This is a rare find. In CNs, where BD*M play is mentioned, it’s portrayed as something that is so deviant, malevolent, tantamount to assault, and just pure bad in the most literal sense.

This novel shows you that BD*M is consensual, pleasurable and enjoyable for people who engage in that particular lifestyle. Looking forward to reading more about how the relationship between the couple develops.

Hiyo, I'm the translator with a few remarks.

I picked out this novel in particular because I found it refreshingly different — it feels extremely rare to find a BD*M novel on NU with a such wholesome and consensual outlook (90% of all the "BD*M" novels I find online on Chinese sites are r*pe-rape-ab*se-rape). It was nice to read something positive, and the author does a good job at introducing and easing the reader into a consensual BD*M experience. It's ideal for readers who have a strong BD*M interest and are... more>> curious about what it is like IRL.

This story is p*rn without plot (PWP) and also extremely short. There's smut in every chapter.

The romance is sort of generic. The protagonist is an unapologetic masochist (i.e. She likes being whipped), and the ML gave me a strong impression that he's always checking to make sure the MC is safe and everything is consensual. There's good aftercare and they are a solid couple.

Basically, this is everything you might expect from a conventional BD*M novel. <<less

Kinda like Fifty Shades of Grey but the female lead is working in the s*x industry. Anyway, nice and consensual. The romance development is a bit too fast and not convincing lol. I only feel physical attraction between them. The ML is also strangely possessive towards to FL by the end which is ironic lol
