Jasmine despaired over her lot. The clothes had arrived, she had no choice but to accept her debt. Even though it pushed back when she might be able to leave for Anya.
As the days went by, Jasmine began to show signs of her pregnancy. She vomited, grew ill from smells, and experienced intense cravings. Luckily, the cook, Betsy, was more than happy to satisfy the pregnant young woman's wants.
The worst was when Jasmine's body began to change. Her flat stomach began to grow, revealing to all that she had been impregnated. And her already generous bust became even larger, filling with more milk. Jasmine needed a babe suckling from her nigh constantly to prevent her breasts from becoming painfully engorged. Luckily, Bry and Pyotr were more than up to the task.
In her sixth month, Jasmine sat in the nursery, feeding the two babes and thinking. She had to earn money some other way. But how? The former Lord Lake squirmed within her. Jasmine's eyes widened. That was it! She would sell the former Lord Lake once he was born. Children were worth much to the right person. And Jasmine knew who the right person to be.
