Angry. Senza perdono

The chemistry between the characters feels so charged, but I'm curious if the author envisioned this tension from the start or developed it during writing.

Their actions can be so harsh, but the story makes you root for their redemption. How do others reconcile the dark themes with their empathy for the characters?

The book shifts between harshness and tenderness—I'm wondering if this contrast was planned to reflect real emotional complexity or evolved naturally.
