Casmir was surprising. She couldn't expect anything from him other than his natural reaction and he was offering it up readily. He didn't hold it against her directly, though he may have been upset, but, he hid it well if he was truly angry with her. Rowan couldn't answer why Aria was so upset - not without giving away how the dark male and been involved with the pale Alpha. That was a whole other can of worms she did not intend to open. God help her if it came to it, too, for Casmir's involvement with the female. 

"Because they aren't legitimate." Rowan supplied simply, watching his golden gaze as it looked her over. She was still fresh into her pregnancy, and though she felt like she knew the voices she could not be certain who would stay and who would go. Maybe it was all for not, maybe none would make it, but the witch did not see that as her fate. She saw Lasher's heirs, his last children, the final generation of witches. "I'm nervous to tell anyone else." She admitted. She hadn't know Lasher's reputation, she hadn't bothered to find out from others of his wayward mate - she was destroying him to his children, all by bringing the new ones about. Maybe it owuld have been easier if she had lied. Claimed another male, some random beast, was their father. 

That sounded too close to shame though. Rowan gave a laugh as abrupt as Casmir's question and she shook her head. "I'm not that far along. They move, but, I don't think I can feel it yet." In the coming weeks she would, but for now, her sides had just begun to noticeably swell. She could still hide her condition, for the most part.
