The age gaps makes it a bit hard to swallow, but I can accept it in this novel.
(Slight spoilers)
Because 1. The emperor can see her souls form and kinda knows that she’s actually older than she looks like. So the one he fell in love with is really the image of her adult soul and not her child self.
2. No physical moments and ML hasn’t really fallen in love with her and is more like a person just experiencing the moment of love that he couldn’t before because of bein feared.
3. There is a reason why Ml needs her to be younger than fourteen and it’s not for any inappropriate reasons.
So although this is a marriage it’s more like a marriage on the surface and not a real marriage,
I love the MC but I hate the age gap its gross a grown man romanticizing a child is gross im glad she(the child) is setting boundaries. Ugh.
