Lol no, no way... I'm pretty sure she was older in that image (we can see the red collar of the clothing she was wearing when she was already older), and *besides* I'm pretty sure that wasn't even a real memory, but just a figment of her imagination. Because it makes NO sense for Sana not to know what the client and courtesan were doing in there, if she'd ever had sex, herself, before...
Well that makes alot of sense , but then again , living together for 20y and he didn't touch her one bit ? That's kinda unbelievable since he has shown to slept with other women before this , I was such a sucker for story with yendere ml before but this is so overwhelming lmao , he's basically grooming her, kidnaps her while she was only frickin 12 , kills everyone that she loves , tied her down....etc , wonder how this story gonna end up and her showing abnormal sign of not getting enough love from one person surprised me , I didn't think she'd develop such mindset
By the looks of the latest updated chapters... i'dt sees she slept with the fox some time *after* that courtesan told her "if you try hard, you can grow to love someone"... unless I'm mistaken? (...since I'm working too hard at convincing myself, because I don't want to think of Sana offering her body up to the fox... at such a young age?) Either way, I think I'll just go by the thought that she was older... since I think it's better not to think too much about it... (cause, ewwww)
I'm even more confused now after latest chapters , it seems Sana doesn't feel "love" by the fox , seeing how she tried to love him by forcing herself to after hearing from the courtsan, Meanwhile the fox seems to be aware more of the difference kind of love
When that maid said the king love her as a sister and he question that statement
I'm starting to think his love for her was just a curse since her after she was born her mother said sth like she'll be loved by everyone ?? Ahhh this is so confusing
I think the reason why Sana didn't feel "loved" by the fox is because she grew up as a princess, accustomed to being able to get almost anything she wanted, from the people who allegedly loved her, whereas the fox's "love" was clearly about *him* getting whatever he wanted from *her*. In other words, that Sana went from being a royal princess whose own voice was usually listened to and obeyed, to being a doll whose feelings and opinions were never sincerely taken into account, controlled and possessed by the fox, without any freedom. While any person would've resented being treated like a possession, and deprived of their freedom, it must have been a lot worse for a former royal princess, who'd probably been used to having people catering to her wishes, at least until that point... The difference must have been so drastic that it must have seemed unpalatable for her, so I'm not really surprised she ended up feeling like this.
As for that thing about the words from Sana's mother accidentally becoming like a curse, I think they definitely caused a lot of this, since it was those words that made the fox curious enough to stay in the apalace, hidden right beside little Sana, for an entire decade. I also thought it was weird that the fox acting surprised at the sibling love thing, so much that I almost thought he'd never known Sana actually had a brother. But, that's unlikely, given all the years he spent as Yuma, Sana's nursemaid... Though there's still a chance he was surprised because he didn't know the current emperor was the same as that one little brother of hers that he "forgot" to kill in the past... otherwise, I'm not sure.
Kudos to you dudeeee , u explain it very well and it's seems reasonable. Heck I think you're right about how she was receiving love from being a princess and the love Iza gives to her , I feel like my eyes have been open properly lol, tbh I binge this series late at night and u could say I speedread it so I miss alot of information
But we'll see how it turns out from here, I wonder if there's any chance for Sana to grow and started loving the fox back , I mean after all he's done to her I don't think it'll turn out like that but shorthair Sana is getting illogical, sleeping with her brother and all that. I feel like the fox would redeem himself somehow or maybe not at all , what even is this arc lmao
Oh yeah the bet , he was confident that she'll go back to him and I'm worried
Lmao the plot was kinda wacky wacky and there's a lot more to unfold it seems , I didn't want to get to this at first coz of the bright red theme yet I force myself to give it a try and it was worth it, tho it doesn't seem much popular by the look of the comments ? I'd love to read other's people discussion on this so it's nice that the guy above seems to understand the plot alot

Did the fox do it with her while she was ....12 ???? When she said his love for him isn't enough
