Also, as someone who usually wants two dudes to end up together in a non-BL story. This one is just not one of those. Like why would you want the duke to be with the emperor, even as a joke? Don’t do that to the duke. He didn’t do anything to be punished like that.
One father is enough, and it’s not the emperor. The only family Shuelina needs is the duke and his two brothers. The prince too, I guess. The emperor can join the empress and her “daughter”, and die for all I care.
I keep reading the ML’s name as “Scoundrel” for some reason. Might be because I’m sleep deprived? But how do you pronounce his name? Sour-a-del? Sou-ra-del? Help! Lol
