End of book 7

Just starting the book 8/8.5 tandem read now but I can’t stop thinking about the end of book 7. What the fuck even happened??? They took it too far. I know a lot of people on this page dislike Darius but I love himwtffff 😭😭😭😭 Idek if I can continue reading if Darius and Tory will never be together 😭💔💔💔 Darius should have won that fight for sure. I thought he’s supposed to be bigger and stronger than his father.
