This story always makes waking up on a Monday morning so much better. I look forward to a new chapter very week. Great story!!!
Date: 30 Sep 2012 7:08 AM Title: Chapter 1
FINALLY!!! I've been waiting for this moment since I first started reading! Edward is (hopefully) about to get his just desserts and (hopefully) Bella will have some space to get her head right. Its really sad though. Carlisle apparently had done the same with Esme and basically trained Edward. " Don't spend your time trying to woo her, son - kidnap her and brainwash her, because that's sooo much better than a real relationship with real feelings! "
EXCELLENT CHAPTER!

Fucking fantastic, is what this story is. Looking forward to see what is comming next. And do me a favour? Dont change Edwards personality much, because, that way you will go away from the original concept of the story, which is what attracted people. XOXO. Update ASAP

You know, he deserves it right along with his father and mother.

Your story is good. Just hard to read for me. The abuse she got from her father and Edward is not one bit better. I am not so sure I would just kill myself. What is the hope of living? They all abuse her.

The world of Bella rolling again.
She will remember everything now, and pregnant will be worse, I hope nothing happens to the baby.

loved it, cant wait to read more
Date: 24 Sep 2012 7:26 PM Title: Chapter 20
A full week. No! I can't wait.
Date: 24 Sep 2012 6:43 PM Title: Chapter 20
OMG!!! Everything Edward has done is finally catching up! Can't say I feel sorry for him.
He'll probably find some way to blame this all on Bella - brainwash her into believing it was her fault, then psychologically terrorize her some more...if he's able to! Of course, his dad will probably take his place doing that! I feel so sorry for Bella! Her life has been crap, from Charlie, to Edward.
I wish Edward could change, and they have a HEA, but I just don't think that's possible. He has all of these serious legal problems, now, plus he's lied to, and damaged Bella's psyche so bad, that I don't think it could ever be made right. My only hope is that Bella can find her way, and raise their little girl in a HEALTHY environment!
Looking forward to the next chapter! :)

I really want to punch Edward one, his attitude and personality really gets under my skin. I hope Jasper isn't like them because I don't think Alice could cope with it, I also hope they help free Bella from Edward.
Date: 17 Sep 2012 9:04 PM Title: Chapter 1
wow im throughly horrified at the mind games he plays with her im surprised she is able to survive with a nervous breakdown. I think i have finally read a story where I dont not want Bella and Edward together it seems like he doesnt love her at all and just wants to control her. This story is so well written and thought provoking and unique. I am glad she has alice at least for now and the fact that she defied him to keep her friendship means she is still inside somewhere not use the stepford bella he wants her to be.

She really cannot do anything right in his eyes. And I fucking hate Carlisle! He can go die. Edward too, for that matter. I can't stop reading this though. Morbid fascination, I suppose.

This is great watching everything start to unravel. I would love to know more about Edward and his story, I know earlier on there was some mention but it would still be nice to see.
Date: 20 Aug 2012 5:30 PM Title: Chapter 15
Another great chapter. I would like to know more about Edward. I'm sure it will happen in time.

Just when you thought this story couldn get better IT DID loved it xx
Date: 07 Aug 2012 12:09 PM Title: Chapter 13
If I were Bella, I would ask for a list of acceptable responses when a man she is supposed to be polite to asks her to leave with him, so she could avoid this type of problem in the future. Of course, if I were in Bella's position, I have no idea how I would really react to any of this. Edward is confusing her on purpose, so she will always try extra hard to be perfect for him. He knows he is being unreasonable, but he punishes her and emotionally abuses her so she becomes even more dependent upon his rare moments of kindness. Still, it would be nice for her to ask how she could have avoided this scenario. Maybe he'll throw her a bone and grant her some sort of escape option for the future. She won't be able to avoid going to the restroom or speaking with Edward's best friend who presumably doesn't know about Edward's lifestyle and proclivities toward emotional abuse without raising suspicions, and he has to know this.

Sleep deprivation is probably one of the most effective forms of torture there is. Eventually you would do just about anything for a catnap, and the brain is so pliable that any sort of behavioral conditioning would just seep in like a sponge. I'm beginning to understand how this Stockholm-esque exercise could be so efficacious!
Date: 07 Aug 2012 5:19 AM Title: Chapter 13
loving this story! cant wait for more!

Absafuckinglutly brilliant
Date: 06 Aug 2012 1:48 PM Title: Chapter 13
Why the hell was he so angry with her in the beginning? Did she talk in her sleep? The girl can not catch a break. I really hate this Edward and I really want her to escape and leave his crazy ass!
Date: 30 Jul 2012 6:52 PM Title: Chapter 12
This story makes me so mad this family truly has some freaking issues but I can't seem to so reading it so that clearly shows me that maybe I have some issues too. Are you getting into my head... Awesome story, you're an amazing writer
Date: 30 Jul 2012 3:01 PM Title: Chapter 12
Wow this story just keeps gettin better and better loved it xx
Date: 30 Jul 2012 2:59 PM Title: Chapter 12
Oh my god, what torture that was. Not the chapter, but what they did to her. It's fucking scary...I'm about to go to sleep and I hope I dont dream about creepy Edward or Carlisle.

Where is this freakin' cult with these crazy Stockholm Syndrom inducing men? Good chapter. Can't wait for more.
Date: 29 Jul 2012 9:22 PM Title: Chapter 9
Yep...just like I said...cracked. Wow. I can't believe this doesn't have more reviews because it's freakin' awesome. I don't usually go for dark stories, but this one sucked me in from the beginning. Can't wait for more.

I hope the reason Edward's under arrest in chapter 1 is because he killed Charlie in Chapter 3...great start.

Interesting start,.
Date: 28 Jul 2012 4:21 AM Title: Esme's pov outtake
Poor Esme! I really enjoyed getting her perspective. I knew that from the previous chapter that she wasn't bad but I couldn't figure out why she blabbed anyway. It's so disturbing reading this, but disturbing in a really interesting way. Psychology always is.
Date: 28 Jul 2012 4:01 AM Title: Chapter 10
Eek! Carlisle is such a creeper! I'm really interesting in reading Esme's POV now. What is her mind like??
Date: 27 Jul 2012 4:34 PM Title: Esme's pov outtake
Freakimg grr I thought it was gonna be a real freaking chapter gonna cry T_T
Date: 27 Jul 2012 3:15 PM Title: Esme's pov outtake
Edward & Carlisle are psycho! Their "methods" and treatment of women is disgusting!!! And Esme's right about one thing...she should have NEVER mentioned the dream! So yes, to some extent, even though Edward definitely overreacted, it was her fault! There was absolutely NO reason to have mentioned it. She KNEW that it was going to get Bella in trouble...she's lived this way long enough to know that! Yet, she done it anyway. :(
And Carlisle is the biggest douche of them all! One, for doing what he's done to Esme, and two, for raising Edward to be a nut like him! Third, for exerting his "dominance" and influence over everyone like he's some kind of family patriarch that is to be looked up to and respected. NOT!!!
Coming over to help his son "discipline" his girlfriend/wife, or whatever she may be, is just utterly insane!!! He should have NO say or influence in his son's home. Edward is a victim of his father's brainwashing and influence too, in a round about way. However, he's an intelligent guy, who has his freedom, and is out in the world everyday...enough to know and realize that this is NOT right or normal! It's a shame that he thinks that this is the only way that he could get a woman, or keep her. Bizarre!
I hope that Esme & Bella can get free, and get the help that they will obviously need. I was hoping that Edward would realize that his father & his ways were wrong, take control of his own life, and start treating Bella with true love & respect...but I'm thinking that it's never going to happen. :(
Good story so far! Definitely keeps you on the edge of your seat. Looking forward to the next chapter! :) Thanks!
Date: 27 Jul 2012 2:48 PM Title: Esme's pov outtake
I'm glad she wasn't just telling on Bella to get her into trouble!
Date: 27 Jul 2012 2:13 PM Title: Chapter 6
I don't like that Edward and Bella end up together, but I'm finding this story interesting so I'm going to keep reading it anyway.
Date: 27 Jul 2012 1:31 PM Title: Chapter 5
That is seriously scary. Edward is seriously scary. It's insane to think of the prologue while reading this.
Date: 27 Jul 2012 12:13 PM Title: Chapter 3
Wow. I'm really interested to see how their relationship changes from this to the courtroom in the prologue. Worlds apart.
Date: 27 Jul 2012 12:09 PM Title: Esme's pov outtake
Awww bless her
Date: 27 Jul 2012 11:37 AM Title: Chapter 2
Interesting; I'm liking this. I wonder how she'll react when Edward comes into the picture. Will his personality be caring but in an overly protective, domineering way? And because she's been neglected, will she actually like it? I don't know if I've worded my thoughts correctly. I wrote it in a bit of a hurry...I want to read the next chapter ;)
Date: 24 Jul 2012 10:20 PM Title: Chapter 4
Hello, This is an absorbing story. Poor Bella went from the frying pan to the fire. Some people have one bad thing after another happen to them. My only problem with the story is that you made Edward into the bad guy. The bad guy should have been Jacob. Now back to the story and hopefully Bella learns to fool him into thinking she is being brain-washed.
Date: 24 Jul 2012 7:22 AM Title: Chapter 10
Don't tell me they're going to keep her up for 3 days him and his dad totally messing up her head? How can be expect her to be so open with him when he doesn't talk just yells and etc.. punishing her for her thought/dreams. She has no control over that sort of thing. She better learn to watch what she says to Esme. It might her feel better at that moment but it will cost her dearly later
Date: 23 Jul 2012 8:48 PM Title: Chapter 10
That whole family is crazy! Even though Esme seems to be brainwashed herself, I don't understand what she could've told Edward to make him treat Bella that way. I thought she and Bella had a good day together. I feel that she threw Bella under the bus, intentionally or not! If Edward hadn't reacted the way that he did over nothing, he could've made some real progress with Bella, and had more of the relationship that he is looking for. And Carlisle is a total douche! Like father, like son! I feel sorry for Bella...first Charlie, now them! Out of the frying pan, and into the fire!
Great story, so far...Looking forward to the next chapter! Thanks! :)
Date: 23 Jul 2012 6:32 PM Title: Chapter 10
Even though this story is truly creepy, I can't seem to stop myself from reading it. That tells me it is very well written!
Date: 23 Jul 2012 2:26 PM Title: Chapter 10
What te hell! She needs to escape and be free of this monster. She would be better off on her own on the streets. She is getting punished because of a nightmare she had no control over. She did not chose to have her past in her dreams. Gos only inows what kind of punishment Carlisle is going to guve her. I don't want her to have a hea with Edward. I want her to be free of him that life. Even if she loved him which she was brainwashed to do, she will still live as a slave. Look at Esme, waht kind of life is that.
Date: 23 Jul 2012 12:53 PM Title: Chapter 10
Ohhh I wana no wats gona happen update quickly pleaseeeeeeee lol xx
Date: 23 Jul 2012 12:37 PM Title: Chapter 10
Oh so scary....how do you come up with this stuff.... Love it
Date: 17 Jul 2012 11:57 PM Title: Chapter 8
Okay, Edward's control/rage issues might have come by naturally after all! I look forward to meeting Esme!
Date: 17 Jul 2012 11:43 PM Title: Chapter 7
Okay, she's gone over the edge now! She's held off far longer than I would, I think.
Date: 17 Jul 2012 11:32 PM Title: Chapter 6
I think you captured the Stockholm aspect truly with these lines: "The words flowed from my mouth flawlessly; the emotion built behind them rang true. And for a moment, even I believed them." thanks!
Date: 17 Jul 2012 11:18 PM Title: Chapter 5
Woah. Yes, he is a dick. And insane.
Date: 17 Jul 2012 11:08 PM Title: Chapter 4
I think I can somewhat understand how Stockholm Syndrome can work its way into someone's psyche, even while they fight it.
Date: 17 Jul 2012 10:51 PM Title: Chapter 2
Wow, what a scumbag! I'm confused though. Maybe it's a state-by-state thing, but we never needed parental permission to attend AP classes in my high school. We sometimes needed a teacher's recommendation saying we qualified to take them, but parents weren't involved in the process at all. May I presume you are taking artistic license, or does this vary by state?
Date: 17 Jul 2012 10:46 PM Title: Chapter 1
Well, you've seemed to embody Esme extremely well; she sounds like a boyscout, "always prepared" with tissues ans band-aids no less! Is this just her thorough mothering, or is it the fact that Bella is particularly prone to needing bandages? Time will tell.
Date: 17 Jul 2012 3:48 PM Title: Chapter 9
I donno what to say about..1 thing 4 sure, Edward's family is really sick!
Date: 17 Jul 2012 2:09 AM Title: Chapter 9
Scary as hell. I get this feeling that E is being brainwashed by his parents or he thinks he needs to please them. The emotional torture towards Bella is sickenng.
Date: 17 Jul 2012 1:25 AM Title: Chapter 9
Brainwashing is scary as hell.

Date: 16 Jul 2012 3:21 PM Title: Chapter 8
It's a really good story. Creepy but good.
Date: 15 Jul 2012 7:01 PM Title: Chapter 1
Wow- I have to say that this is very different and you do an excellent job of taking us all through Bell's ordeal and how she's slowly succuming to the brainwashing. I am concerned that your last author's note said that this would be both HEA and B&E would end up together in the end. Unless there's one hell of a twist coming, I find that very disturbing. Yes, the whole concept you're working with is dusturbing and that in and of itself isn't a bad thing- it's quite creative and done very well so far. What I mean is the idea that they could end up together- if everything is to be taken at face value- being considered an HEA ending is disturbing. I will definately keep up with this to see how you plan to pull that together. Keep up the good and disturbing work!
Date: 15 Jul 2012 2:21 PM Title: Chapter 8
OH NOOO.. I am at the end of the chapters... oh please oh please write more... I can't wait to see Esme... I went back to the first chapter just to get a better picture of what is going to happen.. and I am convinced she is going to be just as bad as Edward.
I AM LOVING THIS.
