 esssjay 2009-11-10 . chapter 14i'm so glad you decided to write this sequel. it's not too often that i beg a writer for a sequel to their story, coz usually im mostly satisfied with the way they concluded the story. having said that, if i hadn't already known that 'a quick bites' had a sequel, i most definitely would've asked for one. i could see so much potential in a story about lexie and alexandro's future, and i was right. you've also most definitely fleshed quite a lot of it out in this story so far, so i'm absolutely loving it.
before i forget, i really want to point out a few plot inconsistencies that bother me. one was early on, lexie said that she hadn't known about pepper spray being illegal in england. but if i recall correctly, in 'a quick bites' lexie says that she had to order pepper spray online coz it's illegal in england. i thought that should be corrected.
argh there was another one, but i just can't seem to remember. damn i should've written it down. don't worry. i'll probably end up re-reading this story when the next chapter comes out, so i'll let you know later on..
again, loving your writing style and structure. although it may be tiresome in some stories, it definitely isn't the case for this one. and like i said in my review for 'a quick bite', i was easily able to determine the various plot developments that you were holding out on; like who thierry's boss was. i knew right from the start that it was maria. same with the ghouls being the disappearing vampires. but you still managed to draw the suspense and i was reading each chapter religiously. this is part of the reason why i hate reading stories that are still in progress. i can't stand the wait ! i'm definitely curious about how things are going to turn out. i have a hundred theories churning around in my mind.
by the way, that reminds me...earlier on in the story you brought up how lexie is in a position of influence being the king's consort. is that going to be readdressed later; like put to the test ? i hope so and i'm assuming yes, particularly because it seems as though you've been building it up, as you did when thea said that alexandro would listen to whatever lexie says so it's technically her ruling over all the vampires of england... also, i found it interesting that you brought up the pregnancy thing but didn't make lexie become pregnant. although i completely understand why, i think it'd be a good way to end the story. predictable, but definitely appropriate.
i can see that in this story, you've got the entire plot set out and you're progressively working up to the climax. i like that you've made the effort to think it up beforehand and that there's planning involved. i love reading stories of writers who are like this coz it shows just how much you're committed to writing and to the story. don't get me wrong though, i definitely understand that obviously, the actual writing is spontaneous and inspired, and minor details are obviously constructed on the spot.
either way this story is brilliant. i can't wait to see how things pan out. on that note, how many chapters do you expect that this story will be ? and do you update on a regular basis or is it just whenever the next chapter gets done ? (i know some run on a schedule...)
thanks for posting this. i'm eagerly awaiting the next update. looking forward to what's to comee.

 Brit Girl 101 2009-10-04 . chapter 14I knew it was her! I cant wait to read more. i hate the suspence. hopefully alejandro wont go back to that cow. |
 The Jasmine Deity 2009-09-05 . chapter 14Whoa Whoa...sequel...is this a cliffhanger ending? |
 Ocean Stone 2009-08-22 . chapter 14Wow! I was beginning to wonder when Alejandro's life would come back to haunt him again. I seriously believe that u should continue this story, and dont just tell me "i'm working on it" or "my internet is down". Its been almost a month since u have last updated so any of those phrases would be horrible excuses for excuses. But if u say u dont have any ideas for another chapter, then that i can understand. Just say the word if u need any help,k?
Peace
Respedt
Never Regret,

 D. B. Shell 2009-08-15 . chapter 14please please please update! u cant do that kind of cliffhanger and not!! i will literally beg if i have to... |
 Lady of Confusion 2009-08-11 . chapter 14holy cow! UPDATE ASAP! |
 readaholicxxx 2009-08-07 . chapter 14arggh! I've been waiting ages to read this chapter-the internet wasn't working and I have to say it was well worth the wait!
Well done
Can't wait for more |
 sappyromancelvr 2009-08-05 . chapter 14oh Jesus.
This story is really depressing. :/
but yet i keep reading...
Update soon! |
 Pari-angel 2009-08-04 . chapter 14to complete the the chapter title hell hath no fury like a women scor and i am betting that this birch has a lot and something along the lines of her wanting to be the first queen of vamps? my guess but you are the author so |
 konichiwa2u 2009-08-04 . chapter 14Oh my god!! Alejandro's wife Maria!! O__O Can't wait for the next update!!XD |
 AndItMovesUsAll 2009-08-03 . chapter 14OH.MY.GOD. Ah! i cant believe that, that is an amazing twist, because now Alejandros going to have to deal with the conflict of seeing his old wife again, im sensing a lot of drama coming up! I really loved this chapter although i thought it a little weird that Lexie didnt even consider that she might be in danger when that truck ran into her. Im so gla Alejandro knows about the dreams now, and that Thea and Jon are gone and i guess i'll just have to hope that Thierry pulls through in the end for Lex.
One thing though, could you possibly do a quick recap of the last chapter at the beggining of each new one? Because i forget what happens and have to search through all of the previous ones each time, because of the gap between updates. |
 heather.is.epic 2009-08-02 . chapter 14sweet you have my vote ^-^ |
 blackrule 2009-08-02 . chapter 14hehe I suspected that she may have been behind it all. Vampire stories almost always have at least one villain that is thought dead but is actually alive. Thanks for the update! It's been ages! hehe and as usual I can't wait for the next chapter! :D |
 Mayuka 2009-08-02 . chapter 14I like this story and its predecessor, but this is too similar to the Meg Cabot Mediator series. The exact name Maria De Silva... the wife coming back to meet Alejandro and mess with Lexie when he thought she was gone/dead... it's rather easy to see where your inspiration came from. I like the story, like I said, but it's really too close to what Meg Cabot wrote with vampires. |
 notwithoutyou 2009-08-02 . chapter 14So I voted for you, and hopefully lots and lots of other people did as well. Therefore I believe you should update ASAP because I am dying to know what happens next.
I love Lexie and this crazy bitch Maria needs to be taught a lesson. Damn Alejandro, WHERE ARE YOU!!?
UPDATE PLEASE :D |
