I actually like the ending. It's a story between a mountain/wild entity and a human who is kindhearted and in need of love. Todd says so himself Dennis is the first one he's loved like this, first what human? victim? prey? The tragedy for me is that Todd might really have come to meet him at the tavern later on. Or he might not. He might just be a predator or he might have gotten attached.
While I do agree that SA is overdone, one thing about the comments is kinda irritating me. Everyone is up in arms about MLs future actions but what MC has been doing also counts as rape in a lot of countries. Having sex under false pretenses is illegal. He's having sex with him while copying his phone and bugging his home. Like that's a huge breach of privacy. Maybe that's the reason he don't react to MLs actions in the future because he is taking advantage of him too.
Maybe people have talked about this before but I didn't see a comment mentions it so.








Cheating this cheating that. If you guys can't handle haram stories don't read them. I don't read tropes that I dislike either. Instead you force yourself and then the whole comment section is just the same copy pasted comment.
