This was one of my first hentais and it's been one of my favorites ever since. I usually go for lovey dovey type stuff and while you can't say there's love here there's definite affection. She is moved by his self sacrifice and takes his soul to become part of her when she could have easily left him to die. In a way they're bonded in a way deeper than love itself.. It's actually one of the more touching stories you'll find on here.
