This is such an intriguing and interesting story so far, I eagerly wait for more. Help, I'm addicted! XD
I'm so attached to the protagonist, I often find myself totally invested with a main character who's been through a lot. I really want to know more of their story. I really like Leese, I can understand why the mc chooses to not share their childhood history, but it also just makes me want to hug them both and tell them they'll be okay.
I enjoy your writing style, it's very descriptive and helps in the flow of the story. Some parts can be wordy, but to me that's quite easy to ignore since I do like reading through this story and learning more about the characters and situations.
All in all, best story I've read in months, even if it's still not complete :P
