I had decided to reread the last chapter to remind myself of what happened and saw the added part. I was wondering why it sounded new to me! I thought that I had accidentally skipped it the first time. It really does make the whole chapter flow better. And I like that it gives us a little glimpse at what Buffy's life was like before Spike. 

OMG! I did not see that coming with Hank. And it was awesome that you used it to make Buffy question her connections to her vampires. And now Dawn is here! I'm so happy that we finally get to see her in the mix, especially with her shocking connection to Spike. Argh! I just can't wait for more!

I SOOOOO did not see that twist coming.  I am happy that Darla was home when Hank showed his true colors.  Just think in such a short period of time Buffy has not only met a vampire and discovered that she is a vampire's mate.  Her best friend became a vampire years ago and she didn't know during her recurring visits.  And now her father. I am just glad that she was able to pull it together enough to get a way from him and that Darla was there.  Spike was just being himself with not wanting to be turned away completely but Darla is helping him learn Buffy's ways.  And now to TOP IT OFF, Dawn was the one that Spike helped?  I know that he didn't want anyone to know but that just might prove to Buffy that Spike is changing and changing for the better.

Love, love, love! Thank you for the update.
