Definitely his just desserts! Loved it. The last chapter *tear*-can't wait.

Oh. My. God. That was so mean! My guess is she heard Carlisle's voice.

Shotgun Charlie! Haha!

Yay Edward!The closet sex was hawt. Thank god Bella didn't let Jacob put his peen in her! Jacob's wanted to have sex with Bella since he was ten? Isn't he older than her in this story? How old was she? That's kinda creepy. I loved Edward's emotionally bravery, looking forward to his POV!

So far so good. I have a feeling things are about to get interesting! Hope you update soon ;)

Oh, you are an evil little tease! Holding the nexp chapter hostage, tsk tsk. (j.k. *wink*) I am liking this story, a lot. Glad the next chapter is longer, this one felt like a teaser- it was getting so good! Hope you update soon.

I like that Bella is drawn to the monster as well as his softer side, and doesn't want to change him. Yes, huge steps for them, especially Edward. I have a feeling it will be a two steps forward, one step backward type of process with him.  Is the she Esme? Will Emmett and Rosalie be in this story? Just curious. Loving it so far, can't wait for your next update.

I love his playful side. Aha, it was Rosalie! She's such a bitch, got to love her.

CHAPTER IS GONE??  : (

Very promising beginning!

At first I didn't like Carlisle so much, he was too detached from Jasper. He seemed to be making the same mistakes with Jasper that Jasper had made with Edward, showing too much emotional indifference, wearing the master mask, but not showing any concern or offering enough reassurance. The Carlisle POV really helped. Now I understand where he is coming from, not just the hurt, but the overwhelming guilt he is feeling. He seems to be in almost the same state of mind as Jasper, no longer a master and no longer a man. So, Alec is dead, hm, interesting. I'm also curious about Carlisle's phone call to New York. Is that something important to the plot?

I think Edward and Jasper both need to go back to New York with Carlisle. Damn those boys need help! And Edward needs to work things out with his parents too. So glad he's making the effort with his mom and trying to get to know Rosalie, but damn his dad, that's harsh. That kind of damage takes time to repair though, and should be done in person really. Good chapter!

Holy shit, be afraid Bella, very afraid! Where the hell is Edward at? I thought he went looking for Bella, she came back the way she went, and he should have been able to track her scent. Luckily, Esme stuck around though. My first reaction was that Esme had done it to make Bella think Edward had. Is she really going to kill Bella, would she risk losing Edwards love? Or is she just trying to scare Bella out of his life? Looking forward to the next update!

Oh, Edward finally gets to do some punishing that he's been itching to do. And we get to see exactly what he means by "punishment" and exactly how dark this dominant Edward is!

Wow, I'm so glad they're finally opening up to each other about James. Poor Rose, thank goodness it's only stripping, for a moment there I thought he would pimping her out! I was surprised Jasper admittied to James' sexual advances that had to have been difficult for him. I'm curious though, he didn't exactly tell him about him molesting him as a child did he? I think that or the truth about their mother would have completely sent him over the edge. James definitely deserves to die. I just hope they don't get caught! I really feel that Bella is too young to be getting pregnant on purpose, but I can understand her reasoning however morbid, so I'm happy for them. Maybe the baby will be the catalyst Carlisle needs live and not be so hellbent on self-sacrifice. Charlie's gonna be pissed! Too bad he wasn't such a prejudgmental jerk to them. It would have been nice if Bella could have helped them by turning to her "chief of police" father to put a child molesting, murdering, drug dealing abusive stepfather in prison! Keep up the good work ;)

"What just happened?" My thoughts exactly. Confused, but definitely intrigued.

Okay, is Edward totally just playing her? Does he have a split personality? Does he have an identical twin? Poor Bella, but honestly not as bad as I thought. I thought for sure she was going to find him in a. um. compromising position. Anyways, still intrigued!

They are just too cute!

"Of course. I think I would die if I couldn't kiss you." He says the sweetest frikkin things!

*gasp* OMG!

This story is so good.

He stopped her ungraciously from her confession. Forcing Bella to continue to shoulder her burden of guilt. Most ungentlemanly of Edward, I'm shocked. He must at least have an inkling of what happened, and wishes not to have his suspicions confirmed. Maybe he doesn't want the knowledge to blemish his perception of Bella, but he can't just bury his head in the sand! Especially since it was not just an isolated event, Mace is pursuing his girl. He needs to man up, avoidance only makes it easier for Mace to manipulate them. I have a bad feeling about this.

Another great chapter and thank you for updating so swiftly :)

I feel so bad for Bella and Edward. I can't help but thinking though that if Edward had allowed Bella to confess to him, he would have been aware of Mace's intentions and possibly could have avoided this clusterf**k of a situation. I can understand that he is terribly upset, but I still think he was too harsh with Bella. His actions contributed to what happened, and Bella is the victim here! She is the one that was tricked and taken essentially against her will. Edward is such a thoughtful caring gentleman, I hope that he can see past his own pain and give Bella is support and compassion. I'm so glad Bella told Mace off, and the slap (yay Bella!); she should have given him another. I hope she can remain strong. Edward needs to realize that pushing Bella away is only playing into Mace's agenda, leaving the door open for him. I would like to see the Alice/Mace talk went, it not in the story, maybe you could add it to the outtakes!

Emmett is too flipping adorable. I must say I'm really missing Edward. Yay Alice, I have a feeling that her  perspective should be enlightening for us!

No, no, no! Please don't kill Edward. Mace has gone completely delusional and desparate. He really needs help. On a happier note, I loved how Bella won Edward back, so them and so perfectly quirky and romantic.  Love this story!

*whimper* what a jerk!

Can't wait to read more! :)

Loved it, hope you update soon!

Two faves: the kiss and Bella gawking at Edward's naked bod!

I would love a sequel, but this story isn't close the end yet, is it?

Mine too, the only thing that would have made it better was if they hadn't had an audience and she got to feel his morning wood! ;)

I loved the whole chapter, but I thought Bella defending Edward's man-boobs (*gasp* as if!) was adorably funny!

Another great chapter. The "fart incident" was too funny! So Edward knows what's up now, and some shit is going to go down! Can't wait to see it all play out. I loved that Edward told her about Alec and Jane without her having to ask/beg him. And the part where he told Jasper his dad asked about him when he didn't, and when he grabbed Aro's face and told him he was his boy. He's such a softie! ;) I still don't think it's a good idea to trust Jacob around Bella, but that's probably just an irrational Jacob bias!

Ohhh, what she draw?! He hasn't mentioned the fact that she said his name, twice. Why not? Loving this story :)

Awww, poor poor girl, and Edward is so tender and wonderful with her.

Duh, duh, dun! They better not try to take her away! Love this Alice :)

She spoke! And she's going home with Edward :) :) :)

Amazing! Please update as soon as you possibly can, I'm an emotional wreck right now.

If there wasn't a note, why would Rose assume they're for Bella? I mean it is her apartment and she did just have a fight and make up with her boyfriend. Just saying. I am curious though if there is some sort of stalker of the women at the club or something with how strange they were acting, and even Leah too. And "pipes bursting," sounds more like a plumbing problem than an engine one, lol. I get it though, someone tampered with her car and they just didn't want her to know. Why doesn't Edward want her to know though? Wouldn't she be safer if she was aware of the danger?!

Aha, so she does have a stalker then? I was thinking probably not a jealous ex girlfriend of Edwards because I had forgotten about the roses. They never came up. So Chilly is Victoria, which pretty much seals it- creepy guy has to be James. Mentioned Leah looking like Emily, a drug mule, interesting. That why he's been watching her, did he think she was Emily? Is Leah up to no good? Haven't gotten a good read on her character, she's moody maybe a bit shifty. Hmm, I'm curious, isn't Jacob his best friend? Because he doesn't say ex-best friend. So, did Jake sleep with his ex-wife? Was Edward married to Angela, and now she's married to Jake? Or did Jake cheat on Angela and she forgave him, after sleeping with Edward? Or, maybe it was someone else entirely, lol!

Ohhh, I had a feeling it'd be her, hmmm. And is she preggers?! The smells, lightheadedness and tiredness... not like her, and she was sick awhile ago, wonder if the cold meds she was taking were antibiotics!

"I peed myself." Aw, it's gross, lol, but poor thing and the way Edward is with her such a sweet moment.

I sure am enjoying rereading this as you move it over here! I miss this story so much... real life can be such an unkind bitch. As always, sending positive thoughts your way!

Oh no, what's wrong?!

And Edward didn't even get to finish, you tease!

Can't wait for the update :)

Alice's response to the balls and Paul breaking into Bella's apartment literally made me laugh out loud. Priceless!
