+ (sort of) childhood friends to estranged to friends again to lovers! reencounter trope ^^ there's trauma involved: SA & DV (for MC, but not between the leads!) it's an omegaverse with mpreg ( ˃◡˂ )!
+ MC is an omega who was abused as a kid. he escaped his home, only to be SA-ed and led down the rabbit hole of being a prostitute—just like his mom. ML's a rich alpha who befriended MC when they were still kids. they were estranged because ML had to study abroad. but, he immediately looked for MC once he got back from the states.
+ for a short story, it was a bit mid. however, for an author's debut, this was quite good ^^ it was fast paced—given the length—but it still had substance and the couple had a happy ending!
+ the ML is such a green flag! one of the best alphas out there the conflicts were properly resolved—except for MC's mother... she never paid for her crimes.
+ i liked how MC took his time before explicitly reciprocating his feelings for ML! ik they got married a bit too quickly, but i think all of it still worked out in the end. (◍•ᴗ•◍) the art was cute i wish we got to see more of their domesticity >< especially with baby yunwoo :(( i'm glad his new family slowly healed the pain & abuse he went through
