I love the alpha x beta set-up, but it makes no sense that they're able to get married. Kinda makes the whole thing feel contrived.
Maximo even threw a fit since he couldn't marry a beta (though in his case his ambition also played a role) so I just don't get how it's even legal when betas are so heavily discriminated against.

    i think it might be bcs theyre both princes and it would also be beneficial diplomatically since their kingdoms would have connections whereas the other dude was only a grand duke or something

    It's also going to be a plot point later but... (some spoilers)











    Since a beta male can't get pregnant, Khalid won't have any heirs, which made his sister king Maryam agree to the marriage more easily. On Renato's side, the emperor is aware of his plans that's why he was given permission.

    I know I read the story and it's in there, I know WHY they're getting married, I'm saying it's strange it's even possible!

    I feel like it’d be stranger for there to be laws against it
    If all the alphas and omegas are so discriminatory against betas in the first place there’s hardly much chance of those kinds of marriages to begin with, seems a bit of an overreaction to make a whole union illegal just because of the very few that might occur

    You're saying it's strange that it's possible, like, you're saying it's not natural that an alpha and beta would ever want to get married, for love or otherwise? ......... Girl, seems like you shouldn't be reading BL then lol

    Replace alpha x beta with boy x boy and you see why you're kinda problematic
