A comment had a question on why people seem to hate kloff more than aeroc, and I wrote this in response, but a lot of people seem to hold the same sentiment so I’ll just post it here for others to see. This is why people like aeroc more than kloff.
People hate Kloff more than Aeroc because Aeroc acknowledges the wrong he committed. In desperation, he sent people to intimidate Raphael, trying to SCARE him away, where they then raped and killed Raphael. Aeroc never sent them to beat him up; however, Aeroc knows that it was his actions that caused Raphael to be killed, regardless, and he lives with that guilt for the rest of his life. So when Kloff subjects him to horrific abuse (rape, torture, starvation, forced pregnancy, even confining him to a shed) Aeroc never resists or speaks out. He accepts it all as the punishment he believes he deserves. THIS IS WHY PEOPLE CONTINUE TO LIKE AEROC.
If Kloff had only tortured and killed Aeroc, most people would have accepted it as vengeance, after all, Aeroc played a role in the death of Kloff’s wife and unborn child. But that isn’t what happened. And this is important to understand clearly: Kloff did not rape, torture, and force a pregnancy on Aeroc because of Raphael. He never loved Raphael. And if anyone tries to frame rape as a gesture of love or mourning, that in itself is disgusting. Kloff’s violence was intentional, rooted not in heartbreak, but in power, control, and resentment for Aeroc being an alpha. He didn’t act out of pain; he acted out of desire, entitlement, and the satisfaction of finally dominating Aeroc without consequence and treating him like an omega.
Kloff did what he did because Aeroc wasn’t an omega, and now he finally had the opportunity to make him one. Every act was deliberate, calculated, and intentionally cruel. He wasn’t spiraling or unstable, he was in control. The only point where his sanity could be questioned is after Aeroc’s death, not before.
