Excuse me Arkana he is not suspecting her, he is making an astute observation that his girlfriend is acting out of character. Which she is, the girl got caught and poisoned like whats your deal
Additionally, Siri definitely should have Veramud that she got caught, in fact she needs to tell her whole team that they have been compromised.
This way they can be prepared, and find a way to make the king trust her. Be it by serving some mild information etc, because what I don’t (and is stupid) is for them to later find out because when they do and question her loyalty they will be justified. After all, they are on the same team so why wouldn’t she tell them she got caught and is being threatened via her friends?
I would question you too because why didn’t you trust us when we were all trusting each other enough to conspire against a whole king? And in a situation like that you cannot blame the people who lose trust/doubt you because you did an untrustworthy or questionable thing.
She is missing out on an opportunity to recruit her friends and give everyone foreknowledge. I don’t like writing where you make someone a victim or more likeable by making another person less likeable in a character development regression instead if progression manner. He trusts her, if she does this and he doubts it’ll become “if you questioned me you never knew me” when the person is justified to question because of your dangerous secrecy.
It better not go in that direction
Why is he saying he has a bad personality or that he deceived him? What conditional interest is it that he likes his kindness only when it's to him, , sir, it's because he is a kind person that he could smile and be friendly with you. If he was a cold person you wouldn't have felt so close. Why is that a problem now? That's who he is.
Isn't he evidence that not all alphas are like your family?
He was your teacher why should he come to discuss designations with you?
Anyways. I've ranted. Let me move on.
