Carcel started taking contraceptives after she almost died. He will stop taking contraceptives during their hunting trip after Ines tells him “sincerely” that she want to have their child. That’s the very first time she tells him earnestly. She always talked about having a child like an obligation. Carcel notices she truly wants a child so he will stop taking contraceptives in the next two chapters or so. However, Ines finds out much later on that he was taking them during the time before the hunting trip and after her near death experience.
was carcel taking contraceptive pills during this time?
