TW// R@PE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT
Ronan (the male lead) is an absolute bitch (derogatory). I was loving his personality. Actually, he was probably my favourite out of all the guys, but then it turns out to be a lie. This asshole fucking kidnaps Mila and then proceeds to r@pe her!?
I don't give any fucks about what justification anyone gives me. To me, dubious consent = r@pe. Since that scene, everything was seriously a red flag. Also, him recording her having sex with him without her consent? That's a violation. I know this is a dark romance, but r@pe is too much.
Now, he is keeping Mila here against her will and she can't do anything about it (I wish she'd retaliate). ACTUALLY, she did retaliate when he was trying to touch her! RONAN IS A FUCKING RED FLAG.
Also, the fact that he is so stupid that he can't put two and two together. Her father's actions weren't her fault and she literally had no idea what he was doing. And his "fuckup" where the dude he hired almost raped Mila when she first came to Moscow. "My first fuckup was when..." bitch, shut the fuck up. As if she wouldn't already be traumatised from both getting sexually harassed and almost r@ped, and he went and pulled that shit in the name of obsession or love. No. Just no.
