tragic backstory that she's not aware of until much later.
[collapse]Even at her worst the FL doesn't come across as pathetic for what she has to endure. The FL's tenacious nature gives so much to the story. I mean Spoilerher own allies give her up multiple times, abandoned her to die, the ML constantly tortures her in attempts to break her, she discoverers that her whole life as she knew it was a lie.
[collapse] She griefs and hates but she never gives up on herself. She truly won me over.The ML makes the worst decisions of his life. I hate the sh*t he pulls at times such as Spoilertw s*xual ab*se
Spoilerwhen he freaking hangs her then freaking lets her go. Only for him to save her last minute to then continue f*cking her as she is trying to catch her breath/regain conscious after almost dying!!! Or when he r*pes her with a gun that she truly believes will go off in any second.
[collapse]I understand that this is a dark romance novel. I don't hold it against the story or romance. Those were just scenes that really got to me. I really wish we could have gotten more sweet romance moments between the FL and ML. To make up for all the ab*se, give me that pain but then wrap me up in toothaching sweetness come on. There are some but just not enough for me personally.
I really really enjoyed the irony (?) that they both thought that other was lying. Grace thinking Leon is lying about the rebel group using her. Leon believing Grace wanted to be there and was lying about him being her first love.
[collapse].I could honestly go on and on about this story. It really just did something to me because, I could only MLT to ch204, but as soon as I caught up to the last chapter. I reread the story back to back three times.I hope if you give this a chance that you are able to enjoy it as much as I did.
