I would have thought Angel would have denied to have killed Jenny. I wonder how much was for not being able to bring Angel back now and how much for protecting Buffy. (A Buffy that doesn't want to be protected by Angelus in this way.) Was it that what you were talking about? Buffy being addicted to biting? I read it often that biting triggers an orgasm so I didn't catch it. (IF it was what you're meant).

Author's Response: Angelus didn't bother to hide the fact that he killed Jenny, but yes, that would have been a good idea. Although he tells Buffy it was to protect her (and it partly was) you're right - it's mostly to protect himself from the re-souling spell. As for the blood addiction - well, there is no evidence in canon that supports it, although it sounds plausible and may be true. However, there is ample evidence that humans can be addicted to the vampire bite (a la Riley and the vampire brothel). And yes, Angel has helped Buffy to associate the bite and the onset of orgasm - whether one actually is a necessary cause of the other is also up for interpretation.

Oh! Angelus is EVIL! But then we knew that didn't we! I hope she gets to confer with Spike about what Angelus said. Glad to see the update.

Author's Response: But what he says is true. You might be surprised at what Spike has to say - remember this is season 2 and Spike is not even remotely near his own soul. Although he does have feelings for Buffy (whihc he tries to suppress) he still takes a vampire's view of things - i.e. missing the whole difference between right and wrong or any form of compassion. Let me know what you think. Will probably post next chappie Monday. Thanks.

great chapter
