Maybe that was another reading or a happy ending is different in certain eyes? I read the raws and it was a Stockholm syndrome "happy" kind of ending. Basically mc becomes ml's dog in the end and love being a severe masochist and ml just basically does whatever he wants mainly but at the same time does care for him but it's more so Stockholm syndrome I believe personally, as he didn't want to be alone but also "liked" the way it felt and etc. That's how I viewed it, it wasn't a "happy fluff" ending, it was more of a psychological ending <3

For this story, there won't be a true happy ending I feel, I read the raws and with all the violence and more, they are both too far gone (mc and ml). This is a heavy story, so sorry to break it to people who want a happy ending, it won't happen lmao. This story is fucked up, and will stay fucked up based on how the author is writing it. It's not a bad story and I don't mind reading it cause it's not as bad as other readings, just prepare to read a lot of stuff that's not fluff xD
