The Moon Loved Her

Chapter Twelve

I kept composed and tried not to vomit before reaching home. When I arrived at the estate, I ran to the toilet and threw up.

Why would the smell of roses bother me so much?

Maybe I was sick. I went to the physician of my duchy and knocked on the door.

*Knock*
*Knock*

"Come in"

I heard a boyish voice and I opened the door. I entered the study room of the physician. An untidy place full of books, research papers and medicine bottles.

The teenage boy, turned around and as he saw me he froze.

"Your grace?! .... Why are you here? ... Are you hurt? Poisoned?"

"I think I am sick."

"What are your symptoms?"

"Dizziness, vomiting and loss of appetite."

The teenage boy who was until then purely worried, now was enraged.

"Your grace... Who did this to you?"

"Did what?"

"Let me check you to be sure."

The teen took my hand and felt my pulse. Then with a tiny knife he pricked my finger and took some of my blood. After further examining, with a stern face, he threw his gaze at me.

"Did you sleep with someone?"

"Well..."

"I get it"

*Sigh*

The physician sighed.

"You are not sick your grace..."

"Am I poisoned?"

"No..."

"Injured?"

"Neither your grace..."

"Then?"

"You are pregnant"

I was surprised to hear this last sentence. Killion Hills and I were going to have a child.

I left the study and went out. I had to find Killion. By the time I went out, Killion was waiting for me. It was the perfect time.

"Silvia"

"Killion! We have to talk..."

" I too, have something to tell you."

"Come in"

I led him to the lake of the estate and we went on the bridge. Killion seemed sad.

"Silvia... May I speak first?"

"Sure..."

"I am sorry..."

"Why are you sorry?"

"We can't get engaged..."

"What?"

"We can't..."

"I see..."

"Silvia-"

"You can leave now..."

"Did you have something to tell me?"

"Leave!!!"

"Silvia-"

"Get lost!!!"

I felt something break. He used me and then ran away. He was never different from the Grey family. I don't want to see him.
