Clearly, the story of the healing journey of Conor is a massacre for your eyes.
This is so wrong in so many way.
The alpha male toxicity is at his highest: mansplaning, gaslighting, treating the FMC like a child.
She’s been raped at 16. Isolated. Lost her brother in prison. Betrayed by her lover after 2 years. Beaten by her dad. But it’s ok she can deal with it because men are taking care of the business. I mean. Come on.
The MMC does the worst of the worst to treat her PTSD and miraculously it works. There is NO WAY anything could have worked, except reinforcing the trauma.
The “dom” vibes is creepy and weird because it’s part of the “therapy”.
That was bad and infuriating.
Please read the TW, before trying to read this.
But I would recommend you to not waste your time and choose something else to read.
