Guys someone spoiled this for me WAYYY back and since I can't bring my self to enjoy it ni...

omg please spill

I did read some spoilers lmaoo

It ws like michel's father raped ain and that he's getting revenge by taking michel's innocence as how michel's father took ain's, and that ain is the real duke too, I mean that was an obvious part but stilllll. I forgot the ending but I think it wasn't a happy one??

It's not a happy ending.. maybe they changed it

Also I'm surprised if that's the case because he's not made Michel bottom

wait were the uke and seme roles switched? was the novel the opposite

I think it can be a complex thing, he may want revenge but not want to put himself in the same position as his rapist yk? Like I'm not sure how to explain it well...

Wait then how was the ending?

This is heavy spoilers from a discussion I have red somewhere


Ain/ian ended up falling for mc? But like in a parent way or sum cuz when mc was born, ian was getting raped by mc's father nd the thought of that made him think mc is his kid or sum because of what happened to him turns out ian was a sex slave whom mc's father purchased cuz mc's mother was pregnant with him nd his dad can't crack his mom so he purchased ian instead. Ian sought out revenge by marrying michel and ruining his family, basically it's just ian getting revenge on michel's family because of what the father did to him, it was also stated that ian was suicidal cuz he wanted michel to kill him if he ever finds out the truth

OKAY I FOUND THE SPOILERS(This is just a copy paste)

Idk if at the end of the story he ends up loving him but surely for the most part he felt hatred (bc he was the son of his rapist) + some kind of distorted affection since he saw him as 'his' son. At some point he starts liking the way mc genuinely loves him and wishes it could always be that way, but he also knows mc will hate him when he will find out he planned to destroy his family and married him as a final revenge. In a way (or at least it's what it lookied like to me) he is suicidal bc he secretly hopes for mc to kill him once he'll know everything, bc he sees his life as tragic (which is true) and dying by mc's hand it's like karma

And this(copy paste again)

Ian was sold when he was just a kid, sadly northern kids were often sold as slaves and prostitutes to southerner nobles.

A bit of context : the north is very liberal about sexual relationship but once you're married you're basically loyal to your spouse for the rest of your life, no cheating is allowed. The south instead, has a strong concept of chastity and premarital relationship are forbidden (for both men and women) though many actually have sexual relationship in secret while preaching chastity and even after marriage it's kind of normal to have mistresses.

The one who bought ian as a slave was mc's father, who is a pervert pig bast4rd *insert all the existent insults bc he really is a monster*. He had him serve as his sex slave bc his wife was currently pregnant with mc and couldn't do anything with her:sick:
One night ian was sick with a high fever but mc's father still went to his room and raped him. Right when it was over, a servant called for him to go to his wife bc she went into labor and it was in that moment ian thought of taking revenge and how : he would destroy mc's family and take the newborn baby, since he was born while he was being raped he saw him as 'his own' baby.

huhhhhh i don’t think i like it…..

thanks tho!
