how did he not immediately start crying in the trunk bro that is scary as fuck. or when he saw it was his own bf that kidnapped him? if the author wants to go down this toxic route they should at least make his reactions more interesting like where is the drama! where is the thriller!
there was no redemption arc, just a period of jk showing basic human decency for the first time in his life, and what finally brought them together at the end was more of dan suffering. the writing is soooo ass guys seriouslyyy how is anybody emotionally attached to this
I feel like he started liking the sex and maybe felt like he can never scape specially after how the duke found him back after he first ran away. It's definitely weird how or why he can't kill the Duke. But in the recent upload it shows how he liked his face so maybe that's why
the only reason this was created is to cause suffering
