Thanks everyone for reviewing! Your feedback is greatly appreciated and helps me a lot at improving my writing.
@marie: I understand that some people would feel about the story that way. This is why I put a big fat author's note at the beginning of the story. Quote: "The country in which the story is set is fictitious - it does not exist and does not relate to any real places, real religions or real political situations. I have never been to an Arabic country, and the background I'm using for my story is that of the tales of the Arabian Nights - it is a fairytale place, no less and no more than that." Once again: my story is NOT RELATED to any REAL COUNTRIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST, I don't claim any realism. This is a FAIRY TALE for adults, which is based on another work of FICTION. I'm sorry if the story upsets you, but I must say you've been warned ;-)
@spikestheman: I have two WIP at the moment and I'm trying to update one of them every week. As you've probably noticed, English isn't my first language, so I don't post any chapters without having my beta readers check them. They are doing a great job without ever getting anything but my thanks, and they all have their RL jobs and families, too. Sometimes it just takes a little longer to update. So far, I have the story drafted up to Chapter 7, so there's a lot to look forward to.
To everyone who is enjoying this story, thanks for all the praise, and keep reviewing, I'm very interested in what you think!

I have to say that you write truly capturing stories and have a really exciting way to develop the story line and the characters. I really liked 'Roses for Lucifer' and also this story has a great beginning, that makes you grave for more. Although I have to say that I too think that Buffy reacts a bit too easy according to her situation. I'm missing a little more resistance from her part at least for the first time.
For the sake of the story let's say, she only chose to cooperate because she wanted something, which however does not really explain how she gets off on it, or even feels like jealousy.
But that doesn't change the fact, that I will be anxiously waiting for you to show mercy and update fast, cause after all you are a very talented writer.

Yours, Novella

I loved this chapter. I can't wait to see what is going to happen next. Maybe Spike will be easy on her because of the Buffy tears. I really want to know what he is thinking, because he seems to like her. Please update soon. ;)
