You make me forget all my rules and reasons for everything. You make me want to believe it's possible not to be alone forever. You make me want to claim the whole world and gift it to you on a silver platter. You are unlike anyone I've ever known. And gods, but I love your mouth. The way it smiles. The words that come out of it. How it feels against mine. Just looking at your lips makes my mouth water." As someone who absolutely adored TSBU when it first came out, and even now after my reread more than 4 years later, I was super excited to get my hands on this sequel/spin off/companion novel. It did not disappoint. I was unsure at first if I'll love Chrysantha as much, because—in the words of our dear Petros—I'm loyal to her sister, but with everything we learn about her and the way she grows, I was helpless to her charms. Chrysantha is similar to Alessandra, they're sisters after all, but she's still her own person (character?). Even though she has Alessandra's ruthless streak and she's almost as morally grey/villainous as her, Chrysantha is also very different in other ways—she loves to read, she cares about the people around her, she just want to be left alone in peace—and it didn't feel like I was reading the same story but with a different title. She smiles. "[. . .] How fortunate that both our men survived us." "We Stathos sisters are a force to be reckoned with." The love interest-Eryx-is as mysterious and as interesting as Kallias, i absolutely loved him. I loved the whole knife-to-throat and hidden monstrous side we get in this book. And his banter with Chrysantha is hilarious — there's so much tension from the moment they meet and it's excellent. "At least it's not pink," he mutters. "What did the color ever do to you?" "It's distasteful—and you can close your mouth right now. I don't wish to hear your comment about me being just as distasteful to match." I close my mouth, almost embarrassed that he predicted my comment perfectly. "Remind me how long of a ride it is to the palace," he says. "A few hours." He massages his temples. "I don't think I'll survive it." Where the first book takes place in the palace and there's a lot of court intrigue and machinations, TDWU mostly takes place at Chrysantha's estate, so it gives the story very strong Beauty and the Beast vibes. I couldn't help draw the comparison and it makes a lot of sense given what type of characters Eryx and Chrysantha are. Perhaps this is the main reason why I love TSBU a little bit more — I prefer the palace setting, and I think the plot of TSBU is more interesting and to a point I even find Alessandra and Kallias more interesting and more fun. When it comes to the pacing they are both equally fast paced and both books are equally captivating. The ending felt a little rushed, so much happened in that last chapter, I feel like the story could've been expanded in a few places *sighs*. The bonus epilogue in the Fairyloot edition helped though and the deleted scene was super fun though I'm so happy TL decided to include the wedding instead. It was SO MUCH FUN coming back this world—I absolutely adore that we get to see Kallias and Alessandra's wedding and what they are up to I also love that Chrysantha and Alessandra are able to reconnect and hopefully fix their relationship. I really hope this is not the last we've seen of Chrysantha and Eryx and Alessandra and Kallias. eternal gratitude to netgalley and the publisher for the arc all quotes are from an advance copy and may differ in the final publication Review: Wow! What a conniving little… - The opening line about did me in. 😫 Beautiful enemies to lovers. Our FMC and our MMC both deceptive and selfish in their own rights. Have to say I enjoyed TDWU more than TSBU! I enjoyed Eryx’s origin story much more than Kallias’s! Levenseller wrote the sisters beautifully. Chrysantha and Alessandra both a battling for their freedom is both very different ways. However, I think Chrysantha is so much more intelligent in her process. Alessandra rushes her way into what she wants. Chrysantha waits, plots. I liked her character to much better!

Maybe I wasn't in the mood for it, or maybe I need to reread the duolagy together. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Darkness Within Us - The Shadows Between Us - The Stars Are Dying: Special Edition (Nytefall Trilogy, 1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.id/products/574959607-the-darkness-within-us](https://www.desertcart.id/products/574959607-the-darkness-within-us) --- *Product available on Desertcart Indonesia* *Store origin: ID* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
