Oh crap. NO!!!!

Author's Response: *wide evil grin* It will be better soon. ;)

Good questions, all, Spike!

Author's Response: Hee, hope the answers are as good. ;)

Ha ha, so much fun to see Aimee get hers.

Author's Response: Glad to read you enjoyed that. ;)

LOL Poor Spike. The guy can't catch a break lol. That was a great scene. Aimee it seems is starting to atone...against her will of course lol.

Author's Response: Yep, poor Spikey, and he still has to go through quite a lot. *lol* Yeah, very against her will, but I don't think she really has a saying here. Thanks!

Spuffy is getting heated lol! Woo hoo! And that Aimee...can't wait for all her sins to catch up with her.

Author's Response: Hee, yes, not too heated though, yet. ;) Oh, Aimée's sins are catching up with her very soon. Thank you!

Oh, I do not trust Aimee at all! That little...lol. How sweet that Spike ran all the way to see Buffy...awww....:)

Author's Response: Oh, you do very well by not trusting Aimée. ;) Hee, thank you so much for reviewing!

Well, slowly but surely ;)...

So Buffy is determined to help Willliam to be recognized in his rights as son of Don Rodrigo De Alcazar. To listen to her, it seems so easy. I fear our girl sees soon the task will be... difficult?

Aunt Darla, to begin with... A great problem. She is not precisely happy with the fact that William is the new administrator. I doubt she would jump of joy to call him "stepson"...

Angel... Difficult to say... He may be happy to learn that William and him are brothers. But learning that William is the real heir of their father? Wait and see...

Joyce. Mommy dearest. Desperatly attached to the Agreements (with a big "A") . Even if William is definitively recognized as legitimate son of Rodrigo, Joyce can perfectly keep on seeing him only as a bastard. And married with her daughter? Mommy dearest would not be so happy.

It will be hard to wait til the next chapter ;)!

Little Aimée seems to have big problems herself, too big for this little head... But it doesn't mean she can't cause big problems to other people.

I see a big dark cloud upon our William and Buffy... Little Aimée, yes, but big shadow...

I also see another cloud, THE explanation to William about the past engagement between Buffy and Angel... Ouch...

Tempest? Storm? Hurricane? That's the question.

What can I say? I can't wait the next chapter :)!

Author's Response: Oh, yes, Buffy is very determined to help him be recognized as a De Alcazar, and even if it might look difficult, it might be easier than they all expect. ;) *hint hint*

Yep, Darla can be a problem, but there are some situations that might ease her into an accepting mood.

You'll find out very soon of Angel's reaction to William being his brother. He won't find out he's the heir yet, though, not until don Rodrigo gets back into the picture. ;)

Joyce, you're so very right about her. ;) Although it won't be her decision to make, not really.

Little Aimée's problems are just starting, she is going to have more in her plate than she'd ever be able to handle, but as you say she will still cause problems to others.

And you're so very right over the big dark Aimée-shaped cloud. ;)

That other cloud won't come into play until after Buffy and Spike get married, though. *more hints*

Tempest, storm, hurricane? Maybe all of the above? *wide evil grin*

Thank you so much for reviewing, sorry for the delay in answering and posting. *hugs*

Awww... what a sweet reunion Spike and Buffy are having, I just loved their conversation. Buffy is right, Joyce probably will see the resemblance between Spike and his father immediately, the upcoming confrontation is gonna be amazing. Fantastic chapter!

Author's Response: Aww, thank you so much, darling! The upcoming confrontation is coming soon to an archive near you, we just have to get some things out of the way and hopefully it will be in chapter 37. Thanks again and sorry for the delay in posting and in answering your review. *hugs*

what is Aimee up to! It can never by anything good............How will William break the news. I hope that it is Joyce that notices the resemblance. Looking forward to another chapter.

Author's Response: That's the million dollar question! Hee, and yes, she's never up to anything good. ... Oh, don't worry, anyone that knew Rodrigo will recognize William as soon as he sees him. ;)

Thanks for your review and sorry for taking so long in answering it. *hugs*

Loved the update. Gotta love maria. Just love the way things are evolving so far. I'm sure we all understand about RL. Or we should. You are writing this for our reading pleasure. Is there anything I can do for your muse? I absolutely love this story. Thanks again for the update.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you love María because you'll be seeing a whole lot more of her soon. Sorry for the long wait, but I think my muse finally decided to come back from vacation. *crosses fingers*

A little moment of peace, I am sooo relieved that William and Buffy have made the things clear :)

A little moment of peace, after a tempest, but before a storm?

Little Aimée gets a lot of surprises here... learning that William is Angel's friend and the new administrator of Campo Real !

I would be not surprised if the girl, after her "faint", begins to make plans, thinking of how it would be easy to have an affair with William, who is now litterally in the place, near her.

William is right to see how Aimée could be dangerous. A good reason for him to tell Buffy all the truth about his affair with Aimée, before the girl could do it.

I wonder how William will react, learning that Buffy was supposed to marry Angel. Hope that our boy will not have crazy ideas in mind, as Buffy not loving him really, and being with him only to search some comfort. William is clever than that, isn't he ;)? And not blind, too, like some half brother we all known...

I can wait the next chapter... The face of Darla in front of William... The face of "Mommy Dearest" Joyce too, (life is made of little pleasures). And I have almost forgotten: the face of Snyder :)!

Thanks :)!



Author's Response: *lol* Yes, they made some things clear, but there are still some that they hadn't addressed, yet. *weg*

Hee, you are too clever, my dear. ;)

Oh, Aimée's surprises are just beginning. And yeah, she might make plans, but that doesn't mean that they'll come to fruition. ;)

Oh, yep, I agree, he should tell Buffy, but we'll see what he decides very soon.

Oh, William, William, he is very clever for some things and then he lets jealousy gets in the way of the things he knows. *hint hint* ;)

I hope you like Darla and Joyce's reaction (and maybe even Snyder's) to William's reappearance in chapter 36.

Thank you for your review, cariño!

very cool chapter and I hope the revelations do not stop there..........spike needs to tell her everything about Aimee because she is not going away...............

Author's Response: Oh, you're very right, she's not going away...yet. ;) Thanks for reviewing!

Hmm I love this story but I would love to see a real old fashioned gun fight Clint Eastwood style.

Author's Response: lol, there'll be one or rather several, maybe not exactly gun fights as such, but a duel for sure. Thanks for reviewing!
