He is fairly dickworthy...

i feel sad for edward and wonder why he is alone

I am so intrigued! Can't wait to see where this story goes. Found your through your story thread at twilighted so I kinda know where this is going but not really. LOL Great first meeting. Excited to read more!

Author's Response:

Cool!  I stumbled across "Bite to Break Skin" when I saw your banner there.  I read it all in one afternoon.

Yikes!  What happened in Forks?  I have a bad feeling about what is coming next!

Rats!  I love Rumi and I was all excited that there was a volume that I had missed!

Can't wait to see what happens next!

Author's Response:

You don't happen to know what book I can find that poem in, do you?  None of my Rumi books have it.

Loving this!  What a perfect setting and your character development is working for me instantly!  Fun! Fun!

Nice rewrite of the legends and now we know that there is no treaty and no wolves at this point of the story - great job! I wonder who lost their mate altho I'd have to guess it's Edward our poor reclusive boy (vamp, whatev) :)

I can imagine that when Bella returns to the story smelling of dog E is not going to be a happy camper, or maybe he will have visit her since he pushed her away to being with.  And now too Bella has some ammunition when she confronts him..eeep, I am nervous for poor Edward!

Thank you for the superb, quick update!! 

 

Oh my! This is an interesting take! Bet the cold ones that were attacked were the Cullens and could have Edward lost his mate during that attack and that is why he is not with them? Great story!

I really really like this story.   I can't wait to see where it goes.

Wow. Umm *fans self* This is one of those rare, amazing fics that it's really sensual without smut. Amazing.

Edward is stronger than the books, I really like that. He is tempted and he just met her but he is resisting.

Author's Response:

Uh...we'll get there, soon enough.  Sorry.

I really enjoyed the twist on the Quileute legend and the telling of said legend in this chapter. It's going to be very interesting to see where your going with it since it sounds as if there is no treaty, and a whole lot of bad blood between them.

Wonderful visual writing of that scene, btw. I felt as though I could see them all very clearly gathered around that fire. It was very all very engaging and edgy, as I'm sure you intended it to be. Oh, and am I sensing a little foreshadowing with the Sam/Leah/Emily triangle? That makes me a little sad. I always felt awful for Leah in the books. (Yes, way too attached to these characters, but then aren't we all, lol.)

With the vampire mating bond being what it is - or what it is mainly portrayed as - I can see the possibility of it being Edward's mate who was killed by the Pack. His reclusive behaviour and general air of melancholy certainly lend credence to that thought. I'm struggling however, with the idea of him not finding some way to exact revenge, or that he could ever love Bella given the 'one mate' mentality the books established. Going with canon 'law' - so to speak. I'm definitely not the canon police and this is your story, lol - Edward would most likely have offed himself after such a loss. Which then makes me wonder... Carlisle/Esme? After all if there was one vampire capable of turning the other cheek and not attempting to slaughter the entire Pack, it would be him.

Wheels are definitely spinning now... The letters to Carlisle...The melancholy that could also be guilt/trauma...Alice attempting to bring the family back together again... Hmm...

Can't wait for more, but update when you can. No worries. I'm too hooked on this wonderful story to harm its writer. :-)

Good luck with the next chapter.

Author's Response:

No, no Emily/Sam/Leah love triangle.  Sam has never phased, and therefore has never imprinted on Emily.  If you remember, Jared didn't imprint on Kim until after he phased.  Sam's relationship with Leah progressed the way they had both assumed it would back in high school.  I just put the thing about Emily in there to emphasize the fact that Sam and Emily weren't together, and to be funny. :)

I´m really liking this, please continue!

Oh, you know I think from clues in the earlier parts of this story I may know who the wolves killed.  *sob!*
