I'm so tired of women in harems being made out to be so spiteful and everyone ignoring the fact that the emperor/sultan or whatever is seen with no fault in the jealousy/envy he causes
in this case tho i don't think the sultan caused jealousy on purpose like you made it sound. he's yandere asf, and I think the concubines were all brought in by the court officials. this is how things are supposed to be. obviously, in modern day, monogamy is a thing– but that's not the case in a historical setting. especially not the emperor, who rules over an empire.
I would just like to say. He ate her out, wiped his fingers (3, might I mention) and only after that did he finger her. I'm so done. What a man.
