OH THANK GOODNESS, you're back!  I'm soooo very sorry to hear that RL went crazy for you and to have the virus...OMG...I'm truly VERY SORRY to hear that.  But thank you for not abandoning this story.  I just love it so!  And now not only are you back but so is Edward!  YEAH!  It was perfect.  I guess we all have to wait for good things now and then!

Really glad to hear that things are better for you now.  And again, thanks for continuing.  You made my day with this update!!!

Thank you so much for the concern.  I'm past the worst of it now, although I'm still having to take time to recover.  In a way, it was a hidden blessing because it helped me focus back on this story again.

I'm glad you enjoyed the return of Edward.  =)  He will be very much a part of the next chapters, I assure you!  I'm so glad this made your day.  =)  The next chapter should be up shortly!

Where did you go??  I love this story and was anxiously awaiting an update!  :(  Please post more soon?

I'm so very sorry I went MIA for awhile!  Life has a way of kicking you around sometimes.  I just submitted the next chapter, and I've written up to Chapter 10 in one day!  I plan to have the whole story (looks to be about 17 chapters) finished by as soon as tomorrow evening. 

Thank you for your patience.  I hope the new chapter is worth the wait!

Plz update soon!!! I'm dying for the story to continue!!!!!!!! PLz?

 

It just gets freakier & freakier. Yes!

Very very good.

I saw your story nominated on the Indie Awards, and I loved the title so I thought I'd give it a try since Beauty and the Beast has always been one of my favorites stories.  And I love your story as well.  It's very well written, as well as entertaining.  It has the old story's charm but with the characters we know and love so well.  It's simply enchanting.

i loved it esme is such a sweetheart i always wished i would be a mother like her kind gentle all knowing haha i just seem tired realllllllllly tired haha a 5 and 4 year old do that to most people though from what i hear haha anyhow brilliant chapter i cant wait to read more and alice god love her haha thats all i can say edward is such a wimp haha cant he just man up and realize alice is always right haha

its just simply adorable!

GO ESME!!!

I loved you describing Alice as a "demon pixie". That was hilarious.

Awwww, I kind of really wanted dancing and talking ornaments that used to be human... Oh wells.

For some reason, I think Bella should wander into a library. :P

Lovin' what you're doin', keep it up!

From Tubby. :-)

I like your Charles, in fact I really like the traits of all your charcaters so far.

Ooo she really is like a baddy from a fairytale. The style of this is very reminiscent that genre. I'm impressed.

Party on, Garth.

That was amazing, dear. I adore Esme in this fic. She's exactly the mother that Bella is missing. Edward is gone? Did he run away like in twilight? I can't remember the conditions of this curse, are the Cullens forever cursed or can it be broken?

Sorry, I have a terrible headache and I simply can not remember these details. Regardless, honey, your writing is exquisite. It's eloquent and the story is very realistic. I adore it!

Update soon, bb! <33

Wow, you put a nice new spin on an old classic fairy tale!!  I love it, Eward the beast I just cant stop laughting it so true, lol.  I cant wait to see what you do next!!
