I may edit this review once I read further if this novel redeems itself but as of now--- setting your readers up with an initial grudge against an unreasonable, arrogant ass hat then, presumably and according to the reviews, slowly revealing him as a tragic misunderstood victim is not an appealing method (however prevalent and popular this tired tactic may be amongst the masses) for those of us with moral uprightness. I mean, come on...I would love to insert a spoiler tab here but I tried several times and can't figure out how to do it so, warning spoilers ahead! 😅How could you not know your long awaited bridal party is coming (!?!) and destroy their fleet-almost killing your bride and definitely killing 9 innocent people-then ditching everyone for three more months of almost dying, followed by acting like a spoiled (12 year old) princess upon finally meeting and STILL EXPECT HIM TO LIKE YOU? Not to mention the enmity of their nations... This dude is supposed to be almost 2000 years old, so why is he such an idiot?!I'm disappointed since the novel started out really promising and then dissolved into crap quickly due to the ML.Ch 21 review update-this novel is such complete tr*sh, I can hardly describe it. From nonsensical, huge gaping logic holes (why would the MC be so determined to carry out the marriage / peace agreement when he has evidence that the ML is conspiring with a traitor to break the agreement before its even settled? Why is there a huge city for only a hundred people? -just to name a couple-a small fraction of the nonsensical crap in this novel) to forced s*x and emotional manipulation by the ML. I want the last two hours of my life back!!
