i normally hate harem storylines, but this one had me surprisingly hooked. I hated the pope, he was creepy, but the other two felt like good genuine leads. If Cass ends up the male lead I'd be happy. But the pope was annoying and creepy. My main criticism was that Ariel was always 'annoyed' or 'scared' of getting involved with the male leads, but then later in the story (while she is still annoyed and/or scared of them), she says being surrounded by them is peaceful and fun? While actively trying to get away from them in different aspects of the story? idk.
i wish they went more into depth about how guilty ern felt about being with another woman, even if he was slowly realising that it was gabriella mentally. She's still, technically, a different girl. In all, this story feels like the second part, the first of which we will never get to read.
