I think the key word here is that this what you would rather, and not so much what the doctor would rather have. I tend to be a lot more receptive to what my MC wants unless it turns into a brainwashing mess aka Stockholm syndrome, which this has a 50% chance of turning into.
After all, no one would rather be r*ped daily and have their families killed and exiled because some psychopath is delusional and obsessed. I get the appeal in some fictional Psychopaths (that’s how half of my favorite MLs are after all), but this one ain’t it. I welcome a cheater as opposed to that, any day and at any time.
Regardless of how toxic and cruel the king is, his loyalty and obsession with the MC and his devotion feels almost puppy-like makes him so endearing to me..which completely overshadows any toxicity for me. So yeah i hope he'll be the endgame
