The moment I checked my college entrance exam results and saw the word “Grade 1” written on the report card, I was shocked to the point where my breath momentarily stopped.

The highest grade I had ever received before was a meager Grade 4. But seeing Grade 1 in three subjects on my college entrance exam report card made me doubt if it was some kind of hallucination.

Even though I had the advantage of having a smart body owner and the support of the capable private tutor, Jumin Jung, getting a Grade 1 seemed too unbelievably good. I mean, I had expected the best I could do would be Grade 2 at most!

Anyway, for the next few days, I was in such a good mood that I felt like I was flying. I clung onto my husband and giggled, clung onto Minjeong and giggled, and clung onto my brother and mumbled. I even felt like I might have a serious problem due to my body acting strangely.

It wasn’t that I was sick, but my mood was so excessively good that it felt like adrenaline was rushing through me.

I wondered if it would affect Byul belatedly, but all I felt inside my belly was something squirming around, as usual.

Even the hospital assured me that the fetus was perfectly fine, even healthy.

Now, I thought that I could just live happily with my husband until the day Byul was born without any worries.

“You’ve worked hard coming all this way, Eunhye.”

“Oh, it’s been a while since we greeted each other. Grandfather…”

As I received an escort from my husband and was about to get out of the car, I was taken aback by the appearance of Grandfather coming out of the mansion, unable to hide my confusion as I greeted him.

I wanted to spend the day alone with my husband without being disturbed by anyone, but I ended up coming to this terrifying mansion due to the summons of my in-laws. I felt nothing but pressure just by looking at it.

If it was just for a day like before, I wouldn’t have been nervous, but I couldn’t refuse the urging of my in-laws who were worried about me, having repeatedly ruined my condition.

Ugh, does this mean I can’t do anything naughty for a while?

“Our youngest daughter-in-law is here? Oh, come on in, our daughter-in-law!”

Suddenly hearing my mother-in-law’s voice, I turned around in surprise, and my mother-in-law approached, waving her hand as if saying, “Over here, over here!”

But both Grandfather and Mother-in-law, standing boldly next to me, didn’t even pretend to acknowledge my husband. It’s really too much.

“Hello, Mother. Grandfather.”

“I’m always doing well. How come your complexion keeps getting better? Your skin is so radiant.”

“Hehehe, it’s all thanks to my husband~ Oh, ahem! Um… I’m really sorry, but I’ll be in your care for a while.”

“You don’t need to feel sorry… We’re family, there’s no need to apologize.”

My mother-in-law clapped her hands and laughed.

At first, she seemed wary of me, but now it’s a completely different story.

I’ve truly become their daughter-in-law.

“Mom, Grandfather. Instead of standing here, let’s go inside. Can’t you see my wife is tired?”

As my husband stepped forward and blocked the two people who kept talking, I felt grateful that he was taking care of me properly at such a time.

Well, it wasn’t because I kept standing that I was getting tired, but rather because I felt mentally exhausted from the burden of my mother-in-law and grandfather.

“Oh, come on, get a hold of yourself. Let’s go inside. Eunhye.”

“Yes! Excuse me.”

“He’s practically treating this place like your own home, why are you so nervous?”

Mother, this may not be my first visit, but…

This eerie mansion makes me feel nervous even if it’s the second or third time visiting.

And it’s nice that you’re doing well, but it’s a bit overwhelming!

“Do you want me to hold your hand if it’s hard to walk?”

“Yes! I want you to hold my hand!”

As I tightly held onto my husband’s hand, the tension that I felt just a moment ago seemed to melt away, and my steps became lighter.

The fluttering in my chest remained, but it was a gentle and warm flutter, not the suffocating one.

Just by holding hands, I could feel so relaxed. Even if I were to enter a tiger’s den, I wouldn’t be scared as long as my husband is by my side. I might even be able to win in a 1:6 fight against a tiger. Of course, I’m the 6.

“Here is the room where Eunhye Yang will be staying.”

Finally, my grandfather stopped in front of the massive door.

The servants around him opened the door, revealing the interior.

It was a room almost the size of our house. Inside, there was a large canopy bed even bigger than the one my husband and I shared, a cozy-looking rocking chair, a large wall-mounted TV, decorations and paintings that made the viewer feel comfortable… There was nothing missing in this room.

“If you need anything else, please don’t hesitate to ask. We will do our best to make your stay comfortable-”

“I’ll be staying in my husband’s room.”

Silence fell around me at my words. Everyone’s gaze turned towards me, speechless.

Why are they all like this when I said to ask if they need anything?

“Darling, I’ll be staying here too. Don’t be like that. You’ve prepared everything, so how can you refuse so easily?”

“Why? My husband’s room is much better than this one.”

When I answered loudly to my husband’s whisper, he awkwardly smiled and lowered his head.

My grandfather, my mother, even the servants, all seemed uncomfortable.

Did I make a mistake in what I said? Why is everyone looking like that?

“Father, Danni should have listened to what she said.”

As my mother spoke, my grandfather nodded without saying a word.

Eventually, the servants closed the door, and side by side, we walked towards the room my husband had been staying in.

*

“Of course, this is the best~”

The only room left for the two of us.

Escorted by my husband, I cautiously lay down on the bed.

It hadn’t been used for a long time, so there wasn’t much furniture, but I can guarantee that this is the most comfortable place in this house.

At least until next February, I’ll probably be living in debt, and if it weren’t for this room, I wouldn’t be able to endure it.

How can I live if I can’t breathe?

“Why do you like it here? There’s nothing here.”

“Hmm? There’s nothing? But you’re here.”

I poked my husband’s chest as he made a strange comment with a dry expression.

You’re right in front of me, how can there be nothing? And above all, this room is filled with your memories. Each piece of furniture must have traces of you, and just lying here quietly makes me feel at ease.

Understanding my intention, my husband blushed and froze in embarrassment.

Such a reaction to a small touch, how cute~

“Star, are you looking? This is where Dad used to stay when he was young.”

Ignoring the frozen husband for a moment, I spoke to my belly while touching it.

There’s a saying that the baby sees what the mother sees, and although I’m not sure if it’s true, I think it might be.

I want to believe it.

“And it’s also where Mom stole Dad’s first kiss.”

“Pfft!”

The frozen husband’s expression changed instantly, and he looked tormented.

“Cough, cough… Why are you telling me that?”

“Huh? It’s where mom and dad first shared their love, so it’s nice for Byul to know too.”

“L-Love…”

“You haven’t forgotten, have you? You crossed the line first, taking my first kiss, undressing me, and even groping my chest.”

As if the memories of that day came flooding back, the husband’s face turned as red as a jujube.

Don’t be embarrassed, I remember everything.

You, who made me unable to move with just a word of beauty, demanding my body with your lips on my chest. And

“How much it hurt me when you took my virginity that day…”

As I recalled the events of our first night together, a tingling sensation spread throughout my body.

To be precise, the areas where the husband grabbed, bit, and sucked, mainly my chest.

And even the subtle pains from the hidden cracks that were constantly violated can be felt.

“You tempt me like that, how can I resist?”

Suddenly uttering words with an unknown meaning, the husband leaned in closer.

Um, trying to hide the embarrassment by pretending to be nonchalant, but your face is still red. Husband.

You tempted me not to resist, but you don’t seem to understand, do you?

“So I couldn’t resist and gave in. I finished the job in just one go?”

Still speaking provocatively, the husband didn’t change his expression and continued with his next words.

“I could have done more. But who’s the one who completely lost it in just one go?”

Bam.

“T-This… this!! This man has no shame towards a pregnant woman!”

“Who brought it up first?”

Unable to bear the shame, my face flushed as I mercilessly hit the husband, venting my anger.

The husband, who accepted my meaningless violence without complaint, was equally heated, but despite receiving blows, a smile continued to linger on his lips, and I, watching him, felt the same way.

On that day, the sky outside the window felt unusually cozy.
