I feel terrible, not having checked in before now, but it's great to see this update.

Edward and Bella sound like they need a heart to heart about a change of expectations, maybe. Funny how that can happen. :)

Hoping your experiences during this time haven't been horrid and that you are all well and safe!

I’ve been following this story off and on since you first published the prologue. I am excited to see where your characters go next!

I’m waiting for the day when Bella catches on to whatever inside information that Edward has! I’m so happy you are continuing this fic! Keep up the great work!

I was doing a random check to see if there was an update and there was! I'm so glad you came back to the story.

I am so happy that you decide to start posting aging

Hi! I just came across your story and read all the available chapters. I love the relationship between Edward and Bella, they have a friendship and love. I hope that Bella finds some confidence, maybe a purpose with her education within the royal family. I don’t want her to abandon herself while she falls in love. Excited to read the next chapter as you update!

Oh I am so happy you updated I can’t believe I missed it and only just seen it

I honestly think Esme can’t have children so Edward will be next in line, him wanting children is throwing me through a loop I don’t know where you are going with this. I can only assume he wanted to lock Bella into being with him as he expects her to run

Waiting for more

Yoo Hooooo, where are those updates, Lady. Hope you are healthy & safe.

I've been re-reading thru to remember... this one is new to me now. I watched the Netflix Royal story, The Crown, & wow, it didn't create any envy in me. What a difficult life. Poor Edward & Bella. I do hope you come back to this soon.

I’m enjoying this story. I can’t wait to see how things turn out for Bella and Edward. I know he said there are no fairytale endings but I’m hoping they at least get a happy one.

I love this story. I love the format, the tabloid and comments. How incredibly creative. I cannot wait to read more. I am going to assume the list Bella saw was a list of “acceptable wives” for Edward? Well he sounds a lot like Prince Harry. He did not give a rats ass either. LOL Thanks for writing and stay safe. I cannot wait to read more!

I am so excited about this story! I know I don't have a login on fanfiction but wanted to let you know how good I find reading your story! I hope that you are healthy and safe in NJ with all the Covid19 stuff going around.
I hope to read more chapters really soon and that you do not loose your mojo/muse for writing.
Hope to see (read) from you soon!
Take care, stay safe, and most of all stay healthy!
Thank you

Thanks for a great update! I missed these two. I don’t remember if there is more to Edward’s certainty that Esme definitely isn’t pregnant.

Lovely story
