this was horrendous, the author fails to employ serious and dark themes like coercion, slavery responsibly, this is just fetishized abuse. at times the author makes lev's promiscuity disturbing, but the conclusion of the story left me baffled. the worldbuilding was underused. this story had the potential to explore coercive themes yet it leans into fetishism. the mc is never shown to have developed in character.
It's not particularly well-written when it comes to the structure of the story. The pacing improves drastically towards the end, but initially, it's quite abrupt. The plot is great, but the execution lags behind a little, I guess. There is also some sort of magical thinking surrounding the policeman, who is portrayed as the only "righteous" and "smart" person in this corrupted world of "justice." It tries to handle dark themes responsibly, and I can see some success in that. Overall, I found it to be a fairly immersive horror piece.
