The Villain's End Is Pregnancy - c94
– Ryan
‘What the hell did I do?’
Ryan sighed as he rubbed his face vigorously against the blanket. No matter how he thought about it, he must have been crazy.
‘It’s the pheromones, the pheromones.’
Although he himself had experienced how sensitively alphas and omegas react to pheromones, this time he really felt like he was helplessly swayed.
No matter what, that’s too much.
“Haa… How could I have thought of acting promiscuously without even realizing I was pregnant?”
Sighing a long breath, he slyly looked down at his belly.
‘Baby, I’m sorry. I briefly lost my mind.’
He apologized while rubbing it. A feeling of remorse surged up for the existence that had been pushed out of his consciousness when he was intoxicated by pheromones and doing lewd things with Hendrick.
“I should have been considerate of you.”
I really don’t know why I did that either. Next time, I won’t succumb to any temptation. As he made a resolution, he recalled Hendrick looking at him with feverish eyes, and his determination easily wavered.
There wouldn’t be many omegas who could reject the temptation of an alpha whose hearts are connected, and Ryan would be the same.
‘I’m really sorry. From now on, I won’t do it to the point of straining you.’
In the midst of this, he wasn’t saying he wouldn’t do it, but that he would be careful, and he slyly turned his eyes to the door.
Hendrick, who had barely escaped from his hands several times, seemed to have come to his senses belatedly, kneeling and apologizing, worrying about the child in his belly.
He asked here and there if his stomach hurt or if he was dizzy, and finally, he hurriedly wiped Ryan and left, saying he would call the court physician.
“Funny… He could have just called.”
Since he’s a prince, he could have called an attendant and ordered them to bring the court physician. But he was so flustered that he went to find him in person, didn’t he?
“He knows he did something wrong too.”
Right. I don’t understand why Hendrick acted like that.
“It didn’t seem like his rut…”
If it had been his rut, it wouldn’t have been resolved with just that much. The flushed face, the rough breathing, the suffocating kisses that pushed me down.
Why?
For a moment, a strong alpha pheromone wafted through his nose. Ryan flinched and rolled his eyes to look around. Hendrick hadn’t returned. It was the lingering scent left in the air.
“This is driving me crazy.”
How much did he release? Now that he looked, he could feel not only Hendrick’s pheromones but also his own. Ryan, whose face had gotten hot, hurriedly got out of bed.
It seemed like he should ventilate before the court physician arrived.
‘Even though he saw everything, the good and the bad.’
Still, he didn’t want to make him imagine the lewd acts they had done.
“Ryan?”
Just as he drew the curtains and opened the windows wide, he heard a voice. When he turned his head to look, he saw Hendrick scanning the room, not knowing when he had arrived.
“You’re here?”
“Why are you there?”
Hendrick, upon discovering Ryan, immediately started approaching him.
“Just getting some fresh air.”
“Why are you doing that? Call the attendants.”
Right. I just laughed at you earlier, but I acted the same way. It’s embarrassing, so I said I’ll open the window to let the smell out.
“Well, just…”
Unable to say it like that, he vaguely ended his words.
“Come here. Sit down.”
Hendrick twitched his eyebrows as if displeased, then took his hand and led him to the bed. As Ryan was obediently dragged by him, he saw the court physician following behind Hendrick.
“Is there any discomfort anywhere?”
Perhaps it was his imagination, but the court physician’s expression felt uniquely subtle. He thought he had something to say, but it seemed that wasn’t the case.
“No, not really.”
Although his hands still felt a bit hot, his lips were swollen from being bitten and sucked too much, and his heart had been pounding since earlier, making him concerned. But these weren’t things he needed to explain much to the court physician.
“Ryan, are you really okay? Your stomach doesn’t hurt or feel numb?”
Hendrick, who had been watching, asked again. Reading the worry in his eyes, Ryan deliberately examined his body’s condition one more time.
“Yeah. I’m fine.”
When he smiled to reassure him, only then did Hendrick’s expression relax. If he was going to be like this, why did he pounce like a beast earlier?
It was absurd, but on the other hand, seeing Hendrick minding him looked cute, so Ryan’s expression eased considerably.
“Still, Ryan. You should be careful for the time being.”
The court physician, who had been watching, advised.
“Please refrain from intense activities until you enter a somewhat stable period, and try to do it only to the extent that it doesn’t strain your body. And it’s also good for the fetus if you release pheromones only to the extent of stabilizing your body and mind.”
Moreover, every word that came out was incredibly embarrassing, so his gaze naturally fell. He had guessed it was a strange look earlier, but it seemed that wasn’t a mistake.
“Of course, I think you two will do well…”
“To what extent does it not strain the body?”
Before the court physician could finish speaking, Hendrick abruptly asked a question. At the same time, Ryan’s head also shot up.
“Pardon?”
“Do I need to ask again?”
“Ah, no. That’s not it, well, you see…”
It’s not that he didn’t hear the question. It’s just that he was momentarily dazed, wondering if the person in front of his eyes who said that was really the prince, and if he was truly curious.
“Hey, Hendrick!”
It wasn’t just the court physician who was flustered. Ryan stopped him with a very red face.
“Ryan, this is an extremely important issue.”
“You, argh, really!”
What’s so important about that? There’s a limit to being shameless. I really can’t face the court physician. Ryan got up from his seat and covered Hendrick’s mouth.
No one stopped the rude behavior towards the prince. Rather, the palace people and knights guarding outside the room even smiled contentedly.
“As long as you do it like today… To the extent that it doesn’t strain your body too much.”
Even with his mouth covered by Ryan, the court physician reluctantly answered because of the prince who was urging an answer with a sharp gaze.
But even that wasn’t satisfactory, as Ryan felt the lips mumbling against his palm. A ticklish sensation rushed in, as if a bird was pecking with its beak, making the corners of his mouth twitch involuntarily.
“Stay still for a bit.”
He tried to sternly rebuke him. Then Hendrick drooped the corners of his eyes as if it was unfair. I don’t know why that looks unnecessarily cute again.
Ryan sighed and released his hand. No, the moment he tried to do that, he flinched at the feeling of his palm being wetly swept.
“…!”
Moreover, when he tried to pull his hand away, a large hand grabbed his wrist, preventing him from escaping, surprising him even more.
Their eyes intertwined in mid-air. He saw the pupils drawing curves and bending.
Smack. Smack.
A tickle more intense than before rushed in with the continuing contact.
“Ahem, ahem, ahem.”
The atmosphere between the two disappeared in an instant with the sound of a fake cough. Ryan quickly pushed the firm chest and took a step back. His cheeks were dyed the color of a plum.
“Then I will take my leave now.”
Just as Hendrick’s eyes sparkled again at the sight, the court physician greeted.
“Yeah, okay.”
Ryan, who roughly nodded his head at the farewell greeting, was fanning his hand. The court physician, who was blankly watching, knew it was time for him to leave due to the gaze piercing his cheeks.
He wanted to say one more thing, but if he did, the prince wouldn’t be able to stay still.
‘It’s a good time.’
Isn’t it the time to enjoy the passion? Although his belly is now protruding and his appearance is no longer as dashing as before, the court physician quietly left, recalling his still reliable spouse.
Left alone in the room, Ryan wiped his dry face vigorously. While doing so, he busily racked his brain on how to break this awkward atmosphere.
Then he realized that this wasn’t a situation where he should be spacing out like this. How could he have completely forgotten?
“How did it go?”
It was a place where not only his life but also the safety of his family was at stake. Not only did he faint, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he even did such an embarrassing act.
“The misunderstanding was cleared up, and Liam also admitted the charges and was arrested. His Majesty will take care of the rest, so you don’t have to worry.”
That was a word that contained a lot of content. It seemed like he did that for Ryan’s sake, but Ryan couldn’t just overlook the points he was curious about.
“Specifically, how?”
Hendrick pondered for a moment and then revealed what had happened in the hall.
“I revealed that the person who instructed to mix hydrian extract into the glass of alcohol you handed me was Liam Seiden. And it was also revealed that he illegally extracted and distributed liquid from the hydrian flowers. He will pay dearly for that sin.”
“So it ended up like that…”
The truth was revealed, and Liam, who had tried to frame him, had fallen. Have I deviated from the original story now? Then what will happen from now on?
Along with relief, another worry struck him. At that moment, a firm hand enveloped Ryan’s hand.
Startling back to his senses and raising his gaze, his alpha was standing in front of him.
