I actually like the story despite the lots of s-scene. I also get it that some people find it not that good, since all of us have different preferences. I read the comments, some say Hyo-un seems to willingly forget his mate just because the modern taehyuk showed up, but honestly if we're really gonna look into it, in their first scene, hyo-un wasn't in his usual self, and just came back from slumber, I really don't get the why he had S- with taehyuk.
For me, he doesn't seem to be willingly forget his mate, considering the cold-shoulder he gave to taehyuk when taehyuk first moved in. He just grew accustomed to taehyuk talking to him when taehyuk suddenly avoided him, so Hyo-un felt weird and doesn't seem to know what kind of feeling that is.
╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ I just gave my thoughts,, since I really liked the story. Also liked the part where his older brother really reflected from his mistake.
I also think it was his subconscious making him unable to kick taehyun out bc he was hoping that he WAS his mate despite his deep distrust of humans. It wasn't that he was trying to forget his mate bc of modern taehyun, but he couldn't even remember WHY he was so desperate to begin with, he suppressed his memories to cope with the yearning











okay I'll marinate this,,, I hope iz worth it
