Yes you're right. The King was a rape victim by the previous Queen and Blanche is a child of rape. That's why the King avoids Blanche. Also the reason why the King also avoids our FL because before the FL got reincarnated the original owner of the body also made advances and tried to force herself to the King. So I do understand what he's going through. It's already a big step for him to have dinner with both girls and an even bugger one that he actually agreed to dance practice and also danced with Blanche. All the other MF's in the comments knew he had trauma from rape and are acting like total as$holes saying that "he was wrong" and "he shouldn't have been a bitch about it."
So at first, I was going to comment something like, 'This mf not gonna dance with our Queen??' cause like our mc cool as but then I went down into the comments and found out HES A RAPE VICTIM.
I felt so bad for even thinking about it because He was raped and shit and it must've been traumatizing to have the feelings from when that happened, surface up just by seeing her hand.
If I'm not correct, sorry I was just reading through the comments and made a guess.
