I agree with Kathy - total Ack! on the (literal) cliffhanger. You indeed are the Queen of Evil. (And I mean this in a nice way.)

I bow before your Evil Cliffhanger Writing Skill.
How will our stalwart heroes escape from this conundrum? Can Clark save Lois, and what the hey, if he saves Lois he'll probably have to save Trask as well? Won't that blow his cover?
I love the angst of the previous part, where Lois confesses her romantic mishaps. As a previous poster said, this fic is moving along quite quickly, which I like. So Lois has confessed, Clark has confessed, the bad guys are there, the kryptonite is there - but surely you can make this go for more chapters, right? Right?
