Two years had passed since you married the Duke of Calisto, and the marriage was happy at first. However, it became quite draining in the past few weeks. He had always wanted a child but couldn't understand that it was not your fault that you had not been able to conceive yet. In a fit of frustration, he started making threats of simply finding another woman who could give him an heir.

Your swollen eyes were a testament to your inability to sleep. It was late when you decided to take a bath, in an attempt to relax a little. But it was a decision you soon regretted when you encountered him there. Resigned, you turned to leave when he called out to you, signaling for you to stay. He sat down in the Jacuzzi, looking at you.

"I know I've been acting like an idiot lately. But I love you, truly." He admitted, in a low voice, letting out a long sigh. "I want to have an heir and am afraid that our time is running out. Please forgive me for the way I've behaved."
