I can't believe I'm reading all of this before starting the story and still can't wait to dive into this another tale that Mann has woven. I need to quit cheating and read:P
How sad and horrible. Their relationship has barely gotten off the ground and something this gut-wrenching happens. Can't wait to see how you handle the fall out form the rape. Alex seems like such and understanding and supportive person. Now I'm really glad you found you next chapter.
What an awesome build up and have them run off into the bedroom. Done, finis, that's all folks. LOL. My imagination gets to work overtime now. LOL You were the tease with that chapter.
Alex is such a tease. I've got to go back and read the prompt again, but that'll have to wait. I'm too enthralled with the story. This chapter was so damn sweet.
