Please do keep an archive of all your chapters, in case Wattpad acts up, your works too good to be lost!!!

Now that you’ve mentioned a mandala and Neev constantly drawing it, I feel like it’s a deliberate hint 
          From what I’ve read the mandala represents the universe and harmony, and it’s typically a map for navigating spiritual rituals, it has Hindu/ Buddhist ties ( from what you’ve told us about yourself, I think it’s beautiful that you use your culture and terminologies of your faith in your work) 
          I think the mandala seems to represent both the natural order of life and a magical/ cosmic system, Neev appears to be its foundation, which even aligns with the meaning of her name. Although she’s referred to as a key, I think she’s now like a ‘living Nexus’, someone who anchors the system itself. Anchoring/ connecting with Ansel who operates in a direct, more visible way, much like his elemental fire powers. While Zev exists more on the periphery, lingering in the shadows, similar to how he told Neev he stays at the edge of their bond 
          
          Though from what I’ve read, mandala’s often feature 4 cardinal points or elements, not 3 to maintain symmetry and harmony, so it makes me wonder if there is a 4th anchor not revealed to us yet. Maybe it’s the last hidden Nexus site, a future/ known character, or even some kind of principle that completes the mandala only when everything lines up.

With what Edmund said in the latest chapter about the survival of the fittest and the weak being ‘culled’ - I think it’s this same ideology that is used, but this time Nyxia as an elemental has the cards- I think Nyxia wants to rule the order, she wants Elementals to be superior, maybe god-like but I feel there’s more to it. Either way people with this mindset are not satisfied with the world as it is, and what they already have. Maybe it wasn’t god who took away their powers but the consequence of them mishandling the nexus ‍♀️
            You also mentioned Phoebe’s Echo Touch earlier ( well it’s more than that now) but now that she fixed that broken watch, it feels like a perfect way to imply she might have to sense or repair imbalances of a system they’ll soon have to fight, like a counter-balance. Maybe she’ll have a role in sensing, repairing, and restoring balance within a system that’s fundamentally breaking.
            
            So when mention the question about who is affiliated with Nyxia, it’s tricky since I feel the real question is, who would benefit with the natural order being dismantled - where rules can bend and be altered or maybe even re-written ?!!
            
            I might be reaching,  in a flow-state from drowning in assignments, but you really know how to get a girl thinking <3 xxx

It’s also clear the elders know more than what they let on. It makes me think perhaps they didn’t intervene because from what they understand, the survival of the mandala and the Nexus depends on natural alignment and cooperation, not forceful intervention ( their ideology possibly shaped by the aftermath of the war). They don’t want to disrupt the natural order at all costs. So they let Neev experience chaos and suffering as tragic as it is, to also temporarily safeguarded the system from Nyxia’s grasp, by destabilising it, especially since the 1sts did come and fight around this time - since maybe that chaos actually makes it harder for Nyxia to take control, though I’m sure long-term the disorder will benefit her - since cooperation/ teamwork and balance is the likely thing that will beat her .

Either way everything seems deeply connected, the mate bond, the Nexus sites, the mandala. 
            It even makes me think the blood flower was a catalyst, not the cause of what was always inevitable 
            Especially with Neev’s emotions controlling the seals, sensing the locations of Nexus sites BUT only when the system is balanced, even if she is human. Cause that’s when the emotions felt between Zev, Neev and Ansel are balanced, when there seems to be peace and order.  Strong emotions seem to be like amplifiers of energy. With anger, grief, or despair/ sadness overloading the systems aka leading to had consequences but I think it also makes the Nexus unstable, which could cause unpredictable effects, and even harm them as well

If this book (1) or these books (1+2)  were to ever get published, I'd buy them immediately. Thank you for not giving up on book 1. It is soooo well written and soooo well thought out. I can't love it more

@notyourmother93 This made me smile way too hard. Thank you for sticking with Book 1 and believing in it.

Hii author... 
          
          I just completed your book FMTIOY. Trust me I never actually read about supernatural romance or warewolf kinda thing, I wasn't sure about the book at first but trust me the first few chapters and you had totally hooked me up. And the story line - well I don't have the words to express how incredibly every event, every scene is woven into the entire plot. Every conversation between Neev, ansel and Zev was fabulously portrayed. I hope this book gets all the love and appreciation it truly deserves. 
          Looking forward eagerly to your second volume...

@author_samu Hi!
             I’m really glad the plot, the scenes, and especially the conversations between Neev, Ansel, and Zev connected with you. Book 2 is already out, so I hope you’re reading it and enjoying it just as much.

@_asmita09 Don’t worry. I’m not going to rob you of Kyler and Nathan’s smut (or anyone else’s, for that matter).
            You will get their POV when the time is right. I promise it’ll be worth the wait.

Just want to give a heads up. There is a site called Teenfic that is stealing from Wattpad. They are copying whole profiles.
          It is a mirror site that is copying from Wattpad. There is a petition to take down the site.
          
          https://chng.it/mMvGFCcLBF
          
          I am not sure if Wattpad will help.

@Darcmoon76 I figured as much. I just hate that people steal the hard work of others. I hope you have a wonderful new year.

@Darcmoon76 Thanks for letting me know, but Wattpad rarely does anything to protect its writers.
