I think Buffy didn't really catch it (maybe only at first) that Spike got jealous when she was calling her husband. They both get used to being together without limits. I wonder who will miss it most - and if this makes Buffy's decision whom to choose quicker. Thanks for the update!

Author's Response: You're right. I made her oblivious on purpose. By the way who said Elizabeth was making a choice between Rupert and Spike. Did I miss something? LOL Thanks for the review

Mmm reunion sex... It's really weird to read an argument without actual dialogue, lol. But I love this story anyway. I hope Buffy figures out what she wants soon. =)

Author's Response: I know ain't it the best..lol. You're the thrid person who has said that about the who being told the dialogue. It was something that I wanted to explore with the story but I'm glad it hasn't turned you off from reading it. Buffy knows what she wants she's just being Buffy, Queen of Denial as someone put it. Thanks for the review

Me thinks a Rupert might be back sooner.........me thinks Buffy needs to reeval her wants and needs....Spike, oh poor Spikey, oh so much Love's bitch..........Lovely hot chapter

Author's Response: You are so right. Glad you liked the chapter. Thanks for the review.

Bless you! Okay, maybe that's a bit naughty of me to say 'bless' you since this is an affair, but... I'm glad that Cecily turned out to be a bitch! Yay! Great job and yes, Buffy needs a wakeup call, but so does William. After all, he's playing with a married woman and she never hid that. Okay, thay being said! Yeah! They're still together. I hope, really that Rupert is having an affair of his own and will let Buffy go, gracefully. Luv, Spuf

Author's Response: Thanks for the awesome feedback. Not that I approve of the affair, its just Spike and Buffy and you want them to be together no matter what. We'll see what happens in the last three chapters. When the cats away the mice will play but there is always a trap or two lying around...;) wink

Amazing chapter. So passionate. Have a feeling that after this two weeks is up, Buffy won't be able to say she doesn't love Spike...but who knows with the Queen of Denial. Looking forward to the next few chapters.

Author's Response: A lot of things are going to happen in the next few chapters. I'm almost positive there is going to be at least three more. She loves him but she wouldn't be Buffy is she didn't deny herself. Thanks for the review.

Wow, I don't even know where to begin! First, I'm so happy that Buffy went over to his apartment when Cecily was there, and I was even happier to see that Cecily left- that was lovely! I was a little frightened by how rough William seemed to be for a moment there, but his sweetness definitely compensated for that. Incredibly hot sex scene, by the way:) You've always written the hottest smut! I'm glad William told her he loves her, and it's awesome that Rupert will be gone for a while. I can't wait to read what's to come!

Author's Response: Allison I had to get rid of Cecily. I refuse and I repeat refuse to let her have William. I do like my sadistic William. Note through out the chapters he does tend to throw things, smash things, and manhandle Elizabeth but I also make sure to balance it out with his tender and sensitive side. Besides, Elizabeth likes it because he's like that in bed. Although William gets off on it more...lol. I love the smut thats why the chapter is so damn long. I don't know when to stop..lol. I just want you to know its reviews like this that brought such a quick update and for once I don't dread writing the next couple of chapters. A lot of stuff is going to go down some good, some bad. Thanks for your review

I have been enjoying this story quite a bit, so please don't take this the wrong way, but I don't think this chapter is as well done as the previous chapters. I felt like I was reading a summary of conversation instead of the conversation itself. There was too much Elizaeth said and William said, but there was no actual conersation. The entire chapter felt a bit like a run on sentence. There was too much telling and not enough showing. This just doesn't seem up to the standards of the prevous chapters.

Author's Response: Thank you very much for the feedback. I knew this story would be a challenge to write when I chose this structure of writing it. You are correct about reading a summary of the conversation because I am offering you only a glimpse into their relationship. It would have been a hell of alot easier to write the entire story the other way and believe me there are times I wished I did...lol Maybe it is too much, I do find writing arguments with this structure a little difficult. I hope this chapter didn't turn you off the story. Again, thanks for the feedback.

Yeah *sigh* Eeew! about the graphics of Buffy and Giles (you know me); but she is married to him and cheating on him with William/Spike. Even if it feels for me as if she has cheated now on William/ Spike when sleeping with Giles. Not liking William with Cecily either; them going to a date (dinner). Well; that's me. And here I thought you would end the story; it get's more complicated instead.

Author's Response: No more Giles and Buffy hooking up I promise. As for Cecily and Spike I need her right now. I promise not to make it too complicated. I thought I was going to be ending the story soon and then something happen that always happens. The story started writing itself and I wound up writing an additional chapter. So I guess judging by your review this was not one of your favorite chapters..lol. Stay with me Cordy it will get better. We have some Angst, Confessions and Smut coming up.

Don't know how I missed this one. As always, you're writing is very...steamy...hot...erotic...pick a word. You need to be doing this for a living, sweetie.

Author's Response: I'm glad you like my stories and it this a chance. I like all those words and the review.

I feel bad for Buffy that Rupert ended up intercepting her before she could see Spike, and I'm kind of upset that Spike would arrange to have dinner with Cecily, but I guess I can't blame him- Buffy is married, after all. But I'm SO happy that Spike didn't pick up when Rupert redialed the number

Author's Response: All I can say Allison it that it had to happen. The next couple of chapters are going to be very interesting. Some major changes are about to occur in this relationship. Thanks for the review and your dedication to this story. Its always nice to know you'll and others leave me reviews and feedback. I really appreciate it.

Seeing Buffy with Giles is so incestuous. Creepy. lol I really hope Buffy realizes what she could have with Spike soon. Can't wait for the next chapter. =)

Author's Response: Believe me it was hard writing just that little bit. I was creeped out too but I had to show some interaction with Giles since her relationship with Spike does affect him. Spike's new 'friend' may just do the trick. Right now Buffy is enjoying her cake and eating it too. Thanks for the review

I hope this time Miss C heals his heart and he can move on from Buffy......for in this one.....I'm not sure I want her for him.......Let her stay in her stale marriage and think about what she lost...........I wouldn't be sad if no Spuffy ending, and yet still be happy if you did make it one.....not conflicted, just if Buffy does decided she wants Spike, now she has to work for it.....

Author's Response: I haven't decided if Miss C will have a major part in the story. However, it will cause a ripple in his relationship with Buffy. I had to give her and Giles some interaction althought it killed me to write it but he is her husband. Thanks for the feedback and the review.

Wow, you call that a porn/wo plot??? Anyway, I think you did a marvellous job in describing Buffy's marriage and therefore making it understandable what she's looking for with William. Please update soon!
