"So, It was quite a surprise, and a coincidence that the bride of Kylo Ren turned out to have the force." You gulped and regained your confident posture.

"I can assure you I was not aware of it until most recently." Snoke smirked at this and his eyes looked into your soul.

"You were meant to marry Ren with the prospect of producing children, but the appearance of this child changes things."

"Kylo doesn't want kids." You said firmly

"I do not care what that whiny man-child wants or doesn't want. I want an army. Even if your training with the boy carries through I expect both of you to produce offspring." He growled. You nodded that you understood.

"Good. I like you, (Y/N). I hope you won't disappoint me like Kylo Ren has." His image faded and you quickly hurried away. You were shaking and you felt completely terrified. You stopped in the hall as it dawned on you.

This must be how Leo felt when Kylo spoke to him

You walked through the hallways, following the burnt lightsaber trail back to your quarters. You opened the door and were relieved to see the room was still intact, minus a few chairs that had been sliced in half.

"Kylo?" You called out. You were still a bit angry with him, but after your private conversation with Snoke you needed a hug. You entered his private office and found him, head in hands and angry.

"Kylo... baby, I'm sorry." You kneeled down on the floor next to his chair. He refused to look at you even as you leaned on him. Your hands rubbed his back and caressed his cheek. "Please, I'm sorry. I don't want us to fight." He turned his torso to look at you and your hands dropped to your side. You prepared yourself for him to yell at you and winced when he inhaled. He noticed your cringe and stopped. He placed a hand to his temple.

"Goddammit (Y/N)." He rubbed his head. "I want to be mad at you-no, I am mad at you. But force help me I cant." He stood up and you followed him. He looked stressed, but not angry. He gave you a kiss on the cheek. "I'm sorry I yelled at you." You gave him a weak smile.

"I'm sorry I yelled back." You hugged him and stayed in his embrace, and after a bit he let go.

"So, we have a kid now." He said with disgust.

He isn't really ours is he? Just for training, its not like we are his parents...

"Well I guess.." You stared at the ground. "Where is he going to stay, Kylo?" He sighed and walked over to the wall. He pressed his hand to it and a secret door opened. Your jaw dropped. "How many secret rooms do you have?!" He smirked a bit and you followed him inside. It was a small room with a cot and a dresser.

"He can stay here. Might as well." He looked like he had given up and just accepted the fact that they had to train the child whether he liked it or not. You stepped towards him and reached up to give him a kiss on the cheek. He turned and kissed you passionately on the mouth. Then he stopped mid kiss and pulled away. His eyebrows furrowed in concentration.

"The child will be just a few walls away." He stated deep in thought. "When will be able to..." He looked at you. You smiled and gave him a wink.

"They'll be time, love." You both left the quarters to retrieve Leo. The troopers had left him in a guarded cell. You rolled your eyes at the high security measures that were being taken for such a small boy. Leo sat in the center of the room on the floor. He looked tired, scared, and beaten. Kylo, clad in his terrifying helmet, spoke first.

"Child! You will follow us and-" You held up a hand to stop him and turned so only he could hear.

"Let's me handle this, please?" He nodded slightly and you turned and crouched down by Leo. You held out a hand for him to shake.

"Hi Leo, I'm (Y/N)." You smiled as Leo carefully took your hand and gave it a slight shake. He sat up a bit and you gestured toward Kylo. "This is my husband, Kylo. I know he's a bit scary, but he won't hurt you." Leo looked at Kylo in fear. "Do you know why you are here, Leo?" You asked and brought his attention back to you. He opened his mouth as if to answer but closed it and shook his head no. You sat down criss-cross on the floor with him and started to explain. "Both Kylo and I can control what is called the force. It's pretty hard to explain, but we believe with enough training you can control it, too." Leo gave you a confused look.

"But, what is it?" He asked. You smiled, pulling your marbles from your pocket.

"Let me show you." You did a few tricks with the marbles and wanted to laugh at Leo's awestruck expression.

"And he can do it too?" He asked, giving Kylo a quick glance. You nodded to Kylo and he gave an annoyed sigh. With the flick of his wrist the stormtrooper next to him smashed into the wall. He wasn't hurt but you still glared at Kylo to show that he could've been less violent. Leo surprisingly did not look scared by Kylo's demonstration, but more interested.

"Leo, you are going to stay with Kylo and I so we can teach you how to do these things." He nodded in understanding and you climbed to your feet. You helped Leo stand and he followed you and Kylo back to the quarters. Once inside, Kylo removed his helmet. He looked frustrated and annoyed. He looked at Leo and finally spoke. It was evident he was trying very hard to keep his voice kinder than usual.

"Leo, I have set aside a room for you." Leo looked in wonder at the tech surrounding the living room and kitchen. You smiled at this and entered the kitchen with him. Kylo followed behind.

"Are you hungry?" You asked, and Leo nodded enthusiastically. You prepared food for three and sat it at the table, happy that some stormtroopers had come in and replaced the chairs in your absence. Kylo begrudgingly sat down with you and Leo and ate his food in silence. After a while you noticed Leo's eyes growing heavy and you escorted him to his room. He sat down on his bed and you started to leave.

"(Y/N)?" He called out and you stopped. "What planet are we on?" You leaned against the doorway.

"Well it isn't really a planet, more of a ship. If Kylo let's us I can show you around tomorrow." He smiled and you left the room. Waiting for you on your own bed was Kylo. He had changed into his regular clothes and looked stressed. You sat down next to him and rubbed his back. He leaned against your shoulder and your other hand rested against his knee. You both sat there in silence for a while as Kylo's breathing slowed. You found that sometimes if you just held him for a while all his anger would float away. His hand moved to yours he held your it softly.

"I know Snoke spoke to you after I left." He said quietly. You had almost forgotten about that.

"He told me that he wants us to have children." You explained. "But you don't want that so we don't have to-"

"We have to, one cannot just ignore Snoke. If he wants kids we have to give him kids." Kylo's voice was choked. You held him tighter. You knew the idea made him very upset.

"I'm sorry." You said, kissing his head. You didn't have to look at his face to know he was crying.
