Why this must be read:
I mentioned in my fandom overview that you either love or hate Mason and his relationship with Alex. Personally I think he is... okay but I don't like his relationship with Alex. Why? It often looks too manipulative to be real and Alex changed too much of herself because of him.
This fic uses this idea of Mason and the Mason/Alex relationship to show us a darker side. The author thematized the abuse carefully and didn't forget to mention the consequences. Alex is shown as a victim but also as a survivor. She isn't weak but like lots of other people in such relationships she needs time to realize that she isn't to blame.
Flashbacks show us moments which showcase how slowly you can slide into such a relationship and how easy it's to blame yourself. It's heartbreaking to read how Alex loses herself and everything which made her Alex Russo.
Justin is the one who is there to help her. Maybe his characterization seems to some people ooc but personally I always thought he would do anything to help/save his family/sister so I think his role in the story fits perfectly.
For me it's one of the best dark!fics in this fandom. It has also a prequel called "Hunted" which gives us the Mason's POV and explains how Alex and Mason got together. It will also give you chills because it describes how easily someone can manipulate other people.
Prey (LJ)
--> She never thought she'd be the girl who put up with this type of thing. But somewhere along the way she lost herself in him, and forgot who she used to be. Justin didn't. (violence, language and implied non-consensual sex -> abusive relationship and victim-blaming)
