I feel with both of them. The omega is simply too broken. One year is barely enough time to digest what happened much less to even start healing. And the alpha doesn't know about any of this and therefore acts the only loving way he knows which unfortunately is the exact way to make someone as broken as the omega to feel like he's being imprisoned and can't breath. Hell, even I felt like that while reading this! Out of fear of loosing the omega the alpha tries to get closer to him only to make him retreat more and more. Therefore this relationship is kinda toxic due to all the misunderstandings even though it would be a perfectly healthy relationship if both of them were healthy and tried to understand each other more (which is nearly impossible due to heavy past trauma) and not easy when someone has been ignorant of the partners circumstances all this time...
Hopefully things stay on a healthy course from ch 26 on
