A few of you ladies have mentioned the Genki Dama now - so for fun (since these pages are damn bleak), leave a 👐 in your comment to charge it.
If we get 20 (unique) commenters before Thursday Feb 1st 8PM (Aussie Central Standard Time) I'll post the next page then, instead of waiting till Friday.
👐👐👐👐
EDIT: damn. Already charged!!
👐👐👐👐👐👐👐
👐👐👐
On another note, I just started getting into this comic! Currently rereading the older chapters and excited to see what lead to the latest pages! (buut maybe I shouldn’t have skipped that far ahead. Well.)
Yay for Genki Dama!!!
SHEZ NOOOO T_T KILL HIM 👐
👐👐👐👐👐👐

GET HIS ASS 👐
It can’t end this way!
👐 Come on, Shez! The power of Leasebound commenters shall lift you!
👐👐👐👐
Go Shez
Wow, this page and the previous one are as uncomfortable as violence against a girl should be. I really feel for poor Shez. No pressure to the author but I’m looking forward to Chris’ doom. I hope he dies, or worse. 🔪
👐 Ahhhh may this moid die soon
👐👐👐👐
^Merriam, Rocky, Rissa and Tine in the background !
More seriously, the suspense is excruciating but it also works so well into seeping through us how horrifying this whole situation is. Depiction of male violence entirely told through the eyes, experiences and feelings of women and girls are so rare, that’s why this chapter really is so vivid. And we only have Shez’s pov here, Merriam’s pov must be just as horrible yet a bit different.
It also really hit so hard and close to our hearts as daughters, like Jaden, that we should be the ones taking over where our parents “lack”, that it’s our duty somehow. It’s such a complex and difficult mindset and emotion…
Wishing Shez a happy 👐 and a very merry dead step-dad.
Ms. Hearts, this is a very heartbreaking and moving page but that aside I have a question for you. Can I make a fan-made Secrecy Office comic where I make what I think Tiffany would make?
👐👐
SHEZ MY BBY I AM SO SORRY
i hope Chris gets destroyed soon

Pop Chris’ nuts like cheap grapes, Shez!

Shez needs all the therapy after this. Understatement I know but seriously, you did such a vivid depiction of male on female violence. Reminds me of when my dad would choke me at age 19. I’m almost 23 and it still feels faint.
CRACK THOSE NUTS
👐👐👐👐👐👐👐
Kick is balls!
PLEASE I NEED THE NEXT PAGE 😭
👐👐👐
👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐
Come on Shez! We believe in you!
Cannot wait for this man to be feeding worms. I do wish the worms could have higher quality feed but they’re not picky so I’m just projecting my preferences on them, they’ll enjoy the calories, I’ll enjoy the knowledge of his disintegrating flesh, everyone wins.
👐👐👐👐❤️🔥👐👐👐👐
👐👐👐👐
The cliffhangers are killing me! I am ready for Shez to succeed, but I keep remembering that the backstory is supposed to end in early March and that Shez probably won’t hace her success until close to the end of February.
On a different note, I love how you blurred the image as her vision blurred. Your artistic style is amazing.
👐👐👐👐👐
👐👐👐👐 yessss i need this moid gone faster
Poor Shez… This chapter made me wish this was one of those fighting animes, one of the girls would get a sudden power-up and annihilate the evil-doer so hard, the police would file it under X-Files.
👐👐👐👐
Charge, charge, chaaaaarrggeeeee!!!!
Don’t give up Shez! You can beat Chris! You can save your family!
👐👐👐
also, great job with the realism on these two pages, they’re very difficult to look at. choking has never been “”kinky”” or fun or anything other than deadly.
👐
This is terrifying, even though I know she’s okay in present time. Excellently done. Your art has seriously improved so much since you started, and I feel your storytelling has too!

👐👐👐 kill!!!!!
God, this page is just so sad 🙁 like… there’s plenty of horror there too, of course, but just… imagining Shez’s disbelief and disappointment and shame. All her hard work, and – apparently – all for nothing. She couldn’t even get one hit in on Chris. Brutal.
It also reminds me of how she spoke to Jaden about being brutalized by the AGPs too – Shez definitely was thinking about her own history at the hands of violent men, and how much she would’ve wanted the comfort of a peer.
And I know you’ve alluded to Rocky and Karissa still having some level of fondness for Chris after all this crap happens, but if they’re witnessing any/all of this I’m really worried about the effect it has on their psyches. Rocky was already physically hurt herself, and ofc she and Karissa are just so young and helpless…
I know that they’re only small children and it’s understandable that they’d have conflicting feelings about the man who used to happily read The Very Hungry Caterpillar to them as they sat in his lap, but I just hope that Shez and Meriam will be able to keep them safely separated and be able to explain to them (when they’re old enough) why he wasn’t a good person.
This poor family has been through enough already without having to deal with some kids suffering from Stockholm syndrome for a father as bad as Chris.
Throughout this chapter, I’ve thought about things I’ve read where men try to downplay just how painful a nut shot actually is because they don’t want women to know how effective a self-defense technique it can be.
Or how one of the other most effective techniques, gouging the eyes, is almost never taught, because… oh no, a precious moid’s eyes? How dare we injure our attacker for wanting to kill us, I guess.
Anyway. GET HIS ASS. BECOME NUTSMASHER 5000.
