This was a gorgeous novella. It was rich, dark and decadent, like chocolate. The way the characters were fleshed out made them feel so human (no pun intended), the writing style and that ending! Truly beautiful. (Also, bi polyamorus vampires getting their revenge on their abuser? Yes please!)
Graphic: Death, Blood, Domestic abuse, Emotional abuse, Confinement, Sexual content, and Murder
Moderate: Physical abuse and Gaslighting
Minor: Death of parent and Sexual assault
