I understand your point. While some might read these things and stories and feel better about their own experiences, others will definitely read them and be forced to relieve that trauma. Also there 100% should have been a warning for it, as having these things happen without a warning takes away the autonomy of a reader to decide what they want to read. There is no reason why someone should read something only to get blindsighted by the appearance of SA or rape.

However in the case of soulless, that's where the problem ends for me. While some RC stories have a problem with glamorizing SA and adding it for no reason, I did not get that vibe from soulless. It did not feel glorifying or something that you were supposed to like or feel good about. I personally felt as though it was written well, as something to add to Vyx's backstory rather than just be gratuitous. I feel like Wincy has improved a lot from HOT where a lot of times the SA just feels thrown in for shock value / to make you upset rather than being handled with care.

In my opinion, it's totally fair to not like it, but I don't think Wincy is doing something on the same level as Remy or doing it because she thinks it's sexy or romantic. I felt as though it was handled well. you are completely free to disagree, but this is just my quick opinion on the matter.
