I don't think it was fair for Cecilia to kiss Alexander after she had won Sebastine over. However, it is not appropriate to link her being unfair to her demonic nature of wanting more.

Although her kissing Alexander wasn't fair to Sebastian, I wouldn't blame her either. It wasn't like she was walking around with her plan to kiss him, it just kinda happened. I feel she was truly in love with Sebastian.

In my own opinion, her demonic side was not responsible for that action. She was just trying to make the right choice. Also, I wouldn't say she betrayed Sebastian.

I think Cecilia wasn't fair to both Sebastian and Alexander. She should have figured out her feelings without stringing both of them along no matter how strong her passion for Alexander was. She shouldn't have kissed Alexander after winning Sebastian over.

Well, fair or not, I think feelings can be that confusing at times, it can happen to a lot of us. I believe that Cecilia has more connection with Sebastian so I'd consider Alexander an experimental lust.

It was the aspect of the story that I liked and disliked the most. It was a very human thing to add. Cheating happens, falling in love with a different person happens, falling in love with two people can happen. Lots of people openly casually date multiple people until something makes them choose one. Was it necessary? Maybe, maybe not. Did it work? Yes.

To begin with, I'm not a big lover of love triangles. They've always bothered and annoyed me. As a result, I believe she loved the attention she received from the other two guys. Furthermore, I was saddened by what she did to Sebastian. It was completely unjust to him by all means.

Cecilia's character, in my opinion, was enhanced by this, making the plot more thrilling and engaging. If it is an innate feature of hers, then no one should be outraged. While it may not be to everyone's taste, I don't see anything wrong with this concept. Cecilia, after all, has the power to determine who she wants to let go.

Cecilia has both good and evil within her, and both sides want to be equally satisfied. She should sort out her internal issue before dragging other people with her. In reality, nobody wants to be strung along then later dumped.

I think it was not fair for Cecilia to string Sebastian along knowing very well she had feelings for Alexander. Her passion for Alexander should have given her pause. I think trying to work out her passionate feelings with Alexander while she was vibing with Sabastian is problematic.

I think this is very interesting. I did not consider her demonic nature when it came to the love triangle. It is very possible that her demonic nature made her desire more.

I think it was a case of indecision. Cecilia can sometimes be naive due to the sheltered life previously led. Suddenly having the attention of two men but have been thrilling and confusing.

For someone supernatural who is trying and striving to fit into the human sphere, I think it won't be easy as there might be misplaced feelings and wrong actions. The love triangle between Cecelia, Sebastian, and Alexander was normal but I think she is more tied to Sebastian.

Cecilia kissing and leading on both Sebastian and Alexander is in my opinion unjust. She should absolutely start with one guy. Her yearning for more, on the other hand, is not justified as her evil side.

It was unfair for her to string both boys. Because if Cecilia truly loved Sebastain, there was no need for her to kiss Alexander.
