I disliked the first chapters but pushed on because of the good ratings, but no, this is not for me.

Of course, I disliked the r*pe, but more than that, the MC's attitude is disgusting. The morning after, while ML is trembling in fear, MC feels remorseful for two seconds, then wants to wash him with a cloth, litteraly everywhere and even put ointment "down there". So ML feels absolutly humiliated, afraid of being beaten and sold after an horrible night while MC is happy to have gained a wife.

The author quickly gives the tone of the novel, they use "domineering" for MC and "boy or wife" for ML. And that's exactly how it goes afterward, MC is the main character, he takes the decisions and acts, the ML is there to be pampered, nothing else, he's a "he" but could be a "she", no differencce.

The author uses flawed logic for dramatisation, dumbs down villains so they can be face slapped, forget background characters after they've said what was needed to push the plot and can't really grasp the emotions of their characters who seem half complete.

So, only read this if you don't care about anything but the wife pampering genre.
