This is the thing I disliked about canonBuffy... for a woman so powerful and so amazingly adept at fighting, she's an ignoramous when it comes down to emotion and psychology. She just cannot conceptualise what Riley has been doing to these creatures. She only skims the surface, addresses what she 'sees' and is oblivious to what is going on under the skin...
People used to say it was her youth, something that would develop as her life experiences grew. I disagree. If anything, children have a greater sense of emotion and it becomes dampened as rationality and adult responsibility grows. Buffy just seems not to have a strong sense of emotional empathy.
Thankfully, her love of Spike, or her strength of feeling for friends and family, force her to see things she would normally not see.
i think this incident is going to be one of those shock experiences for her.
Great stuff, pet.

Poor, imasculated Spike. We gotta give that guy his *stones* back! Great update, though. Can't wait to see what you'll have in the next chapter. Could I hope for some serious Spuffy lovin'? Maybe some bitey, claim-type stuff in the not too distant future? Spike feeling more like a man because the Slayer is his now? Hmmm....please?

I love this story so far! Great original plot and love the fact that Spike and Buffy are together now. I'm sure that Buffy will play a major role in his recovery and I look forward to seeing how you're going to depict his road to recovery.

I hope Buffy helps Spike find himself again.
Very intense chapter.

God, Riley is a bastard. I know Buffy couldn't kill him, but I kept hoping one of his other slaves would turn on him and do it for her. Anything to spare Spike the pain he inflicted. But, maybe now Spike will be the one to give him his final just end.
And, now, maybe Buffy can help Spike get over his feelings of inadequacy? There has to be a way -- I don't like seeing him like this.
Can't wait for the next chapter.

I read all 44 chapters today - This is wonderful, beautiful and a passionate story, cant wait for more!

I just came across your fic and love it! Right now I'm on the edge of my seat! Please update soon!

Phew! Good that the soldiers were vampires. So Spike had a chance to fight with Buffy (and I thought first that the chip didn't function any longer but that was wrong *points to Riley*). If Riley has the same pistol as Spike did and he would blow his head... Spike would die. So I'll be eagerly waiting for an update here :)

Don't hesitate, Buffy! Get HIM... you promised Spike you'd get you both out of there. Don't let Riley take him! Pleeeeease!
OMG... I feel like I'm in the middle of the drama... need to lie down.

Well, it's been taking the other vamp's heads off, so Spike is also screwed. Now, if it's a metal bullet, and designed to go straight through, then he'll just have some major damage to heal from. Like if you shot a vamp with ammo from an AK-47 - the steel core round would just blaze a hole through and keep going because it's a fast bullet that's armor piercing. Whereas, a 44Mag is designed to mushroom out as the bullet travels and have stopping power. That would just take his head clean off.
I'm so disappointed in Buffy for not taking Giles or Xander with her, too, or at least having Spike standing at the door listening for Riley to possibly come home.
And she didn't even sense the vampire soldiers? how lame is she?

Interesting twist. Had me wondering if Riley was going to turn out to be a vamp too.

Oh Fuck no!
Oh, please no!
Save him, please save him, Buffy...
Wow, that kept me on the edge of my seat.
I'm beginning to wonder if Riley isn't a bit vampire himself?

What an exciting roller coaster of a chapter -- but what a cliffhanger!!!
More, soon, please!!!!

Oh, please don't leave me hanging.......thanks

Evil cliffhanger! But I love this chapter, and way to keep us on the edge of our seats with vampire guards. Gotta say, I didn't see that one coming. Ok, I'm hooked on this story-- an absolute junkie. Please update soon.

Date: 03/13/2006 - 07:17 pm Title: A Shocking Revelation
Oh holy crap!! You're too good with the cliffhangers... It's not fair I tell ya! Please hurry! *Whines* I wanna know what happens!

okay, i know i've never reveiwed before on this story but i just happened to be reading it and I had to review for this chapter. Please don't let spike go back to riley!!!!!!! I feel so sorry for him. This is not the spike that I'm use to and I guess it's a littel shocking to see him so scared of riley. Hopefully, spike will make him pay soon enough. loved it great job

Crap. I hate when a dozen, lethally armed, artificially strong men show up just as I'm about to stick it to my psycho husband, but before I let my vampire slave know that I love him.
But then again, a dozen men are no match for the Slayer and her vampire -- right? RIGHT?
Excellent chapter - can't wait for the next chapter. I'm dying here!
