if anyone says "oh but if he's evading, j wait for him to open up" girl & did you read the previous chapters for what happened when ash waited? lyle is not only traumatised but also stubborn as hell man, it's v clear throughout the story. like y'all have to deal with a Fr stubborn bitch & you'll get it. sometimes waiting around with these people damages both of you more & sometimes they j want a push out of you that'll make them say it. ash didn't know if it was smth he could afford waiting on, especially considering their recent fight
Love Lyle but it's a recurring trope in alpha x alpha manhuas to belittle/degrade omegas, and this one isn't an exception. Any time a secondary character or extra is an omega they make them some thirsty bitch in heat with no personality.
However, I think it does make sense given Lyle's character. He's been brought up in an environment in which being an alpha was his only role. And in earlier chapters you can see how taxing that was for him mentally. Now he's in a relationship were he has to take the "omega" position. The type of conditioning he was brought up with won't go away after two years of dating. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
yeah, exactly. like i get it, which is why i still love lyle, but i still hate this whole thing going on, y'know? like give omegas a break PLEASE
if you're calling this rape, did you even bother finishing the chapter? good lord. & some of y'all are really trying to twist & reach atp. there are better ways this could've panned out & they could've communicated properly - but it's clear they still have a lot to work on. & no, it's not only ash because quite frankly, i feel like ash ended up on the sexual route because of lyle's consistent & persistent history of evading qs. ash looked uncomfortable himself & he also immediately stopped once it was clear lyle REALLY looked uncomfortable. we're reading this from lyle's pov, so of course we'll "understand" (quotations because many of you seem to NOT understand lyle AT ALL) him more but ash has went through a lot himself with this relationship. to prove himself every single time lyle j evades everything, to slowly coax & teach lyle about sex outside of obligations, having to be firm in front of lyle's grandfather & his brother, asking for help from a man he's refused to see for decades, etc. y'all wanting to degrade him into a disgusting rapist is suuuch a reach
with that being said, a lil' thing about lyle: i actually fucking HATE how he talks about omegas. icb i've never seen anyone say this & maybe it's because everyone gives him grace because he's traumatised & presents himself as innocent & naive, so y'all coddle him. but his omegaphobia pisses me OFF. every single time he says it's humiliating/embarrassing to do things that omegas do/have done to them - like??? i GET it okay - that he's traumatised, but he cares so much for his younger brother, a dominant alpha, & understands & dislikes the prejudice that affects him, yet he turns around & does the same to omegas? ntm when he's the one fucking omegas to make babies out of responsibility - it j makes everything icky. like i get there's an objectification of both himself & the omega as baby making machines, but with how he feels everything akin to an omega is humiliating - ughhh. i love lyle & i get it, but this one thing j leaves a bad taste in my mouth & i wish he stopped mentioning it but i know he won't because mf's got a humiliation kink
