I had notes on this but they've mysteriously disappeared.
The MC owns an auction house that auctions off humans into slavery and is surprised when the LI he buys there is a traumatized individual? Like what does he expect from human trafficking victims? Also knowing this he still runs this business that traffic's humans . Makes zero sense.
The other thing that really bothered me was the seafood poisoning the morning after they had had vigorous sex like nobody in the history of all time has had food poisoning from shellfish and then wanted to have sex of any kind.
Also from the trigger warnings I'd seen that the MC is a survivor of childhood sexual assault and yet refers to the love interest as a kid which was weird (when he wasn't referring to him as a pack or a dog and yet there is no puppy play or age play in this?)

I cant see how Gin and Ash's "feelings" for each other could ever grow to be genuine when their beginning is THIS BAD... and I've read a lot of "bad" relationship beginnings! But this? To paraphase David from Schitts Creek, i have never seen a male lead (Gin) do and say so many wrong things one after the other ..consecutively.. in a row. Like why any of it?
