When the Villains Unite - DISCLAIMER

This novel contains several sensitive topics that may make several readers uncomfortable. Trigger warnings: mentions of abuse, confinement, sexual assault, grooming, suicidal thoughts, and rape. I will be sure to mark the chapters containing sexual assault (SA) and try my best to keep those chapters separate from non-SA parts. It may inevitable for me to post any SA scenes with non-scenes, so I will write a disclaimer at the top and mark when those scenes end.

This author does a very good job of depicting non-consensual acts, unlike many other novels where it has the “she says no but she really wants it” trope. The author also does a good job at showing any “pleasure” felt from non-consensual acts is PHYSIOLOGICAL and CANNOT be helped. Arousal can occur and it does not mean that it was “enjoyable.” It is not always a violent act. If you wish to read more, click here. Please, when reading explicit content containing these actions, be discerning, critical, and vigilant at how “pleasure” and orgasming are written. No means no, regardless of arousal.

If you or a loved one are a victim of SA, here are some resources for a few countries:

US: National Sexual Violence Resource Center

UK: Rape Crisis England & Wales

Canada: Canadian Women’s Organization

European Countries: Rape Crisis Network Europe
