You’re missing the 'why' behind Juhyeok’s entire actions, and that’s the whole point people keep ignoring. He isn’t being "inconsiderate” just because he’s asking Su Ah for stability—he’s literally a product of years of NON-CONSENSUAL pheromone interference. He's became so dependent to Su Ah to the point where he can’t even take suppressants anymore without risking his stability—something he could’ve done ages ago if it weren’t for Su Ah forcing him into this situation. He's not doing any this shii for fun or just for his own 'selfish' convenience that everyone of y'all thinking, he's trying to survive in a body that's been HIJACKED by that very same Alpha's obsession that your gooning for. And yes, he’s awkward about it because of the imbalance, but that’s a natural response to trauma, not entitlement or cruelty. If you actually pay attention to the story, all the “weird” or “transactional” moments are Juhyeok trying to navigate a system that Su Ah literally built around him WITHOUT CONSENT . The problem isn’t the MC, it’s that some readers keep centering the Alpha’s comfort while erasing the very real consequences of Su Ah’s obsession, coercion, and boundary-crossing. Feel bad for Su Ah all you want, but don’t rewrite the narrative to make the Juhyeok the villain when he’s been surviving the fallout of someone else’s actions the whole da** time.

@Blvynx you know what, ur right. its definitely necessary to note that pheromone interference would fundamentally distort anyone person sense of agency. However, Juhyeok didn’t enter this situation as a blank slate. His entire family is an alpha. He's been exposed to alpha pheromones his entire life. That history matters. Framing Su Ah as the sole reason for his pheromone instability ignores a significant part of the narrative and feels like you're hyper-focused on one element rather than the story as a whole. BUT Su Ah's not in the green at all, his behavior is unacceptable and his obsession knows no bounds. With that being said, when I say he should go to another alpha for help. I genuinely mean that, like maybe confiding in his mom or an actual specialist that can render treatment and navigate him OUT of this dependency. Cause going to a person who desires you beyond reason obviously is not the move.
