Plot and characters are very surface level.  Not much depth.  Lots of smut, particularly of the violent nature

This was neither good nor bad.

 In this world, and in yours, if you're not the monster, then you're the prey. And we can't have that, Darling. 

A short dark retelling of Peter Pan with RH; where he kidnaps a Darling every few years, whenever they turn 18, because their ancestors stole his shadow; which bring him power and makes him a ruler. Without it he is weak. 

Now, he kidnaps Willow Darling on her 18th birthday. He taught that she was like all the previous ones; scared; upset; crybaby. But Willow isn’t. She, on the other hand, has hots for all the guys… 

Willow grew up with a mentally traumatic mother(due to being kidnapped) and has been practically raised herself. She knew about her mother’s profession: a prostitute. From a young age, there was a woman that she idolized name Stella. Stella is good at what she is doing. She knew how to use her knowledge and body to manipulate greedy men.

And so when Willow gets kidnapped to Netherland. She tried those tactic. What she didn’t expects is for them to see through it all. 

-

Sometimes I got second hand embarrassment from Willow. She is definitely those FMC who think of themselves better then the other girls.

Peter Pan is a dick, in the original and in every retelling, and this one is no different. But he’s a hot dick with good reasons so I’ll allow. Vane, you mysterious fucker, we’ll break you soon and it will be sweeter the longer you fight it.
