Grayson says he raped him because he verbally said “No”. He had certain expectations and while he did want to be with him he didn’t want it that way. He got overpowered with pheromones and gave in but that’s almost like someone being fed an aphrodisiac. You’d all say it was rape then wouldn’t you? While I don’t like the idea of of it being rape either it “is” rape and the author makes it clear to us readers that yes, it’s rape because he said so.
Literally. Sometimes authors make the line blurry so people can “interpret “ how they’d like but this author tells the readers “no” in this situation is rape. There’s no room to argue
he didnt just say it he literally kicked him off him but because of his pheromones and dane forcing himself on grayson, grayson's rut was triggered by dane's pheromones and they had sex, so technically it is still considered rape
