She decided to come clean about it when she found she is pregnant

The former Margrave Marrine Kreische, then Chancellor, and now, Empress of the Empire of Leon after being officiated personally by her husband, is standing by the window, looking at the beauty of garden in the palace in the midday.

Then, she raises her right hand and rub at her belly, revealing the small bumb on it. Then, a frown formed on her face. These babies. She does not know what to think of them. On one side, they're nothing but mistakes! But on one side, she knows that they are innocent and have nothing to do with Milza's actions. Now, her pregnancy is two-month-old.

The reason why she is so confusing about these unborn children in her belly so much is because despite the fact that her husband, Emperor Alexis, knows that she willingly traded her virginity with the Mirza of Dartania, he does not know that he impregnated her because even she wasn't sure that he will got her pregnant!

Suddenly, Alexis appeared behind her and hug her.

"My beloved." Alexis said as he's hugging her. Then, he notices the frown on her face.

"May I know what's on your mind?" Alexis asked, really worry about his beloved Empress. Once he asked that, the Empress turned around to face him.

"Your Majesty... I have wronged you." Marrine as tears started forming in her eyes.

"What do you mean? If this is about what Prince Milza did to you, then-" Alexis said but before he could finish, Marrine interrupted him.

"I AM PREGNANT! And I... I... I suspected that it is Mirza Milza's child..." Marrine as she's starting to cry as she falling on her knees, really regret about allowing him to take her virginity and impregnate her without her consent.

"If... if you wanted me to get rid of them, I understand. I also personally wanted not to have them as the reminders of the greatest mistake that I have committed as well! And if you wanted, you can have me executed on the charge of cheating as well!" Marrine said as she's still crying on her knees.

As she is crying on the ground, Alexis is still standing before her and his eyes showed no emotions whatsoever. After what appeared to be like forever, the Emperor finally spoken.

"No... you will not be executed on any charge." Alexis said as he is kneeling down and help raise her up. And upon hearing that, Marrine looked at him in the eyes with wonder with tears still steaming down.

"As for the children in your belly, I am willing to take them in for you. Plus, this will be a good opportunity to form good relations with Dartania in the future as well." Alexis said with a smile. Marrine cannot help but break down in tears once again and hug him. But this time, they are tears of happiness because not only Alexis told her that the children she sired with the Mirza of Dartania are not mistakes but also accepting them in as well!

After that, both of them shared a passionate kiss with one another.
