Le Tourment de la Bête

The mix of magic and romance felt fresh and immersive. I'm curious whether this was a deliberate choice or evolved naturally during writing.

The setting felt vivid and layered, making me wonder how much of it was planned out beforehand versus developed as the story unfolded.

Sometimes the romance felt front and center, while other times it took a backseat to world-building. I wonder what guided those pacing choices.
