Thieving

An adult, author and survivor of the harsh creatures of nightmare lands getting one-upped by a 17 year old uno.

Ugh. Please let the cliches end already. Author I beg of you

Hello red flag.

Another generic novel. Should’ve known when the title has villain in it. Nine out of ten times it’s just a sham.

Of course.

It was a deal for god’s sake. It was beneficial to both parties. You can use another way to be bring them close instead of using this forced plot.

I hope he keeps the scars. A stark reminder of his perilous journey

Sigh…oh well. I’m just gonna proceed with the idea that he’s not truly a villain. More peace of mind

I’ll be real. Why? You’ve explicitly stated he wishes to return to his old world so that in itself makes him a loner. Why the romance? Or even any deep attachments or friends. Makes no sense whatsoever.

That’s the spirit. No attachments. Just a clear drive towards his goal. After all, she isn’t truly his family.
