Chapter 2

***Natalia***

Tucking away my emotions, I stand on my feet and hand my mate the document claiming I am infertile.

“Just read it,” I whisper, feigning hurt.

He furrows his brows in concern and stares back at me with big blue eyes. “What is this, Nat?” I want to vomit in his face for calling me that but I swallow the bile instead.

“It’s a fertility test. Lila checked my ovarian function and reserve a few days ago,” I whisper, refusing to meet his eye.

He studies the pages, his face growing grimmer by the second.

“Y-you’re infertile?” he asks, flipping through the pages once more for confirmation.
