last read ch8. ?? ml(?)(red hair) is a true tyrant who killed fl's parents in front of her. fl is set to kill ml but we havent seen any plotting, skills nor anything to back that up - only "i will kill you" lol. ml has a condition? curse? we dont know. and only fl (supposedly) will help him end the pain. he only thinks and treats her as his property lol. (but i think the author is trying to hint that he may be feeling more for her than he lets on with him 1) visiting a granny who's good w kids to get advice on how to win(?/please?) fl for ~7 years 2) listening to fl when she told him to not shed blood on her bday (which others found surprising) 3) he was possessive? /unnaturally(to himself) ticked off when blond dude got too close to fl (he aint said anything about that butler that she's real close and hugs tho). blondie is fishy. red is a jerk. (dont think he can be redeemed. he freaking killed all his previous queens just to 'threaten' fl's mum lol. and he even killed one just cos she coughed during dinner and it ruined his appetite lmao. lets watch the author try to explain that as ml was actually in harm and very troubled w these senseless killing.) fl isn't particularly likable nor is she dislikable. need more ch.
