Hi Checkmate lovers, I need a FULL retelling of TWs; EXACTLY what happens to the top and the bottom by any adults (I mean as much detail as possible) bc ik they're minors when the pedophilia happens. I also need to know why everyone was shipping the bottom with the boss (?) Bc i don't wanna be here for weird sexual undertones while aiming for one relationship (why I avoid a whole list of stories acc). I really need everything, I cannot go thru shock /surprise when I get to trauma-inducing parts. Please guys, I know this manhwa has some strong ass fans, I'm begging bc I rlly love obsessive/possessive bottom (full way) but I cannot be here if I get shocked by pedophilia.


Thanks so much

    I’ve tried to be as detailed as possible, but please know some descriptions may be difficult to understand due to the presence of non triggering dialogue in between so I’m sorry if it isn’t up to par. Im also doing this while re reading it as there is a lot of things that happen that i can’t explain unless i re read it.

    Chapter 4
    - A man is seen forcefully kissing Jung Eunsung.
    - Eunsung is seen clearly telling him to stop.
    - The mc watches from behind a wall and tries to take a picture to use as leverage against Eunsung for being gay.
    - MC drops the phone, exposing himself spying on them.
    - The man walks away, telling Eunsung to “call me later you’ll know what happens if you don’t.”

    Chapter 5
    - The MC starts interrogating Jung Eunsung about the man who kissed him.
    - Mc makes inappropriate and sexual remarks, including Asking if Eunsung is “the available type”
    -Asking if Eunsung is a bottom
    -Making several sexually charged statements that imply blame on Eunsung’s part. Though these comments are an attempt to provoke Eunsung, they may come across as blaming him for what happened.

    Eunsung becomes angry and asks MC the following questions while pinning MC against the wall
    “Would you sleep with me if we were compatible?” “Why are you provoking me?” Eunsung then Grabs the MC’s ass.

    MC scared and angry says
    -“I told you, don’t.” and “Let go of me.”

    Eunsung pushes the MC onto the bed and says
    -“I’ll teach you what I like and don’t like, so just stay along for the ride.” MC says “No,” and “I didn’t come here for this,” and again, “Don’t touch me.”

    Eunsung says to MC
    -“You look scared don’t be.” Eunsung continues, saying He’s “into types like MC” That he’s “turned on” and will “be gentle.”

    MC screams
    -“Don’t!” and “Stop!”
    Eunsung flips him over for “not cooperating.” MC says “Just let me go and I’ll leave.” and repeatedly: “No, no, no.”

    Eunsung puts his fingers in the MC, while the MC screams “I’m gonna kill you.”

    Chapter 6
    The MC is shown crying while having sex with eunsuns
    Internally MC says how much he hates whats happening and how much he hates his body for reacting
    Eunsung says
    - “you look like you’re having fun.”
    - “you’re already crying.”
    - “don’t get used to it cause it will be troublesome”

    MC yells at eunsung
    -“don’t touch me”
    -“not like that”
    eunsung responds
    -“how can i stop when you’re obviously enjoying it?”
    MC says
    -“havent you had enough?”
    - “can you stop now?! And “no no” as he climaxes on eunsungs face

    Eunsung can be seen covering MCs mouth, telling him to “shut up” as this happens. Eunsung wipes off MCs cum and says
    -“looks like you needed this more than me.”
    - “lets say i did you a favor”
    Eunsung then puts MCs cum into MCs mouth causing MC to cough with a look of disgust.

    Mc proceeds to choke eunsung and yells “ I’ll kill you!!!” and “i hate you!!”

    Eunsung says
    - “give me a blowjob and I’ll let you go.” -“if you don’t wanna i can just flip you over again. You choose.”

    Chapter 7
    The chapter opens with MC giving eunsung a blowjob there is less triggering dialogue in this scene. The act ends with MC telling eunsung “if there’s a next time, you’ll be the one being fucked” and “ill make you pay double” (Eunsung climaxes as he pushes MCs head down i should mention that)

    This was alot of writing so if you want me to continue let me know if this even helped ya

    Also as for any pedophilia as far as i know everything happened after college or during college making them adults. If that was your only concern regarding Trigger warnings

2delete May 5, 2025 8:03 pm

As if she isn't a whole ass adult creeping and predating on a fckinh teen. Jail for those in the comments who r getting mad at the minor for being groomed by a whole ass creepy mfer. Y'all hv a weird thing where if a top/seme/wtv is the one being SA'd/groomed, it's counted as cheating or smth tht they wanted, it's crazy shit. Y'all it's just A SEXUAL POSITION (+ they're teens so idek why it matters???), it shouldn't dictate whether a minor has the basic human right of not being SA'd by an adult as a minor.

    There's a second volume and I'm legit dying to read this plsplsplsplspls

2delete April 28, 2025 10:17 am

For everyone in the comment section who doesn't understand the author's decisions with the second 'couple' or who hasn't experienced the same sibling dynamic:

Maybe its because I feel gut wrenching love for my siblings like I'm legit insane about them. But when you're an older sibling + you have younger siblings with an age gap (like more than 5 years), who you RAISE (parentification rip), what ends up happening in a lot of cases is tht u start seeing them as your kids. I have read this book multiple times and yea I do see the chemistry between the personalities but I don't see any remote chances of romance or the brother developing feelings for yeom ra (as somebody who basically raised her siblings), I can't possibly fathom him having any romantic towards this man who not only killed his baby/child sibling but also tortured him for centuries. Like yea, his life was sad and sure he was abused but im not even kidding when I say that my siblings murderer could be a rape victim and it could be an accident but I would never be able to truly forgive or forget much less develop feelings. The brother gave me 'I'm crazy about my sibling/child and will do anything for him inlcuding murder' (why I related to him sm) so it just would be misplaced jn his character arc if he did develop romantic feelings for said dude. I can see pity and, maybe, empathy but I can never imagine feeling anything for someone who murders your younger sibling. What he did to the brother was inhumane and absolutely vile. In bl any criminal behavioral responses that's not hardcore rape is pretty widely accepted as long as it's not rape and our initial response is just to be like o why wouldn't they have any romance its not like he raped him but realistically, ppl who adore their younger siblings + raised them would never be able to digest looking at someone who hurt them in a romantic manner. It's not about obsession vs love, its about good writing, it would be very misplaced if someone who is crazy about their younger sibling + raised them from birth suddenly became okay with ever dating someone who they regard as their sibling's murderer.

I remember this one person tht I was kinda seeing simply insulted my younger sibling and that was the moment tht I decided to cut off the relationship completely. Like the instant (legit took a min) they decided to spit something even remotely negative about my sibling, that was the end of it. I couldn't look at their face a minute longer. They could never become a pair (unless out of Stockholm or coercion) bc the older brother would not date someone he regards as his brother's murderer and his centuries long torture coordinator.

I wanted to read this for a while but before I start, can someone who has read this story in detail answer a questions of mine?

1. Does Cirrus get raped by tht old fcker pedo or does get SAd? I was raped as a 7 year old by someone older so I rlly need to know before I start.
2. Do they have relationships with other people? Is that explained?
3. Do they have sex in the story? I just rlly wanna avoid any chapters w high schoolers having the nasty (personal preference but I get icked out), I'll still read it just wanna skil the chapters that have it.
4. Are there love triangles in the story?

Thanks for any and all help!

    Itzz_A_Trap February 28, 2025 11:08 pm

    1. I thought he got raped but other people said no, but he def got Sa'd 100%
    2. No
    3. No highschooler sex just making out
    4. Yes for the first couple of chapters

    Currymucher February 28, 2025 11:09 pm

    I can’t remember if it was rape but he does get sa by his teacher, you see it coming so you can skip over the chapter like I did.
    No they don’t have any relationships with other people, if you mean romantically
    No they don’t have sex, there are scenes of them being intimate though but it’s mainly kissing and stuff if I’m remembering correctly
    No love triangles.

    datura February 28, 2025 11:11 pm

    1. Cirrus is SAd once by his teacher when he was 10(?), no super detailed scenes though theres one panel that i hate but it isnt graphic. And skylar also has a bad experience with bullies, SA in the form of kissing he didnt consent to.
    2. Neither of them date other people except in the past.
    3. No sex in any eps, maybe implied in latest chaps when they are college age
    4. I wouldn’t really call it a love triangle, since the only actual requited romance is between skylar and cirrus.

    Gold Mine February 28, 2025 11:11 pm

    1. I'm pretty sure it was just SA, but I will try to find the ch number so you can skip if you like
    2. No they don't
    3. They don't have sex, I'm pretty sure you can't draw high schoolers having sex in Korea
    4. Skylar likes someone else at first, but it's not really a love triangle

    Gold Mine February 28, 2025 11:14 pm

    Thanks for replying so quickly yall! Even the thought of a child getting raped rlly freaks me out even if it's not explicitly shown and tho I can still skip the chapter (this is acc why I couldn't read Checkmate or Don't Pick up Boyfriends From the bin). This was rlly helpful for me!!

    Giggly February 28, 2025 11:26 pm

    1) yes in ch 79. Skylar also gets raped in ch 35?? and definitely in ch 36 (its not shown but it IS insinuated)
    2) No they don’t date anyone else in the story they only have friends and family
    3) Nope they don’t. Things do get steamy but they only ever make out (hence the shounen ai tag)
    4) This ones kinda difficult to answer but I would say there aren’t any

    2delete February 28, 2025 11:28 pm

    Wait can someone clarify this, some ppl are saying that Cirrus gets raped and others are saying he doesn't, tht he got SAd instead??? Also, I thought Skylar just got SA'd?

    Giggly February 28, 2025 11:50 pm

    Since nothing is explicitly said or shown it’s hard to tell (sorry abt if my previous comment confused you)

    TW (nothing written graphically tho) but ok i believe cirrus’s teacher forced him to perform fellatio on him, and for skylar it was just the non consensual kissing from my perspective, i thought he just got beat up the other times though i could be wrong

    ok i went back and reread and def skip ch35 for sure, they did draw it to look like rape (i read those chaps so fast so i mustve misses it) but the main bully had said ‘do it in a way that doesnt show’ when referencing how he didnt want people to find out he was getting beaten up, so i had taken that to mean they took his clothes off to punch him but it probably was the other way. I wish they both hadny had to go through such traumatic shit reading stuff like this makes me want to murder anyone that hurts children :(

I'm wildly interestested in this story, like the plot goes HARDD and the relationship dynamics are a ten (as expected from the author of Love Gym which i can't recommend enough) so I was looking into whether they were gonna continue the story and apparently there's a full fledged version coming out??? But don't quote me on it, if it's untrue imma cry.
