Beth Sabatino
The Sacrificial Lamb, Ch 7

I love this Bella for so many reasons. First of all, she is smart. She is always analyzing and planning. She saw immediately the oddity of James saying Edward's name after all this time of everyone painstakingly avoiding saying names. She was smart enough to hesitate and realize that he had fed that name to her. Also, we see now that she is plotting her escape, and it is rather humorous that Edward's chastisement of James' absence put a kink in her plan.

I am so glad that you don't have her falling all over Edward. Her ultimate distrust of him, because of association, is the smart frame of mind to be in, no matter what kindness he has shown to her.

Finally, if I was her, I would start to wonder if Edward wasn't some sort of undercover agent or something. We know he is not, and he has his own personal motivations, but it would be a theory to explain his kindness in the face of the treachery.

Another fantastic chapter, even though you left me hanging!
