Title: Return To Me
Author: JackBauer
Rated: R/T
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4777477/1/Return_to_Me


This story, based on the movie “Return To Me” as the title itself lets one assume, has been finished for quite a while now and was so amazing, emotionally loaded and moving that I still decided to review it for you.

JackBauer has an incredible way of writing and describing. Even though everything is in a third persons point of view the reader still feels connected to the characters, sympathizes with them and generally feels as if he's in the middle of all happenings.

JackBauer describes us a Bella, who has gotten a heart transplant and is now trying to get used to her new lifestyle. Tired of being pitied by her grandfather and older brother Emmett, she works at their family restaurant and meets the widower Edward Cullen, who's wife died in an accident two years ago. They find a linking in one another and something more starts developing between them. But they both have problems opening up to people and there is a secret lurking in the dark that has to do with Edward's dead wife and will affect both their life. When this secret comes into light will they be able to conquer the problems that'll arise with it, or will the doubt, the disappointment, the hidden secret and the lies destroy what they have so hard worked for?

A story of struggle, pain, heartache, the balance between lies and half-truths and most of all love that has left a bittersweet taste on my tongue.

Author: Jillian Landers

WIP fic


Not only is Jillian an active member of our staff and on the Twilighted Forum, but she writes as well. Bullet with Butterfly Wings is the name of the story with which she managed to pull me into her spell.

Now let me tell you one thing, as some of you may have noticed till now, Jill isn't on good terms with fluff. She actually despises it. And this hatred towards it is mirrored in her stories as well. So far Bullet with Butterfly Wings isn't many chapters in and there is much more to come. But even in those 11 chapters she has already posted you understand this little fact about her. There is emotion, action and even a little bit of smut already, but no trace of anything fluffy. Her writing style is nice and easy to read, but if you are looking for something funny, clich̩ and done and re-done time after time, this story isn't for you. It'll be dark, tragic and Рand maybe this is what makes it special Рrealistic, down to earth and very likely to happen.

After having been shipped from one parent to the other her whole life long, Bella decides to go and permanently live with her father Charlie in Forks, where she enrolls into the local High School and is forced to come to terms with her new life and her father marrying Claire Hale, a widow with two children, Rosalie and Jasper. Feeling abandoned and not knowing what her place in her father's life is, anger starts building up in her, which she releases in the best possible way known to her; by being a bitch. One of her angers usual outlets is classmate and childhood friend Edward Cullen, with whom she has not been on speaking terms with since the day she moved back to Forks. Soon, those battles between them that have turned into full blown word wars, start being the highlight of her day and she soon realizes that there is more to this Edward she is now fighting with, than she first wanted to let herself believe. The journey to come won't be easy for either of them and there is heartbreak ensured to follow.

This story of anger, jealousy, love and heartbreak, that has much more to come and is nothing for weak hearts, definitely left a spicy taste on my tongue.

I, personally, can't wait for Jillian to update the next chapter.

Get reading,
Caroline


Title:Not Bad Enough
Author: Jlnar19
Link: http://www.twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=11043


Not Bad Enough by Jlnar19 is mystery and suspense packed in once intense package! So far, there are only five chapters and the dose of mystery and suspense double with each one. I can’t say too much about it now, being that we don’t even know what it’s about. That is the whole twist! Bella travelled to Forks from Arizona to look for her estranged father, Charlie. She hunts for a job to gain some cash, and scouts a place to crash for the night. Soon enough, Rosalie hires Bella on at a local bar, there she meets Jasper, Emmett, Alice, and of course, Edward. Now, Edward is one strange character. The way Jlnar19 writes the mentality state of her characters is very intriguing. They seem normal, but are they? Are they really?
All Jlnar19 readers know that something bad, very bad, has happened in the world. A massacre? Some natural disaster? Who knows. All we know is that everybody in Forks blames themselves for what “happened” to the world. All we know is that peanut butter now costs one hundred and fifty dollars. We know that all they are trying to do is survive each day. What we don’t know is…why.

Of course, this seems to be telling a mysterious tale, but not without the hint of BxE angst. Edward repulses, HATES Bella in this fic. Alice tells Bella that he just needs time - that he’s a good man, but recently we all found out something, so you have to be the judge of that.

All I can say is that the suspense is driving me crazy, but I can’t stop reading it. The fiction is extremely well written, and the dynamic Jlnar19 has taken upon her story is phenomenal. I have never stumbled across a fic like this, never. The plot and storyline are very refreshing, giving a kick to the Twilight Fandom.

Here are a few excerpts from Jlnar19’s Not Bad Enough.

“Edward can be rebuilt,” Alice rushed on. “He can be fixed. You see, he’s always been a little broken, Bella. Even before it happened. Well, now he’s shattered. But I don’t think he’s irreparable. I think you can fix him.”

What’s it? The suspense drives me wild!

Edward yanked away, baring his teeth. “Stay the fuck away from me!” he growled, and then he pushed me so hard that I fell backwards on my ass into the room while he slammed the door in my face.

I scrambled to my knees and scuttled to the window, too frightened of myself and him to disobey but too compelled by him to hide completely away. And what I saw turned me to wax lit by a burning flame, melting me against the wall as I pressed my eyes to the glass.

Edward was crouched on the ground, one arm clutching his stomach as if he was in violent pain while the other held his left hand to his mouth.

And he was licking and sucking my blood from his fingers.


See? Now don’t you wanna know what the hell is going on! I wish I could tell all of your more than what I have, but I can’t. Jlnar19 is giving us nothing, she has us hanging off every word of her story, and begging for answers. What happened to the world? Why is Edward licking Bella’s blood of his fingers? Why is peanut butter one hundred dollars? I don’t want to say much more, but why is everybody turning into savages? I highly recommend Jlnar19’s Not Bad Enough if you’re the reader into suspense and mystery. Please be sure to leave her a review, she doesn’t get the recognition she deserves, and that’s why Taste on My Tongue is here. Enjoy the story!

Title: Bella Swan: Kidnapper
Author: Kambria Rain
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5062719/1/


Okay, I normally loathe fluff with a passion. Really, I do. I’m the one who declared that she would not read or review any fluff… but look what I stumbled upon. This charming little completed work had me in stitches from the get-go.
Bella Swan is a single mom with a sense of humor, an insane sister, a penchant for the Ninja Turtles, and a mysterious career that she refuses to talk about. Edward Cullen is a single dad who receives the phone call that no parent wants ever wants to get.

"Um. Hi. My name is Bella Swan. I don't really know how to say this, but I have your kids with me, and I was thinking maybe you would like them back. So yeah… call me."

As far as kidnappers go, Bella Swan has got to be the coolest—so really, Edward Cullen shouldn’t be so scared. The only problem might be the fact that she keeps doing it. At every turn, Edward’s two small children wind up in Bella’s care; and the pair eventually work out a formal sitting schedule. The plot leans toward the predictable at its core, but the road Kambria Rain takes to get there is nothing short of hilarious. Between Bella’s antics and her hell-on-wheels sister, Nessie Dwyer, Edward and his kids go on an unforgettable ride.

What I enjoyed most about this piece was that while it’s lighthearted and pretty damn fluffy, I didn’t want to gag or end my life. If you’re looking for something to make you laugh and that is a quick read, this might be the story for you.

Happy Reading!

Title: Faking It
Author: SpangleMaker
Link: http://twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=5629

This all human Edward and Bella have some serious heat! This complete story places our favorite couple into the spotlight of the entertainment business, both professional and personal.

 Edward is a highly paid actor who has hit a rough patch with his excessive partying and “my shit don’t stink” attitude with his jobs. He is a liability to the production of movies and no one wants him anymore.  Bella is the lead singer of Eclipse, the band that won an American band search much like American Idol but for bands. She along with Emmett, Rosalie, and Jasper are thrust into this world and are enjoying life.

A chance, and very brief, encounter between Edward and Bella is caught by paparazzi and is plastered all over the internet and magazines alike. Both of their publicists decide that this could benefit each of them if they were to become a couple.

This simple arrangement, turns from a business deal to so much more. The chemistry between the two is palpable, even when Edward is being an ass and when Bella is too blind to see that he truly does have feelings for her.

The lemons in this fic are simply delicious and make you wish you had an Edward of your own waiting for you to close out the screen and ravish you. While the lemons are HOTHOTHOT the story is more than good enough to read with or without them!

Faking it has definitely left a wonderful Taste on My Tongue!

Love to all

Title: Loner
Author: Nilla
Link: http://twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=8957

Loner by Nilla is about an outcast (Edward) who is broken in so many ways. Then, you have dedicated, loving, selfless girl (Bella) who does everything in her power to help Edward find happiness. Though, at the beginning of the story Edward doesn’t make life easier for her, but they eventually form an incredible bond. Through all the pain and tragedy Edward endures, he finds solace within Bella. He doesn't know why and feels unworthy of her, but he’s drawn to her nonetheless, finding out quickly that he wouldn’t be able to cope or live without her. Nilla’s conceptualizations of her characters are phenomenal.

Nilla takes her readers on a journey and weaves together such young, intellectual characters, bringing them to a level of comfort they can only find in each other. Finding answers to questions they dared never to ask, proving that everybody deserves a chance at forgiveness, understanding, and most importantly - to love and be loved in return. In 'Loner' Bella has doubts, but in her sincere thrive to make people better, she finds herself intrigued by Edward Cullen. She placed him in front of herself and does everything in her power to prove to him he deserves nothing but the best. Knowing little about Edward's situation, she comes up with ways to help him cope and heal without even knowing his background- she just understands. From observing -to scouting for answers- Bella soon finds out that Edward was abused, but she definitely doesn't know the whole story. She finds herself feeling the same pain that Edward holds within himself, being there for him and comforting him until the end. Though the process of their blooming relationship is a bumpy ride, Edward slowly becomes a better man. Finding himself happy in a sense, worthy even. Every chapter opens up a new wound, but not without a remedy.

I highly recommend Loner by Nilla. Seeing the characters develop from cold and broken, to loving and caring was transitioned in such a beautiful way. Though the story is not finished yet, I can only see Bella and Edward heal each other then transpire into a loving relationship. ‘Loner’ is absolutely engrossing, and will have you hanging off each chapter, begging to see an e-mail letting you know it has been updated. It is so well written; it swallows you up and spits you out a better person. It brings a whole new level of foundation to a friendship which should be practiced in everyday life. I truly believe that 'Loner' by Nilla will make every reader a better person, and if a story can change somebody’s life for the better, they sure as hell deserved to be recognized.

Nilla, I don't know what to say but thank you for bringing the journey of Bella and Edwards’s path to our lives. It is an amazing thing that an individual can find a cure and love in the same package, whether it’s fiction or non-fiction.

Thank you, Nilla, you’re an amazing author.

Until next time,
Kayla


Title: Cascade & Cyanide
Author: americnxidiot
Link:http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4751299/1/Cascade_and_Cyanide

Cascade & Cyanide by americnxidiot must have been one of the first fanfics I ever read. I could say one of those that convinced me that fan-art can sometimes be as good as the original book, if not even better. Although I wouldn't label this one as publishing-worthy and something I would buy when looking for a good book after reading some other masterpieces, I can easily say that americnxidiot did a good job writing such a captivating and enticing AU-H story.

Everything starts when our dear Bella Swan moves back to Forks... No, wait. This is the wrong way to start it. Even though this is the beginning of the story's time line, americnxidiot managed to pull me into her spell way before that. How, you ask? By writing a preface that left me full of questions, anxious to find out what happened before and thirsty for more. Let me tell you, the first sentence alone, got me hooked to the point that I simply had to read the story overnight.

“People had always warned me about Edward Masen.” Is the first thought Bella Swan has. And not without reason. In the preface Bella walks in into an Edward like you have never seen before...

“Edward was hunched over a sketchpad, his arm flying furiously across the page, feet jittering so much it looked like he was seizing. The pencil in his hand was bent and strained with the force of his grip. Nonsensical words slipped out of his mouth at an incredible rate. I had entered his room ten minutes ago, and Edward had yet to notice my presence, so consumed in his drawing and whatever was running through his head.

"Fucking heart is beating out of my chest," he seethed, ripping his apparently inadequate creation out of his sketchbook and beginning a new one before the paper had even hit the floor. It landed gently next to the empty baggy coated in white powder and a rolled up dollar bill.

"Edward?" I asked, my voice shaking like it never had before. His eyes shot up to me, green irises hidden by highly dilated pupils.”

Edward had always been described as the “psychotic”, “weird” and “freakish” kid, dangerous and not to approach, unless you wanted to commit “social suicide”. But Bella never believed the rumors about him and ignoring all the warnings of her father and classmates she decided to form her own opinion of him. In her eyes he was the silent and misunderstood tortured soul of an artist who couldn't find solace in anything and kept all the pain hidden inside. She decided she wanted to be there for him, a friend, a confidant and didn't give up on that even after he tried to push her away. Slowly opening up to her, she found out how the real Edward Masen is: funny, honest, passionate, intelligent and caring; and fell in love with him. This knowledge was what only made it more terrifying for her to see him like this. That is when she too realized that there was something horribly wrong with him, that had nothing to do with the drugs or the gossip or his family. What exactly that is is not relieved in the preface. And the urge to find it out was what had me addicted to and hanging on americnxidiot's every word.

The gripping plot, engrossing but still easy way of writing and the fluency of the story is what makes it impossible to put down. I am proud to say, that this story, without being smutty at all, definitely left a sweet aftertaste on my tongue.

Happy Reading,
Caroline


Title: Love In My Box
Author: cosmoandmarvar
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5782455/1/

Love in my Box is a AH work in progress that caught my attention in the first chapter and held me captivated for over an hour while I finished reading what has already been posted. This story has had me laughing so hard I started to get strange looks from those sitting near me.

While this story is mostly written as emails between Bella and Edward, the correspondence portrays a delightfully romantic Geekward and a “trying to be” confident Bella. We get explanations of what has happened to introduce these two and what is going on now in their lives in their own points of view sporadically throughout the story.

We have yet to have a full on sex scene, but the sexy talk and simple fondling of a memory have been steamy enough for me to have complete faith that when these two finally see each other it will be so hot my screen may melt.

I must say, Love in my Box  has left a pretty hot and spicy taste on my tongue!

Love to all,
Rosalynn


Title:Vegas Baby!
Author: Jslack
Link: http://twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=5728

Although I usually don't read unfinished stories, Vegas Baby! by jslack had me completely hooked from her very first word. Jslack's writing style is smart, yet simple and easy to read. The story flows and the general appearance is friendly to the eye making this story, although with long chapters, easy to read.

So what happens in Vegas Baby?

After going to Las Vegas with her friends to let some steam off, Bella finds herself, naked, in the bed of a stranger, with a wedding certificate in hand, proving that she, in fact, is now Mrs. Cullen. Now you may ask what the negative part about this is. I mean, who wouldn't want to wake up married to Edward fucking Cullen? Well, the point is, Bella has no recollection of the night that lead to this particular revelation. And neither does sexy, rich businessman and bar owner Edward. So you can guess how pleased they both are when they find out they are married! Right. Not. At. All. So what do they do? Accuse each other of being a hooker and irresponsible and then  part ways after a phone call Bella receives stating her ex lies in hospital, of course! A divorce is set in motion that they both agree on and everything seems to go back to normal. Well, they would be normal if it weren't  for the sex dreams they keep having about each other, which turn out to be flashbacks of the passionate wedding night they shared together and another much bigger and harder to deal with problem that lurks in the background and is going to change their life forever. An emotional roller-coaster assured to follow.

I LITERALLY beg jslack for updates on this story but she seems somehow reluctant to provide them. The updates are not frequent and sometimes it can happen that nothing is updated for a month but the wait is always worth it when you get to read the next chapter. By now I really don't know if I should be thankful to jslack for providing such a good story or mad for having me this addicted.

Um, why you still reading this?

Go read the story!

Title: Olympic Rain and Novocain 
Author: Addicakes
Link: http://twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=7655

Olympic Rain and Novocain by Addicakes is a story about two young individuals, one who held a secret, and one who is in deep pain. On one fateful night, they met each other and have helped each other heal in indescribable ways. The characters were extremely credible in this fiction - the story between them, and how they communicate with each other, is a sincere healing process. Every possible detail- from ones human gestures, to their idiosyncrasies- were delineated extraordinarily.

The way Addicakes described her characters movements, dialogue, and feelings, made you truly feel for them. Truly believe you were there. The way Edward helped Bella let go of her pain, and the way Bella helped Edward believe that he was a good man was profoundly beautiful. I get Goosebumps writing this review. The foundation within this fiction was moving, touching your heart in the process. The reader will smile, cry, and make their heart swell with happiness as well with pain.

Olympic Rain and Novocain is written very well, as if she were telling her own story. Addicakes style of writing is very formal (third person), but has informal waves throughout, making it easier for us to relate - to place ourselves in Bella or Edward's shoes. I highly recommend Olympic Rain and Novocain (which is now complete) to every reader on Twilighted. You are propelled in comfort/hurt and eventually romance. Once you read the first chapter it's impossible to stop. The elements taken within the storyline and plot are one I am entranced. It's absolutely captivating, and will have you hanging until the end of the last chapter. Addicakes does more than she's given credit for, and deserves to be recognized.

Fabulous job, Addicakes.

Until next time,
Kayla

Title: No Choice
Author: Glasscannon.lj
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5079674/1/No_Choice

Rating: T

My review this week is on No Choice by glasscannon.lj. This work in progress is an AU story of New Moon that veers from the story after chapter 12, "The Meadow." The premise is that the wolves are a few seconds too late when they intervene between Bella and Laurent, and Bella is bitten.

I know that New Moon AU stories are a dime a dozen, but this one is exceptionally well written and creative. The characters follow many of the same paths as the original book with some wonderful twists and turns along the way. The main reason I love this story is that the characterizations are spot on and the details are so intricately written that the reader is simply transported into the story.

Enjoy,

Title: The Apple Doesn’t Fall Far
Author: Twighlit
Link: http://www.twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=7963


The Apple Doesn’t Fall Far just about sums up the story. I was very skeptical and judgmental when I first started reading this fic. I was not agreeing well with the fact that Bella had a daughter (Emma) which Jacob fathered, who is now sixteen years old, and dating Edward! I was pretty much repulsed, but I thought I would give it a shot, and I have been an addict to this Apple from the start.

There is so much betrayal, confusion, and lies that I suck up every minute of it. If angst isn’t your thing, don’t bother reading. But, for those of you who are…read on! So much has happened already. Edward falls in love with Emma because she reminds him so much of Bella. Emma was in a music shop with Edward and she played on a display piano the lullaby Edward had written for Bella. Edward gets furious and rips her hands of the keyboard, wanting to know where she learned it. Emma said her mother hummed it to her when she was a baby, and still absentmindedly does (how…heartbreaking). Emma is hiding the fact that she is dating Edward from her parents. Edward’s not “ready” to meet her parents (I wonder why!) Bella finds out, resulting in a heated raging frenzy and shows Edward what she’s made of. With Bella having a few tricks up her sleeve, she doesn’t tell Emma she is aware of who her boyfriend is and sends her off to spend the weekend with her grandfather Charlie. There, Emma falls on the floor and stumbles across an uplifted floorboard in Bella’s old room (I wonder what’s under there?!)

Do I need to continue, or have you already clicked on the link? So much more has happened, but I don’t want to give the story away. I just read the updated chapter, and I love the feisty attitude and spunk Twighlit writes Emma with. She’s has a very I don’t give a fuck and I won’t take your shit attitude, making it hard NOT to love her, making it hard NOT to read it.

You just don’t read Edward and Emma rendezvous, or Bella’s emotional turmoil, but you’re taken on a journey skin deep into human emotions. Take out the fact that Emma is Bella’s daughter, unfortunately situation happen like this on a daily basis. One’s best friend is cheating with your boyfriend…just cheating and betrayal in general…fucking sucks! It’s interesting to read the unique dynamic has taken with Emma and her journey on how she handles the closet heartbreak she is going through.

There is a secret about Emma which I am dying to reveal…but I can’t…I just fucking can’t! I know some of you out there are severely intrigued with this story, giving that I barley just wrote a review on it. Putting it simply, this is an engrossing fic, and it will have you begging for an update…honestly. As SnowQueens IceDragon simply puts it (Which Twighlit got permission to use) it’s “Fifty shades of fucked up.”

So, go read it and leave a review. Don’t forget to congratulate her on her success on becoming a Validation Beta on Twilighted.

Until next time,

Title: Starry Night
Author: ringswraith
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4785976/1/Starry_Night


I'm going to start off my first recommendation for T rated fics with this very unusual one. It is one of the most unique stories in the T rating that I have found. Starry Night is AU for a new character and a slight differences in vampire abilities. This is one of those surprising stories that are hidden treasures in fanfiction. Though it is rated T, it is an adult story about love, loss, and hope. The story is about an original character, Giovanni, who comes in contact with the Cullen clan accidentally during the summer between Twilight and New Moon.

I know, no one likes original characters in fanfiction stories, but this little gem does feature the Cullens and especially Bella and Edward. As I said, this is a surprising story, and its unusual plot is a nice break from the normal T rated offerings. The story is very well written, with clean and clear writing and wonderfully detailed characterizations. Starry Night also contains some great action scenes -- another thing not often found in the T rated realm. The main character is a strongly gifted vampire who is realistically written and quite endearing.

We first meet Giovanni on the day his mate dies, so this story isn't so much about falling in love as it is overcoming loss and learning to accept love from others. However, Giovanni does witness the bond of love between Edward and Bella, and his perception of them is charming. Again, this isn't your normal story, but I think that is its strength. The struggles of Giovanni and his interactions with the Cullens present a breath of fresh air for the reader. Another plus, it is rather short for a fanfiction, and at 26,000 words, it is easily readable in a sitting or two. Giovanni is one of my favorite OC characters and one of the best characterizations of a good guy that I've read.

If you would prefer, there is an R rated version of this story at Twilighted as well, at http://www.twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=7852

Happy Reading

Title: Prey
Author: Summer35
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4856255/1/Prey


"Bella, Edward Cullen is staring at you again," Jessica, as always, could be counted on to state the obvious.
"Let him. I don't care," She didn't have to raise her voice. She knew he could hear her..

Bella Swan returns to her birthplace of Forks, Washington to live with her father, Charlie. Sound familiar? Well, that’s about the only thing that does. Summer35’s Edward is dark and menacing, and he’ll still leave you panting for more. The description on Fanfiction[dot]net has this little story listed as a romance/mystery, but I was in suspense the entire time. I found little romance in the traditional sense, thank God. There’s little else worse than a predictable love story, and this story is anything but predictable.

Upon Bella’s return to her sleepy home town, she catches the eye of several potential suitors. Though, none of the human competitors stand a chance against the dangerous and blood thirsty, Edward Cullen. Reluctant to his advances, Bella rejects Edward to the very end. The million dollar question is, will Bella ever accept that she is inexplicably tied to Edward? In most stories, this wouldn’t even be a question. Edward and Bella belong together—right? The idea that Bella Swan won’t ever love Edward Cullen in unfathomable in the fandom… until you read Prey. Summer35 has written an Edward you really want to kick in the shins. He’s not very likeable most of the time, and yet, you find yourself drawn to him, just like poor Bella. Edward is brutish and cold, but he still makes the most callous statement sound sexy.

A treaty agreement between humans, vampires and wolves has certain laws set in place. Certain laws that Edward Cullen, a member of the Volturi guard, chooses to disregard, and concocts a detailed plan in order to get around such laws. The only problem is that his plan’s success relies on Bella; and when she is unwilling to cooperate, Edward raises the stakes and forces her hand. This completed work has no fluffy ending and it won’t leave you swooning for Edward, but it will stay with you long after you’ve read the final line.

Enjoy the sexy and dark Edward!

Title: Hide & Drink
Author: Savage
Link:http://twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=9649


This story is just plain fucking hilarious. I wish I could find a more elegant manner in which to describe this fic, but I can’t. Savage has given the fandom a story that will have you snorting in public and pissing your pants all the while rooting for the death of innocents.

Edward Cullen is a vegetarian vampire who has vowed to not drink human blood, that is, until he comes face to face with Bella Swan. Her blood is far too tempting for Edward to resist, and he takes fair Bella prisoner. Bella’s life is a ticking clock until it dawns on Edward that if he kills her, then he’ll never get to taste her blood again. He may be crazy, but he sure as hell is not stupid. When Carlisle and company try to persuade Edward to set Bella free, he descends into a downward spiral of madness in order to keep the most precious thing in the world to him; and in the process is disowned by the Cullen clan.

Savage’s Edward is entertaining as a vampire in need of some major psychiatric help, but the process of self discovery that leads him to realize something infinitely more important than Bella’s blood is the real kicker in this tale. As their relationship grows, Edward finds himself at war with a new monster—his libido. If he thought Bella’s blood was tempting, it was because he had yet to discover her boobs. Savage’s zealots have aptly named him Boobward and can be found chanting “drink that bitch!” in their very own thread on Twilighted—and I promise, after catching up with this fic, you’ll be racing to join them!
