It will take Buffy awhile to get over the trauma of the rapes. Good thing she has Spike to help her. Can't wait for more!

Author's Response: The connection with Spike is what keeps Buffy from going off the deep end. More soon, I cross my heart! :) Thank you for reviewing again, honey!!! *hugs*

This is the best new story going - love it! Please make him earn her; so many make her too easy too fast.

Author's Response: Thanks for the wonderful compliment, iris!! There are definitely issues that have to be cleared up before anything more intimate happens between them, of that I assure you! I really hope you'll like the next chapter, and thanks for reviewing again, honey!!! :))

This time I've got the email from EF 4 minutes earlier. ;))
Buffy thought Why should I care if Spike made them all his dinner and then Spike noticed that She had smelt different for a second. Still sweet and alluring but there was a waft of decay corrupting it. It brushed Spike's nostrils so swiftly he almost thought he had imagined it. Mmmmh that's maybe connected to the alien presence within her. If that is so the presence seems to be a bad thing. (And it seems the presence is talking to Buffy now.)

Good decision that Spike made, not to kill his victims. That will go better with Buffy (not sure how she would take it in the end to know that Spike kills).

Makes me wonder if what Buffy is is what she has inside her or if that's just a thing because she is still suffering from being raped and tortured.
Thank God Spike came back (I assume it was him, opening the door).
~Till next time!

Author's Response: Woo, points for you cordykitten! :D It is connected, and yep, it's not good at all, and since you've wondered so nicely, I'll tell you that what Buffy saw in the mirror was not her, it was the demon inside her rearing up its ugly head. The longer it's inside her, the bigger influence it gains, it feeds off her suffering so it's got plenty to eat. They have to get it out, the question is how! And you're right again, it was Spike! :D Loved the review!!! :)

i have to say that initially I wasn't sure if I'd be able to read this story. I really not care much for stories that focus on Buffy as a rape or otherwise abused victim. However, now that she is out of there, I do admire the way you aren't just bypassing the emotional impact on Buffy. In "real-life" this experience would probably result in life-long lasting emotional destruction which obviously wouldn't serve this story. But I'm glad that you arern't just skipping the very real post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms that would be a natural result. And....was that Dawn by any chance? Looking forward to more!

Author's Response: I try as hard as I can to feel what it would be like to be in her skin. Though I can only imagine it, I'm trying not to sweep it under the rug. She won't ever be the same, won't be able to be normal, and I'm not planning on pulling out the everything's alright with the world card 'cause I don't think it would ring true. The only thing that's saving her from going off the deep end is the connection with Spike, the feeling that she's not alone. I'm really happy you gave this fic a chance, and I'll try hard not to disappoint you!! It wasn't Dawn... just a random girl. :) Thanks so much for your wonderful review, Sibb, I really apprecite it!!!! :)
