To be honest, most of my feelings about this stems from that I think jealously is an extremely unattractive personality trait. And I also think it's usually displayed poorly because the media rarely addresses it maturely and it comes off as it justifying the behavior. So you'll get a scene where a girl is very needlessly rude to some other girl for simply talking to her LI and the media displays this as relatable or understandable.

I would have thought it extremely pathetic and gross if the MC was forced to be jealous about her vampire boyfriend's ex from before the MC was even born. The friendship between Adrian, Serafine, and Kamilah should be beyond things like jealousy.

I would have thought it pathetic if Adrian, this centuries year old vampire who has probably had dozens and dozens of flings and lovers, became jealous because his human lover, of what - a few months? Less?, made goo-goo eyes at someone else. Jax makes the most sense as he seems the most sexually repressed of the LI and he's not even that repressed.

Adrian, I feel, should honestly be less engaged with the PC for most of the romance. IRL, most of our romantic hiccups are born from new experiences. Adrian shouldn't have this problem. He, being so old and experienced, should be sure of himself and his place in life, and so less insecure about the MC's potential partners.
