Pregnancy Is Too Much For The Villain

She touched her lips awkwardly, as if unfamiliar with bringing up such a topic, but quickly began to reassure her lord's partner, understanding the misunderstanding that had occurred.

“I suffered a slight accident in the past, which left my pheromone receptors damaged. Because of that, I am unable to sense others' pheromones.”

“…!”

“Since I can’t detect pheromones at all, there was nothing to endure in the first place. You could say I’m almost like a beta.”

Valentin’s face stiffened in shock at this unexpected reason. Without realizing it, he had made her explain something painful from her past. Sabina, seeing him at a loss for words, smiled brightly and shook her head.

“There’s no need for that expression. In fact, it's brought me a lot of comfort in life. It was a long time ago.”

“I apologize for unintentionally prying into your personal matters… I’m truly sorry.”

“No! I should be the one apologizing. I often acted in ways that might have made you uncomfortable without meaning to. I should have apologized earlier.”

“…It’s all in the past now. There’s no need to worry.”

Valentin bowed his head in return as Sabina lowered hers. Seeing this, Felix, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help but interject in a dramatic fashion.

“There’s no need to apologize to this woman, Your Highness. We are simply the Marquis’s most loyal subordinates.”

Sabina nodded with a soft smile, agreeing with Felix's words.
