It is toxic. Mc is an assassin and is hired to assassinate ml. However their relationship isn’t exactly toxic. Ml is interested, and mc is also curious as to what ml is about, with the added tension that he needs to stay on his good side to be able to assassinate him later. No abuse so far. Few scenes where it could be considered unconsensual, but it sort of glazed over that. Story is okay. Both the characters are funny, specifically the mc, but they’re also both weird and have their own motives. If you’re into tropes like possessive mafia bosses, hired killers, comedy intertwined with action, oddball mc and ml, straight mc turned gay, then you’d like it. If not, I wouldn’t waste your time reading it. Right now in the plot it’s a lot more complicated as they’re trying to set up their relationship. (At chapter thirty three I think… sigh.) it is interesting how you hardly get the pov from ml so you never really know what he’s thinking. Anyways it might be too early on to make decisions on if it’s a good read haha
(This is coming from someone who has not read the novel so idk where it’ll go from here!)

Is it toxic? Does it have rape or abuse? is it a good story to read? Someone tell me please
