Here's a excerpt from someone who read the novel.
ML was always in love with Daphne. He started the whole rebellion thing to make Daphne queen. Og plotline was
Daphne loves Romeo -> Romeo loves Psyche, so he doesn't love Daphne. -> Romeo leaves Daphne and makes Psyche crown princess -> Celestine tried to take Psyche away from Romeo for revenge (I think) -> and then take the throne through rebellion -> leave Psyche -> marry daphne -> all so Daphne can be queen
So imagine this guy waiting to die and miserable because his rebellion didn't succeed, and suddenly the adoration of his life and the catalyst of all of this casually just picks him up and essentially locks him in her room
Nahhh he actually loves Psyche (the OgFL) ?? NAHHHH I CANT READ THAT I actually thought there would be a plot twist where he doesnt love that other woman…
