Lots of parallels to the Bowen/Mari relationship but a lot better. Like Bowen, Will also had a lot of prejudice against his mate's race but unlike Bowen, he was able to learn to accept his mate's race and actually embrace it. Plus I feel like Will had a much more valid reason for his hatred of Succubi than Bowen did witches. Really enjoyed the angst in this one for that reason. Like yes Will was a complete and utter asshole at times but I was able to forgive him for it since it made sense for him to act the way he did and afterwards he tried to make amends and it actually felt like he was making an effort.
