Cindi and Ordus were really cute and Vasz too! 

I like how Cindi’s trauma and past is explored and at first I was frustrated by Ordus because he simply did not understand why she wanted to leave or what she needed from him. It was a slow start and finally after a while Cindi found safety and peace on the island with Ordus and Vasz and realized that he is not Tommy. 

While it may seem the “mate” aspect was early on from Ordus’ pov it’s explained that he’s been waiting a long time and he was kind of manipulated into it by Dee’s magic. Either way, his devotion was impenetrable and it was clear by how he took care of Cindi and protected her (despite the rocky start). 

“She’s my favorite everything. Mate or not, I would choose her every time. There is nothing about her that doesn’t make my heart skip beats.”
