Author's Response: Thank you so much, it means so much to me that you're still reading. Makes me so happy :) I'll update as soon as I can!

Hope Lily's dad gets what's coming to him for what he's done.

Author's Response: I hope so too :) Thanks for reviewing!

Poor lily. My heart goes to lily. I hope her dad gets what is coming to him.
I love the way Spike cares about his students. Like he sees them as his own kids. Spike is really such a sweetie with a good heart. Maybe, Spike can take Lily. LOL If not hopefully he would be able to find her a good home.

Author's Response: You don't know how right you are Penny but that's all I can say right now ;) I'm glad you like the way Spike cares, I was a bit worried I made him too different but I wanted him to show a more sweet side in this story. Thanks so much for reading!

THat bastard I hope he rots in hell for treating a child with such ill respect and abuse. He doesn't deserve to be gifted with children if that the way he treats them....I hope when he ends up in priso the tell the other inmates he a child abuser and they give him the hiding he's needs every single day.....

I'm still loving this even though this last chapter was very sad ..... Jeanette

Author's Response: Thank you so much, I'm glad you still like it. I thought it was pretty difficult to write because I know it's hard to read about children being abused. I'm not too fond of it either but it was necessary for the story. You just put down everythin I felt for her dad, I felt just the same thing and I wrote it lol. Thanks for reading!!

poor lily, she's been through hell. hope the social workers sort it out quickly. loved the update looking forward to more

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'll update as soon as possible!

Poor Lily, I can't believe her father did that to her. Thank god Buffy and Spike found out, hopefully they'll be able to get her away from that abusive bastard. Great update, but as always your chapters leave me wanting more, and soon. :)

Author's Response: Lol, well that was my intention :) But you will get more soon, I promise! Just talked to my beta, she'll email chapter 23 tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for reviewing!
