Younger man, dual male leads, an unclear romance early on, and a love mired in hatred.
A calm and rational top who becomes a gloomy, ghostlike man later on × a bottom who seems stoic and cold, hiding his feelings, but is actually half-demon and hopelessly in love.
The night before becoming a Chosen of the Gods, Finnian returned home, full of joy, only to find his parents dead and his brother suspected of being the killer.
Afterward, Isaac imprisoned him for five years without offering a single explanation.
Five years later, Finnian set out on the path of the Chosen once more, vowing to make Isaac pay.
When he finally claimed all the powers, their positions were reversed. Yet when Finnian faced the “killer” who had once sworn to protect him forever, but had murdered his parents, he couldn't bring himself to strike.
They are not related by blood. The story draws on religious themes.
Finnian has a lot of character growth early on.
