I read the first book but tbh while Emi was turned on by Kaoru, she never wanted to cheat on Suo. The one time they slept together, Emi was drunk and even called out Suo's name while doing the deed. Shouldn't it be Kaoru's fault for sleeping with a drunk woman? That's dubcon/noncon and may count as rape. Even later Emi kept rejecting Kaoru but he was the one who kept coming on her and even going as far as threatening her saying he had videos and pictures of that night.
Emi didn't struggle between Kaoru and Suo, she struggled because she didn't know if she should say she slept with Kaoru or not to Suo. Its bad that she ended up blaming everything on Suo at the end. Both of them were at fault and needed to communicate tbh.
I don't like how everyone forgive Kaoru though. He literally threatened Emi with sex videos (even if he only said it verbally and actually didn't have any videos or pictures taken). Tbh the first couple, FL was the best and the second couple ML was the best.
