The ml was r*ped. He have a phobia and trauma because of a woman aka his first wife. His first wife drugged and r*pe him.
It’s not easy to just forget the trauma you have. And the people that says “who cares if he have a trauma” is absolutely disgusting. I’m curious if you would be the same way if it was a woman with a trauma. Male victims matters just as much as female victims.
R*pe victims have a hard time getting emotionally close to the child/children of their attacker. If you was never r*ped/drugged then you don’t understand the pain that he going through. The ml have a PHOBIA of women. He can’t even handle touching let alone dance with any woman. He have his reasons for being cold to the fl and his child. He never had a chance to heal and he was 15. He was ill throughout his childhood. His father died when he was 14 and all his mother care about while he was sick was that he won’t die so that way she won’t lose her only bloodline to succeed the throne. He had to shoulder the responsibility of the kingdom while suffering from his trauma and phobia. He couldn’t even take a break after his first wife death as he was pressured into getting remarried.
Absolutely disgusting how most of you people know his trauma but still are dicks to him. Make me lose the little faith i had in humanity.

He also grew up in a family that never bother to spend time with him or give him the love that a child needs from their parents that’s mainly the reason why he doesn’t get close with Blanche cause he literally never had the love from his parents so he doesn’t even know that he has to do that he thinks that families are like that

I used to be religious too, and I used to pray everyday for things to change for the better. But idk when or why, I start to feel like God isn't listening at all. Perhaps there isn't any God too. So I guess, like Eatah said, it's just happened naturally when you have your hope crushed over and over again as you pray and expect things to change.

I love this. This FL is very much like Medea, with her all-so-powerful strategies. That new girl, Julia(?), I'm getting a weird vibes. Like she'll do something stupid and get punished by Rezek and the FL will save her or smth.
Oh, and I think yall is hating on the brother, Rezek, for nothing. Imagine being told all your life that you are more worthless than the pebble on the street and the only way for you to ever by something, is for you to be acknowledged. That's harsh, even for a teen. But the Prince had these things said to him when he's a kid, not even a teen.
I'm not excusing his past mistakes, but know that he is the way he is bc of the lack of affection. I mean, look at us all. Aren't we the way we is bc of family problems?? Who are we with our depressing, adhd, trust issues, daddy/mommy issues, or even anxiety ass to determine that the brother is an assholes or not.
Give him a chance, he's just and still a kid. Give him a break..
The root problem here is not the ML, nor the FL. It's the damned in-laws and the Princess's brother. These greedy fucks need to calm the fuck down cause istg if Winter knows about how badly they treat our Princess, I'm sure he'd beat the crap out of them.
And for the main couple?
Those two just need a serious communication therapy. The FL kept too much from him, and the ML has an inferior issue that is blocking his mind from actually showing love for the princess.
Actually, no, the princess is a victim from beginning to end.
Its understandable; how Winter works so hard even on their wedding day just for the Princess's comfort. His action is just how most parents are. Working everyday to their bones just so that their child could get a better education and a roof over their head.
And you guys are forgetting something—
Winter Blooming is not from a noble background. His mother is a low-born and he's captured, beaten, and abused since he's a child. Even got captured by a witch(?) as a hostage. Damn, even I would have anger issues, inferiority issues and have communication issues.
Look at yourself— some of us have toxic parents and look what we've become? We're also having some issues in some ways. Daddy, mommy, inferiority, superiority, trust issues, and some even have hero complex that love villains only.
There's a saying that "One's love language comes from what what they lack in their childhood." And winter lacks money, love and title.
That's why he worked so hard to gain MORE and MORE money for the princess. Because he thinks that the Princess will be embarrassed since she lost her title as well as money from the marriage. And that is the only form of love he knows.
Yes, I cried reading every single page. In a way I understand that the princess is desperate to die, but I just want you guys to see clearly who to blame, who's at fault, and most important of all— WHO IS THE ONE THAT IS CREATING ALL THESE PROBLEMS.
Yall blamed the wrong man.
I second this
I didn't hate him at all from the beginning. It did hurt to see the comment section of this story so I stopped reading that too. And only now I'm back cuz the comments seem a bit better now.
