Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 460

Chapter 460

After a busy day, and with the weather warming up, a bath was a necessity.

Rafael lifted Carissa effortlessly, his lips brushing her ear as he spoke in a husky, magnetic voice, “Perfect timing. Let’s bathe together.”

Carissa wrapped her arms around his neck, her curiosity piqued. “We’ve been intimate every night, yet we haven’t conceived. Why is that?”

“Are you eager to be pregnant soon?” Rafael carried her into the bathing chamber, and started to help her out of her dress.

“Not really. I’m just curious. I remember my mother saying that she found out she was pregnant just over a month after marrying my father.”

“I don’t think we need to rush into having children,” Rafael said, carefully peeling off her clothes until her fair shoulders were exposed. “I had Sebastian prescribe me some medicine. Let’s wait until your health fully recovers first–you were injured on the battlefield, after all.”

Her eyes widened. “You took contraceptive medicine? I’ve heard it can be quite harmful.”

Rafael chuckled. “If women can take it, why can’t men? Your health was already fragile. I couldn’t have you taking contraceptive medicine just to prevent pregnancy. Sebastian told me that it’s hard enough for women to build their strength back up. If you took it, it would undo all that progress and make things worse.”

Carissa was touched. She had never heard of a man willing to take such medicine himself.
