well first off Lia is a concubine ,she's isn't married to the MC and probably never will so officially solange isn't his step-daughter at allComparing to Athagan isn't disingenuous at all. MC changes his relationship dynamic with women at the drop of a hat all the time. MC barely knows Solange's mother and has already effectively married her. And he always immediately starts thinking of the women as being his, there's no waiting, there's no "waiting" a period of time. There's practically jewelry placed on them before MC has finished cumming in them.
I'm not saying Solange is being treated badly, but the dynamic between her and MC needs to be improved. MC needs to start thinking of her as his. She's his daughter now. And bringing up that she's his stepdaughter is a pathetic defense. There is absolutely no good reason to mark that distinction. "For now", I can only hope means you plan of some formal adoption happening. Because I can't see anything else of worth for that. And even if she is to be formally adopted at some point in the future, that is no reason why terminology about her can't be changed both in MCs own thoughts and in how he speaks both to and about her in the present.
I'm not saying he has to be completely used to it immediately, but having him make mistakes and correcting himself even in his own thoughts would be a good step in the right direction.
And yes the "step" is a clear and valid distinction ,blood is blood especially in a feudal based society and in this avn it holds even more importance whit the addition of magic potential
now these distinctions matter little in a modern western society but the novel isn't based in such a place
still the MC treats solange like his step-daughter because off his character ,its often said in the novel that most men treat women quite badly so solange and Lia struck gold when in a moment off lust the MC took Lia and claimed her for himself as a concubine (whit her consent of course)
the MC has interacted about what? 3 times whit solange? its to early to form any real father daughter relationship currently hes still getting to know and understand her its to early to parent her they need to establish trust first then go from there
Which im sure off that it something vanderer had planned for already
your grievance is valid but also premature IMO
