While it's not safe BDSM or dom/sub relationship, I still dig this. ML is absolutely jealous and likes MC but doesn't realise it. He's probably never actually liked someone and is just confusing those feelings with the feelings of not being able to control his sub. He was happy just to keep it to a bdsm relationship but his feelings for MC are confusing him and he thinks he needs it to be a dom sub relationship instead to soothe that feeling. And I mean MC is getting the hang of manipulating ML as well to get what he wants. Tolerate what ML wants to do, act the way he wants, and ML will eventually give him what he wants.
