Violet went back to the pack house and went to his bedroom. When she stepped inside, she was not surprised that the lights were off, but thanks to the moonlight shining through the mirror, she could make out his figure lying on the bed.
Violet walked closer, and his features became even more visible to her. With his eyes closed, she took it as an opportunity to study his features because whenever they would have sex in her room, he would leave immediately after the act was done, so seeing him this way was a rare opportunity for her.
Her eyes moved from his firm chest to his broad shoulders and then to his face. To say Sebastian was handsome was an understatement; in fact, to Violet, his features were beyond perfect, so anyone who saw him would conclude that indeed he was created on a great day.
This man was hers and will forever belong to her. She won't let anyone take her position as Luna, and that is why she must make this sacrifice. Her gaze moved to his lips, and the desire to have them against hers made her lean towards him, but before they could touch his, she heard his voice.
"What are you doing?"
Violet opened her eyes to see Sebastian coldly staring at her. She quickly moved back and tried to explain her actions. "I... uh... I..."
"Didn't I tell you not to ever enter my room without my permission? Why are you here?" Sebastian asked calmly, getting up from his bed. He walked directly to his wardrobe and brought out a black shirt.
After putting it on, he turned his attention back to Violet and asked again. "Why are you in my room, Violet?"
Violet cleared her throat and replied, "I need to discuss something with you."
"You have fifteen minutes."
Hearing she had only fifteen minutes to talk to her husband, Violet furrowed her brow and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you treat me this way?"
Sebastian sat down in one of the pieces of furniture in his room and replied, "In what way do I treat you?"
"We are husband and wife, and yet, you only sleep with me during my fertile period. I claim to be this pack's Luna, but yet I am not marked by you, and let's not even talk about how you said nothing when your mother told me that she will get you another wife if I do not end up pregnant before the year ends. Do you care so little about me, or don't you even care at all?"
"No, I don't care at all." Sebastian coldly replied.
"Sebastian!"
"Before we got married, I warned you not to have any expectations of me, and you did. I told you I would grant you a divorce once you found your mate, and when you found him, you rejected him for the sake of wanting to remain the Luna of this pack. Also, why would I mark you when I feel nothing for you?"
"So you are actually glad that I have not been able to give you a child? You must be so happy that your parents and the council are ready to throw me out once the year ends."
"You are actually wrong about that. We have been together for two years, so getting married again would definitely be bothersome." Sebastian said, rubbing his sleepy eyes.
"Then it's a good thing I have found a solution for this bothersome problem."
Sebastian froze when he heard her. He slowly looked at her, and after a few seconds passed, he asked, "Are you pregnant?"
"Does becoming a father make you happy?"
Sebastian closed his eyes for ten seconds and then opened them. "You are not pregnant. I hear no heartbeat."
"I said I found a solution; you alone concluded that I was pregnant."
"Nine minutes. You have nine minutes remaining before I kick you out of this room, so go straight to the point."
"My friend Rhea has agreed to help me carry your child."
"I don't understand what you are saying, Violet."
Violet took in a deep breath and looked away from Sebastian's eyes as she said, "Since I can't get pregnant, I have come to accept that the only way for you to get a child is by sleeping with someone else, and Rhea has agreed to do this. To sleep with you and bear your child, and once the child is born, she will give it to us and go back to her normal life."
"Who is Rhea?"
Violet turned to look at him when she heard no repulsion in his voice. "The daughter of a lowborn warrior who is unable to speak."
Sebastian frowned, and his gaze hardened at Violet. "Are you out of your mind?"
"If you are worried about your child not being able to speak, then don't. Rhea wasn't born that way, so it's ok."
"You think that is what I'm worried about? You want an Omega to birth my child! Do you want her to die?"
"You are exaggerating; she won't die. And since she wants to do this, why should you be against it? We will become parents, and our lives will continue as they should."
"Not hers. That girl won't survive birthing my child."
"Then let her life will be a sacrifice that will be paid for this pack to get its heir. You know I'm right, Sebastian; this is something that has to be done, so let's just get it over with."
Sebastian remained silent for a moment before he sighed "Fine, bring her to me tomorrow night, but if she dies from this, her blood will be on you."
Violet shrugged and replied, "At least she will have the honor of bearing the child of a pureblood; not every woman has such privileges."
"If you are done, then get out."
Violet felt hurt by his cold dismissal, but she convinced herself that once their child was born, then Sebastian would become warm towards her. Yes, she will use this child to not only remain the Luna but also win his heart.
