I am really getting sad about this series. I know this series is fiction, but It's really getting kind of unrealistic, especially the way the fallen angel Olivia characterized as a loving, innocent joy bringer. Basically, if she is an angel who never experienced a men's touch, but only watched, should portray herself as angel, even a fallen one as she continuously reminded us, cause of the type of angel she was, I can't see her being so slutty and trashy. I would think that she would have been a little more slow and more innocent in her approach in wanting to experience sex with Aeron, and not throwing her innocence for sex in such a degrading manner as she did at a Aeron.
