I....liked this so much until it got realistic with the threewivesmarryemallandmakebabiea part. I get why but... Hhhhhh. Do you think Pauliana is ace? Maybe?
I think she just ignores her sexuality due to his love of work and power. It haven't seen here but Paulina have blush around the empereor but she knows that empereor doesn't look at here in that way and, moreover, she has a dream as soldier to serve him. She is not against (In coming chapters she will think about having a family) just less interest.
I have to admit I would want to see an ace character because it can work with concept of family and relationship of an unusual point of view. Someone whose not disgusted of sex for trauma but because it just doesn't feel it is for him/her, a foreign in the chaos of most sex societies.
I can see easily why someone would call Paulina that xd but If Paulina was an ace I would want more selfawareness of her of liking being alone and be less enthusiastic for marriage, somthing it does not happen. Also, It will be very sad for ALL the POVs of Lucius being chaotical hetero (? for her. (=・ω・=)
awww, that was a cute ending. soulmates <3
