Awww, this was so sweet. Well, not the part with her...love bite, but the way he wanted to take care of her, and the bath he ran for her and whatnot. I just love Abe. I can only imagine what he would think, knowing that Bethany used the bubble that way. LOL. Wouldn't that be handy for underwater felatio? LOL. Yeah, I'm a perv I know. LOL. I'm sort of jealous of Bethany for that skill. Poor thing, I can only imagine how large Red's...*ahem* member is, and I can't imagine that huge thing going anywhere near there, and fitting even somewhat comfortably. And kudos to Bethany for the felatio by the way. A very brave undertaking for the same reasons. ^.^ I'm glad his father wasn't upset at him for the nooky, and I am also glad that he will try to research the biting/not remembering it afterwards thing. Maybe it has something to do with the demon part of him, and mating and posessiveness or something of that nature? Just guessing. ^.^ I'm sure that I am forgetting something I wanted to comment on.....stupid memory. Oh well, this was fantastic as usual, and I can't wait to read more. XXOO

I was so excited to see that you'd updated, and you made it worth the wait! (Sorry if this review is sorta short, a horse broke two fingers for me and now they're taped together, but here goes my attempt at "hunt & peck") Anyway, what was so fantastic here is that we got to see Red and Bethany as a couple, the feelings between them are evolving and I love the irony of how Red's overall approach to what he feels for her is differing from the prior "do this, cuz that's what I want you to do" to more letting her choose the path she takes, knowing it will lead to him, but just when we see him doing that, we get this very primal, possessive bite to the shoulder that he obviously couldn't help doing. Again, juxtaposing those two things was a real thrill for me to read, good fiction and good fiction writers do that sort of thing! I'm also anxious to find out just what that means too! You always come up with such wonderful and meaningful answers to the stuff you write and I'm going to be thinking about what the next one might be all night in regards to the bite!:-)

And, Red telling her "I just wanna feel your mouth" was sooooo sexy! The whole oral sex scene was daring and fun and hot, and you succeeded in giving us that without making the emotion around it seem out of place at the same time! It was wonderful and I've read it now about 3 times!lol

So, keep going...though I know what your schedule is likely now...I'm going through the same thing on my end! Great job again and sorry for the "spotty" review...but I think I fixed all my typos!:-) More please! What does it mean when "the demon of love" can't keep his teeth out of you?lol

*jumps up and down squeeing excitedly* This. Is. Awesome. You are amazing. This story is *insert descriptive word here* I felt as though I were watching a movie instead of reading a story. I am SO glad Grace Lee reccomended this story to me. I have only read one other HB story, hers, and they both are just wonderful. You have HB down pat, I love Bethany. She is such an adorable character. I really feel like this is a lost part of the HB story...if that makes sense. LOL. Your descriptions, the creatures, the missions, everything is divine. I really hate that douch nozzle Glen though, but I know we are supposed to. ^.^ I'm glad they finally did "it". *giggles like a school girl* I figured there was a good chance of it seeing as how there were 9 chapters when I set out to read it....I love how HB is always warm, I love that you don't forget about his tail, and it's cute how it always wraps around some part of Bethany. I love how they can't sleep well unless they are next to each other. I love HB himself. I always found him adorable, and witty and devestatingly handsome, and in your story it's no different. ^.^ It makes me want to watch the movies again....or wait impatiently for the next installment of your delightful story. ^.^ I love Abe too, I have always held a soft spot for his gentleness, and his intelligence. Thank you so much for writing this absolutely wonderful story, and don't you ever stop writing it. You can't. You're stuck writing this thing forever, because you've gotten me hopelessly hooked luv. I can't wait to read the next chapter, and I really mean that, I can't wait. LOL. I will be checking back here obsessively for updates. ^.^ XXOO

OK, so I just read your reviews, and some of them on the first page made me mad. I feel that the pacing of your story is very appropriate, not everyone jumps into the sack upon first sight. It is nice to read a story that progresses as a normal (LOL) relationship would. And I absolutly HATE it when people accuse all OFC's as being Mary Sue's, I mean seriously, just because we don't want to use an existing character, does NOT mean that the one we create is a Mary Sue. Bethany is far from one by the way, she is complex, and has her quirks, basically opposite of a Mary Sue. She is not perfect, she gets angry, she has good days and bad days, and anybody who thinks that she is can go to hell. I hate it when people offer their criticisms with no merit or basis, and no way of improving if they think that's what is needed. What really bakes my lasagna, is when you click on their name and they haven't published anything themselves. If they don't like the story, there are plenty more t read on here. And someone critisizing because it isn't slash? Seriously? I am one hundred percent certain you said this story is NOT slash, so I am confused as to how someone could complain about that. I really don't see HB that way anyways. I do read slash once in a great while, but like Grace said I think, I think it makes the most sense when the character is already gay or bi. Sorry about my rant. I just had to let you know how I felt about those reviews, although I doubt they got you as worked up as I am right now, and it's not even my story. LOL. XXOO

Oh, beautiful!:-) Had to read this one twice too! I think you truly captured that moment! I love all the mentions of Red's intensity being "a little frightening" and especially the mention of him biting her shoulder so hard, because he isn't just an ordinary "man" and you can't write him like he is. However, writing him as if he were some type of other species would just be...well, "eeeeeeew! ick! *skin crawls*"...at least for me, anyway. But I'm impressed by how well you handle things like working his tail into the moment without it being weird, and again by how you show him as being almost too hard to handle, but able to be reined in before he bites her arm off or something.lol That's perfect! Add into all of this the element of virgin vs. well endowed lover, and it's a chapter that sends the most fantastic chills down your spine!:-) Great job!

I said before that I'm aware of the popularity of slash in this fandom, but really, I like this is SO MUCH better than any other Hellboy fics I've read! Thank you for sharing, and for your email!:-) Will respond soon!

Okay, I admit, I was reading your story in out of order chunks, so now that I've read the entire thing, I'm reviewing it again!:-) Bethany is a fabulous OFC! I love her back story, and her special ability, and she fits into Red so very well! You've done a better job with her than I actually think they did with matching Liz to Red in the movies!

And I've read that last scene over and over about 4 times now! It's not just the obvious cheap thrills that keep me coming back, it's the successful way you've conveyed the need, desire, hope and reluctance of both characters that stays with me the most! The conflicting emotions were all so very real and you portrayed them in a way that every reader can easily relate to!

I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one who sees Red, or OFC's this way!:-)

Okay, so when is the next installment coming?:-) I finally had time to check out your story, been wanting to since it seems that fics in this genre that are not slash are difficult to come by! Not that I dislike slash, but personally, I just don't think it works well with a character like HB. But I love this story! I love how he is with Bethany, and I love the way you work in the differences between them physically while juxtaposing them to how they feel emotionally, it's a really nice "we're all the same on the inside" kinda theme that I'm enjoying! And all the anticipation and interruptions whenever they get close to having sex! Wow, you're so much stronger than I am, I give in way to quickly, but the way you've stretched it all out is so titallating and you can really feel their frustrations, needs and hopes! Great job! Plus, I love the idea of random female agents coming onto Red because they're "curious," wow, that's a oneshot waiting to happen!:-)

Thanks for reading and also for reviewing my story! I am slowly working on Chapter 3, hope to have it up soon! I also hope you've got more posted soon, because I'm totally hooked now!:-)
