She stood, eyes closed, every other sense attuned to him as he circled and stalked her. To coin a Sahara-term, you're offering pleases the Uterus Dinosaur. You make it go rharuuuurrr....

So many good lines in this, so many incandescently wonderful lines that make you make helpless noises of awe. Too many to quote--though I am tempted to do what so many mention and paste the entire fic. You are such a magnificent writer; your fics are irresistible, unforgettable and we can only hope that you'll share many, many more fruit of your genius with us.

Author's Response: LOL, my son is very much into a book called "My Oh My Oh Dinosaur," and now I can't read it without waiting for the Uterus Dinosaur to make an appearance!

Okay, this was sexy as all get out. A perfect compliment to the previous chapter. But I also loved how sweet it is--like how he watched her sleeping and tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear. The line about wanting to cuddle and corrupt her all at once was perfect too.

BTW, thanks for the Slurpee idea. I needed a double for this chapter.

Author's Response: Thanks so much for reviewing! Yeah, sweet Logan is definitely a keeper.

HEAT ALERT! Wow.
Also, poor Marie (and Logan). Her powers always seem to switch on at the most inopportune moments.
Loved this chapter; can't wait for next one. Keep up the great work! :D

Author's Response: Yes, I am quite mean to poor Marie and Logan. But all the pathos just makes the happy ending that much happier, right? Thanks for reviewing!

:-O xXx

Author's Response: :-D

Very nicely done, you have to write something v good, slightly different and with an edge to grab my attention – just getting down and dirty doesn’t’ cut it! I’ve read far too much over the years and so many times [especially with smut] it just all sounds the same. glad you didn't get them to wrap it up because i really liked the pace and the attention to detail at the start, the master/pupil, experience/inexperience shone through with the way you started off with her back to him and it worked really well. ‘the way he was touching her was not calculated or planned.’ Loved this line, showed that on some level her instincts knew a) what she needed/wanted and b) that he was the one who could deliver!

From the stop through to the touch - again really well done and great to read. As well as ‘undiagnosed feelings’ there’s Logan not knowing, Marie not telling, all the misunderstandings and emotion. Two lines i loved:-
‘he wanted to cuddle and corrupt her all at once’ This one because it's showing the two sides of logan to not only the reader but to himself as well.
‘Daylight comes and you’re just a whore to her’ this one because it throws you right back to the beginning - a reminder to all of the reason it started.
Looking forward to the rest x

Author's Response: Thank you so much for such a lovely, detailed, review. Yes, I definitely know what you mean. So much smut is forgettable, I think that's why I didn't really worry about such lengthy non-smut chapters...the build-up is the best part. Glad the pace was okay. Yeah, I hadn't really thought about it at the start, but I really liked the tension between Marie's rules and Logan's experience -- it kind of kept the upper hand shifting back and forth between them, so Logan wasn't completely dominant and Marie just along for the ride. And I'm you didn't find it really irritating the way Marie stopped the action -- I was quite peeved with her myself, but for me if their mutations aren't key to the storyline you're just reading any story about any two people. Thanks again for pointing out the lines you particularly liked. You probably know by now I'm a big fan of Sexy!Logan vs. Protective!Logan and of course saddling Logan with giant self-esteem issues. Making him a sorta-whore was kind of fun in the end -- as a character he's always so confident about sex, it was an interesting way to make him a little insecure in the bedroom. I do so love causing these two distress!

As a buddy from grad school used to say, "Pant, pant." (I mean he would literally say it, not do it. ;) )

BTW, let me commend you for avoiding the dreaded word "ministrations," which I find to be the anti-sexy.

Author's Response: "Pant, pant" is quite a compliment! Yeah, I think we all have certain words that get to us in a very anti-sexy way. I was determined not to say anything about Marie's "core." Usually I try not to actually name any genitals or parts thereof, but this smut called out for a little less propriety than usual.

oh my god! *_*
He alternated between admiring her -- so adorable and fuckable that he wanted to cuddle and corrupt her all at once - Loved that line n_n

Author's Response: Glad you liked that line. :-) Thanks so much for your review!
