This went from cute to abusive really fast.
He's 33. She's 22, but she "looks 16" according to him, and it's gross how much he loves that about her. He loves how innocent and "trainable" she is, it's predatory. They have a whirlwind marriage that she concedes to purely because she feels like she has no other options, and he immediately begins to exert control over her. He doesn't value her consent at all. He even says "there's nothing you can do to stop me" when talking about things she's uncomfortable with.
I get this is a fantasy, but it's not one I would ever want to live through. 2 stars instead of 1 because the beginning was fun, and I did enjoy some of the spice.
