Chap 6 shows that the Duke finally understands why it is Alois that makes him happy...He understands that Alois is the brightness that he needed in his life...
His love for Alois is true and that is why he let's Alois meet other people and thinks of letting him go and that he will soon forget about the duke...Love between two strangers doesn't have to always be sexual...The Duke's love was true that's why he gave Alois every form of love he could....You can love someone a lot but still push them away if they are not of the right age...
It was so good till that- can we just pretend chap 6 didn't exist?
