What can I say, an extremely intense chapter.  The depth of feelings immense.  Those poor little children locked in that room for weeks. I personally would have loved to knock around Marcus myself.  They were babies and Edward has no right to blame himself.  He was curious about his mother.  A lot of adopted children are curious about their biological parents.  wondering why they put them up for adoption.  As Carlisle said normally looking for parents would never have been this traumatic.  Marcus was nuts.  Sick useless man with pure evil in his heart.  so happy Emmett was quick and got the information to his parents.  As Bella said Edward it wasn't murder, it was self defense.  The man was starving you both, beating you both, planning on selling you to sex perverts, and planning on raping your sister in front of you.  Hello what else can you do, you have to defend yourself and protect your sister.  You were all you both had at the time.  What kind of mother would allow her stepfather to do that to his and her children.  Elizabeth was definitely not all there.  Whoa, that's a lot of information to absorb as a reader, imagining Bella taking it all in and her compassion being so great, the pain she felt for his pain and suffering.  

Great chapter.

 

YAY Alice!!!  Great chapter-----moving on to the next one---can't wait!!! Can't wait till she meets Edward and Emmett.

So far so good.  Really can't wait to continue.  And can i just say how much i love Charlie!!!!  Always have, always will.  He and Carlisle are total DILFS.  I think it's the stache.

Wow, intense.

 

I am continually thrilled whenever I see that your story is updated. Looking forward to more, as ever.

 

Thanks!

I am seriously obsessed with this!  And i love how you are writing from EPOV.  Its nice to see what his actual feelings are.

Are we going to hear the story of why they left Alaska?  Or what really happened the night of the party with James?  At first i though the was a good guy, but he just creeps me out especially what he just said about how he is "going fill every hole she's got.  No one's gonna want her when I am done with her."  I swear I shuddered in disgust and was thinking why don't Edward say something to someone-Alice!

 

This is so super good!!   Cannot absolutely wait for more!!!

I so look forward to seeing your updates posted - i do my little happy dance and get so excited. I love how fu**ed these two are with each other and can totally see how this could happen. Actually I have seen this with a best friend of mine and it did not end well. Here's hoping this one does cus I sure love my angsty romances to end happy ever after style. But hey, this is your show and I am just along for the ride, so I am not complaining, BUT, I am just saying, ya know!! Don't like to control much, hey!
