Every time I read a new chapter I have all kinds of trouble imagining how someone can live like that! Both the slave and the master! To have no control or to be solely responsible for another, yikes!
No to say I'm very intrigued by your story and it's written wonderfully. Do you have firsthand knowledge of the lifestyle, cause it seems so.
I loved their outing to the park and their sweet interaction both physical and emotional. It really shows how much they love eachother.
I'm not quite sure how Jasper fits into all this. Edward is very possessive, but still lets Jasper participate with and "use" Bella. I can see where that would be fun for a couple of scenes, but would be very limiting to Bella (yet another Sir to be mindful off) and uncomfortable for all parties if it lasts longer.
I can already see Jasper developing feelings for Bella which she doesn't reciprocate and they're more intimately involved then his friend-status would indicate. It is confusing and a potential for unwanted sexual acts. If Jasper would order Bella to perform any sexual act in Edward's absence, could she say no or even more prudent, would she? Edward has said any kindness to Jasper will be regarded as a kindness to him, so does the reverse go as well? Any unkindness (read rejection) to Jasper is the same towards Edward. If that's the case, she will do anything Jasper asks, even if it's not what she has discussed with Edward. I know you said earlier no threesomes, Bella stealing or full sex between Bella and Jasper, but that doesn't exclude unwanted sexual acts on Bella's part.
Can you give a timeline of how long until the wedding, how long Jasper is supposed to be staying with them and say yet how many chapters are left?
Looking forward to the next chapter.
Author's Response: I understand your concerns about Jasper. Just to set your mind at ease, Jasper isn't going to cross that line where he forces Bella to do something she isn't comfortable with or that Edward isn't okay with. He is a good guy and Edward's best friend, he is just a little infatuated with Bella.
If Jasper and Bella were alone and Jasper asked Bella to do something that she wasn't sure about, she'd check with Edward first. He is her Master and she takes her orders from him. Remember that she can safeword if she isn't comfortable and if she thought that Jasper was asking her to do something that Edward didn't approve of, she would ask him. And if Edward asked her to do something that she really had a problem with, she'd use her safeword.
I hope that sets your mind at ease about Jasper.
There is a lot of story before we get to the wedding. We are on day 4 of the story and the wedding is 4 weeks away. Jasper is staying until Tuesday.
I'm not sure exactly how many chapters there will be, we aren't even halfway there yet, though. Hope you will hang in there for the rest!
Thanks for reading and I appreciate your review!
