Thanks so much for taking the time to review! If I do continue this it will probably only be another chapter or two.

Thank you so much. That was my first smut for smut's sake and I was real nervous about it.

Thank you hun! Yes, she does need to hear him about but she is stubborn scorned woman right now and isn't listening to anyone but herself.

Thanks for the review.

Glad you liked it.  Hopefully you've continued reading & know all about the accident.  thanks again for reviewing.

THe original Epilogue was where the story was meant to end, but then this little plot bunny was dancing in my head and wouldn't be silenced until I had written it.  Sorry to have made you cry.  Glad you liked it even though it wasn't a HEA - but again, this wasn't in the original outline of the story.  It just somewhere my brain went & I let it carry me.

Thanks so much for every single review you left.  I think you're the only person who has reviewed to each & every chapter... so as my gift to you.   If you have an outtake you'd like to see written, please PM me and I'll see what I can do!!  There's a little piece of me that's having a hard time letting go of these crazy kids.  Put me on author alert in case I post other outtakes.  Thanks again! 

Thank you so much for your review! For those of you who are new to the story, I update every Friday and post teasers on Mondays. The latest teases are up on the Blog (http://kitsushel.blogspot.com/) as we speak. I know everyone's excited about Edward finally showing up! I am too, lol! I love reading your reactions to the chapter and answering your questions!

"I could have left him at that police station and let the damn state take care of it, but I didn't. I stood up and chose to do it. I had to make difficult decisions on a daily basis. Things that I shouldn't have had to worry about, but I did. Because I loved him. For the past five goddamned years, I've loved him and I've made sure that he was fed and clothed and taken care of. I made sure that he had to best education that I could afford and that he knew that he was loved. I've bled, sweat and cried over this child. So screw you, Mr. Cullen, and the horse you rode in on," she seethed in fury.    

Thank you so much for your review! The Monday teases are up on the Blog (http://kitsushel.blogspot.com) as we speak, so check them out if you'd like! The next Outtake, titled: Save Me San Francisco, is looking to be up Wednesday at this point. I though it'd be up sooner, but I got sidetracked, lol.

Listen, I love you guys, which is why I take the time to reply to everyone who reviews and post the teasers and pics to the Blog. It's why I do silly little things, like posting polls and questions via Facebook and Twitter. I want you guys to feel like you are a part of the story. I hope I'm succeeding!

Bella laughed brightly during their back and forth banter, but noticed Emmett's stiff posture out of the corner of her eye. She bit her lip and decided that there was no time like the present to find out just what his problem was. She looked up into Edward's face and smiled.

"Do you think you could go check on Jack, to make sure he remembers his helmet and pads? He has a tendency to forget things when he gets excited."

Edward nodded and grinned before turning and heading up the stairs. When he was out of sight, she whirled to face Emmett and put her hands on her hips.

"What is your problem?"

"I don't know what you're talking about," he replied in a voice as blank as his face. She narrowed her eyes and took a step forward, so she wouldn't have to raise her voice.

"Yes, yes you do. I want to know what problem you have with me, that makes you feel the need to glower at the back of my head whenever you don't think I'm looking. Pretty soon Edward or Jack are going to notice, too, and I'll be damned if I let that happen. Both of them have already been hurt too much without adding you to the pile."

Thank you so much for your review! The next chapter should be up in just a few hours from now! (Midnight, EST) I hope you enjoyed the surprise update, it'll be the last double posting for awhile. I've got other O/S and Outtakes that need my love as well! 

The Fandom for Preemies fundraising has been doing spectacular! Almost $2,ooo have been raised for the March of Dimes! To those of you who contributed, you have my thanks and gratitude!

"I was scared. When I saw her, I was so scared. I- I've been having nightmares about her. That she takes me away from you and Dad. That she hurts one of you or she hurts me. I don't want to see her ever again. Please, Mom, please. Don't let her take me."

Bella's heart completely shattered as the listened to the distress in Jack's voice. In that moment, she could have committed murder and not thought twice about it. Victoria Preston deserved to be be sitting at the gates of Hades right now, waiting to have her soul judged. Bella kissed the top of Jack's head and rubbed his back.

"Ssh, baby. It's okay to be scared, but no one will let her hurt you. There's no force on Earth that will take you from us. Now that he has you back, your dad will move mountains to make sure you're safe, and you know that I would fight like hell for you. There's a very long line of people willing to stand between you and Victoria."

Bella it sounds to this one like you are depending upon your Master.”

“I am and that scares me.” I admitted in defeat. I could see the question raging in her eyes I didn’t give her a chance to pose it.

“Jane I never depended on anyone in my life. Anytime I did it was a complete disappointment. So I just learned to do everything on my own. I hate the fact that I am so weak to need Edward so much.”

“Bella there is no such things as needing your Master too much. Let’s make that clear right now.” Jane’s voice turned demanding “He wants to be needed, it brings him satisfaction to meet your needs and see that you are properly taken care of. There is also no such thing as a weak submissive. It takes a lot of strength, courage and confidence to give yourself over so completely to someone else. It is not an easy thing to do and those that try because they think it is an effortless life find out very soon that it is not. That usually happens with the first punishment.”

thank you..lml

this relationship stuff is kind of new to each of them...thanks for reading ..lml

That is what Edward is hoping for too...

He will, my Edward never lies and always keeps his promises ....Thanks for reading, and leaving a comment ...I have a teaser for you....lml

After taking a quick shower I started to dress in the little cubical but it’s hard to move in there and the floor was wet. Once my underwear was on, I moved out into the main part of the locker room to dry the ends of my hair and finish dressing. Sitting on the bench was the reason for my discomfort. I had only seen her once before but there was no mistaking the tall strawberry blond, Tanya.

Fucking great…

She eyed me as I moved to plug in the hair dryer; her intent gaze on me making my anger flare.

“Do you want something?” I asked catching her gaze in the mirror.

“No. There is nothing you have that I want.” I didn’t miss the double meaning in her statement and frankly I didn’t believe her anyway. I knew damn well what I had that she wanted.

“I am surprised though, Edward doesn’t normally collar his flavor of the month.” I turned off the dryer yanking the plug out of the wall while she went on. “You do know that’s what you are right? Just something to pass his time with, I wouldn’t get too comfortable if I was you.”
