This is an intriguing tale.  I wanted to say thanks for writing it, even if it remains a permanent WIP.

Well done :)

Well, I remembered some of the details of this story from the first time I read it, and that's saying something. Not exactly sure where you are going with it now, but that's a good thing. Please, please do your best to finish it for us?

well this should be an interesting conversation...can't wait to see how it goes....and thanx for the swift update, i'm so liking this story :)

so angel's about to become human then? hmmm...interesting...good chapter...please tell me you're still working on this one...its so good, i'd love to read more soon please :)

Just caught up with this one - a top read!

your story is soooo good! I can't wait for more!

Good... no Angelus.

Yikes! I wondered vaguely about the soul issue but... Wonderful twist and, together with all the plans to get Bell out from W&H, a fantastic chapter.

Thanks ever so and looking forward to more.

it's all starting to come together, isn't it? great chapter :)

great chapter

Will Tara and Willow come to LA to help Bell? Will Buffy get a Scooby gang? More story please.

No, this isn't me reading your story. Nope. *shakes head* I'm actually writing my paper. *nods* Gah! Love this and am waiting *cough*impatiently*cough* for the next part. Quit teasing already! ^_^

Fantabulous chapter! Everything fit together hand in glove. Wonderful flow and oodles of plot. Yummy stuff, hun.

Can't help myself - more soon please.

great chapter, seems she's already learning to do as that girl suggested...great job, pet :)

I've been following this fic for a while and I just wanted to let you know how much I'm enjoying it. This Buffy and Spike are awesome! I'm looking forward to how it all comes together.

That was an interesting chapter! Will this poor captive girl be able to help Buffy? Mysterious mind-talking there. More story please.

Delicious! I love the layers of plot that you constantly thread into this - almost as much as I appreciate the speedy update! LOL

Will be keeping eyes open for more of this - I'm so hooked. Thanks ever so.

great chapters

hmmm..don't trust hanks okay-ness with them together....wonder what he's up to...good chapter :)

Yummy! That was a very pheromone (Lord! I hope I spelt that right!) driven chapter. the more I read of this the more I feel for Buffy in such a conflicted life.

Do hope to read more soon. Thanks ever so.

Oh, don't let him go all Angelus on her. Cordy's good for him. She's never been afraid to slap him upside the head when he's being an idiot, or taking himself too seriously.

Hmmmm! Are we going to have Angelus / Cordelia smut? And I do mean Angelus. Will Buffy be able to handle the Wolfram & Hart meeting? More story please.

wow....if buffy knows it, she wont have to worry about her dad...she can stop him from hurting her...excellent chapter :)

I loved the part where you wrote that Spike fell in love with Buffy when she killed the Kareen demon. Great update.

Cracking chapter. Loads of lovely plot to feed upon with that delicious undertone of debauchery. Yummy.

Look forward to more when it appears - will always be reading whenever. Thanks ever so.

Thanks for the great chapter! Buffy's status in her home is so precarious. Will Cordelia help Angelus lose his soul? Does he have one? More story sooner please.

something tells me she wont be thrilled about that when she's feeling a bit better..great chapter though :)

Oh. My. God. Fuck that! Why the hell should Spike get away with that?! That asshole! He practically raped her! I mean, sure, she enjoyed it but did he have to be such as ass about it?!?! She's going through something and learning stuff about her past and here's Spike being a dick because she decided to freeze him so she could be alone for a while. Please, oh PLEASE let Buffy extract some vengence on him in the next chapter, please?!?! (Wow, I kinda sounded like Anya a bit there, lol). Don't get me wrong, I'm all for the Spuffy lovin' and always have been. But when Spike treats her like that, thats taking it too far. Lol, wow I can rant and rave with the best of 'em. Sorry if I sound like a bitch, I just hate it when Buffy or women in general are demened in any way. Just know that I love your fic, except for the whole Spike-being-an-asshole-thing.

Believe me when I say I am definitly still following this story. I check all the time to see if you've updated it. I love it. This chapter was no exception. Can't wait for more!

Woohoo! Way to go Spike! It seems to be time for her to come to grips with her slayer status. Spike and Giles need to help her find a plan to stay safe from her father. Thanks for coming back to this story.

great chapter

So happy to get more of this fascinating story. The sex weren't bad either! LOL

Looking forward to the 'coming soon' bit - hope it will.

Thanks so much.

I'm so glad to read your update. This is such a good story. Can't wait to read more.

whoa...wonder who's in for the worse deal in this scenario...spose i'm about to find out :)

Still very much with you here... Nice contrast between scared little rich girl and kick-ass hard case for Buffy :)

Will Spike get to Buffy in time to help her with the demons? Can he convince her to come back with him and talk to Giles?

whoa...i'm not liking this magic power trip thing she's got going on, a bit too 'dark-willowy' for my liking...great chapter though :)

I really like this story. It's very different. Can't wait for more.

Lies, damned lies, and families. The tension's definitely mounting, along with the angst. I'm still reading!

Yay! You're back. I was afraid this story had gone deadfile.

great chapter. more questions then answers, more please!

Yikes! Did Buffy just start to believe her mother when she saw Giles? I hope the spell breaks by itself and Spike and Giles are not stuck there for too long. More story soon please.

wow, yeah, i'm still hooked...gotta see why she recognizes him...great chapter :)

I'm just catching up on this story, trying to read it in one sitting - which is like consuming a rich dessert! I love this line - which says so much -
“We all have decisions to make, Watcher,” he said finally. “To break, be broken. All of us are weak, brittle like somewhere. Love’s the place where I choose to crack.”
Excellent imagery! I'm off to read more , I have three more chapters to go so far. THanks!

That's cruel!! I have to have more of your story. Please update soon.

Oh my god - what? Don't leave us hanging!!!

Still here and waiting for more! That was a short chapter and ended with a cliffie.

OMG! You little tease! :P Geez! And they call ME bad! I'd ask (read: beg) for more, but I know you're off soon...so have fun! ^_^

And now for the training montage...? Kidding. Loved the trip down memory lane, and Spike's confessional gave me shivers. Please keep going!

oh good...now giles is in with them...great can't wait for the next chappie :)

Oooh, loving this dark dastardly plot. And the smut was scrumptious too *cheer*

Great update!

OMG! What is the filthy Hank going to make her do for W&H? Spike and Giles have their work cut out for them if they're to protect Buffy from Hank. Love this story and hope you give us more soon.

I love it... and you're especially good at the NC17 parts. I like the touch at the end with Giles' glasses being destroyed. I like him being led around LA by William the Bloody... funny.

wow, they're so in trouble...they just dont know it yet...this is getting seriously scary :)

Just read this up to date and I love it. Very fast paced and I like the relationship between Buffy and Spike. I even like the realism of Bufyf wanting her father's validation even though he's such an evil man.

This is a good story lots of action and a truly dastardly villain. More please.

oh *this* should get interesting! can't wait for more!

Extremely original, and very well written. And yes, you're evil, but evil people get to have more fun *wink*

Best totally AU I've read in a while! Very well woven story.

Oh! You weren't kidding about the cliffy! Gah... Like a page out of my book. ^_^ I love how this is unfolding, and good to see Angel getting in the thick of things...

wonder when she'll actually meet up with giles...great chapter, as usual :)

Yikes! Fascinating story! A slayer with magic powers and an evil father. What's Giles going to do that won't kill him? How will Spike protect her from her father and the council? More story please.

excellent read so far. i really like the different twists you've placed on each character. can't wait for more :D

how could he subject her to that? her father is so evil!! and the one she thought was her best friend...i hope she can still trust spike, though..great chapter :)

i hope that's a natural exhasuted sleep, not someone putting a spell on her or something....gotta see what's next ;)

i hope giles will turn out to be on their side...hope they dont get caught, cause something tells me her daddy would not be pleased

okay so why is everything differnt now?? gotta see this conversation :)

another great chapter...the plot thickens :)

so buffy can do magic too, huh? her dad's seriously scary..can't wait to see what happens next :)

so does she not know that she's a slayer? does her dad not know? i'm a bit confused, but i'm sure it'll all be clear later on :)

great start, i'm fascinated...gotta see where this goes :)

great chapter

This really, an interesting take on the spuffyverse, good job! I'll be looking out for the next chapter!

Dear GAWD, that was HOT!!!!!! And what exactly is evil Daddy Dearest up to? Bad Hank! I think the old man needs a spanking of the unfun kind.

You are evil to leave us there!!! This is a great story and I really like your original story line. Please don't make us wait for an update.

Aww, you left us there? what kind of sadist are you? Gimme gimme gimme more!

Oh yeah. Evil cliffie. How could you?! ***sniffle*** Just when things were getting really, really good, you stopped! **pout** Want more....please? Seriously though, I like this. It's a very unusual twist, unique. Can't wait to see what happens next. *cough*smut*cough*. Hope you update soon, dear.
