This is an example of nts done decently. You have a good amount of control and can safe word across a majority of the story though the ending is weak. The other dude is garbage tier and it does make the story worse for it, he's too self serving and too self involved and the story is contrived ofc, but its creative. All in all solid from the author. U can go as deep as u want or as shallow and that's great. Because of the setting unfortunately you don't get nearly as much connecting between the couple but that's a byproduct of the plot. More meaningful choices near the end would be nice or something to show her commitment to him rather than to dick on the nts route but otherwise pretty solid overall.
Are there any others that are similar themed and paced? I've seen the other works by the author. Just a hard genre to find seems it always leans too much into ntr and reader powerlessness.
