I just dont get how naive she can get. She knows the story! She knows the dynamics of their family. What a classic way of showing denial.

I agree. She knows the original story so it shouldn’t really come as a surprise to her. But the thing about these ‘reincarnated characters in novels’ are trying so hard to change the story that they forget it’s actually their reality.
I personally like the story for the fluff and soft character development. So I feel like I cannot hate the FL or find her annoying in this. I do hope that she doesn’t go into denial and accepts them for who they are. they’ve changed so much because of her. But I have a feeling that she’s going to blame Cassius for teaching Ain these kind of things behind her back.

I think making their chosen ones be an immortal is the way of that worlds rewards the sacred beast for their service and sacrifices. To prevent the sacred beast loneliness and solitude during their long lifelines. And since the previous azure dragon neglected its duty then it is right to remove such privilege. It is not murder if someone died because their lifeline has ran out. Therefore Kotone shouldn't feel guilty.

From what I read the alpha did say that their son was fussy all night long coz he was away from his mommy. Suggesting that Woo Joo has been his primary care giver before the night out. A little bit of self fun after giving birth is very important for mental health of a new mother. Being able to unwind is a good. So chill and stop being a judgmental mom people.
The MCs psychological trauma is worst, I think, because he loved the emperor in his previous life. The pain is quadrupled.
