Of course a rendition story will not follow the exact tale of mythology. They gotta add more to make it separate from a basic copy paste of the original. That’s the case for all stories made from the premise of mythology.
In this story, Daphne falls first, Apollo leads her on. Then Eros shoots Apollo with an arrow to make him love Daphne, while he also shoots Daphne with an arrow of lead that makes her hate him. So now he’s the one chasing her. Anyways if you know about Greek mythology, you’d know rape is a common thing already in the original tales. The author seems to be including the same events as the og but tweaked with different details.
"rape is a common thing in greek stories" do I give a fuck??? if theyre already changing up the story, they can take out the parts about rape
not sure why this has a lot of positive reviews? i only read the first few chapters but im already turned off by it. in actually mythology, it was apollo that fell instantly, not daphne. and daphne rejected apollo, literally pleaded with her father to turn her into a TREE to get away from him. maybe i just hate men too much but this is honestly giving me the ick how obsessed with this man she is when it seems like he doesnt really care about her. again, ive only read the first few chapters, but based on the saved images as well, it seems like he only cares about her body.
also saw a comment saying that it was noncon???? absolutely the FUCK not. ew. carcel escalante the man that you are, you have permanently ruined my standards for men bc this dude is giving me red flags and where im at he literally hasnt said a damn word
