I genuinely at first didn’t think I’d read past chapter one just cause of how perverted, nasty and weird he looked, especially after the underwear thing.. anyways! ,, I on my kept on reading since the comments were persistent lol, what I did not expect was a flurry of emotions that struck my heart and left a really big impression on me. I’m so happy that each one was able to show the other their traumatic past, recognize and accept what happened, then move on together as a couple. I did cry a little.. I’m so happy with how this turned out but I’m also sad it’s over

I really did think that Jeremy was going to end up dead by the end of this, or all alone, or continue to live a life he hated every minute of. That’s generally how I feel stories go with a character that’s been sexually, physically and mentally abused multiple times. You feel as though they can never get a satisfying ending, ESPECIALLY when there’s a potential lover involved because they have just become so messed up that they don’t know what real gentleness and love is. To see that the author involved full specifics of Jeremy dealing with his awful past, prostitution and drug abuse, and then added Ian to eventually become his lover and have shown what Ian was going through on his side of this unstable relationship, the author managed to show us all that though it’s extremely difficult and not a lot of people could do it, that Jeremy and Ian could go through all of that and step by step, little by little, overcome this trauma not separately, but together.
Think about it, a boy with such a traumatic past that he turns to murder was able to experience true and faithful love. Not easily, but it happened didn’t it?
Thank you author

Can't help but agree with you. While reading i thought to myself, "Ah wouldn't it be better if you die? Wouldn't it be better to let the suffering end?" It seemed like his pain and misery wouldn't end. I was also confused with how did Jeremy got over his trauma. Was it when he went to Sandra's grave? What happened?

I think at that point, Jeremy just accepted the Sandra that ‘loved’ him and betrayed him. Jeremy’s last hurdle and the obstacle that he always needed to get over and accept, the hurdle that Sandra knew what was going on between him and Greg but didn’t interfere, he finally accepted the fact that Sandra wasn’t the saint or angel he made her out to be. I guess at that point, Jeremy just accepted Sandra was a bitch and that she deserved to die as much as Greg deserved to die. I don’t think Jeremy completely got over his trauma, but he did take a huge step in accepting what happened to him and basically just acknowledging that it did. The things that happened with Greg, while they were haunting and traumatizing, Jeremy I think, is on the path of accepting that those events shaped him to be the person he is in the present. Basically, he’s working towards like, healing path now. Letting time pass by and heal his wounds.
I hope that author is resting in peace, they did a spectacular job and have touched many people’s hearts.
