I’ve heard a lot of good and bad things about The Captive Prince trilogy – which has me wanting to read it even more to find out what all the hub-bub is all about and draw my own conclusions. Is there a novel that you’ve read solely because it created controversy? I’m loving the dark nature vibes of this pic, despite the series being a queer Edwardian fantasy.

Laurent’s vocabulary [in Akielon] hit its limits when it came to military terms and manoeuvres, but Damen filled in the gaps. It was of course no surprise to find that Laurent had a well-stocked armoury of elegant phrases and bitchy remarks, but could not talk in detail about anything sensible.

“Are you going to complain again that you’re not allowed to hit back?’ said Laurent. The voice sweetened further. ‘Don’t worry, I won’t hit you unless I have a good reason.’ ‘Did I seem worried?’ said Damen.”
LMAO bro really said im not scared of you

Regarding Damen's innocence/ignorance:
We know that C.S. Pacat felt that Damen shouldn't have discovered why Laurent was so reserved about sex and so tense at the prospect, but taking a different approach, I would like to interpret the character, the way he thinks, because it's really frustrating to watch Damen not reach this conclusion after being informed that the Regent was a pedophile, and that Laurent had been alone - both in terms of family/friends, and other companions - all this time, with the Regent being his only guardian.
In my view, throughout Damen's perception of Laurent, the idea that the Prince of Vere was untouchable was consolidated, and I'm not just talking about the fact that Laurent doesn't lie with anyone, I'm actually talking about Laurent being someone inaccessible, extremely difficult to captivate or even defeat, and this in the eyes of anyone, even the most loyal men to the prince.
Damen truly believes that Laurent, being in the position of heir, and also being so astute and a remarkable warrior (the scene with the assassins in the room and many others show this to him clearly), and overly self-sufficient, is unattainable even to the Regent. That's his interpretation of Laurent. Therefore, when he sees him hesitate so much in the face of sex, it's more likely that he thinks all the tension stems, in truth, from the fact that Laurent struggles to let someone connect with him so intimately, so accustomed he is to solitude, and not some abuse, because Laurent is practically unscathed to him.
Sobre a inocência/ignorância de Damen em relação ao abuso de Laurent
Sabemos que C.S. Pacat sentiu que Damen não deveria ter descoberto o porquê de Laurent ser tão reservado em relação ao sexo e estar tão tenso na iminência do ato, mas indo por uma linha diferente, eu gostaria de interpretar o personagem, a forma como ele pensa, porque é realmente custoso assistir a Damen não chegar a essa conclusão depois de estar em posse da informação de que o Regente era pedófilo, e que Laurent esteve sozinho – tanto em relação à família/amigos, quanto outras companhias – todo esse tempo, sendo que o Regente era seu único tutor.
A meu ver, ao longo da construção da visão de Damen sobre Laurent, foi consolidada a ideia de que o príncipe de Vere era alguém intocável, e estou falando para além do fato de Laurent não se deitar com ninguém, estou falando, na verdade, de que Laurent era alguém inacessível, extremamente difícil de cativar ou ainda, derrotar, e isso aos olhos de qualquer um, até mesmo dos homens mais leais ao príncipe.
Damen realmente pensa que Laurent, estando na posição de herdeiro, e também por ser tão astuto e um guerreiro notável (cena dos assassinos no quarto e tantas outras mostram isso a ele de forma clara), e em demasia autossuficiente, é inatingível mesmo para o Regente. Essa é a interpretação dele sobre Laurent. Logo, quando ele o vê hesitar tanto diante do sexo, é mais certo que ele pense que toda a tensão é fruto, a bem da verdade, do fato de que Laurent tem dificuldade em deixar alguém se conectar a ele de forma tão íntima – tão acostumado ele está à solidão, e não algum abuso, porque Laurent é praticamente incólume para ele.

damen to the regent in kingsmeet
‘I’m going to kill you.’
‘The moment you laid your hands on him, you were dead.’
‘I will be the last thing that you see. You will go to the ground with my blade in your flesh.’
