Rare miss for the author, which is a shame because the characters are compelling and it has fine world building, but the problem is in the beginning. Uke who is a 9 tailed fox is regarded as a freak and a monster, and is sent to kill one of the leaders of the wolf tribe by pretending to be his bride. Wolf sees right through it and uke tries to run but gets captured and gets brutally raped. After this uke is hoping to be killed and seme’s personality gets a complete turn around. He’s interested in the uke and is trying to keep him alive and happy, despite how horribly he was treated in the beginning. Of course they fall in love and get a happy ending despite the prejudice of the tribe, but overall I didn’t like it. It wasn’t even like the ‘normal’ yaoi rape where the uke’s body responds despite not liking it, it is a completely one sided, violent attack and it leaves uke needing to be under medical care. I would skip.
