I’m the kind of reader who enjoys watching a powerful, possessive ML grovel. Not because the FL has authority over him or is threatening him, but because she’s ready and willing to walk away. And he realizes that if he doesn’t repent immediately, he will no longer mean anything to her.
And I have been waiting. For SO LONG. For things to get worse. For the ML to cross the line. For the FL break. Just so for this moment where his desperation overtakes his pride and he’s humbled at the feet of a woman he thought he controlled. And by god, it’s here. It’s here.
