When you compare ArYa and SaMaya, a dialogue of Maya from S1 comes to mind- her mother asks whether Arjun loves her and she replies "how does it matter".

That's not too unlike what SaMaya- it doesn't matter what Maya feels about Samay.

The only difference between ArYa and SaMaya is Arjun (somewhat) reciprocating her love (out of a sense of nobility, dutifulness and lifestyle debt, whatever be the reason). If Arjun didn't claim to love her, ArYa wouldn't be too dissimilar to SaMaya. Maya would do whatever it took to make Arjun hers.

Of course SaMaya looks worse because the controller is a man here.

We've all complained about Maya's all knowing, all winning nature, so it does feel odd to see her on the back foot for a change.
