It was now the first month of your marriage, you were getting along with him even though he wasn't that good, he was affectionate towards you but he was also cold, he forbade you to leave the castle after he found out you were pregnant, he never wanted anything to happen to you, you and the son in your womb.

“Look, you are carrying my child in your womb, I want to be good to you, you are in your sensitive period, but don't make things difficult, forget to get out of this castle.”
