Happy Holidays

Oh wow! What a ride so far. I am totally enjoying you! I love your male characters. Your Kagome is excellent too. Thank you and I will be on the lookout for more. Until then.....

Wow, amazing! I actually do have a thing for the thief of the bliss. He is alluring in his own way, I'm sort of hoping he doesn't end up leaving. >___>"

But, a great chapter! I'm definitely looking forward to the next.

I love love love your story. I read it last night and liked it so much that I re-read it again today. I really like the way you differentiate between the two Sesshoumaru's and I can't wait to see what you're going to do with the story. I hope you update soon. This story is very well written and you've definitely creeped me out a few times and built up suspense which is an impressive thing to do through words alone. 

Okay so... I'm really torn. I KNOW I'm supposed to dislike Nah Rah Ku because... well he's Naraku. But that chapter just totally made me get all "awwwwwwww" for him! Now I realized he's a master manipulator and maybe he's just using Kagome's sympathetic nature against her, but then again maybe in some sick twisted way he really felt betrayed and hurt by her lack of trust in him? It makes me worry about retaliation... will he leave it at not explaining that bitemark to the Professor? Or will he seek some other form of retaliation? And if he really is hurt by Kagome, then maybe it suggests that his feelings are more than simple possessiveness. Certainly, if his feelings are more, he's likely to have never experienced those feelings before, and wont necessarily know how to respond/react or handle it which could make him even more dangerous to kagome and/or the professor! GULP! And I'm suspicious about his helping her with lyka too. I mean he took the spirit from her, without so much as a request from Kagome. Were his motives for helping her a rare display of mostly altruistic motives (I say "mostly," because I doubt he'd do anything entirely altruistic) or is there more to it? It makes me wonder, what didn't he want Lyka to share with Kagome? So many questions about his motives there that I'm on the edge of my seat! I REALLY loved that you brought to our notice the fact that Naraku seems to derive as much enjoyment from their virbal encounters as he derives from their physical encounters. It had dawned on me that he spent a lot of time communicating with her, when it could just be a "wham, bam" kinda thing - but it never fully regestered that it might mean something. What it means is up in the air, along with his motives for helping Kagome. But by the end of this chapter I was feeling really bad for him! Its amazing how you were able to make the bad guy have so much depth as to make the readers sympathize with him! Cant wait for more!

I am kicking my self mentally for not reading you story sooner. I had seen it posted but I didnt know if it would be my cup of tea. Boy was I wrong. This story is amazing. It is full of suspense and so well written that I can't wait for more. Keep up the good work.

Excellent! I had a feeling that Lyka chick was bad news. Theres crazy obsessed girls in the future and apparently in the past.

Amazing work. Is this going to be a love triangle? I really do hope so because although I love the chemistry between Sesshomaru and Kagome, Nah Rah Ku and Kagome seem to have burning chemistry between them.

<3 Looking forward to another update, and to more of your work.

Have an amazing day!

I am highly impressed by your story. I have taken a few archeology classes since Antrophology is my second concentration, and I like to see a story that can take all those skills back tp the forefront of my brain lol

. Eagerly awaiting for another update!

OOOHhh That BIATCH!!!! Glad shes gone!!!

You know that I think some part of me wanted Nah Rah ku to be a good guy, or at least....decent. Glad to know its the case. Will this be like love triangle :) ?????? I hope so!!!! :D

CANT WAIT for the next chapter Freya!!!!

Another amazing update! Thank you so much Freya <3.

Wow, I really do like the chemistry between Na Rah Ku and Kagome. Do you think he could be possibly developing feelings for her? I mean, even if Sesshomaru is possessed -- wouldn't Na Rah Ku be sort of like his dual personality?

You have me at the edge of my seat to read more, it's completely captivating. I'm actually looking forward to Sesshomaru's confusion, and Kagome's next meeting with Na Rah Ku.

O_O

I am feeling bad for Kagome...poor girl

I am completely enthralled by your story, I have been with you for quite a few chapter updates but I simply could not think of anything to say that would truly convey my love for this story, nor anything i could say that would truly be of any value to you. I still have nothing, but I do wish to impart upon you my devotion to this story. I wish to see it to the end. The waiting, I am not fond of, nor am I that good with it, but I try my best to keep from pestering you. Your story is probably the most unique and original story I have read in a very long time. I partly wish that it could be a published book one i could keep upon my shelf. Every new puzzle piece and revelation about the temple and its history, every interaction between Kagome, Sesshoumaru, and Nah Ra Ku, every plot twist, and every piece of smut between Kagome and Nah Ra Ku(two thumbs up), is a testament to your skill as a writer. I hope the sharing this bit of my thoughts on your marvelous story with you, will lead to a much faster update. If not, I will still be here waiting until you do.

Ahhh! Epic! I was so happy to see this in my inbox today! LOVED the interaction between the Thief and Kagome at the end- I wouldn't have expected him to help her either.

I just love the characterization in this story- I feel as if I could know these people, they're that fleshed out.

Just amazing!

Thank you!

*dies*  MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE  I WANT MORE!

this is an amazing story..  definately one that should become a classic *nods*

Definitely this fanfic is up there with Cross of Blades by Striking Falcon. Truly unique and well written. A breath of fresh air! :D

Arg your story just keeps getting better and better and my intrigue continues to grow! I'm so elated to find such a story with such depth and mystery and substance. It definitely is hard to come across. Hope to see you update soon!
