Ahhh I’m So Glad I Edited The Main Post. Now It Looks Much Cleaner! :)

Does the King only falls in love with MC after the imprisonment or could he have been in love with them before?

Idk I feel like he's the kind of guy that'd definitely lock up the person he likes. Something like "Well, at least no one can steal you from me now". The joke would be on him tho, the demon did steal MC away lol

Anyway, loved the demo. Really liked that the chains also sustained MC, really interesting. Can't wait to see what comes next!

Looks like Aurelian's going to follow your advice to the letter ;)

and I've outlined some scenes where that might happen. You know anon you gave me an idea with the SC snagging MC. Now I want to write how will Aurelian react to that lol.

Regarding Aurelian romance path, you can choose whether you were past lovers or he develops feelings for MC later on.

Thanks for the feedback, by the way! I'm over the moon that you enjoyed it. <3

Omg CONGRATS ON YOUR MARRIAGE!

🔥🕺✨️You free from maidenless(gn) behavior✨️🕺🔥

Thank you!! I’m still in disbelief lol

Can you name who’s red flag and why? I’m so sorry if you already did

No worries! 💗 I don't think I mentioned the reasons why they're red flags. So, the two red flags are Aurelian and Soul Collector.

Aurelian

Aurelian is very possessive and controlling when it comes to things he considers "his." Some of this behavior stems from his upbringing. 🤔 He is the one who betrayed MC and imprisoned them, due to his selfishness or other reasons. His behavior raises many questions. However, when you delve deeper into his story, you'll find that he does tone it down for MC.

Soul Collector

They literally want MC's soul. What more can I say? 🤭 Not only that, but they are very protective, almost possessive, of MC. You might argue it's solely because they want MC's soul, but is there more to it than meets the eye? They're also decisive and tricky; it's hard to tell if they're being truthful or if it's just another trick for their own plans.
