So this story made me feel very weird cause I think it tried to be very real while using abo elements. For me ABO stories have to be very pwp cause if you put in things that could happen irl it becomes very creepy, a gender that is absolutely "inferior", gets raped daily and is discriminated again and having no choice but to rely on the strong big courageous alpha? Yeah make it silly or it gets weird soon. And I think this is what happened here for me, if this was a normal au and not abo I dont think I would have these contrasting feelings but the fact that Leo has this huge trauma and still has to rely on an alpha (a good one but still) to live peacefully makes me feel very deafeted and like life is truly unfair.
