Summary: Life, freedom, feelings. There was no place for them here. This was hell, and she its most valued possession. Buffy's life takes an unexpected turn after being kidnapped, and as the line between sanity and madness starts to blur, the opportunity of freedom will present itself. Will she find enough will to live to take it, or will she take the easy way out and give in to the pain consuming her soul? And what does one ruthless vampire thirsty for her life have to to do with all this? When their paths cross perhaps they'll both realize that love can appear when you least expect it.

Okay I really couldn't stomach a lot of what you wrote. I read chapters 1-5 (painfully closing my eyes at times) and skipped right to chapter 7, eager to see what the conclusion was for this fic.

I think the ending was VERY appropriate. Though it is difficult for most authors to write sad endings, I think that it's unrealistic to expect one, even if the entire story has lead to nothing but a sad ending. I commend you for your outstanding ability to conclude such a dark story in such a bittersweet way.

Though I will probably never read anything else of yours (my apologies but it's not quite my cup of tea. xD) I do want to say that regardless of some of the nasty reviews you have received, you should feel nothing but proud. Some people feel the need to be completely rude, even when they have no business to. Ignore them and continue writing. It may not be MY style but that doesn't mean its good. Cuz it sure as hell is.

Disturbing work, but OUTSTANDING.

Author's Response: Thank you so much for your support. I really appreciate it. This is the darkest thing I have written and I don't think I'll delve that deep again! LOL! The muse went a little crazy when I saw the evil twin prompt on nekid_spike. Chapter six wasn't at all gruesome so go back and read if you skipped it! Hee! I totally understand that you don't want to read more of my work - it isn't for everybody - like I can't read het porn - but if you're not adverse to a bit of Spander try Concentrate, Spike on my lj - Angel helps ghost!Spike with a bit of a problem! Not dark at all! Thank you once again for being so supportive. I'm planning a lighter fic so maybe take a look at that when I post ? If anything I post here is dark I will label accordingly like I did this one :D
