Authors really love using shitty parents as a plot driver. I feel like this is all I ever read about now a days, and I'm not saying it isn't an effective plot driver. My heart is just tired of all the wrenching it be doing for the kids that don't deserve this mess.
I will tell y'all, in every story I read with children like this I think up a character version of myself and name her Kami and I go to the child and build rapport with them. Then I ask them if they would like to stay me. I tell them I am indeed the Kami-sama that they have been praying to, and deeply apologize for being late to help them.
I let them know that even though I am powerful I can not change people. I can not make their mother love and can not stop their father from being abusive, but they can stay with me and I promise to give them all the love and care I have to supplement them because I would never claim to replace their parents even if they where shitty.
Even in my own little timeline, every child is different and though some come with me immediately, others try to stay with their parents hoping for a miracle while I remain their support line. I do ultimately end up getting them all to come with me though. Lol And when I tell you I smother them with love. Spoil them occasionally. Advocate for them always. I give my all to every child until they are set in their life with a partner, a home, a job, maybe children and they can now support their own happiness.
Then I go to them and tell them it is time for me to leave, because there are other children praying to Kami-sama to help and every single one of those children understand. Big hugs are given as a farewell and thank you, and then I'm off to love another child. This really is the only way sometimes I can take some of these stories~
As if the storyline itself was not enough, your comments made me cry again. Thanks
But WOW... that's a lovely thought you have.

Hahahaha! That moe was in full throttle during sexy time. They both were giving off the exact opposite feel of what the other was expecting. I ain't gonna lie the uke's melting face was nice and when the seme paused for a pulse check when the uke said ow, I damn near applauded. Lol Looking forward to the rest of this.
Sher reads Kas a fairytale about the witch. In the fairytale it states the witch bets a wager of some sort and if the human wins she will grant them a wish for anything and if they lose she will take their soul. It continues that even though the bets are always in favor of the human the witch has never loss because a soul "full of love" makes her more powerful and she refuses to lose out on that. In the middle of the story Kas, states he must be really powerful since he loves Sher (his mother) so much, and if that isn't a foreshadowing I don't know what is.
If I had to pin point, I think the witch knew that Sher's whole family had the potential to be full of love, but that none of them currently were. Sher only thought of her mother, and wasn't a fan of her husband and son so there wasn't any love there, and because the husband and son weren't loved by their wife and mom there wasn't a "full of love" soul within them either. But if she could send Sher back in time and eliminate the reason why Sher was having such a hard time accepting the love of the people around, she could get get them to be a loving family, and take the soul that she wanted who was the most filled with love. Which I would assume would be Kassel based on chap 28.
This is just my hypothesis though~
I highly doubt she can take the soul of someone outside of the bet even if they are a child of someone inside the bet. I'm worried mc might become soulless and therefore heartless for a little while unless she proves she didn't lose the bet because she actually wants to be Elle not Sher or something like that.
Hmm, I would normally agree, but the fact the Sher asked herself what the witch was gonna take away from her led me to believe differently. Like let's say that the witch does try to take her soul, and can totally see the husband our son finding out and offering theirs instead and Sher would have to figure out how to get it back. I honestly don't think her soul is the answer for the witch. Then again, it's just my speculation. Lol Whatever happens, happens~
That's fair, maybe if one of the boys offers their soul it would be accepted since the witch supposedly wants love filled souls. There's always the potential that the witch isn't actually a bad person and is all knowing because she's some sort of god and she isn't actually going to take anything, she just wants the people to admit the truth to themselves
That would be a nice turn of events. She seemed abit twisted? Jaded? I guess antagonistic maybe the best word I can think of. Not evil, but not good. So her trying to do good, even with harsh lessons wouldn't be a bad spin either~
I'm just expecting a plot twist right about now because we've all been foaming at the mouth to know what's gonna happen with the evil winter witch and it's pretty common to have the men swoop in and save her yada yada but nowadays people make the twists all about gods so her omniscience made me suspicious
Like someone else said, I will come back to this once it end ends because baby, I refuse to have Author-nim have me all fucked up with the drama. I asked ever so nicely to just give us cute family shit for the side stories because the main story was already doing the most, but nooooooo. Lol Apparently we can't have the nice things round here. So I'll be back in a couple of months to year depending how long they stretch this out. Lol
When I tell you this is giving me ACTUAL Dom/Sub BDSM vibes!! Like the seme is definitely a dom leaning more into a Daddy with the way he's taking care of the uke and giving clear cut this or that instructions. The uke is definitely sub, but he's not giving me full "Daddy's special boy" vibes. It could just be because he really is new to having his desires acted on, he hasn't fallen into the "boy" role yet. Either way, apart of me wishes this was a novel as well so we could really see them come into the role of dom/sub with play and limits and things, but I also ain't mad at the delicious taste this is giving me either. It's been a while, but I might have to jump back into reading gay erotic bdsm romance novels. I definitely missing them~ ♡
You gotta give recs please
The translation was indeed rough, but I understood every bit of it. Judith came to be Judith. She had a beautiful older sister everyone wanted. With her sister being so beautiful and getting all the attention, Judith was insecure about her looks, but her older sister was gentle and kind and she loved her very much. She loved her warm little home with her sister and loving mother though they weren't wealthy.
Coming home one day Judith witnesses her gambling addict of a father dressing her sister up in a dress that he purchased frivolously with money they didn't have all so he could forcefully send her to a party at a nobleman's home so her beauty could grab wealthy men's attention and her possible marriage to them would raise their family out of poverty.
Judith is pissed. How dare him to try and sell his daughter out in hopes of her marrying into money so he can spend it when it was his gambling habits that put them in the financial stresses they were already in. Judith tells her sister forget their half-assed father and to just do what she wants. Her sister tells Judith she will go to the party, and Judith was about to get mad again because she thinks her sister is doing it for their father. However her older sister states that she just wants to go for the experience, as with their status and finances there may not be another chance. She makes a comment that she hopes she finds a handsome guy at the party.
The sister comes back from the party and gushes that she had fun and that she indeed met a handsome man. That they spent time together, and how she thinks Judith should meet him and they should hang out next time. Judith is happy for her sister, until she realizes her sister is pregnant and the man her sister gushed about, who was suppose to come around never did show his face.
So her sister has her baby (Luca), and Judith is upset to see that all the people that use to favor her sister for her beauty now treat her like a harlot and whore for having a child out of wedlock. Even her father was who was shitty already became verbally abusive, that is until his shitty personality and gambling ways ended with him being dead in a ditch. Judith however thought that was for the best, honestly she was sure her mother and sister thought the same too. That with her father gone they maybe able to finally find a little peace. That is until the year Luca turned 5 years old and an epidemic hit their village.
Done. Again it was rough, but I'm not ungrateful. I thank the person who took the time to put the chapter. I appreciate your efforts!~
I really post this away to often, but it's a plot driver I'm starting to get tired of seeing. Shitty half-assed parents leading to emotionally stunted kids who turn into shitty adults is stressing me out. Like the craziest part of this, is I'm more then sure if Killian had some proper reassurances from his father over the last couple of years, he would be in a better place.
Sir Duke!! You have two kids!!! It is great the Lexion is killing the game academically, but that does not mean he should get all the attention and praise!! Did you at any point tell Killian he was doing good at his successor lessons? Did you praise him for holding down the estate while you were on the battlefield?
Hell!! How neglectful do you have to be to not know one of your children is anxious about something? And how much do you care about appearances of the "family" that Killian would rather mentally drown in his anxious insecurities and Lexion would rather just take a beating then tell you what the hell is going on?! But the fact that you actually found out about the abuse, and didn't solve the root cause really got me fuxked up!!
You literally told Killian you realized he had insecurities and then just brushed it to side and told him not to embarrass the family name!! And on top of that you never even went to check to see if Lexion was okay. If I was their mother I would be doing back flips in my grave with how mad this shit would have me. Gimme your children, because a father you may be, but a parent you are not!!!
exactly!! damn he's horrible! And Elena if she plans on being super nanny, I hope she does it right and not just drive Killian more into a corner, especially since he's still a kid too.
Sadly, like most stories, I feel like Killian is gonna continue down this path with no one to give him proper direction. The FL has already deemed him trash and because the younger brother is in a more pitiful situation, I doubt she's gonna bother to look into why he acts the way he does. The story needs a villain and I don't know if the author set him up to be a minor one or a main one, but without a doubt he is gonna be one sadly. It really hurts me heart too~
aww, I think you're right, it's kinda what it seems like from these chapters, haa they can't even redeem a teen, I also don't like how he treats his fiancé, still that's all he knows, people doing as he wishes since he's the heir to the Duke, I'd anything they must've been happy if he found interest in them, ha, it's nice to see that we're all free thinkers though, reminds me, apparently in the Olympics this year, a Dutch guy player is a r*pist and they let him play, also the one representing Isrash** has signed some r0ckets that were sent to k*ll children in Gaza, man...this real world is just...ugh.
The bodies of these killers are popping!! I don't know what I like better, Kageo standing fully naked in the bathroom with Yuika (though they were hiding his yummy bits), or Kageo hitting that pose in the doorway at the school talking to the students. My boy a thirst trap!
Also I can't say I was fan of Yuika, but it was without a doubt that she deserved better. She was definitely crazy, but I can't say I wouldn't be if someone massacred my whole family. Seeing the younger her, and wondering what could have been if Raphael didn't stick his shitty hands in the mix makes me abit sad at the possibility of a happier future her and Kageo could of had. It seemed like even after her revenge she couldn't let go if her extreme emotions. It's a crying shame really~
As quick as this was, the way I laughed and was satisfied with how fast the seme dragged that ass down. Lol He was tormenting the uke for years, the uke unknowingly meets the love of his life and the seme took care of that ass in less then a month. Lol It was probably enough to make his head spin.
I like it!! The start was good, the climax gave some angst, and the end has them living the best of both worlds. I am not mad. This is literally one of those, "I was made just for you" tales because the likelihood of the seme also being a switch would be very unlikely. But I am always here for a happily ever after!!
