Summary [As given by the author]: A tale of unrequited love on four tiers.
Plot: 9.5/10
Without giving too much away, it's a bit of a love square between Chanyeol, Baekhyun, Sehun, and Luhan. Baekhyun loves, Chanyeol, Chanyeol loves Luhan, Luhan loves Sehun, and Sehun keeps cheating on him. The plot is pretty unique, however I think it could have been executed a little better, as some parts were a bit confusing, however as the story progessed, it made more sense.
Character Development: 9.5/10
I feel like Sehun's character was a bit underdeveloped here, but the rest of the characters were pretty solid. I like how you integrated the characters' backstories well into the story, as that helped to explain how the characters interacted with each other.
Spelling+Grammar: 10/10
Some sentences were a little odd, but nothing major to complain about.
Layout: 10/10
Nothing weird to speak of here.
Overall Opinion: 8.5/10
It was a good story, but I personally wasn't very interested in it, as the horror genre doesn't particularly appeal to me, and the way you wrote this story confused me a bit, especially in the beginning, which isn't a good thing, because the beginning of the story is what hooks readers in, and if it's too confusing, people won't want to continue reading. When I reread it, it made more sense, but I still didn't particularly enjoy it as much. However, it is a very well written story that will most likely appeal more to those who are interested in the horror/twisted relationship genre.
