How to read White Out and avoid the
sexually explicit sections
Note: avoiding these sections will allow you to
miss the sexually explicit content, but due to the adult subject matter,
language, and graphic violence, reading the story is
still not recommended for under-age readers.
Two out of the fifteen sections (two out of 32 total scenes) contain graphic sexual content, one a consensual scene and one non-consensual. I recommend that if you are going to skip some content, you read the story using the option on my website where you read each part as an individual page, not the 'read the entire story as one large file' option.
The first scene is the consensual scene. It is the third section of Part 3. Stop reading at the second set of *****************. The first two scenes are very "safe" reading, but the entire third scene is sexually explicit. You are missing some character development for both Sam and Alec, her boyfriend, and a look at the relationship Sam has with Alec. The scene also allows the reader to later be shocked not by the explicit content of the rape scene, but by what happens. Since you won't be reading the explicit content of that scene, this scene is less important.
The second scene is the non-consensual scene. You have two options: one, to skip the scene entirely, and two, to read the 'safer' sections of the scene. I recommend the second, because the scene is not 100% explicit content, and this scene is the pivotal scene of the entire story. The non-consensual scene is entirely contained within Part 8. There are no other scenes in Part 8.
To get the most out of the scene, I recommend that at the point where you stop reading, you scroll completely to the bottom of the page and then begin to scroll back up; otherwise you'll miss some important points, both in plot and character development. You are "safe" reading the scene until they start to kiss. After that, the scene becomes uncomfortable, and I recommend that you cut away at the point where he rolls her over. At the absolute latest, you'll want to cut away when you hit this sentence: "As the darkness rushed in from all sides, she wondered distractedly where Alec Colson had learned how to do a blood choke."
Scroll completely to the bottom of the page, and then slowly scroll back up. There's a plot point you'll miss if you don't. Begin reading at the paragraph that starts "The absurdity of the statement". On my screen, you find it just above the top of the screen when you line up the last line with the bottom of the screen. You should know before you decide to read it that this section will probably be uncomfortable reading, because it is immediately post-rape.
Thank you for reading.
