The two of them sat at the small dinner table having a stare off. Kylo was ready to get on with the conversation about what he needed to know about how to be a better parent, how to look at the things Griffin did that would irritate him and how to manage his anger. By now, the drawings Griffin had done on Kylo's walls were covered, but the gruesome reminder of how Kylo reacted still sat right next to him: The empty chair that his son once sat in to eat meals with his family. His son had still not woken up, he worried endlessly about him and his status. Y/n had told him that Griffin had just passed out, that he was otherwise healthy other than the fact that Kylo scared him half to death. I didn't matter the kind of injuries the boy was suffering with, had Kylo stopped at just one lash he'd still feel just as guilty for harming his son.

As badly as he was ready to start the conversation with his wife, he also couldn't wait for her to take a swing of the wine he had prepared. As y/n took herself to the bathroom he coated the inside of her glass with the serum. It was almost invisible, definitely not something she'd notice in the fairly dim room. When Kylo heard her coming back out he quickly pocketed the serum, not wanting her to catch on to his master plan. The quicker he got her into his bed the better, they could always continue this conversation at a later date.

Once she had sat down he poured the wine, being careful to remember that her tainted glass was on the right. He wondered about the dosage, his men hadn't given him any instructions to go along with it so he had just assumed his original dosage. But then he worried that maybe it wouldn't be enough, that this entire evening would be wasted on just a simple conversation or that she'd not get horny enough and she'd suspect he poisoned her. He took another look over at her, his beautiful wife that was to die in less than ten days. Taking another look back down into her purple glass he decided that it was better to be safe than to be sorry when Snoke asked about the woman's pregnancy. He unscrewed the cap once more and dumped the entire bottle of serum into her glass, swished it around to stir it in, then grabbed his glass and ushered back to the table.

He sat the glass down in front of her and then took his seat across from her, taking in her less than thrilled look to being as close to him as she was. She eyed the wine suspiciously, he prayed to the maker that she wouldn't ask him to have a sip as she had done in the past. Kylo being ready to fuck her where she stood would do him no good if she wouldn't be willing to let him have her. She looked back up at him, he couldn't read her face but he counted the fact that she wasn't asking him about her wine as a victory and permission to start the conversation.

"Where do we begin?" He said, placing his wine back on the table. Her eyebrows shot up as her hands flew into her lap. "What do you mean by that? You're the one who wants this stupid conversation, not me." Kylo gripped his glass, biting the inside of his cheek as to stifle the anger and annoyance her comment brewed inside of him.

"Okay, I guess--"

"Why don't you tell me you're sorry and mean it for once in your life? Why don't you go see your unresponsive son as he suffers alone in the medbay and apologize to him?" She cut in just as he began speaking. "You can say you're sorry one million times about hurting me and then turn around and do the same thing the next day. Your words mean nothing, empty and lifeless just like what you did to Griffin. Kylo, you're so pathetic." She shook her head as she looked down at her wine, and as she did Kylo's anger slowly faded into content. "Go on y/n. I've made you mad, let it out. Let your anger out." He said trying to suppress his proud grin. He realized he had always kept his emotion in, causing him to eventually blow his top and destroy everything that he loved, including his wife and child. He could tell by his wife's new personality traits that she was beginning to house more and more anger, he didn't want her to end up like him, so he encouraged her to let her emotions loose, it was good for her even if he didn't like what she had to say.
