Does anyone know why the seme is being such a pain? Because of his family or what he went through when he was young as a hyper dominant alpha?

Maybe he suffers from philophobic or alexithymia? What if the side effects of the treatment done caused him to be unable to perceive love or receive affection? Or just someone with psychological issues since there are moments he acted like a psycho. One thing for sure, he's definitely overly obsessive and possessive
I actually don't hate claris now , i hope she can marry leandre and live happily with him at least. They are not bad. Leandre did try to make a huge mistake but he so sincerely regretted and apologised and actually did not plead to get the princess back, and the princess accepted his apologies and doesn't hate him even if she got such a traumatic experience. They both have changed now and became better persons after their imprisonment. I believe they deserve a second chance in their live. A second chance to live happily by themselves and take redemption and lessons from their past deeds.
