I'm surprised that people are complaining about this. I like it. Its just your basic s&m stuff
Doesn't resemble any S&M (or more properly, D&s) that I've seen or been involved with.
What it does resemble is abuse, which I have seen and experienced.
It also resembles bad writing, which tries to be the first but ends up being the second. And oh lordy, I've seen a lot of bad writing.
yeah its a little different but both character clearly like each other so I don't think its that bad. Though I've never really been abused by anyone so I don't know if this would make some people uncomfortable or not
