Guardian: Zhen Hun (Novel) Vol. 3 - Special edition by priest
medium-paced
3.75
The couple in this series in top tier but the other world building stuff is a bit confusing for me. Still had a place in my heart as one of the best couples with chemistry off the charts though

Mostly smut. The author is problematic so I’d look into that

There is an HEA but I’m aware some may find too sad. If you’d like to know what happens to decide if you want to buy/read here you go:
We learn Izuki stayed with Haku through old age and until he passes away. We see Haku living on his own tending to a photo of Izuki and heading out to the porch. He realizes he can disappear now and wonders if Izuki would be proud of how he lived and praise him. Then a hand rustles his hair. He looks up and see a young Izuki who seems to have waited for him in the afterlife smiling down at him. Izuki ask “are you alone too?” (A throw back to their earlier days).They embrace tearfully and as readers we cut back to empty porch implying they went off to be together for all eternity Personally I found it very fulfilling and beautiful. They got a life time and more together
Overall I loved the tone, art, and exploration of loneliness. Would def recommend

I liked seeing a disabled main character, their connection was slow building but in an enjoyable way.
