad that the cullen women aren't just going to take it lying down. good for them!!!
i hope that bella figures out what's wrong with their strategy soon before it's too late...
Date: 17 May 2010 6:00 AM Title: A Snake Hiding in the Garden
That was amazing! I really cannot wait to see what the Cullen women have planned ;) Also hope they catch Tanya ASAP!

Bring it on! I'm really quite desperate to know who's behind this. I mean, I know Tanya is, but I want to know if she's the mastermind or if it goes any deeper. This is just so GOOD!

Gosh Mike, we hardly knew you! Oh well, if someone had to be sacraficed for the good of the story I'm not too sad it was him. I just hope the Cullen men will listen when the women come up with the solution for Tanya.
Good chapter !

It is time for Bella to show how fierce she truly is and being a royal and future Queen.
Date: 17 May 2010 3:29 AM Title: A Snake Hiding in the Garden
I love it, love it, love it! Having the women come up with a plan to get rid of Tanya, well what better way to catch a female dog than to utilize the female minds around you?! Of course the men will get the glory, but I REALLY hope Tanya will know who was behind her capture :)
Date: 17 May 2010 3:25 AM Title: A Snake Hiding in the Garden
Wow, good chapter, I love a devious plan in the works.
Date: 17 May 2010 3:22 AM Title: A Snake Hiding in the Garden
Hell hath no fury like a MamaBear out to protect her cub. Tanya is going to wish she were dead before she loses her head at the Tower. Cannot wait to see the next chapter, this one was so great!
Date: 17 May 2010 3:19 AM Title: A Snake Hiding in the Garden
I'm glad that Carlisle cleared the court, at least for now. Sometimes it's better to keep your nobles close, so that you can keep an eye on them. Then again, with a killer on the loose, and an apparent conspiracy, it's better to get them out of the way.
I'm so proud of Bella. The other royal ladies already look to her for leadership. I can't wait to see what she cooks up.
As for her confusion when she pondered the European map: she thought there was a hole in their intelligence. Could Tanya and company, or another conspiracy, be leaking information to France? Perhaps someone who is unhappy with the Spanish alliance? Perhaps someone who'd like to see Carlisle and his family overthrown?
Thanks for the update. I'm gonna hop on over to your blog to check for a teaser.

Date: 14 May 2010 11:11 AM Title: A Day For Miracles
Holy Crap, I hate period pieces, which is why I didn't start this sooner. But wow, this is awesome. You wrote it incredibly well, I can't even imagine how difficult this must be to write. This is such a beautiful, romantic love story. Aw. Her father has to go...sending him mistresses so he could cheat on his daughter, disliking his daughter because she's a woman. Now, he's mad because she snuck out and fell in love?...what an ass.
I have to laugh though, do you follow the 'top 10 most reviewed story list'? You are #5. You keep battling back and forth with that 'explosive encounter' story, each swapping time at 5 or 6. Ha, I happen to be one of the authors to that story, lol.
But, this story is beautiful and deserves every review it gets.
Author's Response:
Awe...thanks. I've been meaning to read that, but I'm not really starting any new stories right now. As it is, I'm barely keeping up with the updates of the ones I'm already invested in. I plan on checking that one out soon though.
I'm so glad you're enjoying the story. I hope you like the rest! Thank you for the praise and the review!

génial
Date: 14 May 2010 3:03 AM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
gosh, tanya is such an annoyance!!! her devious ways never end. even when she's gone, she has to leave evil little bits of herself behind. arghgghg... but i like the way bella went about trying to deal with the situation. whereas edward would probably try to solve the problem head on while bella is definitely more subtle. i really like that about her. no matter the situation, she keeps a level head and a clear mind

Date: 14 May 2010 12:56 AM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Thanks for the double chapter this week!! It was very much enjoyed! So Tanya is still able to spread her evilness even when she has been banded from court, pretty scary her tallons must be very long.
Date: 13 May 2010 11:54 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
poor edward, cockblocked by his cousin. poor thing. lol I loved that chapter. bella made friends with the Italians which i love the fact that it was Demetri and Felix. keep up the great work. thanks again bye
Date: 13 May 2010 9:42 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
with this chapter i think you get to see Bella changing and growing into her womanhood.

I'm glad you saw that. I don't think many people noticed the subtle changes. :D Thanks

I think it's wonderful to see how much faith King Carlisle has in Bella's abilities. I also love to see how proud Prince Edward is of her. Looking forward to seeing how these rumors get taken care of. :0)

Princess Isabella the diplomat. I hope Edward realizes that she won't be the power behind the throne...she will be the throne! I love the fact that she is quiet and somewhat shy but powerful when she needs to be. And Edward, well he still owns me, no matter what.
Thanks for the early update on Rob's birthday!
Date: 13 May 2010 3:35 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
I had a feeling that the runours would get started anyway. I wonder who Tanya has on the inside now? How else would she be able to sread the rumours?
Very interesting. Can't wait for the next update!
Date: 13 May 2010 3:34 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Tanya is just vile. Emmett will get to the bottom of this mess.
Date: 13 May 2010 3:30 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Tanya is such a bitch! Woman scorned and all that. Know when to accept defeat and deal with it. Why buy the cow when the milk is free?!?!
Excellent chapter ~ You handled the language, tone and setting well. Looking forward to more!
Date: 13 May 2010 2:43 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Court intrigues! I can never decide whether it was more dangerous in those days to be a lowly commoner or a royal or member of the nobility! One had to worry about starving and the other about a chess game of life and death proportions! I feel for Rosalie here. Given those accusations then, she would have been sent off to live the rest of her life in a nunnery! Such a waste...and so unjust after showing such bravery as to comer forward! Lovin' Emmett here though. I'm hoping for some lovely, romantic scenes between those two. Once more you've given us a winner and left us needing more!
Date: 13 May 2010 2:32 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Love it! Can't wait to see what's next!
Date: 13 May 2010 2:02 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Very very clever.
Date: 13 May 2010 2:00 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
I'm adding a little to my original review, which appears on ff.net. Something I forgot to add.
If Edward and Carlisle for some reason were not to take care of the Tanya situation, it could be dangerous for the alliance between Spain and England. Of course, I know that E and C aren't letting that fact motivate them, because they adore Bella. However, to call into question the chastity (outside of marriage) and faithfulness of Bella could really get Tanya into trouble in the international community. That's one of the reasons why queens and princesses would have constant companionship, even when sleeping. Once the marriage had been proven (wedding night), it was for the woman's own protection to always have a few of her trusted ladies with her when her husband was not there.
Off with Tanya's head. Off with her family's heads. I know it probably won't happen, because Carlisle and Bella are very gracious, but still, I want it to happen. I must be bloodthirsty.
Date: 13 May 2010 1:58 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
What a chapter!
xoxo
Date: 13 May 2010 1:50 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Tanya must pay a big price for her actions. I know Edward was a womanizer before and in some way he is being held for his actions. However, Bella has done nothing and is paying the biggest price.
Great Story!!!
Date: 13 May 2010 1:50 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
I just love this story and always get excited to see it updated.,
Date: 13 May 2010 1:38 PM Title: Diplomacy and Alternative Forms of War
Tanya is just EVIL! I can't wait to see what happens now that she's started this crap. She has to know that she can't win. She's just desperate. Hopefully there won't be too many people who believe it!
Date: 12 May 2010 10:15 PM Title: Aftermath
Well I'm so glad I went back and looked and found these 2 chapters. I knew her telling him about the baby had to be in here. I'm glad she came out and asked him if he was with Tanya rather than go on assuming he did. I want to say surely she'd know he would never do that to her but then I have to remember what her father was like. Anyway I'm glad they got that all cleared up. I'm really looking forward to the next new chapter. Great job with this story. :0)
Date: 12 May 2010 9:34 PM Title: The Brewing Storm
Well I don't know how this happened but it looks like I missed a couple chapters. This is great! I was sad that I had ran out of chapters to read but now I find I have a little more. I'm so happy to see Bella sitting in with the council and being of assistance.
Date: 12 May 2010 8:32 PM Title: Banished
Yay Tanya is gone but have we really heard the last of her? She seemed a bit obsessed sometimes people like that just don't stop. Can't wait to see the King and Queens joy at Edward and Bella's announcement. I would have like to have seen what it was like when Bella told Edward. did I miss it somehow??? going to go look.
Date: 12 May 2010 7:12 PM Title: The Dog and The Cobra
Gotta love Alice! :0) I do believe I really like Rose too. Can't wait for Edward to find out whats been going on. He's going to feel terrible because in this case it was his behavior in the past that has caused this to be as bad as it is.
Date: 12 May 2010 6:26 PM Title: Deceptively Beautiful
Looks like Tanya may stir things up a bit. Going on to the next chapter now. :0)
Date: 12 May 2010 6:02 PM Title: Confidante
I'm so glad Carlisle made her that offer. I was thinking she was going to grow bored and unhappy with life the way it was ther in England. Back in Spain she was secretly envolved in things helping her brother out. I think Edward will be happy to have her with him. :0)
Date: 12 May 2010 5:38 PM Title: The Demands of Duty
Hate to see the 3 guys have to leave but proud of how well Bella handled it. Realizing it's his duty and thinking of all the lives he could save if they could settle the conflict without war. She's shown herself to be wise this time around. :0)

That went pretty well. I'm nervous about what kind of trouble the jealous ladies will cause. Going to read the next chapter now. :0)
