I love this confident, shrewd Spike, every bit the master vampire and now he's there to help. Hope you'll be updating again very soon. You know we want to see the mating ritual and how he's going to blow her mind. Very exciting fic, thanks 7.

Please write more. I love this last line. So are you going to tell us what Spike means? Hope to see more soon!!

wow...a lot for the super-friends to take in, isn't it? wonder how angel's gonna take it..and buffy seems more than willing to go along with it all, even though it's relatively sudden...another excellent chapter, looking forward to more :)
more is coming, i promise. Just gotta upload them from the old address (i don't have any copies, new computer), fix all the errors from the server, and put them in the submission box and wait for approval.

Xander needed to be put in his place. Love the way Spike is straightforward in going after what he wants!

Very nice indeed, i disagree with the other reviewers that say that this Spike is OCC. Spike is love's bitch, that doesn't mean that he lets himself be pushed around, he loved Dru but stood up to her, he loved Buffy and many times called her on her mistakes. If Spike had known what he wanted in the earlier seasons then this could have happend. There are more then enough lame stories that have a weak and pathetic Spike wich i do consider OCC.

Keep up the good work.
i agree. This is before Lovers Walk, and it's the fierce strong Spike that we saw in Season 2 really. Also, there are some reasons that he has made the decision now, which will become clear in later chapters.

Spike has become bolder since his last visit. This is what he want's, but I'd be worried about the scoobies and Willow. There's still so much that can go wrong for him. I'm glad that he claimed her though. Love the way he seems to just magically appear and disappear, lends to him being more powerful and mysterious. Excellent fic, thanks.

You believe in dominant male figures and think Spike has that kind of personality? Oh boy, prepare for many reviewers to give you a hard time because they seem to have blocked out Spike's less fluffy puppy side. It's odd, I like it when Spike takes control sometimes (submissive Spike can be hot too), but I have no tolerance for that in real life. I know it's not my place, but I don't think letting "your man" be the boss of you is a good thing. Girl Power. Rowrrr! LOL.
*shrugs* not for everyone i guess. i like my lot very much but it's not for everyone. and i think that later in the story i show fluffier spike. just hold on for a while.

very good read, thank you. bonus praise for angel being beaten, major praise bonus, including kissing of feet, if you dust him.
would it surprise you that i am not an Angel hater? i just don't like him with Buffy. And this is what works in the confines of this story. But you're gonna be happy with the upcoming chapters.

Wow, looks like Spike and Angelus had personality transfers. I really don't understand what you're doing but I hope it works. At the moment, it's painfully OOC and the plot is rather cliched.
i don't believe that Spike here is Out Of Character. This isn't whupped puppy Spike from Season 5, this is the Spike that shows up in Season 2, who is strong, confident, and very sure of himself. Fresh from the world, hasn't been wrecked by the Initiative and all those problems Spike. i think that this is what Spike would do IN THIS SITUATION which has NOT BEEN FULLY REVEALED at this point.

Your first fic? It really starts off well. I like and will be waiting impatiently for updates. Keep up the good work.

Intriguing story yet not a very likeable Spike. I'm not sure how one can ever trust emotions that have been coerced. Then again, maybe for this Spike control over her is enough. Looking forward to where you go with this...

A really good story so far. I'm excited to see how the plot will progress. Please update soon and look forward to reading more.

grrr...i dont like the way he's treating her, very frustrating..i'd love to see her get the upper hand at some point, even briefly...excellent fic, very intriguing...loving it and looking forward to more :)
Spike? okay, i believe in dominant male figures, that's what i prefer (my own relationship has a dominant male figure) and that's how i see Spike's personality. i'm posting more as we speak.

I like your story. The plot is good. Potential for many twists and turns. I have been looking for a story with claiming and a dominant spike in the plot. There just seems to be too many stories of a beaten down spike with buffy playing the eternal &^&$&^!
Do you have a beta? I did notice a lot of typo errors. Kinda hard to read smoothly when tripping over misspelled or not completely finished words. Not flameing you!!
just trying to be helpful. I do like the story and hope to read more. I am very curious as to where you will take it. Can I make a request? Please have a purring spike!! I love purring vampires! Keep up the good work.
this story is already finished and done. it's been moved from a lot of servers so there are some errors, mainly from where letters overlapped. and yes, i like dominant Spike too, it'll come out more later.

This is quite good. I'm anxious to read what Spike has to say to Giles and the gang.
chap 4 is what you've been waiting for (i think)

chap 2         
Oh yeah, it is Spike's right to tell her. I figure there's going to be a challenge at some point. Angel's not going to give up just like that. Wondering what magic he used to make it different. This is good, thanks 7.

oh this should be an interesting conversation...wonder how she'll react to what he has to say :)

Good chapter, it's getting really interesting now lol. *whispers, but read over it again*

He did something he rarely does and used magic! Loved that he claimed her, haven't read a story in a while with a claim as her enemy. Can't wait for Angel to see it, it'll freak him out. Love the beginning. This should be good, thanks.

It's a really good start and I like it and I am going to read the next chapters too. I don't want to be a "spoilsport", but I think you should re-read that chapter, I think that some words were "scrambled" while posting, probably from your writing program to the posting form,I don't know, like "her body twistagaiagainst his" "protective mode w, al, although" "she needed to wthrothrough" I hope you don't mind me saying that, that doesn't change that I like the story and the plot.
i've fixed this chap, and yes, i noticed. it's because the site this was posted on changed servers, and where there were letters overlapping there came problems (often they're just random glitches). i'll get around to the rest of them in time.

Good start! Nice brisk pace, good characterizations, and the POV flowed back and forth very smoothly. It would be an easier read without so many typos though.

Great start Spikegirl. You're a natural.
