Tbh, I don't think he "loves her loves her" maybe somewhere towards the end he might let her know that he does though? She totally started out as a tool but somewhere along the line he went "well, I don't want her to be stolen from me, she's mine" kind of chara personality..

I think it's also because he doesn't know what love really is, only knowing how to use his looks and status to get everything he wants in life and making sure to keep everything, including the emperor, who's basically grown up with a combination of his efforts to make her better and her foreign education.

As a very picky reader, I shall recommend stories that grab my attention and captivated my heart and soulll!

Who Made Me A Princess 

Summary:

Will she go with Plan A, live as quietly as possible without being noticed by the infamous emperor? Plan B, collect enough money to escape the palace? Or will she be stuck with Plan C, sweet-talking her way into her father’s good graces?!

My favourite character from The Flower That Was Bloomed By A Cloud

Just seeing him makes me feel sad. Sure, he is kind of twisted but he doesn't actually hide it. He knows what he wants and makes sure he gets it.

But does he not seem a bit lonely?

That is why, just looking at him makes my heart throb. I wish for him to smile for real and laugh.

Does he love her? I feel like he has always cared for her.

He is someone who we have to idea what's going on inside his head but that's the reason why he is my favourite character. We do not need to know what's going on inside a person head to understand them. Their actions are enough. And from what I've seen, I have nothing against his rational logical way of doing things....
