Mae and Styx are cute. I am usually not into love at first sight but I like this one. They met when they were 8 & 11, right after Mae had a very emotional event for the first time. Styx cannot stop thinking about her even after 15 years.

Styx is a total alpha. Despite him not talking because of his stutter and using ASL to communicate, everyone paid respect to him. He can be too territorial that made me wanna punch him, but understandable since he lived in the MC world.

But I am more intrigued by Flame. This fucker plays with knives and cut and kill in every unimaginable way possible for entertainment and gets aroused by doing it. Yet cannot be touched from the waist down. I want him..... Someone should drag me back to therapy immediately. Thank you.

TW: The rape/child abuse/pedophilia are done by the antagonist, not the main characters/hero
