In the Arms of the Elite

The tension between characters feels heightened by their environment. I'm curious if the setting shaped the enemies-to-lovers dynamic or vice versa.

Their chemistry is undeniable, but the power imbalances and dark elements made me question whether it's a healthy romance. What was others' take on this?

The pacing felt just right, but I wonder if there was a deliberate choice to keep the tension high without letting it get overwhelming.
