1. Playing as a king of Poland.
2. King of Bulgaria abducts my daughter and makes her a concubine.
3. Invade Bulgaria (Tributary) and during siege capture and imprison my daughter.
4. Release my daughter from the dungeon, and she goes back to her captor, being a concubine.
5. I do have the option to free her from captivity with intrigue focus.

Where is the sense in this? Surely if I let her out, she shouldn't go back to being a concubine :D

Stocholm Syndrome...or love.
Whatever you call it.
Good meme material.

I agree.

I think the way abducted concubines work is really weird in general. Even if you just set them aside they'll stay in your court, by default.

Once I (pagan) took a Christian countess's daughter as a concubine. Later on I set her aside, and she stayed in my court. (To be fair she had some kids there, but she was a noblewoman back home!) Then a zealous vassal insisted that I banish her for being an infidel, and she got upset about that. So that's what I call Stockholm syndrome. (I wanted to make a crack about it being a literal case, but I think this was during the period where my capital was moved out of Uppland due to gavelkind shenanigans.)
