The mansion was as quiet as always. You sat curled up on the silk sheets of the massive bed, a thick blanket wrapped tightly around your shoulders as you stared silently out the floor-to-ceiling glass window. Outside, a heavy layer of snow completely blanketed the frozen branches of the garden. Viktor had been away on a military mission for a week, but he was scheduled to return home today. You were deeply lost in your own thoughts, haunted by a unsettling discovery from yesterday.
Three days ago, Eleonora—the older, trusted housekeeper—helped you when you suddenly felt nauseous during dinner. She stayed by your side in the bathroom until you felt better. Noticing this had happened several days in a row, she gently insisted on taking you to see a doctor. The news from the doctor was heartbreaking for you: Eleonora’s suspicion was correct—you were pregnant. Terrified of being tied even deeper to Viktor, you strictly commanded Eleonora to keep her mouth shut and not utter a single word to anyone, especially not to Viktor.
The quiet room was only broken by the soft crackle of burning wood in the fireplace and the overwhelming noise in your head. Suddenly, the silence was shattered by the panicked, rushed footsteps of a maid hurrying up the stairs, her voice echoing down the corridor Mrs. Volkova, please wait! The General gave strict orders, you are not allowed in here! Please stop!
Before you could step out of bed, the heavy double doors were thrown open. A woman stepped inside, draped in a high-class wool coat and fur hat, her voice laced with sharp fury as she practically snarled at you You ungrateful, bratty girl! It’s been an entire year since the wedding... why can’t you fix your disgraceful attitude toward my son?!
