Anyone else is so dissapointed that he didn't become a LI?

Even before Book 3 I've felt a tiny bit of sympathy toward him - because of his actions in Paris (when he was ready to sacrifice himself to let other vampires flee, and would have died then if Kamilah hadn't pulled him out) and when in the final chapter, despite everything that have happened between them, he was still ready to just forget about they differences and offered to our group a last chance to join him (yeah, I know that those differences were pretty damn big deal).

And when in Book 3 turned out on that plane that MC was able to reach to "real Gaius", who was scared and lonely I really regret that there wasn't an option to shout to Adrian and Kamilah something like: "Wait a sec, don't throw him off just yet". And after we discovered what Rheya did to him, why on earth MC was still so fixed on fighting him, instead of trying to heal him? Why, when she finally did heal him, she was still going to kill him? I really wanted at this moment to just give him a hand and help him up. I sooo didn't like my MC then :/

Diamond scene with him in chapter 14 is one my favourite of all Choices, so sad that after that there were no more interactions between them. And that the scene with him at the very end was so short and only Kamilah was talking to him, again - no real interactions with MC. Eh :(

And I really understand why everyone else was furious with him - Adrian and Kamilah had a long history with him, Lily died beacuse of him, he killed Takeshi, everyone saw how he killed their beloved MC. And they didn't really know how this was Rheya's doing, they only have MC's word for it. So yeah, I totally get it.

But MC knew exactly what happened. That Rheya altered his personality just so. That he lived for almost 3 thousand years not as himself. That he did monstrous things during this time. That he was robbed of all those years, that he was violated in unimaginable way. And after all of that, he didn't even know anymore who he is (because how could he?). And that he have to live now knowing about all this things he did. And that, because she just slightly changed him, he can't even really separate his actions, tell it was all Rheya. If Rheya would changed his mind more, then at least he would know that all of this wasn't really his fault.

So yeah, I wanted so badly to just embrace him and tell that everything will be all right :(
