What did the dumb bitch expect? She keeps shoving him away, getting mad at him for not "waiting" for her to figure out her fucking feelings (even though he is), and then says she regrets giving him a chance. Neither of them are perfect but I can't fucking stand her. (LOL this one really upset the hypocrites who think she's a fuckin saint, get outta here with that nonsense)
People whining about this not being proper bdsm are so boring. It was obvious from the start that this wasn't healthy or correct bdsm. What I'm annoyed at is the sudden 180 shift in personality from the top. I guess he was just hiding his true self?? Bottom is still aroused from it all, the magic masochist trope. This has become a mess going nowhere with random kinks. I did cringe when he spilled water on his ass and kept spanking him--that shit hurts! Odd the author knew that since I haven't seen it elsewhere yet author can't write good bdsm lol
One thing that really stands out to me other than the pure force of willpower from the bottom is that he actually ENJOYS the sex. I'm not saying this is morally better, but it's certainly easier to read than the ones where they're clearly not enjoying any part of it and it's this constant. Also though, his body is probably just being trained to that sort of stimulation lol ps please stop gambling bby ;-;
Yeah. That's what I noticed too. At first he was only turned on because they were hitting his prostate or rubbing his nipples which is obviously going to stimulate him but now giving head is turning him on. I hope him getting dicked down isn't enough of a reason to keep in contact with these two after getting out prison. Luke please, a good dick appointment isn't worth your life










Tl;dr: They're two traumatized people stuck in a cycle. I'll complain about whichever side I can not relate to, and naturally empathize with the one I do. That's life. Stop crying about which one is "right" because they're both flawed, and we're allowed to complain about it.

Edited from a comment below because srsly you guys: It's not hard to understand that women have flaws too. They make mistakes. She's made many, and so has he. My problem is that he could have died a beast. Instead she showed up and well the story happened. She's not the saint you all pretend she. A fucked up past (putting it VERY mildly) doesn't excuse ANYTHING. New life she chooses her behavior. Trauma fucks you up. She's fucked up. She's not innocent just because trauma has led her to help traumatize someone else. Period. Neither one of them are innocent. If someone called him a dumb bastard (as someone did say he was toxic in comments) and someone would agree, but I call her a dumb bitch for how she's acting (which I call myself daily btw) and someone screams and cries about misogyny lmfao make it make sense. Humans sympathize with different fictional characters. Crying about misogyny when people have legit complaints on BOTH SIDES invalidates the argument. I don't know if I'll reply to any novels in response, I don't have the energy. But I'm tired of venting my frustration at fictional characters making people splash piss all over for something irrelevant. I love both characters, I'm mad at her for repeating the past instead of letting go like she seemed to be doing for MORE THAN HALF ThE STORY. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ Ty if you read this tl;dr.
