I’m sorry if this is a silly question but am unsure and want to be safe. My husband has celiac disease and I’ve seen that the King Arthur flour is super popular in the gluten-free community. My concern is the “Contains: Wheat” I thought wheat, along with rye, barley, etc was a no no for celiacs. So please help me understand, it’s a flour that seems to be the go-to for lots of recipes so I’d love to give it a try but am worried I’ll be getting him sick.

(I currently use Bobs Red Mill 1:1 Gluten Free Baking Flour and Namaste Perfect Four Blend Flour)

As the title states, Tamlin is the one who seduced Feyre under the mountain in, A Court of Thorns and Roses, not the other way around. Previously I've seen it be said that it was Feyre who seduced Tamlin in Chapter 42 (ACOTAR). Below are some textual facts that show it was Tamlin initiating it all.

Chapter 42 - Pg. 376 (Kindle Version): “*I went rigid when I smelled that rain and earthen scent, and didn't dare to turn to Tamlin." ... "*His fingers brushed mine." Here we have the beginning of their encounter, it is Tamlin who finds Feyre in the crowd, he makes his way to her to get her attention, touched her hand and then (canon text was not provided but) he walks off.

Pg. 377: “when he glanced over his shoulder and inclined his head ever so slightly that I understood." Here we have Tamlin beckoning Feyre to follow him.

She follows him through a door and then, “Darkness encompassed me. I saw only a flash of green and gold before the warmth of Tamlin's body slammed into me and our lips met." Once Tamlin gets Feyre alone in a dark and secluded room he wastes no time, quickly going in for a kiss.

Yes Feyre does say, "I couldn't kiss him deeply enough, couldn't hold him tightly enough..... Words weren't necessary". But NONE of this would of been happening without Tamlin leading the way. Of course Feyre is a willing participant, she loves the man!

Pg 378: "...he grasped my breast" ... "He tore his lips from mine and bit my neck" ... "Our tongues danced" ... "Tamlin growled his desire in my ear." This kiss has now lead to something steamy, Tamlin isn't worried about the world around them, his focus is on Feyre and touching her, kissing her. I will say again that yes, Feyre too is focused on this BUT, he was the one who brought them to this dark room, to talk? Doubt it. Canon shows its to get physical with Feyre. He could of stopped the kiss, didn't even have to initiate it, could of talked to Feyre, created a plan for her well-being to get out or end the trials but instead, he takes this opportunity to get sexual.

Before the two can get any further, Rhysand interrupts them.

Pg. 378: "Shameful," Rhysand purred... "Amarantha would be greatly aggrieved if she knew her little warrior was dallying with the human help," .... Ever so slowly, Tamlin removed my hands from his body and stepped out of my embrace. Thus ending their secret rendezvous.

All this canon text tells us how it was Tamlin who sought out Feyre, Tamlin who had her follow her into a dark room, Tamlin who initiated the kiss which escalated to almost sex. All Feyre did in this moment was reciprocate, sure she could have stopped the kiss to speak as well but she was a young human in this situation who trusted her lover. Her lover who put them in this room and used that time to make-out.
