Hi, I noticed ppl complaining about the xes scene and the character development and I came here to explain some stuff I hadn't read the novel so I can't talk like with spoilers so I will talk about what I can see. Yes, this maybe uncomfortable for ppl first time reading toxic stuff but um both of them are red flags. Okay the top I know he is not the most kind person but let's remember that the bottom accept this relationship even if he didn't approved verbally. Second let remember that the bottom is like a whoreee in the older chapter the bottom was being paid for having xes. I know right now he isn't but you can't change a man if you don't tell him was wrong and I think the top is changing he own way he is trying to be nicer and focusing in the bottom of course in the xes he is rough but bottom has never complain. I think this book is good capturing what happens if you're two red flags and don't communicate. That is my opinion if you hate it there is nothing I can do and if you support it and want to give more ideas thank you
