King Esteban and Queen Theodora merely stared at Esther, waiting for her to continue.

"Father, Mother, I am destined to have the Devil's child." 

Before anyone could open their mouth, Esther spoke in a low voice.

"This is my destiny. Having the Devil's child will happen one way or another. The Devil's curse falling on Megaris is precisely to force me to fulfil my destiny.

I should be the one to suffer in place of him but my destiny is causing him suffering. If only I could bear that curse in his stead, I would have done it but there is no such way…" 

She didn't know what the older couple were thinking as they stared at her in silence. Were they blaming her now? Was there disgust in their eyes? Anger? Hate?
