Became the Escort Knight of the Villain in the Romance Novel - Chapter 114
114 – Smoothly (4)
It was a quiet afternoon.
Sipping a cup of tea in the slightly chilly weather as winter has just entered.
Evan faced Chris alone after a long time. It was quite awkward to see him retired and not wearing a uniform,
Contrary to his usual serious expression, Evan quietly laughed at his smiling face.
“You look good.”
“Good. Because there is nothing to worry about.”
Chris smiled broadly and tipped the cooling tea to his lips.
It was Darjeeling, and Chris looked at Evan with a corner of his mouth at the face of a person who suddenly came to mind.
The dark face from when we first met has completely disappeared, and for the first time, isn’t it a face that looks like a human?
What kind of change of heart did you have that day?
Chris, who recalled the image of Evan who had completely changed for some reason, slowly opened his mouth.
“I’m asking because I’m retired. Why did you suddenly change so much?”
“Suddenly changed?”
“As far as I remember, my complexion was pale even before I became an escort driver, but from one day my complexion suddenly brightened. Even before that, I thought you were about to die because the guy who used to tickle and tickle at Rize smiled and smiled.”
“It wasn’t tick-tick, it just felt really good at that time… huh?”
Evan frowned slightly at the memories running through his mind.
It was because the memories that I hadn’t been able to recall originally came to my mind, even before I possessed them, so I remembered a little bit of what Chris said at the time.
But how does she know this herself?
Without the slightest awkwardness, Evan opened his mouth in a daze at the memories that came back as if they were there originally, and Chris laughed at Evan.
“Why are you making such a stupid face all of a sudden? If you can’t remember, just say you can’t.”
“Yeah…I don’t remember.”
Evan smiled awkwardly.
The fragments of memories suddenly revived confused my head, but isn’t it something to worry about now?
But why did the memories before being possessed come to mind like this?
I couldn’t figure it out, so I couldn’t stop the question from arising.
As Evan fell silent in her thoughts, Chris, who emptied her teacup and clicked her tongue, leaned back in her chair and bent her neck.
Ddu-Duk- While I was a bit surprised by the sound coming from my throat, I felt a subtle feeling at the thought that I didn’t have to worry too much about this now.
Should I be happy about this, or should I say that I am relieved?
If you were a knight who always worked hard on taking care of your body, you would have tried to get your body back to normal somehow, but
For now, I was just accepting that my body was getting old.
The sky where the sunset is slowly setting,
Chris, who frowned at her, grumbled softly as white clouds passed by in the sky dyed red.
Doesn’t it seem like something is about to happen? I didn’t think anything bad would happen,
Her shoulders trembled as she felt that something big was about to happen.
And for a while, around the time when the sunset slowly faded and the sky turned black.
“Knight! Knight!”
Hearing Lopena’s voice screaming urgently from far away, Evan raised her head. She
She was the only person to be called a knight, so she was only herself,
At that voice, Evan’s expression subtly changed as he checked Lopena’s face.
Unlike usual, he had a very serious expression. It was the first time Lofena made such an expression,
As her Evan asked Pena, Pena stamped her feet and grabbed her Evan’s wrist.
“Chris will come a little later. Hurry up from the driver! It’s a lady thing!”
“Is something wrong? Please explain.”
“No, I can’t explain it here. Come quickly.”
What happened all of a sudden?
Evan, guided by Lopena’s hand, heads to a dark, deserted hallway.
She opened her mouth towards Lopena, who was hesitantly staring at herself.
“You say it’s a lady’s business, why are you here-“
“I think you are pregnant, my lady.”
“…What?”
Doubting his own ears for a moment, Evan let out an empty laugh.
Pregnancy means that, in other words, he is the father himself.
It was only one night.
Wouldn’t it be just one night where we borrowed alcohol and gathered a little courage to confirm each other’s feelings?
Pregnant with just that once. However, despite Evan’s laughter, Lopena’s expression did not change.
Rather, she held Evan’s hand tightly and opened her mouth with a serious expression.
“…Please stay by my lady. It’s not a joke.”
Would it feel like this if the whole world turned white in an instant?
Evan, who was absent-mindedly leaning against the wall and sweeping his face,
As soon as she came to her senses, she started running towards the room where Irene was.
#
“Irene!”
When Evan hurriedly opened the door, what he saw was Irene smiling lightly at Evan.
She doesn’t seem upset in the slightest, and doesn’t seem disturbed in the slightest.
Irene, who always had the same expression, smiled quietly at Evan.
“Are you here?”
“I- no, I… Heard from Lopena. Are you sure?”
“Okay. Maybe a doctor will come to confirm it, but I think it’s probably right.”
Irene’s hand was on her stomach, which was not yet swollen.
Being pregnant, she’s never seriously thought about anything like that.
She was stunned by her sudden pregnancy, and so was Irene.
How many people in the world can immediately realize that life resides in this belly?
On the contrary, it was Evan who was even more flustered,
Laughing at Evan like that, Irene sat down on her bed and tapped the seat next to him with her hand.
“Come and sit down. Because we have a lot to talk about.”
“Are you okay? I should have been a little more careful.”
“Why are you apologizing to me? It was me who kept Evan from sleeping while he was trying to rest.”
Stunned by those words, Evan slowly sat down beside her while looking at Irene.
She didn’t know what to say. Should I be happy about this sudden relationship?
Or she just can’t figure out what to do.
Evan quietly held her breath as he placed her hand on her Irene’s stomach.
“It hasn’t blown up yet. If she was pregnant at that time… It would only be about a month.”
“……”
Evan, staring blankly at her helpless palm, recalled the past.
To be precise, she was the existence of a father she had experienced throughout her life.
I wasn’t a good person. No, no one would say he is a good father.
Her own father was a bitter man.
Since she found out that she was talented at the piano, she didn’t even let her brother meet easily,
He planted only the piano in his head and it was his father who imprisoned him in the world of music.
She was not loved, so she decided not to be.
He himself would not live like his father, so he poured out unreceived love to his younger brother.
However, time passed and the world we lived in changed.
He fell in love with a woman named Irene, and now he is expected to be the father of a child.
My father. Evan was afraid. He fears that he too will be like his father.
I was afraid of this unknown blessing that came without even giving me time to prepare.
Couldn’t I have given Irene too much of a burden? Why hadn’t she noticed this sooner?
I just felt pathetic. A trembling finger touched Evan’s eyes.
The hand turned pale as it descended slowly, with cold breath.
“Irene.”
Even if I tried to continue, I couldn’t bear to continue.
The words that had risen to the bottom of his chin caught on his chest and stopped coming out.
The open mouth moves with a pouting motion, just conveying that there is something to say.
Various emotions fluctuated in my heart, and eventually my swaying eyes began to get wet little by little.
I was happy. I was afraid, but how could I not be happy about this?
Although there was an instinctive fear inherited from the existence of a father that I had experienced before.
Evan was delighted with this work. Will he be a good father?
And now, about the one woman, Irene, whom she is responsible for, can she make herself happy?
Amidst many doubts, Evan finally smiled faintly.
The responsibility on his shoulders was much heavier than before,
The thought of impregnating Irene took Evan’s breath away.
However, if there is a fact that she does not change.
From noble mtl dot com
Evan acknowledged her feelings welling up in a corner of her heart.
Feeling happy, right now. She says she’s feeling happiness she’s never felt before.
Perhaps if Irene was sad, Irene was also smiling quietly while holding Evan’s hand.
When Evan raised her head, Irene and Evan’s eyes met, as she had been looking at her all along.
A lot of thoughts went through my mind. The moment we first met each other’s eyes.
In this room, Evan was on her knees and Irene was looking down at Evan.
From what moment? The moment she chased these green eyes all the time.
Irene smiled and brushed Evan’s cheek.
The tears that had been flowing from earlier wet Evan’s cheeks and touched his neck.
“Are you sad?”
“…That can’t be.”
“Then why are you crying? It’s a good day.”
Holding Irene’s hand, Evan quietly laughed as he wiped away her tears.
If you ask me why I cry, I wonder if it is because I have complicated emotions.
To be precise, I was just crying because I was happy.
This reality, this fruition tickled her heart.
Contrary to the pulled corners of her mouth, her eyes kept getting wet.
It was an indescribable feeling, and it was the first feeling I experienced in my life.
It was a good day. I can’t even express how good it is.
Evan, held in Irene’s arms, heard Irene’s heartbeat.
Pounding – When the sound of regular beating came to Evan’s ears,
Evan looked at the ring on Irene’s hand with her narrow eyes.
She never thought she would have to change it so quickly. What would the craftsman who made her ring think?
Remembering the word marriage, Evan smiled again in Irene’s arms.
I didn’t mean to tell you right now. If the immediate threat of extinction disappears…
If everything goes back to its place peacefully, then I wanted to say.
I don’t know how long it will take, but at least before the baby in my belly is born.
“…It would be funny if I wasn’t pregnant. It’s like the two of us were excited.”
“How could that be?”
If I hadn’t been pregnant, I wouldn’t have felt this way.
The moment I saw Irene, I heard the confidence, emotion,
This hot feeling that still fills up inside of me was obviously because Irene was pregnant.
It was just a guess, but Evan was convinced. The two people’s child, now ‘our’ child is in this belly.
Evan got out of Irene’s arms and hugged her.
As we patted each other on the back, we felt each other’s body temperature without saying anything.
What is needed at this moment is not a single word, but just each other’s existence.
Because it was the fact that only two people existed in this small space.
Irene and Evan both focused on feeling each other, erasing her thoughts.
Irene was also nervous.
Because she was the one who knew best that her body had changed in many ways lately.
I’m sorry that I finally felt that there was something in my stomach, but
I didn’t think it was an illusion. I still haven’t realized it yet, but
It was clear that the long bond between the two people, Evan and Irene, had finally become thicker.
A very thick red thread that can no longer be cut.
Are you the only one who feels relieved by that fact? The two of them stopped embracing and their foreheads slightly touched.
Listening to the sound of breathing, the hands placed on the chest felt each other’s pulsation.
I can breathe. Warm, sometimes cool.
When their noses collided with the irregular breathing, the two smiled as if they had promised.
“For the rest of my life… I didn’t know that this was what it meant to remain as an escort driver.”
“That’s right.”
Seeing Evan’s eyes, Irene somehow recalled her memories of last winter.
She remembers that she practiced smiling at his words, saying that she wanted him to smile right away as a present for her birthday.
She was injured fighting a warlock and she remembers bruising him. In the winter when her first snow fell,
She remembers that she will remain by her side as her escort knight.
Evan also recalled the same memories, and the eyes of the two held the same scenery.
The slowly touching lips lightly pass by. Suddenly, the lips that first touched fell apart.
As we held each other’s chins gently, we put our foreheads together again, brushing our hair.
The rough texture, the tightly closed eyes curved like a crescent moon.
The lips touched for the second time are a little darker than before.
When the lips that had been in contact for a long time fell together with a white skein,
Irene laughed bashfully, buried her face in Evan’s chest, and her shoulders trembled.
Hook – The blowing wind covered the white snow. A cold wind, the first snow of winter.
First time, first time again. It was the first snow a little earlier than the first snow four years ago.
The two people who recalled the same memories recalled the excitement of that time.
Emotions that she could feel because she was not yet aware of her heart,
Because now we are lovers. And again, reflecting on the sticky feelings you can feel in a relationship that goes up.
Took-
The third time the lips touched, they did not come off any more.
Softly intertwined tongues joined each other. Clasp hands intertwined,
The strength of those nails made them white.
When the lips that touched each other for a long time left fingernail marks on your hands,
Evan and Irene looked at each other as they exhaled with difficulty.
“…I was thinking about a birthday present.”
At Irene’s words, Evan shrugged her shoulders and replied.
“An unforgettable gift.”
“A lifetime?”
“…For life.”
This time was sure to pass. Just as this moment when the first snow falls will end someday,
Wouldn’t there come a day when it remains in a corner of my memory and is mixed with other memories?
However, she later remembered, she would never forget her twentieth birthday.
Evan, who had a slightly more relaxed expression than before, smiled lightly.
“By the way, what should I call Evan now?”
“You mean your title?”
“To call him… You can’t simply call him a lover anymore.”
Evan staring at herself and Irene, who met her gaze,
She then put her finger on her chin and smiled briskly as she pretended to be thinking hard.
Then she cupped her slightly flushed cheeks with her two hands, slightly avoiding Evan’s gaze as she cautiously parted her lips.
“…Honey?”
As Evan blankly opened her mouth, Irene twisted her white hair with her fingers and opened her mouth again.
As if a little embarrassed, her flushed cheeks were slightly more red than before.
“Should I call you Honey…?”
Kungkung-
Evan’s heart started beating faster than ever.
#
On the day her first snow fell, the news that Juris’ cow was pregnant reached everyone except her duke.
The doctor confirmed Irene’s pregnancy, She
She made Evan’s face pale when she brought out her words that they might be twins.
Her ladies-in-waiting envied Irene,
All the knights who were friends with Evan criticized him.
In the end, it didn’t change that everyone sincerely congratulated the two.
The blessing of a new life, and the bond between two people who finally came together.
People were sincerely congratulating me.
