You’re almost correct.
Cárcel Escalante de Esposa:
Cárcel = jail/prison
Escalante = to climb/escalate
Esposa = wife
Jail/prison + climb + wife
Per novel author, Cárcel is one who willingly climbs into the prison of his wife. Once the story is complete, the meaning becomes clearer as all timelines would’ve already been revealed by the conclusion of the story.
I honestly believe Cárcel is named prison because no matter what life she’s in, she can’t escape him. I adore this story. And this doesn’t even have to do with the current chapter, but when Cárcel found Inés after she was beaten by the prince, there’s something very endearing and heartbreaking on how angry he was on her behalf. I think he’s always loved her in every single one, sigh, all the times where they juuuuuusttt missed one another due to timing. She could’ve been saved from worlds of hurt.
