Another amazing chapter that you've created.  Kinda scared at the possibilities that now loom immediately in front of them.  Ripping the bandage off of the warm and fuzzies are you?  Update soon as you are able.  Love this fic.
Thanks.

great cliff hanger didnt see that coming at all.
a unique and enjoyable AU hoping to be able to read more soon.
yes their little Eden contains more snakes out of the water than in it.  Never fear, our intrepid couple will  prevail - but I am going to apply some pressure first. Can make the story much longer if I do. Thanks.

 The cruel back story of Buffy's sexual experience explains a lot.  Fracturing Parker's pelvis would put a girl off sex, but it couldn't have happened to a bigger sleaze.

Spike lighting the flame and just letting Buffy's libido smolder was lovely, and it paid off in the sensual lake scene.  It was romantic and erotic and you believably brought them together.  I thought they were on the road to a real relationship, so the attack was a complete surprise.

I can't wait to read more of this entertaining story.  
Felt the need to give Buffy some emotional baggage to add to the awkwardness between them, so I just called up one of the usual suspects - since Angel is off limits. Makes the Spuffy loving sweeter I think. Am old enough - and old-fashioned enough to want the seeds of a proper relationship to grow between them as well as lust. but that might just be me. Spike is definitely the experienced one here so yes he is  taking advantage at this stage, but perhaps that's what she needs. thanks for the review Brunettepet.

Oh my GOD!   What a  place to leave it; you evil, evil thing!  Please, you have to update soon, I'm dying to see what happens next!  Absolutely love the way the relationship between them is blossoming; can't wait to see if Buffy will trust in Spike through this new revelation!  Hurry hurry hurry!
Mmm... I must be evil since so many people have told me so. Maybe I should immerse myself in scarab beetles or something till it goes away. Thanks lots and I am close to the next chapter if you aren't fed up of me by now.

Dammit - they really aren't going to have an easy ride with this one, are they?! Brilliant chapter, can't wait to see what happens!
Didn't mean to go all angsty but then there'd be nothing to fight for (and would be a much shorter story) if I didn't turn the thumbscrews - just a little.

Noooooooooo!!!!!!!!!! That was a very good cliffhanger, and I desperately want to know what happens. Will Buffy have to leave? How long until she figures out that Spike asserted his dominance? Spike was very clever in tricking her into that and getting her all hot and bothered. I need more! (and nice touch with the Parker thing. He deserved it, and Buffy needed more than him.)
Yep - even souled he's still not that noble - but then its early days in their relationship still. Parker? well he deserves everything he gets as I'm sure you'll agree. Thank you Ber MH.

oh no the truce is off. Great chapter can't wait until the next one.
And poor Buffy will have to choose sides too. Poor lass - even in space she ends up in the same old pickle. Thanks Ivy.

Well - you take the prize for exclamation marks! Just as well people can't reach down through their computers and strangle me or I'd be in a sorry state by now. Am close to finishing the next chapter (strokes reviewer in soothing fashion).

Poor Buffy.  Please write more soon.  I wanna know what happens next.
Poor Spike too - after all he's the one with the headache. More soon - honest.

Not the ending of the consummation that I was expecting.  The plot is back on.
Mmm.... maybe I should have let them have a little more quality time together, but that mean soldier just elbowed her way into the scene.

Oh, what a wonderfully naughty Spike at the beginning! :)

I love the way the chapter flowed, bringing them slowly together.  Spike obviously had alterior, physical motives at the beginning,  but the way you had him slowly 'see' her as a person, an equal, a woman was very believable and  beautiful.  He was very patient with her, yet teased her enough that she just couldn't resist him anymore - and let's face it, who would want to resist him?! :)

But the end!!  You are wicked!  You can't leave us hanging like that for long, please!!!   
Honestly didn't know if I was moving too fast or too slow there. Glad you liked it anyway. Close to (writing) the end of the next chapter - am going to be upping the suspense though. sorry.
