toxic, abusive relationship; mc desperately needs money for his hospitalized grandmother.
mutually dark and twisted dynamic between the main couple. uke is physically weak and half-starved, and generally a complete mess
severe financial pressure resulting in isolation. overworked, SA’d/abused, and deeply traumatized. one of the more potent on this list
very severe sexual trauma, stifling home environment. has some comfort, thanks to a separate ML who treats him well.
much more of a comfort story, but i think the uke’s background makes him qualify. lots of feel-good angst
uke is actively dying, and his body’s falling apart. cheated on by his lover of many years.
tragedy
suffered from severe sexual abuse, and continues to relive his trauma. however, the main seme is very caring.
good lord, this is good. chapter 5 fucking killed me in my own room.
uke becomes victim to sexual assault. alpha ml treats uke like garbage, eventually comes back groveling for forgiveness
iconic case of arrogant seme who treats uke like complete shit. rape, kidnapping, self-deprecation etc, all over a uke with a heart of gold
