I'm a bit late with the comments, but I just had to say what an awesome fic this is! I loved how you did the opposite of The Blue Door, with the werewolf insatiability thing being very real. And I loved how it wasn't just Bill cheating on Fleur, but the two of them caring very much about each other and working out this rather, um, unconventional relationship in order to satisfy both their needs. And although I think your Fleur is awesome, I loved that she wasn't perfect and could still be jealous of Lavender, even going to the extent of sending her back to the institution, and then eventually accepting that Bill needs her.
And man, the "rehab facility" really made me shudder. I've always suspected that there were sanatoriums where wealthy wizards lock up their unwanted werewolf relatives. Yours is even more insidious, because they don't just keep the girls locked up, they try to brainwash them, too.
And I loved Lavender so much, and how she kicked the alpha's ass, and how she was more than a match for Bill. And loved the clueless male werewolves who had hard time grasping that (1) there are female werewolves, and (2) that the "birds" have the same needs that they do. And I absolutely loved how the pack comes together to rescue one of their own, despite Bowden's problems with Lavender, and I loved even more that the girls rescued themselves!
Amd I think those feminist_rage people ought to have granted you membership on the basis having such a kick-ass female character, if nothing else. ;)
