Author's Response: I am absolutely blushing to pieces... thank you so much for all of your kind words! I'm so thankful that you love the story, and that you consider it among the best you've read... that's high praise indeed, and I thank you for it. The emotional intricacies of B/S in Fear are interesting and challenging, yet so satisfying to write... I feel like I'm able to give them thefresh start that I always wanted to see them have. The emotions for all of the characters, really, are going to be a bit heightened throughout the story, just by the nature of the plot and the events that they've all been through; I'm glad that you're finding that element as interesting to read as I do to write it. Chapter 9 just went up... I hope that you enjoy it as well! Thank you again so much for reading and reviewing!

Aw! Just...AW!

Author's Response: So glad you're enjoying. I have to say it's a lot of fun playing with so many characters and so many different voices... feel like Sybil on occasion, but it's definitely in a good way. And as for Angel...well, things aren't going to go very well for him... Thanks for reading and reviewing!
