If you can read POTN, this one when it ends would probably lean towards POTN too.
I mean come on now. Both tops in these two different stories are capable of murder and they’re not afraid to do so.
The top from POTN literally murdered a man right in front of the bottom. On the first chapter. On their first meeting.
They both violated their bottoms. And both bottoms did try to escape at one point.
It’s just that, this top seems more sociopathic.
So like, really. The comparison is mild. Like the other person said, this story is ongoing. People HATED POTN and the top until later in the story.
This one is the same. When we’re finished and he gets a character development. This story is gonna be just similar to POTN.

i’m guessing seme is gonna get a happy ending with no real character development. i’d rather read painter of the night
