I’ve read this twice to try gain a different perspective Whats the time skip between the main story and side stories? Because they do nothing to make hyusung endearing, he’s still the same.
If it wasn’t for the bond and their child I truly do think he would run a mile in the other direction. I just don’t think he loves or even cares about the alpha. His just resigned himself to his fate.
Their relationship is still push and pull.
Should’ve just given us sides of Byul would’ve been more interesting.

IKR! I felt the exact same way! At no point throughout the story I ever felt his growth or attachment towards the alpha... It genuinely felt like he was forcing himself to stay with him . Everything was so one-sided till the very end and the uke remained the same. After a while i couldn't give a shit about their romance because to me it was non-existent.
I stuck around for hesoo and dojun because they had a wayy better story line and development compared to the main couple. I wish they had a series of their own but instead the author made a even shittier story about the sister...
Byul was so cute too. Would've loved to see more of him (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜

Bruh how can he sit in a room full of people and only say two things? And those were only to answer two questions. Not even a hello to his bf?
Has the author ever explained why he doesn’t speak, have any type of facial expressions, inner monologue? Heck even body language anything that communicates thoughts or feelings? Other than complete silence.

There is another short story that came out in November last year recently translated which is exactly like this one.
It’s called bridle the exact same premise only it’s the uke that got bullied or hurt by the seme and he kidnaps the seme and starts raping him for revenge.
Im laughing because I can’t believe two authors would just write the same story.
Most New BL coming out is just blending into one all the same.
This is angst for the sake of it.. the team leader spent all that time being nice, flirting and basically courting the bottom now all of a sudden his being sketchy they are together? And the random third wheel appearing out of nowhere…. Ffs not every story needs drama or angst.
Dropping for now.
