### Summary
This chapter continues to pivot entirely to the secondary couple, alpha Matthew and omega Hayoung, solidifying Matthew’s audience perception as a possessive "yandere." The narrative centers on his escalating obsession, as he is shown investigating Hayoung’s past and a man named David Louis—presumed to be the ex who caused Hayoung's prior trauma—rather than communicating directly. This stalker-like behavior has sharply polarized the readership. A significant portion of the audience condemns him as a "walking red flag," citing his controlling nature and lack of trust as toxic and creepy. In stark contrast, another large faction romanticizes this behavior, finding his jealousy and obsessive tendencies "hot" and exciting. The commentary alludes to a recent intimate encounter, highlighting Hayoung's physical and emotional difficulties stemming from past experiences. While some readers note Matthew showed a degree of care during the act, the overarching dynamic remains fraught with tension and a fundamental lack of trust. This is compounded by apparent reader confusion over the non-consensual mark from the previous arc, with some comments questioning if it was permanent. Amid the debate, a growing sentiment expresses fatigue with this volatile pairing, with readers voicing a desire to return to the main couple.
