So the tired old BL trope of a seme who's a rapist and manipulator rises again in this story with the added bonus of Stockholm syndrome. Yay. I kick myself as I stayed to the end, instead of dropping this trash sooner, especially when I saw the direction the story was headed. There really isn't many redeeming moments within this story. Taejoo rapes, manipulates, and threatens the Euihyun repeatedly and somehow his actions were for love?! F*ck off with that nonsense!! As for Euihyun, yes, he was a different sort of uke, almost rare -- a strong fighter who usually isn't overpowered. You'd think that was a good quality, but unfortunately I can't praise it, since he is stupid as f*ck for falling for the very individual who dragged him deeper into Hell. Although, I applaud him for not using Haesung's feelings for him to seek a safe place, but I can't believe he thought running to the rapist thug was the better choice in his life. Another gripe, Euiyoung's mom (dad) comes back into their life -- why not negotiate to have both of you live with him as you work off the debt?? Nope!! That's too good of a solution let's do the exact opposite for more drama. -__- Lastly, you're an Omega and you were late taking the full dosage for the morning after pill AND you were knotted -- but you don't think to check for pregnancy?? Yesh!! The HEA is a lie brought about by Stockholm syndrome. There's no way I'm going to accept or believe either of them are in love, because every time I thought something redeemable was going to happen in the story it took a left turn back towards manipulation, stupidity, and lack of communication. Trash!!
