MC should have stuck to his guns and just said no.
ML walks up and says, "I'll give you money to marry me and we can never divorce." And your response is, "Sure, just don't cheat on me for a year?" And he comes back with, "three days."
Fuck no.
I don't care if you had a crush on him ages ago, tell him to fuck off.
And when he sends his lawyers to persuede you, threaten to tell the press that some rich toff is trying to press you into a same sex marriage to get his family's money and won't take no for an answer.
And if he comes back, do it.
Let them have a field day. You got nothing to lose anyways. You're a nobody. Media will focus on you for .5 seconds while he'll forever be the guy who had a big scandal trying to get a male bride he doesn't even like.

Is no one gonna talk about the reversed marking dynamic?
Usually its the omega who gets marked and then can't have any other partners.
Here it seems omegas can get marked multiple times by multiple partners.
Which makes more sense if omegas are supposed to be baby making machines to be honest. Like cats, having many partners means you have more sperm to make more babies with.
Alphas being marked once and forever doesn't really make sense though. Again you probably want as many partners as possible for greatest chance of baby making success.
But I supposed the romance of ABO is all about the "unbreakable bond" of marking, so somebody has to take on that responsibility.
What do you guys think?

My take:
Rawin does love Chess and he's willing to be with Chess for the rest of Chess' life, fufilling the werewolf's "one true love" thing.
The thing is, he's been through this before, being in love, possibly with some other mortal that has also died before him.
So when Chess does die from old age, he will remember him forever as a past love and eventually find another lover. Just like he found Chess. Because he's a vampire and he has and will live for a very veeery long time, and he doesn't get to have "one love forever". Unless it's another vampire, they will always go before him.
Well that was terrible....
Let me just rape, and stalk you, and turn everyone against you until you agree to be mine. But it's ok, cause our magical destiny means you actually wanted me all along.... deep down.
Bleeeeeergh.
Fuck that mess with a spoon. (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸
Thank you! I could not have said it better.
This is freaking Stockholm syndrome at its finest.
