### Summary
A devastating flashback to Giovinetta's first marriage reveals that a possessive Johannes murdered her new husband on their wedding day, a traumatic event she has since repressed. This act serves as a catalyst, blurring the lines between Johannes's own jealousy and the vengeful will of Idris, the ancient, tormented soul he has absorbed. The central conflict is now defined by this fractured identity, as Johannes projects Idris's unresolved trauma and obsessive history with the ancestor Giovinetta Ducommun onto the current Giovinetta, trapping her in a past that is not her own. Readers see him as a delusional abuser, whose desperate plea, "I want you to want me," encapsulates his need to control her by destroying any path to freedom that doesn't lead back to him. While sympathetic to the abuse Idris suffered from his father, Kretschmann, and Xavier Ducommun, fans lament how this cycle of tragedy now victimizes Giovinetta. She is forced to bear the weight of an ancestor's perceived sins, ensnared by a curse that has twisted Johannes into a prison of another man's memory.
