《I Am The Evil Duchess》XIX

─────∘◦ ✾ ◦∘─────
I opened my eyes, the familiar pale yellow ceiling greeted me. I groaned when I felt my head throb. But then I realized that I don't have such extravagant ceilings. Only then that I recalled what happened last night.
I quickly touched my belly to make sure that my baby is still inside. I heave a sigh of relief as I gently rub my big tummy.
He's still here, my baby...
My mood lightened up as I rub my tummy and I started to hum. It's something that I don't usually do, maybe it's because of my pregnancy.
Suddenly, the door of my room burst open.
"M-Madame!"
It was Jennie, her eyes were trembling as tears started to form in her eyes.
"It's good to see you, Jennie." I smiled at her. But she didn't smile back instead she finally started sobbing.
"How can you smile at me like that when you suddenly left the Duchy without informing me! Not only that! You were heavy with a child! You should've taken me with you so I can take care of you and the baby!"
Her sobbing became louder and it makes me feel bad.
"I'm sorry, but I can't just take you with me. I know that you're supporting your family, I don't want to be a burden for you as well."
"Even so! I want to take care of the lady..."
I sighed, I got up from the bed and walk towards her. She was rather confused when I got close to her. But I only smile at her and then I hugged her.
"My lady..."
"I'm truly sorry for not thinking of what you'd feel when I left. I thought that you'll have nothing if you come with me, I am nothing but a commoner so what is the point of dragging someone with me? That is why I chose to leave the Duchy by myself."

She sobbed as she hugged me back.
"I thought that His Grace had already divorced you that's why you suddenly left."
"He didn't?"
"He did not My Lady, but rumors circulated the whole capital that My Lady and His Grace are preparing for a divorce. Don't you know how miserable the whole Duchy is the moment you left? Especially Young Master Calix and The Duke."
"Why? What happened?"
"Young Master Calix attempted to look for you, so he ran away from the Duchy. This made the Duke a little bit furious so he forbid the Young Master to step out of his room. The Duke, can't sleep at night. He even had to contact a priest in the middle of the night to cast a divine spell on him so he could sleep even if it was just an hour."
It seems like a lot had happened when I left.
"Where is the Duke?" I asked, but then Jennie frowned at me before pointing at the bed behind me.
There I saw Regan, he was sleeping beside me all this time.
"When His Grace returned, he was carrying you in his arms. His face was dark and he didn't say anything. He just went inside of your room with you in his arms."
"Then, this dress..."
"It must be the Duke who changed you into that dress."
I blushed, I told Jennie to quickly prepare breakfast for two. I'm sure she noticed my red face but she decided to leave it be.
I climbed onto the bed and stared at my husband. The last time I had a good look on his face was the time when I left him in this same room.
Regan was truly handsome. He looks like a prince in a fairy tale, his shiny white hair. And his thin lips.

I touched his bangs, his hair looks like a shiny thread, it was also smooth. Then next is his lips, my favorite part of his face. It can get you addicted to it if you tasted it once.
And his pale gold eyes... I always get drowned in them whenever I look at them...
Wait...
Eyes?
Only then did I realize that He was already awake.
"I'm---"
I got cut off when he suddenly hugged me, burying his face in my breasts.
"Where do you think you buried your face?" Because of pregnancy, my breast got larger than their usual size.
"Hmm" he just hummed but he didn't move away.
We changed positions, he let me lean my back on his chest as he adjusted me between his legs.
"We'll have a son..."
I got surprised so I looked at him "What? How can you say so?"
"I just know. I hope he looks like you." He said.
Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you but he'll look just exactly like you...
I sighed
"What is with that sigh?"
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking why you want me back when you hate me."
I felt him flinch behind me, so I rolled my eyes. Bullseye
"When did I say that I hate you?"
"Try asking that yourself My Duke, actions speak louder than words."
He gulped and he slightly tightened his arms around me, it's as if I'll flee if he loses his grip around me.
"I-It's not like that wife... Well, I did hate you at first, but now I love you."
Frowning, I elbowed his gut.
"Ugh!" He groaned.
"Just because I came back with you, it doesn't mean that I already forgave you."
I slapped his arms away and I supported my belly while escaping the bedroom, he let me move away from the bed but he quickly moves towards me when he notices that I was catching my breath.
It was also hard for me during this time because little movements can make me tired and I often have shortness of breath.
He accompanied me to the living room.
"Are you okay?" I glared at him before rolling my eyes.
"What do you think."
He didn't say anything and he just sat beside me. "Can I hug you?"
I turn to face him, he was wearing a face that says "she'll bite if I do things as I please".
"No."
I saw how he bit his lower lip and withdraw his hands that wanted to hug me.
The door opened and Jennie went inside with the breakfast I told her to bring. I was happy, not until I saw the dish.
A fish soup...
I quickly frowned and buried my face in the crook of Regan's neck, inhaling his scent instead of the foul stench of the fish.
"Quickly send those soup away," I told him, he nodded to Jennie.
"Are you allergic to soups?" He asked but I shook my head.
"The moment I found out about my pregnancy, I suddenly became allergic to kinds of seafood, I can't bear the smell of them and it makes my stomach turn."
He can only stare at me while hugging me...
The next day, seafoods were banned in the Duchy
