I like this chapter..Not for the fact that Illias apologized or that they are about to become intimate. But because they both accept that they hold attraction/like towards each other. That she isn't just another job to him. I feel as she is still frightened towards him even if her body wants him but still in the back of her mind their will always be that awful incident. Great job...cant wait to see how everything with Ser will go...You have me in the edge of my chair...

Alright! More Illias x Alma action... in the next chapter! Can't wait!

The cliffhanger of all cliffhangers! I love the way you're slowly revealing different bits of Illias to us...great stuff. I'm anxiously awaiting the next chapter!

Ooh, that was so sexy. M, yum.

That last scene between them was smokin' hot. Great job, it was the perfect combination of seduction and sensibility. I even like how you led up to that with the heat...brings about those frustrations, let me tell you!

I remain your loyal reader,

Serai Rhifune

yea..finally they admit they have some feelings towards each other..

O_o I can't say how unbelievably happy I am with how this chapter turned out. Though I don't much like this cliff hanger on such a intense part. I'm almost at a loss for words on how to describe how happy I am with how Illias told her his feelings for her. It was delicate and intimate the way he told her, and just wonderful. I honestly hope nothing interrupts them in the next chapter. Good luck with the next chapter, dieing to read it ]

I admit, I'm hooked. When will the next update be posted?

I really really like it. :)

I really like this story. Very catching.

Keep going, you're really talented :)

Hola, this is Courtney. :)

I actually signed in for once to send you a review.

Anyway, wow, I read this the day you posted it, but I hadn't had the time to review, but here I am! I'm finding that I always enjoy your chapters, and I'm always so excited to wait for you to update. Like, seriously, everyday when I get on, I go to my bookmarks folder, and go down to your link and see if you've updated. EVERYDAY! Hahaha, :D

But, on to the review! I'm glad Alma and Illias are civil once again! And I was waiting for her to blow up at him for raping her, I didn't really think she'd let it go that easy. But, even though he raped her, I find it amazing how she still wants him. Poor lad. Hahaa, but it's okay, I don't think Illias is that bad when he's not having those mood swings. And he had a good reason to justify why he did it as well. Anyway, I keep waiting for the 'big boom', of your story as per say. So, update soon!

I sure hope that last line Illias says will ensue some fun in the next chapter.

Well hello yet again..LOL

I love that you addressed why she was rapped and that you made her stand up for herself.

I read some of the reviews and how they still cant appreciate "the scene" but I find it that its a catalyst to things to come. As for the issue for her loving him, I say that she felt attraction before why not after. Sure the way he did it could have been better but it still had her best interest at heart. I know that, that sounds like twisted logic, but for some odd reason I feel like it applies here.

I love how this story is progressing and cant wait to read more.

P.S. Love the last like :D

“I want you to know that it is no longer good enough just sleeping beside you, Alma Caldwell."

-Oh lovely. xD

I expect to see some action next chapter! (And I say this in an entirely loving manner of your writing.) Romantic and/or violent (with demons and whatnot, nothing kinky...jeez, if that's what you assumed in the first place then I'm the one with a dirty mind, aren't I? Hot damn.)

)

-OHS

i think you dealt with "the scene" pretty well and I'm sure most of us knew WHY he did it beforehand, but of course, it doesn't really excuse HOW he did it. I thought the scene was pretty violent, myself. which is fine, because you show her being affected/angered by it. however, I do think it's strange that she wants him to join her in bed at the end of this chapter. too soon?

it makes her seem very weak. I would think it would take longer? I don't know.

I'm not writing all this to seem critical :) I thought this was a great chapter and you approached the issue head-on which is great. so many emotions and I still love the idea of the two of them together.
