The ending was absolutlely wonderful, I had the feeling Pawel was gonna bite the bullet, I felt so sorry for poor Elie. I'm glad though Gregorio stopped her trying to bring him back. Elie's interveiw with Leah was cool but it would've interesting to see her reation to Jacob imprinting on Reneesme. On another note there's a tremendous amount fun to be had with the idea of vampires going to AA-type meetings. Lastly, I was trying to figure out how Gregorio got that scar and THAT was not what I had come up with, was by any chance Monty Python and the Holy Grail an inspiration? Elie should definately track her kid down _!

Wow... you pretty much summed up everything about the twilight saga that got on my nerves. It really felt like Bella sold her soul and didn't even seem to pay the price for it, nice to see some consequnce in this. I also loved the intercation between Ward and Elie. He really did warn Bella being a vampire wasn't all it was cracked up to be. I can't wait to get to the ending!

Way to go Gregorio! I loved Elie's reaction to Jacob and Reneesme, she did kind of creep me out in the book. I also enjoyed her interaction with Bella, honestly Meyer could've created a slightly more likable antagonist. Aw well once a great story!

What an amazing story you've got going here _! Elie's probalbly one of the most complex OC's I've come across easily on par Master of the Boot's Joham Devenpeck or EBZ's Zohall Mercer.

I loved it. Especially the part about the rabbit! :) That was gold.

HA! This scene was so hilarious! Cleverly funny my dear. As I read,I pictured you, sitting at your computer, eagerly typing and giggling at your own hilarity, which seems to be without effort. I've always loved you Bev AND your humor. Must be why I enjoy your writings. Be proud Bev. You're so good! But poor Seth!

"Ward", Bev. Why ya gotta be so hard on my Edward? Ward? Ugh!

Had I not taken a week long break between reading, I totally would have guessed the rabbit. i remember wondering about it early on.

Anyway, I was a little scared by your comment that it was too happy an ending in the last chap, and when I started this one, it was all really touching. Almost had me tearing which is not easy to do.

Love this story! Thank you for writing it! I'm interested to see what else you have up your sleeve...

Even though you said I'd never guess, I'm going to anyway.

The scar:

A death kiss from a vampire when he was changing (perhaps from ELie herself?)

Or, his human wife hit him really, really hard...

Either way, loved the kiss, and the surprise promotion! Yay! No more bad feelings about Greg! Yay for Greg!

See...I knew he was up to no good. Stupid bloodsucking Greg...

What kind of a name is Greg anyways? (I know there's still the possibility that I'll eat my words later, but he doesn't sit right with me, though he is suave when he wants to be...just not sure how much trust good ol Greg is due...)

Wondering if Elie is on her knees doing more than grovelling while Greg looks on? Hm...got me wondering...

Oh, this was good! I understand the bit about needing BD therapy. I had to rewrite the Volturi encounter to move on. I mean, all the BS on if there's been a fight, not all of the Cullens would have survived, and I'm thinking, only if that's the way you write it, Steph. And, don't even get me started on Renesme...I forget she existed. I have never even tried to wrap my mind around it.

On the other hand, its good to see Bella all torn up, and it totally makes sense that Elie and Leah would be friends. It wasn't that she hated vamps, she just hadn't met the right one yet...

You are really brilliant. You know that right? Even if you say it wasn't planned out, everything is very smooth and engaging. And to be honest, I'm still not sure if i trust ol Greg 100% yet...

I can see the relationship building between Edward and Elie and that's nice. Its hard to see anyone hate my all time fav bronze haired vamp. Wonder what's up with Bella, and the moments between E and G are so sweet! i lvoe this story!

Hm...Elie is as stubborn as Bella. I like it...

I don't think I was expecting that, but I can see how Greg might feel betrayed. But after Elie comes out and tells him when she fell in love, you'd think he'd be able to put it together easier. I mean, he did seem rather intelligent.
