@Celesteek_ My sweetheart, I know it has been nearly a year since you commented this, but I have explained this many times. ACOHAS was written before ACOSF came out. Since Emerie was introduced in ACOFAS and spoke with Cassian first, I believed that they would be a great pairing, hence why I wrote them as a couple. I was not going to change my plot to align with the canon, especially since the next book is in their daughter's point of view.
Thank you for enjoying my story, but please, do not leave comments like these again.
