And this:
He whimpered into her skin, a low, mournful keening as he rocked her.
is why I shouldn't take a break at work and read stories like this. You write them too well and it makes me all teary at my desk. Which can be a bit awkward. Good thing my co-workers are used to me being a little odd. :)
Anyway, oh beautiful.
(I hate to say it, but I was a little confused why wounds would open on his skin since they only do that if he's recently been in a fight and then encounters her power...has Logan been doing some fighting I don't know about?? Hmmm???)
Also, LOVE that he already knows she's his mate. Amazing.

Oh, thank god.
The sheer vengeance Logan reigned down on that bastard was magnificent! I get so blood-thirsty when one of them is harmed, lol.
This chapter was totally loaded with emotion. Incredible.

wow. now that was a great reaction! I LOVE how logan tore Jose apart! I really really wanted him too! Can't wait for more!!!!!
Author's Response: Oh yeah. I think it would have been just wrong to write this story without letting Logan tear the guy to shreds. Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Oh MAN! What a way for them to discover each other's powers. Awesome!
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you liked. They can definitely stop worrying about the whole mutant issue now :P

Awww. On the one hand, it would have been so awesome to watch kickass!Marie, I dunno, shoot Jose or get him thrown in jail or some such, but this too is satisfying. I love Logan's breathless "oh" when he sees her body. When you get really badly hurt, you don't or can't necessarily scream; sometimes the pain is so bad that you don't have the breath.
My only quibble, and it's a really small one, is that I've never thought Marie's power actually makes wounds open on the skin but that the cuts that opened on Logan's face on the Statue were the wounds he'd taken from Sabretooth during their fight. They just opened back up, after starting to close, because his healing was being drained away.
But, you know, that's really my interpretation, and everyone has their own. :)
Author's Response: Don't worry; Marie will get her own brand of justice, both for herself and Jose's other victims. It may not be the violent retribution Wolverine got, but I still consider it pretty kickass :). I started to write some long drawn out scene where Logan ruthlessly tortures the guy and Marie delivers the killing blow, but that just didn't seem true to the characters or what their emotions would be at the time. I think Logan was just so far gone, in such shock/denial, that he couldn't do much of anything but slash the hell out of the guy and get back to Marie. Interesting about Marie's powers. I never thought of that, but it makes sense.... damn. I might have to think of a way to redo that scene. Darnit, why do you have to go and be all logical and stuff?

Amazingly written, but i was expecting a long tortuous description of Jose's death, and him begging for mercy from the Wolverine... unless Logan killed the wrong guy?
Author's Response: I think Logan (or Wolverine?) was just too far gone to even think about things like torturing the guy in that moment. He was in total shock from finding Marie dead, and he just slashed and slashed and then got back to her as quick as he could. But don't worry... as you'll see in the latest chapter, there will be plenty of time for him to torture Jose, and plenty of time for Jose to beg for mercy.

I am sorry but I still continually sit back and marvel at the emotion and depth you are able to put into so few words in this piece. These last three chapters are strikingly powerful. I adore adore the conversation between Logan and God - that's just freakin' awesome!
Now we just need Marie to save Logan. Still loving it!
Author's Response: Thanks so much. Yeah, I don't think Logan's the type of guy to take flak off anybody, not even God. He calls'em like he sees'em ;). Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Oh. My. God.
Fantastic chapters. Love his musings about wanting to care for Marie in a primal way. Love Ororo's "fresh-as-rain" scent...such a nice touch. The irony of Logan wishing Marie shared his senses, which will likely happen but not in any way he would have hoped.
But this:
She doesn’t deserve this. Are You up there, You bastard? After all the shit You put me through, You fuckin’ owe me one. Take me instead. My life for hers. You hear that, bub? My life for hers.
His life for hers. The first prayer he’d ever had answered.
You're breaking my heart with this.
Sorry about harassing you for updates in my prior review. You're right, six chapters in one night *should* be enough, but of course it never will be! I'll always want more, until the story is over, and then I'll be all pissed off because it's over. ;-) There's not pleasing a rabid fan, so please don't feel pressured or anything. Unless it makes you post faster. Because then it's okay. ;-)
Author's Response: I love having readers who actually catch moments of dramatic irony like that. It makes me want to try to be a better writer. So thanks for that :D. And I think that's exactly how Logan would pray. He doesn't take shit from anybody, not even the Big Guy himself. And don't worry, lol, you weren't harassing at all, it was just funny. I'd probably post more if I wasn't prepping for finals. Eww.

YES! Get em Wolverine! Oh, I cannot wait to see what comes next! The moment he found her in the dumpster was so powerful. Oh. That was all he could say. damn.
Author's Response: Yeah, I think he was in total shock/denial right there. I mean, really, what the hell else is there to say when you see something like that? I can't even imagine how overwhelming that would be!
