Soiler
ML actually falls in love first. By the time he realises his feelings it was too late. MC was ready to leave him but ML kept chasing him. MC attempts to get a surgery done to remove ML's name from his back. ML begged him not to do it but MC did it anyway.
waittttt so what happens after he gets the surgery? do they get together?
I don’t know but since it's not tagged as "Tragedy", I'm assuming they're the endgame for each other.
yes, they do get together after a 2 year hiatus. After the MC removes Tristan's name, the two break up. The MC becomes a renowned pianist like he wished, while Tristan completely goes off grid like he originally wanted before the MC came crashing into his life. However, the MC later finds the ML again, and this time the two choose each other without the name imprint forcing them.
So did ML have an imprint or not?
Nope, never got an imprint at all. From beginning to end, only Eden had an imprint.
Can I have the link of the novel, please?
I don’t have it
I am so glad to come across this comment, it was so painful to watch MC’s desperation and pain both emotionally and physically. I was really wishing there would come a time where ML finds himself in a similar situation. This spoiler is such a breeze in the morning!
When you think from ML's POV, it's not really his fault though. He's not obligated to love or care for anyone. At least he took care of MC when he was found disabled and financially assisted him. ML isn’t really a bad person.
I totally vibe with that! It's not like ML's indifference towards MC was a byproduct of his actions. But it's still frustrating when MC has to go through all the suffering alone. It's almost satisfying when ML faces similar struggles, not because we want them to suffer, but because maybe, just maybe, they'll finally get it and understand what MC went through. It's like the story is giving ML a chance to walk a mile in MC's shoes.
If you go further back, I wrote the entirety of the novel spoiler.
Someone spill every. Single. Spoiler. To me
