Chapter 28 - I really enjoyed this chapter, the title was very apt. The beginning of communication between Hermione and Lucius can really be seen, but you really showed the depth of the friendship with Lucius and Severus. As they were the 'key' in arranging the marriage with Hermione and Lucius, I enjoyed how it showed the unspoken loyalty they have to each other.

Chapter 29 - I can't help it, a teasing Lucius makes me happy. The segue from serious conversation with Lucius and Severus, into their their abject horror of realizing they were acting as females was hilarious, as well as the very nice interlude with Hermione was hilarious. I know that you have some more bumps and twists along they way, but it is nice to have moments of levity and realization.

Cat the lurker says hi and that she is enjoying the story :)

I like the tentative way they are trying to deal with one another. It is heartening to see it after all the drama of their first start. And I love that Severus and Lucius couldn't figure out how to do intimacy well because they are men. Hee. Wonderful.

LOL I like this chapter!! It's so nice to see the two of them getting along, though it's still so tentative. And I love how Narcissa discovered Snape's plotting! So funny!

Chapters 14 & 15 Aha, now pieces are starting to click together! So Lucius has to marry Hermione to keep his hands - innocent as they are - off the virgins of Hogwarts. And yet he is going to take up the Headship - wow. Interestingly tangled, and with the additional complications of Hermione looking into the anti-Pureblood sentiment at the Ministry and elsewhere. I like that Lucius was wrongfooted by her eager taking up of the cudgels on that issue, and I loved the way their conversation veered suddenly and randomly into the sex with or without glamours debate :D. Lucius has given Hermione sex on the brain. And bondage - a treat! Lovely. My brain is ticking over now.

Chapter 13 - Ye gods, I was there in the bed with them! I don't know anyone who writes such vivid, detailed descriptions of sex without it ever lapsing into the anatomical or tasteless or repetitive. You never write the same sex twice, and I really admire that - it's awfully difficult to do. Fantastically sexy stuff - I wonder how long it will take for Hermione to realise that enjoying good sex doesn't make you a bad person...even if it is with a Death Eater, heh.

Chapter 28:

Lucius is surprisingly mature in this chapter. He could have opted to not clear the air but wants a fresh start with his wife. Talk about an open and honest dialogue between the two, they were able to be incredibly honest with one another and no one went off the handle. It

I've reread from the start and now I'm at chapter twelve - what a verrrry sexy chapter it is, too! I love Hermione's 'Let's get it over with' and Lucius charming himself to make him look indifferent to Hermione's charms. He's going to be regarded as the monster for some time yet, I think, but I reckon Hermione needs a bit of a monster. Interesting flashback with the orgy potion - and very interesting that Lucius somehow associates Hermione erotically with Bellatrix. I wonder how that will affect his changing feelings towards her? Great stuff - I have missed this!

YAY! *claps hands together wickedly* Though the comment about infertility was a little below the belt...teehee...I made a little funny. Yes, my humor is lame. But yours is AMAZING! I love this. And I am only on Chapter 3, so I must dash off to read more. Lucius is going to show the sassy little witch who is boss, I hope.
