Can someone explain to me why the baby had to be taken by the ex-wife again? Was it actually explained in the flashback? Did the Duke actually believe Reina was cursed so he separated them? That would also explain why the Duke didn't tell her father to back off in the first place like he did in the new time line.

from what I can understand, it seems like the fl father told the duke to keep reina lonely for the rest of her life, and this probably included keeping her child from her too. The ex being the one to raise him was also because of the father, he forced to the duke to keep her around so that reina will be even more miserable. The duke complied bc her father said he would kill reina and their son if he didn't, so the duke thought he was "protecting" his family

I only ship her with Khalid. I know he's the one who killed her but he's still the most interesting male character in this story. The have an intriguing dynamic and I want to know more. Love stories where past life matters
The Duke sucks ass imo also don't like how he looks. He's a cliche tsundere guy and not interesting me
Also this makes me miss A little Wild

It was good before and I don't mind them having a break to reevaluate themselves and sort things out but now the fl is just self-deprecating "they're so perfect together" "no way he actually likes me " like i actually liked that they took the break up route which I thought was for a more mature reason and it makes sense.
Did she take all that time in the dessert rediscovering herself for nothing? She's found out that she's not dying but instead of bouncing back (which is hard but) she's doing the opposite and becoming more insecure. I just don't want to see a character I love go down that route for a guy

"The person Medea could not help but love the most" omg I know they'll brush it off as close sisters or some bs but I want it to be gay so bad. Like damn poetic. Psyche really feels like the only person Medea has been most vulnerable to.
And this was said by Helio of all people, oh the angst. Unrequited love hurts so bad and but so good at the same time
The emperor and empress are so cute
