Guys please read the novel! It’s completed and it’s amazing!! The manhwa is doing a wonderful job at adapting it but the novel has more details and goes more in depth about their internal feelings and thought. The fan translations of the novel are really top notch as well :D So if you’re impatient like me, do give the novel a try
this contains spoilers in case anyone’s curious!! if you dont wanna spoil, please dont read this
SO TWs first: lots of sexual coercion and harassment i would even say r*pe. just in general not really nice in terms of “romance”. So be warned!
General spoilers: yeah its that typical “he for some reason (the reason later being revealed to be something related to their past) hates her but it turns into obsession which then turns into love” and yes they do end up together and even have kids . There is a “redemption arc” i guess for the ML but its hard to acknowledge after all those atrocious acts lets be real . He not only sexually harasses her constantly and gets insanely obsessive about her but also ends up keeping her locked in out if his obsession yes she manages to get away but at what cost
they both are basically “enemies” in the sense that they work for opposing forces in the story, him being like a general or something and her being on team “rebels” except neither side is fully right and instead are corrupted and both FL and ML’s personalities and lives get twisted unknowingly as they grow up within their respective corrupted environments (yes believe it or not ML was normal as a kid ).
There are more detailed spoilers on novel updates in case anyone wants to read up even more there. And there is also translation of the novel which shouldnt be hard to find on google in case anyone’s curious or impatient :)
Yeah this is gonna be one of those “damn someone really wrote this AND got it illustrated thats crazy” reads
Have we been reading the same story??? Or do yall just skim shit over??
This is like the third time its been reuploaded give it a rest my god
Why did the font in the dialogue boxes change like 15 times
Every day i pray someone tells us here that the novel has been translated
This just got official translation on Webtoon! Its still a bit behind there but i think they’ll catch up soon plus better quality over all. Support the artist there!
Bro the FL holy fuck can she catch a break?? clearly from that little flashback, things were abusive when she was young and most of her youth was spent being manipulated by this piece of shit red headed dickhead only for her adult life to be still strung along bc of him. shes just known cruel aspects of a relationship all her life ;-;
God the author is just as phenomenal in portraying the horrible moments ines dreads from her pas life just as well the lovely, yearning ones she experiences with carcel
This story is such a mess the more i read it the more i realize that. its like the author was on a “what all shitty tropes can i fit in one story” challenge
people always say they want well-written female characters and then when we actually get a great, complex and well-rounded female character in Serena… only to be met with mfkers with no reading comprehension and the inability to digest a flawed female protagonist
This man needs therapy asap i dont see the FL in a negative light just bc he’s dealing with a plethora of negative emotions at the mere sight of her with another dude. he’s sooo emotionally unstable rn praying for this man fr
Genuinely confused why author dedicates chapter after chapter for the clear antagonists and their sexual scenes? is there so little else to the story that the author has to detail these scenes in order to stretch out the run of the manhwa?
