SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER
Dude, that’s information they tell way later in novel you just give there. Luckily I reached those parts and wasn’t spoiled by you, but I very well could have. Be careful and respectful of spoilers please.
MC was at the brink of getting gangraped by Andrew’s friends (when ML got hurt) and it was suggested he got raped by Harold until very late in the story. The fact that he was “only” drugged and assaulted (like gotten naked, touched and kissed) is revealed much later.
I’m in the midst of reading the novel, like I said in the first comment, of course the spoilers won’t be up to date to the end of the story? It’s not because things “almost” happened that they don’t make you think they really did (at least from ML’s pov) for a good chunk of the story? I was planning on updating my thoughts when I was finished anyway.
And posting spoilers while warning it’s a spoiler is never an invitation about being spoiled. If you wanna add to the spoils warn it’s one, it’s as simple as that.
The thread is about spoiler so it’s understood that my reply would have been about a spoiler and my comment isn’t even much of a revelation as it’s common sense that Mc did not sleep with Harold and implied he is innocent since beginning. You literally need to expand my comment before you have to read it.
Talking about respect on spoilers while you post wrong one just to get shock factor. If you haven’t finish the novel don’t put spoilers here, go to novel discussion if you want to talk about it while you were still finishing it.

And it’s, alas, just as I expected. The ML knows that MC was kept locked up alone in a house for his whole childhood, without any papers nor any education, and that he was preyed upon by the ML’s father who tried grooming him. He knows his family knew and that they didn’t do anything about it, instead calling MC the culprit.
Yet, when MC is OBVIOUSLY getting abused, gangraped, and then ML sees him sleeping with the guy who groomed MC, ML chooses to believe his (prick) family (which he doesn’t like much) instead of MC… I just can’t. This author doesn’t take any of this seriously at all, and this just makes it so bad. Oh and, also, before he thought his lover was a man eater, he accepted making him live with his whole family (who participated in MC’s abuse one way or another) in their house, with MC’s groomer.
He’s not just a scumbag, he’s shit and has zero freaking ounce of intelligence in him, and acts like a prick. I wish he would suffer, but seeing the quality of the writing I fear this dumbassery will just be brushed off.
