This is a collection of a one shot, a follow up to the one shot, a bonus extra to that one shot and an additional unrelated one shot. The book itself doesn't do a good job of explaining it is two stories which I think should have maybe been a bit more clear the back of the book doesn't even mention the demon harem story line. If your going into this know in the middle you will just get a totally unrelated story and then return to the past story.

The stories are fun and the kinds of stories I would love to see more of from Yuri. Fun supernatural romance with an element of action are my total jam so I really enjoyed this even if really they are just a collection of short stories and not a particular wide breath of them. I did find switching casts in the middle of the story to be a bit jarring and would have rather had one whole story then the unrelated story as a bonus comic but regardless both sets of characters work and the story overall is fun.

It is not a particularly deep piece of fiction and it doesn't do a ton of world building or anything, ideally I would have loved to see a longer form version of the title story that gave even more time to the couple, I like a faster burn but since it is short the faster burn is still really just there at the end even if it is fast for a yuri manga. I recommend it to anyone looking for a slice of super natural lesbian fun that's more of a brain off moment.
