Oh my goodness gracious, how can I cleanse this sin of a novel from my memories...It's like I went back to the days where we only had the 90s and early 2000s yaoi manga where r*pe was heavily romanticised or brushed over.I love the MC, he's quick-witted, intelligent and charming. I am very much into possessive semes, but only those that have learnt CONSENT.My threshold was actually so high, I turned a blind eye to the unwanted kisses, physical contact and fondling but WOAHHHH BOY this ML has not only drugged the MC and attempted r*pe, he literally r*ped the MC not once, twice, nor trice... AND the man did it while MC was under drug influence (given by another party, not ML). I'm getting secondhand trauma!I know ML is written to have some sort of complicated mental illness, but the lack of compassion and understanding is killing me. I was so happy to find an MC that isn't so feminine and wallflower-like but he simply gets treated as an object. I'm sort of thinking the MC started a butterfly effect by actually not terminating his contract and leaving the ML for good... there's been a handful of s*xual harrasments and all MC considers is that he feels bad for taking the money, and that it looks bad if he didn't finish the job. My man, where is the self-care?! Thought a psychologist would see the signs of this arrangement going to a dead-end.Let's not forget how the ML tricks MC into signing a 50-year contract with a 30mil penalty to make sure MC doesn't leave him...I'm done!!! Next!!!
