Still one of my best read ever. And from the comments, I just noticed the tidbit on special side story 15:
"As Hosik waited beneath the apricot tree,...
he couldn't help but weep at the sight of the young master...
..who came far too soon."
And now I'm crying again lol still skipping the part with the wife tho. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

He's a king and he can't even protect his lover? The power imbalance is not doing it for me this time.

Dude, I'm talking about how his lover is being hurt and beaten up right under his territory and how he does not even know it. I don't know about you but if my lover was a slave and he's working in an unfamiliar territory, I'd be worried and have someone at least check on him from time to time to make sure he's okay. He can't even do that?? He's a king and he's supposed to be smart so he should have some idea at least of what the uke is gonna encounter, right?
Obviously, I'm expecting too much lol
That asshole redhead went to jail at least. Guy deserves to rot in hell.
