”I’d been born to rule. And I was going to claim my place in blood.”

I’m going to keep this one short and sweet because I just finished ”Cursed Fates” and am not okay at all…

I LOVED getting to see the Darcy + Tory bond a bit with the Heirs in this novel — it was a refreshing change in dynamic.

I also enjoyed seeing Xavier + Darius bond with their mother more in this novel as well!

The rest of the novel was painful though…I having nothing else to say about that (I am currently trying to wipe everything bad that happened from my memory).

ੈ✩‧₊˚

P.S. BlueLance better reunite in the next book. ♡

this was my favorite book of the series so far. the writing has just kept getting better and better, with the exception of a few cringy parts lol. 
i still loved this book. there was so much angst throughout and it was the first time in this series where i was actually heartbroken for the characters and i think i’m finally getting to the point where i’m starting to love them. 
the ending was also in insane. as always

This series is starting to really piss me off. It's still amazing but nothing good happens ever and it's getting so hard to read. Can there just be some happiness...please. 

I need to take a break and read a standalone or something because I'm too invested in these characters. 

After taking a break by reading a couple standalones to mend my broken heart, I confirm I'm still obsessed and in love with this series, I just hate reading about the characters I adore being in so much pain 😭

I know this is a dark romance, but damn i need some levity in these books. I think they are legit making me anxious. I love the world, but this is honestly hurting me to read.
