that final message at the end of chapter 1 is nasty work. effective though.

the cinematic vibe is insaneeee, especially in the chapter's most intimate setting. chapter 2 broke me.

the slow-burn pacing hooked me immediately. Mateo Grant feels real, and the chapter's most intimate setting has that slow-burn pressure that makes every scene feel alive. ๐ญ i would unlock this again.

the chapter's most intimate setting is such a sexy setting without being lazy about it. i would unlock this again.

ngl this one is dangerous. the dialogue that feels real plus the chapter's most intimate setting is such a good combination โจ chapter 2 broke me.

This is the kind of story where the small details matter. the small detail that changes the scene feels like a warning. still thinking about it.
