Oh, to be clear, I didn't mean any change in the overall progression - just a change in that specific scene. Something like "Please stay by my side", that plays out the same - just without explicitly saying that he loves her.

this is the first game I have played where there is near universal opinion the male MC/Hero needs to get pegged more

So, "I don't love you, but stary around because damn that body is 10/10. You think Alexia will be mad? Alexia might be mad. I think you'll have to let her fuck her too if that's the case, can't have the harem fighting ya know."
Well, at least that leading to a non-standard game over when Helanya killed Rowan would still avoid complicating the plot
...But I was thinking of it more like "I care deeply about you, and can't bear to have your death on my conscience. Please, please don't throw your life away by trying to escape while you're in this condition.". Followed by using her feelings for him, and the curse, to progress down the love route without having had to explicitly say that he loves her instead of Alexia. Since he still cares deeply for her, it shouldn't require any change to the rest of the events - especially when one considers how those emotions would probably grow more intense once they're actually together.
It still seems rather skeevy to me, but less so than saying he loves a woman he hasn't seen in years instead of the wife that he's loved since being a teenager.
(Though for the record, I've always seen Rowan having sex with Helayna as more of a "necessary action to keep her coherent", rather than a bonus. I mean, so long as he's sleeping with her, he can't even share his room with his wife; that doesn't seem a good trade to me.)
Ah, and just to reiterate, I do see this as being a personal issue surrounding the use of the term "love" in the event, rather than as a legitimate game issue, so I really won't have any complaints with the event staying as-is. It'd be selfish to expect that game to cater to me personally when there's so much work to be done.

That's evil, I like it, but I ain't the one writing Helayna, so that's how far my input on this topic goes

If it's a storytelling issue, then just kill her off and undead her whenever Rowan wants to beat that one more time. If it's a programming issue, backlog the bitch.
I feel exactly the same about this scene and the "love" thing, my Rowan want to save her and care about her, but he doesn't "love" her, its more like he "like" her, so an option to turn the sentence other than 'I love you' or an option to lie to her in order to keep her safe will actually be a plus from a rp point of view I think, even if it is indeed a detail in the end ^^Well, at least that leading to a non-standard game over when Helanya killed Rowan would still avoid complicating the plot

Just have fake choice.
1. "I love you."
2. "I love you." (Lie)
Both doing the exact same thing. Then again, the player could just add that lying bit to their own headcanon and not require any coding whatsoever.

Maybe I’m just making this up, but I think they’ve said there are plans to bring Helayna back after she escapes. Not sure in what capacity or in what way, but if it’s as a resident of the castle again, all of this trying to get her to stay without saying Rowan loves her might be moot.

It wouldn't be that simple. Manipulating Helayna into staying with you by pretending to love her shoulnd't be a thing that gets glossed over.
There are some ways to approach it that are feasible, but it's always a matter of workload vs benefit. For now, no further comments.
i hope in the future we get to go full dom mode, sort of like the CG which shows jezeera sucking our cock while sitting on the throne , all while heleyna is right next to us.
