DNF at 50ish pages....
TW: rape
This is just one big ol’ YIKES! Male protagonist rapes the female protagonist when he mistakes her for a prostitute and when he finds out she’s in fact not a prostitute, he’s says well I’ll just set you up in a house and you’ll be my mistress and you’ll learn to like it...
What. In. The. Actual. Fuck.
There’s not enough groveling in the world to redeem this male protagonist
