FIB Ch 18 part 2

A few months before she was to give birth, MoonWon remained diligent. Whenever someone told her she mustn’t overwork herself, MoonWon would claim that the doctor told her it was okay to take a walk as she moved around the bamboo grove.

When Heon saw that the inner residence was empty, he sighed.

“Where could she have gone without telling anyone?”

“She only told us that she’d take a walk and left with her sewing box.”

Even in the past, she liked to keep herself busy. There was no way she’d obediently stay in her room just because she was with child.

“Duke MyungHyun.”

As soon as he went outside, a man waiting for Heon lowered his head. It was one of the men that Doyoon had sent. When Heon saw him, he raised his hand, and the people following Heon went away.

“The number of people coming from SeoMoon to Ju is increasing. According to the reports, the Crown Prince claims he must wage war and is indiscriminately dragging the men away no matter their age.”

Having lost his mind, JaeHoon was moving without a care for SeoMoon’s circumstances.

Although there was a limit to how many people Ju could take in from SeoMoon, Heon could not send away the people who had escaped here for their lives.

“Let’s take them in for now. If we set up a base for them, they’ll take care of the rest.”

There was enough land around the bamboo grove to set up camps. Although it wouldn’t be much, these people had put their lives on the line to cross the border, so it would be enough to help them start a new life.

“I think it’ll be best to send His Majesty a report first.”

“His Majesty said that he would respect Duke MyungHyun’s decision and told me to do as you say, sir.”

When Heon heard this, he covered his eyes with his hand.

Hadn’t he told him to enjoy his position at the top and let the subordinates take care of everything? Now he was telling Heon that he’d do as he said and dumped all this work in his lap.

“Huu.”

What was the point of worrying about this until his head hurt? Heon was the one who had asked Doyoon to spare his life and bowed down to him.

“Just do as I say for now.”

The man lowered his head and disappeared. Left alone, Heon slowly walked alongside the walls of the residence.

A while later, Heon saw MoonWon. When he saw her, he stopped in his tracks. If he let his presence be known, he was sure she’d turn to him with a smile, but for now, he wanted to watch her for a little longer.

Although her swollen stomach brought her much discomfort, MoonWon was diligently making something with her hands. She was so focused on it that she didn’t notice Heon’s presence. When a breeze began to pass by, MoonWon stopped moving and held out her hand.

“When did you come?”

His mother, Consort Yu, had never smiled at him like this before. She only smiled when she wanted something. To her, Heon was a child who always seemed to bother her.

Even though he knew that she was different from Consort Yu, would their child give her a hard time? Although this wasn’t the case now, who knew how things would change in the future?

When MoonWon moved to get up, Heon approached her first.

“What is this?”

It was a piece of cloth that could be no bigger than the palm of Heon’s hand. There were a bunch of needles poking out from it. Seeing all the backstitching on the cloth, he looked at MoonWon in confusion.

MoonWon took the fabric back from Heon and held it up so that he could see it more clearly.

Because she didn’t want to ruin her hands with the stitching, Consort Yu had ordered Yusun to make all of Heon’s jeogoris when he was a child. He could already see how red and swollen MoonWon’s fingers were.

“I know I don’t have the best skills when it comes to sewing, but I wanted to make it myself.”

Having lost her entire family, the child would become her new family. Even if she couldn’t be the perfect mother, she still wanted to be the best mother she could be.

“Let me see. But don’t you think it’s too big?”

“It’s not. It’ll fit just right.”

As MoonWon continued to chatter on, her voice began to fill with excitement. Even as she continued to talk about the child with Heon, her hands continued to move busily across the fabric. Although things had quieted down and the days were filled with trivial matters, they weren’t bored or frustrated.

The peaceful life he could not have on his own was drawing close with MoonWon by his side.

Even though the sun was beginning to set, its rays continued to warm the spot MoonWon was sitting in. When MoonWon narrowed her eyes in the sunlight, Heon stood up.

She was grateful for the way Heon loved her so directly, and her heart fluttered. He treasured her more than she treasured herself, and she was so happy for it.

“Let’s go.”

MoonWon took Heon’s hand and smiled. At that moment, a wind blew through the grove and shook the bamboo trees. When MoonWon heard what sounded like the high-pitched laughter of a child, she smiled.

“Will our child laugh like that after they’re born?”

“I wish they’d be born soon.”

From what she’d heard from Yusun, Heon’s early childhood was not a happy time for him. Not enough time had passed for him to completely shake off the bad memories.

“I am a bit tired, but I don’t hate it. Actually, I’m really curious to see who they take after. I wonder if it’s a boy or a girl, and I also want to see what kind of child they’ll be.”

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s a boy or a girl.”

If it was a child given to him by MoonWon, he would treasure the son or daughter. They would grow up happy and upright.

Although he hadn’t grown up with loving parents, he wanted to be a good father for their child. If he was alone, it would be difficult, but MoonWon was by his side.

“Let’s head back to the inner residence.”

Although Heon didn’t say it, his face said it all.

Heon didn’t have an inferiority complex like JaeHoon, and he wasn’t someone trapped in the past. Rather than suffering from the wounds of the past, Heon was a man who changed himself.

MoonWon was eager to meet her child. She was also worried about being a good mother, but she didn’t voice these concerns.

If she was with Heon, she could do well. Even if she became like Consort Yu and ended up making the wrong choice, Heon would catch her and guide her along the right path.

Heon followed alongside her, matching her slow pace. MoonWon leaned against him as they walked together.

As autumn passed by and the weather grew cold, winter finally arrived, and MoonWon began to experience labor pains. The contractions began in the middle of the night and continued on after the sun came up.

MoonWon, who usually never admitted she was having a difficult time, began to cry out in pain. Whenever the midwife urged her to push, a cry tore out of her throat, and whenever Heon heard this, he felt like his blood was running dry.

“Master, the wind is cold, so why don’t you go inside and…”

Junghwan repeated this for the seventh time, but he quickly lowered his head. Ever since MoonWon’s contractions had started, Heon waited outside and did not move. Just standing in the cold wind for a brief moment made one want to cover their face, but Heon merely glared at the room MoonWon was in.

“Huu.”

After two hours of silence, Heon finally let out a sigh.

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

Whenever he heard MoonWon’s strained breaths, his heart sank and his blood turned to ice. If he had known that it would be that painful for her to give birth to a child, he never would have gotten her pregnant in the first place.

“Mistress, you must push a little more!”

For the best reading experience, visit lilyonthevalley.com

Just how much more trouble was that child going to bring its own mother? The midwife merely urged MoonWon to push harder and harder.

What had his father been thinking when he was being born? How had he managed to endure this? The thought disappeared when he heard MoonWon’s groan. He couldn’t think straight right now.

Even when the sun had reached its peak, nothing seemed to have changed. What if something happened to MoonWon? Why had he created this problem by insisting on having a child?!

“Mistress!”

He heard the midwife’s voice, but strangely, he couldn’t hear MoonWon’s cries. The sun finally began to set. Just how many hours was this going to take?

He was told it was bad luck for a man to enter the birthing chambers. However, when he heard Yeori and Yusun urge MoonWon to wake up, that thought completely vanished from his mind.

“Aigoo!”

“Master!”

Heon opened the door and entered the room. The scene inside the room was a lot more shocking than he’d expected. MoonWon had let go of the strips of cloth¹ and her arms were limp in its loops.

She was still panting for breath, but she was in terrible condition. Judging from the fact that she was drenched in sweat, she looked to be in critical condition.

“M-Master!”

“Are you trying to kill her?!”

Flustered by Heon’s angry roar, the midwife quickly pulled herself together. Although the master of the bamboo grove was a scary man, he treasured the Mistress like no other. If something happened to MoonWon, she wasn’t sure what would happen to her own life. The midwife hurriedly responded.

“If she faints from exhaustion due to a long delivery, it will not be good for the mother nor the child. We must wake up the Mistress as soon as possible. Why don’t you send the Master outside for now, and… Master!”

Instead of exiting the room, Heon moved over to MoonWon’s head and grasped the hand that seemed to be hanging from the cloth. When she felt Heon’s cold hand, MoonWon barely managed to open her eyes.

“Hus…band.”

Even though MoonWon did not awaken even when the others had slapped her cheeks, she opened her eyes as soon as she felt Heon’s presence. Not wanting to miss this chance, the midwife began to press MoonWon again.

“Mistress! You must push a little more!”

There was no time to worry about Heon being in the birthing room. When she heard the midwife’s pleas, MoonWon tightened her grasp on Heon’s hand and pushed. Even though MoonWon’s fingernails dug into Heon’s skin, he did not frown in pain. Instead, he gave her his other hand to hold as well.

Time flowed by so slowly. MoonWon’s moans mixed in with the midwife’s voice, and when the midwife announced that she could see the child’s head, everyone grew restless. 

The moment everyone had been waiting for had finally arrived. The cries of a child rang in the air.

“It’s a boy, Master!”

Yusun was happy to see that it was a boy who would continue the family line, but for Heon, his first priority was not his son but his exhausted wife.

As MoonWon lay comfortably on the bedding, Heon wiped away the beads of sweat on her face. As if the cuts from MoonWon’s fingernails didn’t exist, Heon continued to worriedly observe MoonWon’s condition. When he confirmed that she was okay, he finally began to press a cotton cloth on his wounds.

“Master, you should hold him.”

Heon was still not happy with the child for giving its mother such a hard time. However, when he looked into the baby’s eyes, he gasped.

The culprit for MoonWon’s suffering looked so fragile that he seemed like he’d shatter at the slightest touch. When he saw his son, the resentment melted away like snow.

Even though she knew what Heon was thinking, Yusun feigned ignorance and put the baby in Heon’s arms. When he felt the weight of the child, his shoulders tensed.

He gazed at the squirming child. He looked a lot like MoonWon. He wouldn’t even dream of hurting this child.

“Take him, Yusun.”

Seeing that he was afraid of dropping the child, Yusun took him from Heon. For a long time, Heon was unable to tear his eyes away from the baby. He turned his focus back onto MoonWon and wrapped his hand around her cheek. MoonWon barely managed to open her eyes.

Although she claimed she wanted to see the child, her eyes would not open. Her entire body was throbbing, and she could barely stay awake. However, during the scariest time, Heon had stayed with her.

“Give him here.”

Still wet from his bath, the baby began to squirm. Seeing this, Heon approached them. Even if it was merely random movements of a newborn, Yuha smiled very often and seemed to be a happy baby. Refreshed after his bath, he began to wave his hand from within MoonWon’s arms.

“I can do it.”

“It’s okay.”

When Heon took the baby, MoonWon ordered a servant to take the bath away. MoonWon’s front was completely wet from giving Yuha his bath, but instead of changing, she went to Heon.

Heon laid the baby down on the bed and began to dry him with a cloth. Because he did this regularly with MoonWon, his hands moved quickly.

Although he tried to clothe the baby, the baby kept squirming, so it was a difficult task. When he pulled the baby’s right arm through the sleeve and moved on to the left, he’d come back to see that the baby had pulled out his right arm.

When Heon saw her untie her top and offer her breast to Yuha, he sighed. Even though they received help from Yusun and Yeori, MoonWon was Yuha’s main caregiver.

Although their beautiful time with Yuha seemed to pass by so quickly, Heon couldn’t help but feel jealous now that MoonWon’s undivided attention was split between him and Yuha.

To think that he was jealous of a baby who was not yet a year old. Although it was ridiculous, Heon couldn’t help but feel cranky as he watched MoonWon forget about him as she fed Yuha.

Feeling the unfamiliar intrusion, her walls squeezed around him. Every time Heon’s finger moved, a wave of clear fluid drenched her entrance. After teasing her with his cock a few times, Heon thrust himself in to the hilt.
