No no I totally get youuu, I wouldn't give a rat's ass abt this bl if it were not for Rian. He's the sole lifeline in this story for me, Enzo's literally just another psychopathic rapist ml and i don't get why he has so many dickriders given that he's completely unhinged. This story is not a romance, and I wish the author themselves would treat it as such till the end bc if Rian somehow became submissive and "in love" with Enzo, it's gonna ruin it for me big time

Mostly because he is unwilling. It's not hot. He was hot as a confident, silly but infatuated top. Now he is always getting caught and out of his depth. I get that we are trying to establish Enzo as ruthless. Beefy bottoms are hot as long as they are willing. Confident tops forced into submission is just pitiful. I feel author wasted a very good character after building him up so well in Red Candy. I hope Enzo is willing to be a switch. Otherwise he is just hateful, not hot hateful. Story is so goated tho, as always. Please don't hate me, it's just how I felt when I read it - uncomfortable.
