It's a bit iffy on how The King of Despair regards Mary. If he is possessing Black's body, perhaps he shares his feelings and memories (maybe, and if so, I don't know to what degree). If that's so, then it would make sense why he refers to White as 'his' sister rather than 'Black's' sister, as he probably thinks of himself as a part of Black rather than a separate entity. Considering that, he could have a sibling love for White.

But, it is shown in the anime that he is very different from Black with their personalities. After all, the two are different beings. And he has different views and feelings. So there's a possibility he regards White differently from Black too. It's shown already in the anime he thinks (or uses her like a tool) but we don't know if there's anything more deeper than just that excuse everything is too vague. Maybe, he took on Black's feelings and grew a'fondness' for her or grew to love her on his own accord and thus loves White romantically.

Near the end of the episode 11 when King of Despair said he loved White, it should be noted how he said it in Japanese. He says 'aishite dayo' and it comes off as a very strong meaning for love. I'm no Japanese expert but it sounds very close to 'aishiteru' and perhaps is (but since she's 'dead' he used a different verb). This saying is reserved for very serious romantic relationships. If you sonsider that, it's a major hint(?) of how Despair feels for Mary. To me, it sounded and felt that he loves her romantically.

But then, if take account of the siblings relationship between William and Mary it's hard to tell. They both regard each other as 'their whole world' (from the preview at the end of the recap episode). For a sibling relationship, Mary's and William's is very deep. It's not the usual sibling relationship. And perhaps that form of love Desapir said showed how strong that sibling relationship is. -And wow I wrote more than I expected. Do take this with a grain of salt. What I'm tossing here is theories and a bunch of possibilities. It would be nice if the anime clarified his feelings since The King if Despair is a total enigma, but I don't think it will be considering that there's only 1 more episode left-
