So I get why nobody likes the ml, he’s an asshole and he did originally pit his consorts against each other. Like that’s obviously not right but y’all need to understand that he never ever intended to acknowledge any of the women, so in the end it’s not just about the mcs usefulness that he is so obsessed with, it’s more along the lines of him feeling like she does everything for him and is dedicated to him at least in some way, so he prefers her over all the other girls. Is he still an arrogant asshole? Absolutely, but take in to consideration why he is one and distorting the reasons why he chose the mc js ruins the story completely. I personally don’t understand the hate, as an avid reader of historical western novels I tend to start of the book with no faith in the ml and I have to say this book is definitely one of the better ones.
