I’m not usually one who wants the FL to be all goody two-shoes (in fact that tends to annoy the hell out of me) but before she randomly (at least it seemed that way to me) turned on a switch that said “I’m going to pretend to act crazy now” it felt actually a little horrific which was great. The thing with him staring down the silver-hair while she punctured her throat with the spear was honestly a little dreadful.
I actually thought for a hot sec that it was going to take a turn and he’d suddenly switch to a different tune. Maybe him chaining (figuratively, or maybe not -shrug- lol) the FL to him so she wouldn’t be able to leave him bc he’s so obsessed with her and her having this horrid realization that she’s never been in control all along and now what is she going to do since the ML is going to be king one day and she’s got to stop him….or something idk lol.
I guess I suddenly thought it switched to an interesting psychological horror twist but nah, we got a lady unable to actually get a good revenge bc the dude basically died peacefully in his sleep via gas or smth and her actual revenge turned out it to be doing a (weird) monologue over a dead corpse. Oh yeah, and then deciding it was a good time to fuck in the same room as said corpse. Huh….
Maybe the author wanted to subvert expectations or smth bc these types of stories usually have a big shebang of a conclusion and they wanted to surprise the audience but it fell a short for me personally -shrug-
