Holy Crap that was amazing. I am at a loss for words. You write a like true romantic novelist. 'Not able to rewrite it' my foot...this was just as fantastic as whatever the last version was. That story was so hot, I felt like I cheated on my boyfriend. Shame on you, SHAME on you!!! Writing such delicious panty blowing masterpieces that'll make a woman feel guilty for reading. *swoon* I'm like so addicted right now and going through some major withdrawl symtoms. I must have my next lemon fix, I need my need lemon fix woman.

Oh and beside the lemons the plot the detail, the feelings is just so overwhelming. I dare say you've managed what no other here have...make someone feel sorry for that sicko Naraku. I didnt think that was possible. but you managed it. WOW I must say though your writing remind me a little of Christine Feehan. The way you have Sesshoumaru and Naraku pine for the innocence of Kagome and all. whew...I just....your.....again I'm speechless.

Duchess of Darkness...D.O.D

I must admit that I laughed maniacally when kikyou died. And then Kagome was so hardcore and brutal when she stopped that fight that I fell in love with her character all over again. I love the way you write and I love your stories. I can't wait to read some more.

Oh my gosh . . .  amazing! I didn't realize how close I was sitting to the screen until I got to the end! Hahaha XP Well, I'm super excited for your next chapter. Hope it's soon!

YEAAAHHHHH!! Naraku is dead!!! ... I hope... And YEAAAAHHHHH!! Sessho and Kago did it!!! :D

What a great chapter!! luv it!! :D

I love this chapter. I actually feel bad for Naraku. As twisted as he was, all he wanted was some love. I wonder what's going to happen now that the tachi know the truth about Kagome's disappearance. I have a feeling that everyone will turn their backs on Inuyasha. Usually, I root for him, but this time, I hope he gets his, especially when he finds out that Kagome is now mated to Sesshomaru. I know you let me know what happens to him in the end since this is far from over, but I'm waiting to see what twists you're going to put into the finale of this story. Can't wait to see what happens next. Make Inuyasha pay and give him hell.

okay i wanted you to know that i should be studying right now, and i'm not i'm totally over here fanning myself b/c of how hot that chapter was! and i cant wait to see what happens next. silly kagura, your too dark and spidery for puppy to way you! but kagome's got him! nenner nenner nenner! okay i've got that out of me now. *wiggles update bribery c0okies at you* More please!

Loved this chapter! To be wrapped in his darkness is such a heady feeling.  Love it!

Hope the epidural works, Amber, and helps with the pain. Disk problems are not easy to deal with, I know.

Love the new story, and can't wait to see where you're taking us!!!

I only found this story today & I look forward to what will happen next. I do have a couple of questions. What are Miroku & Sango going to do now that they know the truth??? are they going to stay with Inu now that they know,without a doubt                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             ,he can't be trusted??? Will they ask to travel with Sessh,as they also have no need for the Jewel or Kagome's ability to see the shards. They truly care for her & they even protected Shippo while Kagome was gone.

They also want Naraku dead badly. For Sango she wants him dead for killing her entire family & village & uses her baby brother as a puppet.Miroku wants & needs Naraku dead asap as the curse of the Kazanna(?),the void in his hand,killed his grandfather,father & will eventually kill him...if Naraku doesn't die & Miroku has a child with anyone before his own death,he will only be passing on this curse to any child of his.Shippo is still a kid but lost his parents because of all this.

 I can't wait to see what happens next & I hope Sessh & Kagome get together & get Shippo before anything happens to him. 

Ewwww, the icky icky spider wants Kagome to LOVE HIM?! Eww, eww, eww.  That's just so wrong on so many levels.  I give him an A for effort, though.  He did a lot of the work for Sesshoumaru by giving Kagome enough information to turn her away from Inuyasha.  

Another fantastic story from you and I can't wait to see where you take it.

I really love this! I like the way you portrayed Naraku. Very refreshing from how he is usually shown. Can't wait for the next chapter :)

Feel better Love!!! I have missed the whole "you logged in" recognition I get from you. LOL!!! I love how this started. To see into the mind of evil and somewhat understand his thinking, yet still being brave enough to face it head on. So awesome! And I know how much you love Inu, but damnit Amber, he has got to get his in a bad way, seriously. And for Sess to come to the rescue, I wonder how he will reveal to her what he wants, this will be interesting. Anyway, take care hun and I will check on you tomorrow evening.

i love this story already. i really like the twist of narku wanting kagome to love him. i haven't come across a story that has narku wanting love from like this. can't wait for the next post.

Oh my gosh!!!!!!! Why are all your stories so good?! Please update soon! This is amazing, definitely one of my faves! XD Looove!!!!!!

As usual, your stories are very intriguing and this one is no exception. Kagome is right in this one. Death is too good for Inuyasha. He'd only end up in hell with that bitch, which I think is also what Kikyou wants as well. He has some serious lessons to learn before all this is over. But that's what he gets: some hard painful lessons and Kikyou suffering in hell alone. Ooo, can't wait to see the rest.

Now this is a fic I could--and most assuredly will--obsess over! You've written it so beautifully that I was a little shocked when I got to the end, thinking where's the rest of it? That you managed to suck me in so thoroughly is a feat in and of itself; I don't ususally get so engrossed, so congrats for that!

Anyway, you portray Naraku's dark intelligence very well, as well as his reasons for wanting Kagome. This has to be the first time I've ever seen Naraku written out as more than the evil hanyou that we all know him to be, and the fresh play on Kagome being kidnapped is very refreshing; it sets your story apart from the rest.

Awesome job, and I'll be waiting eagerly for the next chapter!

I love this story already!!! And I can't wait for the next chapter!! You're great!! :D

I like it, how you describe Naraku! Even if he is an asshole of a hanyou, you show his other side as well. The one, which desired Kikyou for so long. The betrayal he felt. And the same position he found himsel like Kagome.

And I am really happy to see, that Kagome did not fall for it. :D Good girl. :D And Inuyasha... well... I still wish him death. I hate that guy and I can't help it. Actually, he is a good guy... but if Kikyou is nearby... well... then I wish him a painful death. xD

However... very good story! And I will wait for the update, which is, hopefully, soon. ;P

*hugs*

Can't wait to see where you take this!  It's got such a nice twist in it.

I must say...that was another fantastic story in the making miss lady. I like it...no i loved it. It was refreshing, new, and completely orginal in my opinion. You seem to have captured the desire of all the dark souls within this chapter and the reasoning behind it all.

I'm like a major fan of all your work and will be waiting impatiently for your next post on this story.

D.O.D
