The heart break Vita Nova felt when she looked into Oswin's eyes and declined her sister's help was tragic. Nova felt like a downright disgrace, a fool, a coward. She couldn't believe the impossible position she had put herself in. There was nothing the steel-colored mare wanted more than to flee this place forever with Oswin. She never imagined life could be this way, and just how far away she'd gotten from her fairy tale-like upbringing in the Prairie. But here she was, pregnant and stuck in a desolate, hot terrain with an emotionally abusive stallion who didn't know he wasn't the father.
When Nova began to register the changes in her body, and could connect them to that intimate event with Fallo back in the Lagoon, she panicked. She fled to the far away oasis that Evren had told her about, and would sob and wail until she'd drift off into an exhausted slumber. She thought her life was over. Days passed and her body continued to change. Soon there would be no hiding the spawn growing inside of her. But then she got an idea. In a rare display of affection and loyalty to Koray, she allowed him to breed with her too. She hated every second of it. It took everything she had not to break down into tears in the middle of it. But when he finished, she knew it would at least buy her some time.
"I'm pregnant."
The words that slipped from her lips surprised even her. Her voice was weak, but loud enough for both to hear. The tears were nonstop now, streaming quietly down her face which otherwise remained frozen in a sullen, downtrodden expression.
