Hi.  I'm Sare.  If you'd like to know more about me, feel free to send me a message, or follow me on Twitter (sareliz).  I've begun to post DESS on Twilighted, so that's exciting.


In the meantime if you're curious, feel free to wander over to fanfiction.net/~sareliz, where my bio is far more engaging.  (What can I say? ::shrugs:: I was feeling it that day.)

Summary:

Anna Russo has received a new identity and is on the run from her abusive ex-boyfriend with her young son in tow. She ends up in Forks, where she is now known as Bella Swan, and meets Edward Cullen. While she can't deny the unexplainable pull she feels toward him, she also can't shake off the feeling that he is not quite normal and not quite...human. Does she dare explore a new relationship with Edward while in fear for her life? Will Edward be able to put her safety first and stay away from the family he's always dreamed of having? And what will Bella's jilted ex do when he finally does catch up with her?

Sometimes, humans are monsters, too.

 

A HUGE thanks to Rosalynn for the amazing banner and for all of the help getting it attached to my story!

Favorite line: "I could be an aunt?"

And like that ::snaps fingers:: we have Rosalie onboard.

I adore it.

Date: June 30, 2009 Title: Chapter 5: Taking Over Me

Oh my god.  How much did I love this chapter?  Words cannot express it!

Favorite Line: "He would do it all.  He was a vampire; he could multitask."

And that his love and devotion instantly extended to Bella's child in a very real and concrete way, and that Ben is obviously in on the 'mom has just become the mate of a vampire' mystical business in that he feels safe even unconsciously... I just ADORE it.

Gorgeous chapter.  Thank you so much for it.

You know, I'm mostly a nonviolent person, but I have to say, I wouldn't be opposed to you torturing him.  I don't love that I'd like to see it, but it's true.

::sigh::  I don't love that part of me, but it exists...



Author's Response:

I'm also a very nonviolent person, so some days I really worry about myself when these ideas come so easily to me... :) But we hate him for all of the right reasons, right???? :D

I love, I lovelovelove, that Edward's voice is manically cheery as he taunts the dipshit. ::hugs:: Thanks for that. Gorgeous.

Intriguing!  Looking forward to what comes next!

I'm glad you are enjoying so far! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

 
Reviewer: sareliz Signed
Date: September 17, 2009 Title: Chapter 17: Eyes On Fire

It is always good to see some reference to the fact that enacting violence on someone changes the person enacting it, as much as the person receiving it.  Thank you for treating this topic with respect.

Good chapter.  I look forward to seeing how the story progresses.

Author's Response:

I'm glad you found it realistic (well, as realistic as it could be). And yes, even though Edward was all for taking care of Eric, he's not going to walk away unscathed himself. That is the main reason he follows the Cullen's vegetarian diet - he does not want to be a monster and in this scene, he was. Thank you for your input and for reading and reviewing!

 
Summary: Feature

Blood & Lust banner

EPOV. Edward is having trouble balancing his urges for Bella's blood and Bella's body before the wedding. What started out as a simple "Practice Fic" has become a retelling of BD from EPOV that lets us see just how much he struggles for control at every turn.

Warning: Edward's got issues. Some dark images and angst, but nothing too bad and quickly giving way to steamy goodness.

Oh, it was beautiful and it was hot.  What more can we really ask for? 

I really enjoyed the line about the hungry baby worshippers.  So true, so true...

LOL, I thought it was appropriate!

Thank you!

Duh-duh-DUH!!!  I'm so glad I missed this chapter the first time around, because now I get to go directly to the next!  Yays for me.

Great chapter, tho!  Thank you for it.

Haha, you are very welcome! Thank YOU for the lovely review!

::sigh:: And the drama, it goes to eleven.  If only they'd done research ahead of time.  Ah well.  So it goes.

I shall bide my time and think happy thoughts. :)

Excellent chapter.



Author's Response:

This drama goes all the way to eleven. haha!

Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it!

Were you wrong to get a little emotional?  No. I did.  In fact, when you ended it the way you did, my first action was to clutch my chest and my first words were 'Ah, _fuck_'

So there. :P  And :) for good measure.  Please do update soon...  Your version is exquisite.

...Gah. For a moment I had this vision of him doing compressions for three solid days, and the angst and torture of a sort of vampire-zombie hybrid that she would turn out to be...



Author's Response:

What a horrible thought! But he would have done it!

I'm so glad you felt the same way I did about this ending. I swear, it was like I was writing it against my will. The sadder it got I was like, "No, now that's enough Edward... no, that's REALLY enough.... DAMMIT, knock it off!"

Thank you so much for your review.

What a beautiful chapter. :) Thank you so much for writing it. I particularly enjoyed Edward getting all sassy during his rough and dirty round of sex with Bella. That was yummy...



Author's Response:

Ahh yes... Sassyward!! One of my faves, too!

Thank you so much for the review, it means more to me than you'll ever know!

Summary:

Bella is a 25 year old Editor's assistant in New York City. She has been a casual observer in life, never really actively participating in it.

Edward is a 25 year old tattoo artist who enters Bella's life and knocks it off its hinges.

Will Edward be able to open Bella up to life and all it has to offer, or will she shut him out and return to watching the world happen around her?

(Thanks to Shug for the AWESOME banner!!)

Huh. This is a very interesting beginning.  I'm glad to have found your story, and I look forward to continuing it.  Thank you for writing.

Date: December 05, 2009 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2 - Reality Check

A nice chapter. It was good to see that Edward felt that irrational pull as well, and isn't simply a manwhore.  Note that I'm not ruling that option out for him; we don't know him well enough yet.  But it's clearly not *just* that. :)

Very interesting.  I look forward to seeing what you'll do with it.

Are we to assume that the poor individual who was tragically struck down outside of Bella's nonprofit, was, in fact, Mr. E. Cullen?



Author's Response:

Oh dear.  Three months ago he stopped coming?  Would that be because he got hit by a car outside of Bella's office when the story first opened?

 

Damn, damn, damn.

 

Please, please, please let this story have a happy ending.  Please?

I'm still really enjoying this story, though i worry about the fact that Edward hasn't caught up with her in her own time, yet.  Is he in a coma somewhere?  Is he going to wander out of the hospital just in time to see Jacob get handsy with Bella? Eeek...
