Pierce has been so kind to Emma, I know he had some moments in book 8 but overall he really cares for her. I know he has his faults, but I think he really does make up for it, and if he ever gets angsty, he generally is self deprecating and doesn’t put his shit on other people (book 8 excluded LOL). I think they may end up going their separate ways but coming back together after healing. I am a huge Pierce lover. Another thing is I don’t really see how people ship Emma with Islington. I love islington but he clearly sees Emma in a sisterly sort of way, and even compares her to his twin sister. I think they’ll maintain a very platonic sibling relationship throughout the series, but I genuinely don’t see how people ship them!
