Ok I know the ML is brainwashed, whatever, but he still pisses me off. He's so emotionless it's fustrating ...The brother is misogynistic. Like, bro, you need to hold your father accountable for bringing another female, not you sister. Ayla she's not perfect, but she's not evil. Thalia needs to control her emotions. I liked the dark-haired knight; he's better than the ML .She better smart out and start treating him as an ally instead of acting childish.
Advising her to use her body to survive part is understandable given the situation. What isn’t understandable is the “make him fall in love with you” bad advice. Since we know rapists and abusers don’t actually love their victims, instead they keep torturing them physically and mentally; the least they deserve is being killed or worse. And the audacity of blaming her for becoming a rapist typical rapist excuse.
Moral of the story forgive your rapist and make him love you
