Side Story.4

After a while, she let go and whispered in his ear.

“Honey, lie down.”

At the word ‘Honey’, Feroza hesitated, then lay back.

Instead of lying beside him, Ellie took off her underwear and climbed on top.

“Ellie?”

Feroza called her name, eyes wide.

Except for the night of the founding festival, she had never taken the lead before.

“Ellie, why are you on top……?”

“I wanted to try a new position for a change.”

She positioned herself above him and gently rubbed against him.

“Wait……. Ellie, it hurts if you don’t loosen up.”

“I know.”

She knew very well.

Even if she prepared well, Feroza’s size always made it a tight fit.

Ellie lifted her hips and used her fingers to prepare herself.

“Ah, mm…….”

Breathing heavily, she glanced at Feroza, who was watching her with a dazed expression.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Ellie focused on preparing herself.

But it was a little difficult, so she struggled.

Feroza spoke up.

“Ellie, should I help?”

“How?”

“Turn around.”

After hesitating, Ellie carefully turned her body.

“Stick your hips out.”

Following his instructions, she bent forward, and Feroza’s er*ction came into view.

She bit her lip and said,

“T-this is too embarrassing…….”

“It feels good for both of us.”

Feroza gently parted her entrance with his fingers.

Then he began to lick her.

“Wait, ah, mm, ah……!”

Her body trembled instantly.

Feeling it was too much to just stay still, she took him into her mouth.

She licked the tip with her tongue, then moved to the shaft.

He was hot, throbbing, and had a sensual scent.

As Feroza licked her, he also used his fingers inside.

Because of that, Ellie couldn’t focus.

She gasped, sometimes taking him into her mouth, sometimes just licking.

“Ah, wait, stop……!”

She felt like she was about to climax.

Trying to pull away, Feroza gripped her hips tightly and pushed his fingers deeper.

“Ha……!”

Her body shook, and her mind went blank.

She knew she was dripping, but couldn’t stop.

Her arms, braced on the bed, trembled.

Breathing heavily, she barely managed to turn and face Feroza.

He smiled and spoke.

“You taste good.”

“……What?”

“You’re sweet.”

“Did you… drink it?”

“Yes.”

Feroza nodded as if it was the most natural thing.

Knowing he drank it made Ellie blush deeply.

“Why would you drink that?”

“Would you just waste it?”

“What are you……!”

Ellie glared at him, but he just smiled.

She swallowed a sigh and lifted her hips, rubbing his tip against her entrance.

Her body was ready to take him in.

Feeling mischievous, Ellie inserted him slowly on purpose.

“Ellie…….”

He called her name desperately, but she pretended not to hear and kept going.

“Don’t move, mm, or I’ll pull out.”

“Ha…….”

Feroza’s hands on her thighs trembled.

Slowly but surely, he was fully inside.

“Ha…….”

Even just having him inside pressed deep, making her stomach ache.

Ellie slowly moved her hips back and forth.

“Ah, mm, mm……!”

Even slight movement was intense.

And Feroza seemed to feel the same.

He gritted his teeth so hard it was visible.

Then Feroza spoke.

“Ellie, sorry.”

“Huh? What do you—ah, wait, mm!”

He thrust up hard.

Her body shook, and she felt completely filled.

She had meant to lead, but was swept away by Feroza.

They both reached climax again.

Ellie collapsed on top of Feroza, drained.

“Ha…….”

Having s*x in the middle of the night would shock anyone who heard.

But she was satisfied.

“Ellie, come down for a second. I’ll clean you up.”

“Okay.”

She lifted herself, and as she withdrew, she felt his release trickle down her leg.

Feroza hurried to the bathroom, came back with a warm, wet towel, and gently cleaned her.

After tidying up, he lay down beside her.

Ellie rolled into his arms, feeling relaxed.

She yawned, and he patted her belly.

“Go to sleep.”

“You’re the reason I woke up in the middle of the night…….”

Feroza just smiled.

Well, since they enjoyed it together, she couldn’t blame him alone.

Nestled in his arms, Ellie closed her eyes.

* * *

Several months had passed since Ellie became Grand Duchess.

The seasons had grown cold and then warm again.

Ellie was still swamped with work, but it wasn’t as hard as it had been at first.

Fortunately, she had gained some experience and grown accustomed to it.

There was only one problem.

“Haam…….”

Lately, she had been feeling constantly sleepy.

“Why am I so drowsy?”

No sooner had she said that than another yawn escaped her.

“Maybe it’s because the room is warm.”

Although the weather was gradually warming up, the room still felt a bit chilly, so she kept the stove burning.

The steady crackling sound of the firewood made her even sleepier.

Just then, there was a knock and Roni peeked her face in.

“Grand Duchess, it’s time for lunch.”

“Okay.”

Ellie slowly got up and headed to the dining room.

She yawned again as she walked.

She thought she might need a nap after lunch.

At the entrance to the dining room, Feroza was waiting for her.

“Ellie.”

“Were you waiting for me?”

“Yes. But are you very sleepy?”

“Is it that obvious?”

Feroza nodded.

Knowing he had noticed made Ellie feel a little awkward.

“I’m going to take a nap after lunch.”

“You should. Are you overworking yourself these days?”

“No.”

Ellie shook her head firmly.

Lately, she had been especially tired at night, so she’d been finishing up work early.

“Let’s eat lunch first.”

“Yes.”

As soon as she entered the dining room, a savory aroma filled the air.

But suddenly, the smell made her stomach churn.

She furrowed her brow slightly, and Feroza immediately noticed, speaking with concern.

“Ellie, are you feeling sick? Are you alright?”

“I’m fine. Really.”

She reassured him, thinking it was just fatigue.

After calming him down, she sat in her chair.

Once seated, the food was served one after another. The main dish was duck steak.

Her stomach still felt unsettled, but not so much that she couldn’t eat.

Feroza kept glancing at her, so she smiled to show she was okay and sliced the duck.

Just as she was about to take a bite, her stomach lurched and she gagged.

“Ugh!”

“Ellie!”

Her hand lost strength, and the fork clattered loudly to the floor.

Covering her mouth with her hand, she took deep breaths, when suddenly her body was lifted up.

“Bring the physician. Right now.”

“Yes, yes!”

Feroza carried her out of the dining room and quickly climbed the stairs.

Once in the bedroom, he gently laid her on the bed as if she were a glass doll.

“Feroza.”

His expression was so serious that Ellie called his name to soothe him.

“Ellie…….”

Feroza knelt on one knee before her, holding her hand and bowing his head.

“Feroza, I’m alright. It was just… a moment of nausea.”

“I’m not alright. I called for the physician, so let’s get you examined.”

Ellie realized that no matter how much she insisted she was fine, Feroza wouldn’t accept it.

So, instead of saying more, she reached out and gently stroked his hair.

Soon, the door burst open and the physician entered.

“Grand Duchess, are you alright?”

“Um, I’m not bleeding or injured, just a little nauseous.”

Feeling embarrassed, Ellie gave a sheepish smile.

Feroza stepped aside, and the physician brought a chair and sat in front of her.

“Excuse me for a moment.”

The physician began to examine her.

He tilted his head, wore a serious expression, then tilted his head again.

Sensing something unusual, Feroza spoke in a sharp voice.

“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”

“May I ask the Grand Duchess a few questions?”

The physician looked at Ellie.

She nodded, a bit dazed.

“Go ahead.”

“Well…… Grand Duchess, have you been feeling very sleepy and tired lately?”

“Yes. Day and night, I’ve been so sleepy it’s affected my work. I was just thinking of taking a nap after lunch.”

“Then…… excuse me, but when was your last period?”

‘Huh? Period?’

The unexpected question made Ellie blink in confusion.

‘Come to think of it, it seems overdue.’

Her menstrual cycle was managed by Roni, so she turned to look at her.

Roni spoke up as if she’d been waiting.

“Actually, this month’s date has passed. So I thought it was a bit strange…….”

Ellie’s heart pounded.

She looked at Feroza, who also looked tense.

Turning back to the physician, she saw him smiling kindly.

“Congratulations, Grand Duchess. You’re pregnant.”

“……Me? I’m pregnant?”

“Yes.”

The physician nodded.

“My goodness…….”

Ellie covered her open mouth with her hand.

“No strenuous exercise. Don’t work late into the night. Managing your condition is most important. And above all, until you reach a stable period, avoid s*xual relations.”

At the mention of s*xual relations, Ellie’s ears turned red with embarrassment.

“Once again, congratulations, Grand Duchess.”

“Thank you.”

After the physician left, Roni spoke in a bright voice.

“Congratulations, Grand Duchess! You’re pregnant! May I go tell the other staff?”

“Go ahead, Roni.”

“Yes!”

Roni nodded vigorously and hurried out of the room.

Ellie turned to Feroza.

He was staring at her in a daze.

More precisely, he was staring at her belly.

“Feroza.”

“…….”

“Feroza?”

“……Ah, sorry.”

When Ellie raised her voice a little, Feroza snapped back to himself.

“Are you okay? Um, perhaps…….”

“It’s not that. Of course, considering how many times we’ve been together, I thought pregnancy was possible, but actually hearing it…… I’m just overwhelmed.”

“You thought I’d say something else?”

Feroza gave a small smile and sat down beside her.

“You were going to ask if I wanted the baby, weren’t you?”

“……How did you know?”

“Because I didn’t answer right away.”

He gently took her shoulder and pulled her into his arms.

“Really…… I’m so happy, Ellie.”

“Really?”

“Really. Just thinking about a child who looks like you makes me feel so moved.”

Feroza let go of her and looked at her.

His words were so sincere, Ellie couldn’t help but smile.

“But why are you so sure the child will look like me? It could look like you.”

“I want to see what you looked like as a child.”

“I want to see what you looked like as a child, too.”

Ellie gave him a playful glance, and Feroza burst out laughing.

“Then maybe our child will resemble both of us equally.”

Feroza cupped her face and kissed her repeatedly.

Then, smiling brightly, he said,

“Really…… I’m so happy.”

“I’m happy too.”

Ellie carefully placed her hand on her belly.

It was so early that her stomach was still flat, but it felt amazing.

‘I’m pregnant…….’

To be honest, it didn’t feel real yet.

There wasn’t a hospital here like in Korea where she could confirm pregnancy herself.

But once she started feeling morning sickness and her belly grew, it would feel real.

As Ellie stared at her belly, Feroza asked,

“Ellie, what are you thinking?”

“Ah……. I know I’m pregnant, but it doesn’t feel real yet. And…….”

“And?”

“To be honest, I’m a little scared. Ever since I stopped taking birth control, I knew pregnancy was possible, but…….”

Feroza stayed quiet, waiting for her to finish.

“I’m not unhappy about having a child. This is a blessing for us. But I’m worried if I’ll be a good mother.”

Ellie sighed softly.

Feroza gently took both her hands.

“Ellie, you have me.”

“…….”

“We’ll do it together. If we study and work hard together, we’ll be good parents. You’re not alone, so don’t worry too much.”

His kind and sincere words brought tears to Ellie’s eyes.

She sniffled, and Feroza looked flustered.

“Why, why are you crying, Ellie? Did I say something wrong?”

“No……. I just love knowing I have someone completely on my side.”

Ellie smiled, her eyes damp.

Yes, just like Feroza said, as long as they moved forward together, everything would work out.

She gripped Feroza’s hand tightly and made a resolution.

To become the happiest family in the world.

“Let’s do our best, Feroza.”

“Of course.”

A novel doesn’t end with a happy ending—it continues on.

So her life would continue as well.

Until the day she took her last breath here, forever.
