This story has so much lost potential. For the dark themes of sacrifice, cruelty, and loss it has, it doesn't show enough blood or true anguish imo. It just progressed into a story with a vague vampire setting where everyone ends up gay. The father also seems a bit too cartoonish and cliche of a villain, some of his lines and actions are just so annoyingly cheesy.
It also annoys me how the ML who's supposedly so yearning (btw apart from the scent and all, we never truly see the build up to these strong feelings in their highschool years) never really shows up at the right time to protect his kin; he's all words, but barely actions. The main couple bored me to death, the other potential couples were what kept me reading, but they, too, weren't executed in the most compelling way. I enjoy the colors in this lol, especially the eyes and hair colors. That's about it.
It got me tired and burnt out quickly to read this.
