i just started reading this and they keep bringing up how she’s a child bride the plot will get really good and i’ll forget about it but then it always go back to how she was a “young girl” and he was an “old man”; idk if i can get past it like they literally showed their wedding day and she looks like she’s 8 and he looks 20
i caught up and im just thinking about the rabbit scene again where michel missed shooting the rabbit in the head and ain(who we all know is fuckass ian) goes on about how michel could just raise it back to health, nurture it, and how he would have a pet. whereas michel finds this pitiful to have put the rabbit in the position in the first place, and kills it.
all this to say, ain/ian (in my opinion at this point in the story) sees michel as the rabbit; injured (a fallen noble with nowhere to run) prey, and wants to keep him as his pet (guess that’s why its called the taming lmao), like he didn’t even want michel to go outside during the month he was in villa. i wonder how the story is going to play out from this point
