Noncon, captive/captor, death, decaying bodies,medieval time period, gothic vibes, dark fantasy, violence, death of a child, attempted murder
Enosh has long since abandoned mankind to their petty destructions. Tragedy and pain have shaped him and he no longer leaves his home which is also a shadow of its former self. He falls into insta-lust then insta-love with Ada, a human woman. He breaks her legs (she doesn't feel pain but it prevents her from escaping him), keeps her chained to his throne, and punishes her. But Enosh has a libertine vibe where he comes off more like a sinful lover, a misguided bad boy than the psychopathic captor that he is. Ada is a strong individual and though initially, she fights Enosh tooth and nail she soon realises that she can accomplish a greater good by his side as his queen. She also glimpses slivers of goodness buried deep in the powerful being that is her captor that give her a tentative hope. It ends in a cliffhanger with Enosh believing things that just were not true, his past playing a big factor in his distrust and also placing Ava in a terrible predicament it’s looking bleak that’s for sure. I can’t wait to get started on book two to see where we go from here.
