Description
“It was terrible. My husband and this marriage.” Seol Suhyeon, the wife hiding the face of Do Jeonghan, the heir of Cheonkyung Group. She ended the marriage, which had served its purpose, with a divorce lawsuit. But… “We’re divorced, right? But now it’s not just work… Are you desperate to torment people?” “Desperate, huh?” As Seol Suhyeon fiercely glared at him, he calmly looked down at her and spoke softly. “I think that’s correct. That part.” “……!” In the clear desire swirling in Do Jeonghan’s eyes, Suhyeon felt trapped like prey caught by a beast. “Are you… crazy? We’re divorced.” “If you don’t like it, push me away. But I won’t let go.” Suhyeon was flustered by Jeonghan’s suggestive face and desire-filled eyes, responding without even realizing it. What will be the outcome of this divorce…?

My Thoughts on Prey
"Prey" is a complete original novel, still undergoing translation, that dives headfirst into some pretty dark and complex themes. With tags like "yandere," "possessive characters," and "tragic past," I knew I was in for a wild ride, and it definitely delivered on that promise. This story isn't for the faint of heart, touching on sensitive themes within the adult, psychological romance genre.
First Impressions
The story kicks off with a glimpse into the seemingly perfect lives of the main characters at a charity event. I was immediately intrigued by the power dynamic and the undercurrents of tension. The initial setup, with the outwardly admired couple and the female lead's desire for freedom, set the stage for what I hoped would be a compelling exploration of a toxic relationship.
What Works Well
The character development, particularly that of the male lead, is definitely a strong point. The story delves into the complexities of a marriage built on a foundation of unequal power. I'm interested in seeing how the male lead reflects on his past behavior and attempts to make amends. The exploration of his character, and his realization of his past mistakes, adds a layer of depth that elevates the story beyond a simple romance. The female lead's journey to break free from a stifling situation is also something I found engaging.
Areas of Concern
While the premise is intriguing, the story's reliance on potentially triggering tropes could be a drawback for some readers. I would also like to see the female lead given more agency and depth beyond her role as the "submissive wife." I hope the author will ensure that the tragic pasts of both main characters are explored with sensitivity and nuance.

Final Verdict
"Prey" is a dark and potentially gripping novel that explores themes of power, control, and redemption. While it may not be for everyone due to its mature content and potentially triggering elements, I think it could be a worthwhile read for those who enjoy stories with complex characters and morally grey relationships. I would recommend approaching it with caution and being mindful of the themes explored. I'm giving it a tentative 3.5 out of 5.
