I Think My Fiancé Has Regressed - C100

Chapter 100: How to control your wild nightlife (5)

As soon as I finished speaking Charlotte, Eamon, and Kael turned to look at me with different emotions radiating from their eyes.

“…Some of us have only seen our first child in years, and Ariana is having such an easy time of it.”

Charlotte, who had only seen her first child in years thanks to Sophia’s medicine, showed me a cold gaze.

“Haha, if that’s a worry, I guess it’s a worry.”

Eamon mumbles something evasive as he watches Charlotte’s eyes.

“Well, that’s a very unfortunate thing to hear. I feel like I’ve lost money worrying about it.”

And then, after hearing it, Kael looked as if he was disappointed.

“Hey, why is everyone reacting like that? Why does it seem like I said something weird?!”

“No, because we never imagined that this was the kind of thing you were struggling with.”

“That’s why Alex and I tried to keep it a secret! Everyone kept questioning us, and we finally confessed, despite all the embarrassment!”

“… That’s right. It would be shameful to vent your anger like this by asking questions almost like interrogation.”

“If you look at how much brother and sister-in-law were worried, it must have been something serious.”

Charlotte and Eamon’s faces turned serious as they heard my words.

Kael also seemed to be pondering my words, and with a questioning look on his face, he asked me about the underlying cause.

“… Wait a minute. Is it possible that the kid keeps coming in and you’re worried that Alex’s heart condition is the root cause of the problem?”

“How do you know that, Kael?”

“Because when you talk about your problems with such a serious look on your face, it’s usually about Alex.”

And most of my worries about Alex are about his heart disease.

Kael seemed to perk up when he heard my answer.

Apparently, a younger brother’s intuition after more than a decade of life is hard to ignore.

“No, I’m not saying that my illness is the cause….”

“Well, if there’s a problem that Ariana can’t solve on her own and is struggling with, that’s probably the only one.”

“That makes sense. Of course, there are restrictions on the magic that can heal a heart. Especially when it’s not your own, but someone else’s.”

“I think I finally understand why my sister’s stomach is getting bigger every day.”

The three of them nodded, each recognizing the problem I and Alex had.

…I waited until the last minute to tell them, but now that I have, I feel a little embarrassed.

After all, this was practically an admission that Alex and I had been getting into trouble every night.

Just when I thought the three of them knew how intolerable the physical constraint of not being more than 15 meters away was for me and Alex.

Suddenly, a strange, unexpected speculation popped out of Kael’s mouth.

“In order to maintain the magic that repaired Alex’s heart, you and Alex need to have regular relations, right?”

“Huh? What does that suddenly mean….?”

“Well, even if the two of you were do-or-die personalities, there’s no way you’d be making love every single day for seven years… It’s really quite simple when you think about it.”

“…Charlotte?”

“If that’s the case, I can understand why you and Alex couldn’t talk about your problems. It’s certainly not something you can easily talk about with others.”

“…….”

“…….”

The three of them seemed to be misunderstanding something, and I was flustered and couldn’t say anything.

It was Alex who made the first move to clear up the sudden misunderstanding.

“I’m sorry, but I think we’re all misreading something about this.”

“What?”

“Brother?”

“What do you mean, misjudging?”

“Because fixing my heart disease and me and Ariana being conjugal every day…well, let’s be honest, there’s no connection.”

In other words, Alex and I were just fucking for pleasure every night.

As soon as the words came out of Alex’s mouth, I felt a wave of embarrassment wash over me.

“You’re not?”

“Then what you said earlier, about heart disease being the cause of your problems….”

“Is there some other limitation to my sister’s magic that I don’t know about?”

The three people whose first guesses were wrong once again turned to me for an explanation of what was going on.

“Well, Alex’s heart condition is the root cause of the problem.”

“Then what the hell is wrong with you, Ariana?”

“Well, you all know that I took Alex’s broken heart and turned it into a working heart, and to keep it that way, he can’t go more than fifteen meters away from me, right?”

“Right.”

“So, that constraint itself is the cause of my current troubles.”

“What are you talking about, sis? Explain it to me properly.”

When Kael looked at me as if he didn’t understand after all that I’d said, I risked embarrassment to finish my explanation.

“So, I’m saying that I and Alex can’t be more than 15 meters apart, rain or shine, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year?”

“I already know that.”

“When we wake up in the morning, when we get dressed after counting, when we eat, when we go to work, when we travel, when we go to bed. We’re supposed to be showing each other everything at all times!”

“Okay, so what’s the big deal about that?”

“I know it’s an inconvenient restriction, but what does it have to do with you worrying about getting pregnant?”

“Oh, really, really!”

How can everyone be so clueless?! I can’t believe these people are the dignitaries of the Kingdom of Leavrov!

Or are they just going to stop trying and see something embarrassing come out of my mouth?!

Eventually, my patience ran out, and I stood up and told everyone the real reason why this was happening.

“I’m waking up to Alex’s face every morning, going into the same bathroom, washing each other’s bodies, changing clothes and going to bed together?! How on earth can I put up with that and go to bed together?! Isn’t it a woman’s natural desire to want to be held every night by a man as handsome and caring as Alex, with such great nightly skills?”

“…So, having sex every night to share the magic that keeps Alex’s heart beating is a….”

“There’s no way I’d make love every night for such a ridiculous reason, it’s just that living in close proximity to Alex every day would make us unbearable! Alex’s heart condition forces us to be in close physical proximity!”

“…….”

“…….”

“Why can’t you people understand this simple thing?! I make love to Alex every night because I miss him even when we’re together….”

“Ariana….It’s embarrassing, so please stop now….”

By the time Kael and Eamon’s desperate stares had finally reached me, Alex had wrapped her arms around my face like a little girl and said.

“If it weren’t for the next queen, I’d just….”

And with that, only Charlotte’s murderous voice reached my ears from the silent table.

After Alex and Eamon had calmed me and Charlotte’s emotions, we had another meeting to address our issues.

“Why don’t you just suck it up and keep getting pregnant? If you have another twenty or so, your love for each other will die down, so why don’t you just end it?”

“Come on, Charlotte. You know Ariana didn’t say that out of spite.”

“…Hmm.”

Prince Eamon calmed down Charlotte, who somehow managed to spout off a few sharp words, and even as he did so, Kael seemed to be seriously considering the matter between me and Alex.

“So, to sum it up, you want to somehow stop the conjugal relations you and Alex share every night?”

“It’s not that I want to stop, it’s just that it has to stop for a while because of Alex’s coronation….”

“That’s not the point right now, it’s more important to get rid of my sister’s constant pregnancy anyway.”

“…Uh-huh, right.”

“By the way, my sister is a flower garden in her head, but that’s just me….”

A field of flowers, that’s a bit harsh, even for a brother and sister.

I silently swallowed my words and waited for the next words to come out of Kael’s mouth.

“Isn’t Alex usually the one who restrains you when you go off like this? From the way you talk, it sounds like he’s just as active in the relationship as you are.”

“…I really don’t know what to say about that, little brother.”

“Well, that’s just the way she is, but it’s times like this that you should be the one to keep her centered.”

“I really don’t know what to say. As a servant of the monarch, I always try to keep a cool head, but when it comes to Ariana, I seem to be as stupid as she is.”

“Wait, Kael. What do you mean you’re like that, and what do you mean you turn into an idiot like me, Alex?”

Trying to refute the sour assessment coming out of my brother and husband’s mouths.

“…Ms. Ariana, do you mind if I take a moment?”

From outside the restaurant, a woman with brown hair was walking inside.

“Ah, Miss Natalia.”

A former member of Sierra’s entourage, who had changed her mind and now held one of the highest positions in the Kingdom of Leavrov.

It was Natalia Frisseria, the Minister of Political Affairs.
