The King's Beast, Vol. 1 by Rei Tōma

5.0

This was a fantastic read that I picked up at the library, because I thought the art was pretty and it turns out the plot is as interesting as the art is lovely.

It's sort of a murder mystery, with a budding enemies-to friends-to lovers relationship growing but as of volume one the prince doesn't know that his beast servant is a girl and is under the impression she's a man and so that leads us to "Is he going to have a bi panic?" Which is what I'm always excited for, or just to see how that relationship builds.
