The ending. The ending OMG. What a fabulous, chilling twist. My jaw literally dropped; I was so engrossed in the beauty of your writing I'd forgotten all about the implied second pairing. I should've paid more attention to that "recent kill".

I loved the meticulous, ruthless way Lucius planned his vengeance. Always love all the detail you put into your stories. It gives them depth, making them stand out. This was truly remarkable.
