Love Triangle

So I am thinking I want to introduce a love triangle into the story. I was debating on how to do this. I thought it would be interesting if Jael gets kidnapped once they get to Rekjavik. They take her to the king and to prison. He knows about her powers and keeps her blindfolded and chained at all times. She is kept prisoner and while there meets another prisoner who rebelled against the king. They fall for each other based on personality and through the trials they go through together in prison. They break out together. He has never seen her eyes. They have never connected because she has remained blinded through their entire experience. They fall in love. When she sees Dresden again she is torn. Her love for him is generated by their mutual Crulian connection. Her draw to him is almost outside of her control. He already loves her and has been fighting to get her back, which only cements his love for her. Once they meet again she cannot deny the sheer physical draw to him. Hence the love triangle. She doesnt know she loves the new guy until after the imprisonment. She thinks she is in love with Dresden. She thinks about him constantly while in prison, longs to see him. She doesnt realize she is falling for the new guy. Once she sees Dresden again she runs into his arms. The connection is still there, but then she realizes that she loves the new guy too. He knows about Dresden but didnt mean to fall in love with Jael. He knows he is not royalty. He has no claim to her... but he loves her. She is torn...

Pros and cons for each guy:

Dresden- History (little), Physical connection, both Crulian, best friends now with Jayden, Prince, Jael uses the memory of him to keep things together when in prison which solidifies her love for him.

New guy- love based on shared experiences, personality chemistry, natural chemistry, hes funny and easy going while Dresden is formal and serious (opposites), he falls for her without really understanding her powers, loves her for her true self.

Now for a name...
