You better snatch that man up and take everything he can offer you! Now is not the time for pride. You are obviously being closed in on by those who would harm you
AMEN
I'm sure the storyline will "friendzone" him, but he's everything she needs. Supportive of her goals, he doesn't try to smother her ambitions or try to dissuade her from reaching outside the expectations other people set for her. We should all be so lucky to have a "Carsein" in our lives
And she has refused to try to help him understand. She's been punishing him for things he never did, so of course he's gotten angry. He has no way of understanding her thoughts and feelings and she refuses to actually communicate, she just gets angry and expects him to take whatever she throws at him. While true he's been being a douche lately, the reality is She is the Toxic one
Lots of Rulers had mistresses, but they sure as hell were put in their rightful place as the side ho. It's like somewhere along the lines the emperor forgot the side ho isn't supposed to be on an equal status with the empress/foreign royals and the other nobles
No hotel scene, and now nothing until after sunrise the next day??? You think us Readers are wholesome or something??
Also that "Where does he get the confidence?" line. Like seriously Lady, have you met your husband??
calm down horny child
Lmaoooi hshshshs
Lol I burst in laughter
Most guys aren't. However he isn't abusive, he just doesn't know her anymore than she knows him. He seems rash and abrasive, but not only has he spent years surrounded by men out fighting for their lives, as far as he knew, she was in on setting him up along with her father. She's a stranger to anything but disdain and vicious abuse, so it will take time for her to understand she can talk to him without threat of harm
The story jumped around too much. I hope it's not a continuing thing...
He's just in love with a woman who doesn't want anyone's affection. That's hard.
