!!This fanfiction contains examples of:

This reveal is made after Diego seriously considered making Kayka his mate as well as several intimate scenes between the two including when Kayka 'kissed' him.

* IHaveManyNames: Kayka seems to be headed this way [[spoiler:considering she gave up her true name 'Kara' when she died and then gave up 'Kayka' at the end of the story because it reminds her of too many ''good'' memories.

* TriangRelations: #9 with Kayka as 'A', Diego as 'B', and Sid as 'C'.

* VitriolicBestBuds: Kayka and [[spoiler:Soto]] definitely fit into this what with how much they attack each other, both verbally and physically, in the only conversation between them.
