Zyane, Sylus, Rafayel, and Xavier are characters from an Otomo ARPG called Love and Deepspace. Their characteristics are similar to the MMCs in this book. I just wanted to clarify this so there’s no confusion in my review. 

Uri reminded me so much of Sylus’s Mephisto.Trystan? He’s so Sylus with his intense charm, yet dramatic as Rafayel, and had me laughing out loud with his antics.Nerethus, on the other hand, is like Xavier—calm, steady, and secretly lethal. And then there’s Aleks, who’s giving me all the mean Zayne energy from Tower of Secrets but with Sylus’s filthy mouth—Elsie driving him mad was absolutely hilarious! The smut? Holy fuck! Every scene was scorching, but the banter and chemistry kept the story alive. Elsing is such a badass witch, and her first kiss with Aleks had me screaming—it was like those epic kdrama moments that make you squeal and curl your toes. The pacing was so fast and immersive, I barely noticed I was flying through a thick book. With the perfect mix of action, humor, and heartfelt moments (yes, I cried), plus a harem of swoon-worthy mates, Elsie is one lucky witch!And that ending—ugh! EC, take all the time you need for book 2 because I’ll wait until the end of time for it. 

Thanks EC  for this ARC in exchange for my honest thoughts
