Oh wait I still assumed it'll turn out to be SA? I thought the branding his chest thing would come later (or did I miss it)
I actually don't know ಥ_ಥ
I sure hope he wasn't SAed, that would be too tragic for both of them.
I have doubts because, usually if there is SA, there's foreshadowing in the art style, especially when the art is good. But at most we see blood on his hands. But maybe I'm delusional and don't want him to be SAed (TдT)
I thought him being a rent boy meant, he was a slave passed around the aristocrats to be their plaything even at a young age. I thought even the Marquis was the who owned him and sold him like a pimp. But the ML fell in love with the FL, and the Marquis maybe had twisted obsession of keeping his daughter innocent, so decided not to marry her off to another noble. But instead to his 'dog'. So he could keep them both in his possession. Or something along that line.
I was so heartbroken.
But its not, haha, at least not one involving prostitution. There is something more inherently violating about forced prostitution than forced murder.
Thank goodness...? I guess?
