Their love had been beautiful, and as they lay together in the afterglow, her fingers threaded with his as she sighed and melted in beside him.
"That was perfect," she commented with a soft kiss to his shoulder. "And beautiful." The last part, she sighed contentedly. Though she felt a bit messy after all this had happened, it reminded her that they had fully connected in that moment and had been as close as any man and woman in love could get. But recalling the consequences of their love, she turned to him.
"I... I need to tell you something that I hadn't thought of mentioning before we... well, you know." And here, she bit back her lower lip, feeling a bit nervous to say it, but he should know...
"Despite us making love, we can't ever have a child. I know we're too young to worry about that now but I... I'm going to have to take something before I go. To.. to ensure I can't get pregnant from this." And she blushed and looked away, feeling ashamed. But then again, she was a courtesan and it would be difficult to continue to do so if she got with child. Though, in all reality, would it be so bad if it was his? The maybe she could finally be rid of this terrible life! Oh.. if only such a dream could come true! But it seemed the world always had other plans for them- and none fr the better.
