Wow I was not expecting that there would be a story to this. I came in expecting this to be all lewd with no plot, then I came out with mixed emotions at the end. I'm not excusing what the ML did to the FL and his way of expressing his love, but they're quite pitiful in their own ways. The story shows how love and resentment and can cause one to be twisted. But I'm glad to see their problems get somewhat resolved with a fitting ending where it's not exactly a happy ending, but it's not sad either.
Among the 3 chapters, this one feels the most abrupt in the FL's character development due to the time skip. Although the second chapter drops some hints to her eventual transformation, the flow of the story feels a bit off going from FL gets drugged and resists ML's advances to her being drug free and is acting on "her own will" (how much of that is true is up to your speculation). Perhaps adding a bit more context/flashback regarding to the changes that happened between the time skip would improve the flow of the story better.
Props to the VA for doing such an amazing job at portraying ML's complex emotions especially toward the end where everything gets revealed, and his voice is exactly like how I imagine to be for this kind of story (dayum sexy oji-san). This series uses the appropriate placement and amount of sound effects to not distract the listener, but I do wish that they would include some "papapa" sound in the background when they do it as it would create a more immersive experience (but of course, this is just a personal preference).
Last but not least, thank you VerdelishJP for the translation. It's not very common for audio drama to get translated, so I really appreciate for the opportunity to enjoy this mini series. I'm looking forward to seeing more English translated audio dramas for female audience.
