What lines are you reading between? What makes you think she regrets having to deal with Nikki and Cara? It makes no sense since she has been adding more and more characters after them. Do you think she thought "oh no that's too many girls!" then proceeded to introduce everyone since?
Not part of the story? This claim is even more bizzare than your last. How are Nikki and Cara not part of the story? What's your definition of story? revolving around Erynn? living in Madison Springs? What about being a main love interest of the MC doesn't that count?
As someone who supported Nyx for a while on Patreon, some her posts, imo, seemed to suggest there was some regret with extending the Nikki and Cora storyline.
As far as the story goes, I said they were not really part of the whole "Intertwined" story, which, frankly is Madison Springs and the whole "everyone knows, is related, is connected to everyone else" I didn't mean to imply they were not part of the over-arching story.
Regardless, it's my opinion. I was responding to a specific post and was not making some kind of random claim. Last I heard, this was a forum and we are allowed to express our opinions here and that is all it was. I could have done without your snarky reply.
