interesting...i'm glad that william doesn't really love dru in this...or does he later? Hopefully not. Now that he says he wants to go home...he will soon realize that he can't go back...only forward. It would be interesting to see if you make William leave dru and be a vampire in sorrow for a hundred years alone...or does he give in and just accept that Dru is in his life now. The possibilities are endless here. I was really hoping to see something about Buffy here but i'll wait. So is this the last chapter of the past then? I mean or is there flashbacks? Once you go into the presend day stuff will you stay? I kind of want to see the evolution of Spike...well, your take on Spike and how if he never forgets Elizabeth OR just goes on killing and trying to forget. Update soon. PLEASE!!! This weekend or something? Can you give us a ballpark of when the last part will be?

Author's Response: Part Two will be exclusively in the past, no alternations between time periods. Part Three will be exclusively in the present day. I hope that clears things up? I'm very glad you like this story so well. I am going to try to update soon, but since I haven't even started on Chapter Twenty-nine yet, I can't say when it will be ready. I'm glad to hear you are anticipating it, though. Thanks so much for your feedback!

this is very upsetting. it pains me to say this, but i can no longer enjoy this story. i can't read about sweet william as a killer and with drusilla, it's too hard to get through. i might continue once you start writing about buffy in the present, hopefully that wouldn't be too long of a wait. i was hoping that the last chapter would have been the end of the past, that we wouldn't have to witness william after he was turned. i don't know why, but i was thinking it would just be buffy and spike from now on. this really sucks, i always look forward to the updates of this story, but now i'll only feel dread as long as he's with drusilla. i can't stand her and never will, but i do wish you luck with the rest of it. you are a great writer and i will miss this story dearly.

Author's Response: Well, all I can say is I'm sorry you feel that way, tasha. However, I refuse to change the direction of this story for anyone. William's relationship with Dru is pure canon...as is his birth as a killer. Without this, there would be no Spike. Let us not forget...Spike was once the "scourge of Europe.". As I said it my author's note, this story is and will always remain a romance at heart. But it is not a simple, one-shot fluff piece. True love is not that simple, and I'm not planning to simplify so that people can get their spuffy fix more quickly. If that loses me a reader or two, then so be it. But I am very sorry to hear that you won't be seeing it through to the end. I think you would have been pleasantly surprised. Thank you for your feedback.

You are brilliant! Your story is very descriptive and thorough. Its like watching a movie, im so caught up with it!

Please dont take too long to update again!

Author's Response: Hopefully, not, Ochit. But with the muse, you never can tell. I'm glad you liked the chapter. Thanks so much for telling me so! :)
