"Really barren?"He rose an eyebrow at her and placed his hand on her knee as he sat back, leaning his head in a comfortable position on the couch, he had never realized how wonderful this house was before when he was a servant, but now he noticed every luxury,"Yes, I believe she is... I was never so...fertile myself, and simply after one damn time this happens to me."He scowled, no he didn't hate the child that was put inside of him but he did hate it's father and the means of how it got there, he wished that if this had ever happened to him it would be because his wife was simply tired of rearing children herself. "I have no-"He stopped himself,"She hasn't left her room for weeks."He corrected himself, looking to his wife and raising his hand to rub his knuckle against her cheek gently,"It's just one big...hodgepodge of lies and truths and things we should have no part of because it's nobility's problem to deal with."He sat up slightly again and kissed her head,"I am just glad we have it like we do... Yes it would be easier to be rich, but why be rich when you lose your soul either way?"
