Agreed. I'm not afraid to admit that during some periods of my life, I've read pretty dark slavery/nonconsensual sex-themed books and enjoyed them.
As long as they were strictly fictional, of course. In real life, such things are as horrible for me as for any normal person. Now I agree that child/adult sex is distasteful even in fiction, but does that mean it should never be depicted? Never for titillating purposes, perhaps, but even that is somewhat gray area... 14, by the way, is legal age for sexual relationships in many countries.
