Don’t try to justify a morally questionable story just know its pitfalls and live your life
Okay? That whore has the eyes of a wolf. As soon as he turns 18 is where the author would start adding bullshit. Bitch just because he turns 18 its still morally wrong and the author clearly has a hidden shotacon fetish.
Uhh did you skip a chapter? Its not super graphic but they did have sex and its implied that its ongoing even though they only show it once.
I realised that and it was too late. ╥﹏╥
I get that the MC is 17 and the ML is 27, but they are not romanticly interested in eachother yet. Mabye later in the story when the MC is an adult they will romanticize eachother. And the most physical intimacy that they have is a hug.
