Side Story Chapter 4

It was a warm afternoon when the children had fallen asleep for their nap.

Baroness Larissa Hyuge received a small box as a gift from her cousin, Viviana. Glancing at the sender’s seal, she shrugged.

‘That’s unlike Viviana.’

Though they were cousins, the two weren’t particularly close. They had gotten along fairly well as children, but once Viviana went to live with the Fortuna ducal house under the pretext of bridal training, their contact naturally faded. They met again only years later at Viviana’s wedding.

‘It was surprising how warmly she welcomed me.’

Could it be that living away from home had made her start missing her relatives, too?

‘That makes sense. The Fortuna ducal house is famous for its old-fashioned family traditions.’

Even Baroness Lorentz had fumed, saying, “She may be about to become a duchess, but how could they keep me from seeing my own daughter?”

‘Still, I was glad to see she looked happy. I’d thought she was probably living a vaguely stifled, joyless life.’

The Duke’s heir, whom she had expected to be a stodgy, old-fashioned bore, turned out to be a handsome young man, solidly built with delicate features. He and the fairy-like Viviana made a perfectly matched pair.

‘Besides, this isn’t the time for me to be worrying about someone else.’

Larissa let out a deep sigh. Before opening the box, she opened the card that had been attached to the outside.

The handwriting on the card was neat.

—To my dearest cousin, Larissa.

Thanks to you, I was able to have an honest conversation with my fiancé. If it hadn’t been for you, we might never have been able to marry. I’ve enclosed a small gift as a token of my gratitude.

Thank you sincerely, Viviana.

What made Larissa tilt her head in curiosity was the phrase ‘thanks to you’ in the concise letter.

‘What on earth did I do? That was the first time I met the Duke’s heir.’

In truth, she had been so nervous about attending the Duke’s family wedding that she could hardly remember what had happened that day.

‘Could it be that I acted like a meddling fool by giving unsolicited advice about marital matters?’

She paused to think it over, but no such words came to mind. Larissa let out a soft laugh.

‘Right. I wouldn’t meddle in anyone’s business like that.'

She had her own problems to deal with. 

Anyway, Larissa was happy that Viviana had sent her a gift. Ever since the twins were born, everyone had only been giving gifts to the children, so the very fact that a present was meant for her warmed her heart.

‘I should send a gift in return.’

Smiling contentedly, Larissa opened the box. But when she saw the item inside, she went pale and accidentally dropped it.

“Go-good heavens! What is this?!”

The box overturned, and the objects inside spilled out all at once. Among them, a long, thick object, like a cucumber, started wriggling about.

Bzzzzzz!

Larissa was, of course, horrified.

‘It even vibrates!’

Its shape was unmistakable, so she knew at once what kind of item it was. It was a masturbation tool.

Even after carefully picking it up, Larissa didn’t know how to turn off the vibration and broke out in a cold sweat for a while. Finally, with the dildo quiet, she slid it back into the box and let out a sigh.

“Where on earth did she even get this?”

The other items inside were difficult to identify in terms of their purpose: a thin rod twisted in a spiral shape, something that looked like a round egg, a thick C-shaped ring, and so on.

But thanks to the dildo, she could tell that all of these were adult toys.

Larissa let out a deep sigh as she looked around, wondering what on earth these things were for.

“…Could she have noticed something back then?”

In fact, ever since giving birth to the twins, Larissa had been distant from her husband.

The problem was that her husband had witnessed the delivery of the twins.

‘He said he felt repulsed because I looked too distressed while giving birth.’

She had only asked him to be there to share the experience, and so he, as the father, could cut the umbilical cord and feel a stronger sense of paternal love. She never imagined that, after seeing it, he would go pale and completely refuse to have sex with her.

[It would be best to keep some distance for a while.]

After saying that, her husband ran off, and his face looked so pale that Larissa couldn’t bring herself to stop him.

She assumed that he would probably forget and return to normal when the time was right, and that it would be fine once the children grew a little older.

However, just like that, a new year had already begun.

At first, Larissa had waited patiently, but now anger surged within her.

‘I’m the one who gave birth to the twins, feeling the real, flesh-tearing pain. So what reason do you have to feel repulsed?! I bled, I endured the pain!’

Giving birth to the twins was excruciating. Her stomach ached as if it were about to burst, yet the midwife kept telling her to push downward. The smell of amniotic fluid was sharp and metallic… When the first baby’s head emerged, her torn perineum spoke for itself. Childbirth was so painful and gruelling that even when they stitched her up without anesthesia afterwards, she could hardly feel it.

She, who had endured all of that herself, didn’t refuse intimacy. Yet her husband, who had only watched from the side, was the one rejecting her?

‘This is just too much.’

Raking her hair in frustration, Larissa suddenly lifted her head.

'That’s right! I’m still young, so why should I sit around like a widow? I’m going to enjoy everything I want!'

Moreover, right there in front of her eyes was a dildo, complete with a buzzing vibration function!

‘Yeah. This isn’t about cheating or anything. It’s just to satisfy my own desire.’

There was no need to feel guilty about it.

Larissa picked up the dildo she had previously shoved back into the box.

✦ ✦ ✦

It had already been a month since the suspicious gift from Viviana had arrived.

Baron Hyuge, Larissa’s husband, paced the corridor with an uneasy expression.

‘My wife is acting strange.’

Like other nobles, their marriage had been arranged strictly according to their elders’ wishes, but the two were well-matched in both personality and intimacy. True to his appearance, he was timid and fainthearted, while Larissa, as her looks suggested, was bold and lively.

‘She’s a woman who complements my shortcomings well.’

If Larissa hadn’t actively taken the lead in their marital life, the introverted Baron Hyuge might still have only held her hand in bed.

[We’re newlyweds! We should be doing it at least three times a week.]

[You’re slim, but your thing is surprisingly big.]

[Yes! Do it harder!]

The two shared a passionate love, ill-suited for an arranged marriage, and as a result, were blessed with beloved twins so charming they could melt anyone's heart

But neither of them ever imagined that those twins would cause problems in what had been a happy marriage.

‘I really thought my wife was going to die.’

The delivery room was utter chaos. Seeing his wife strain with all her strength, her face flushed red, gritting her teeth in sheer agony, was unbearably heartrending, and he felt sorrow himself. Yet even if he wanted to share her pain, there was no way to do so.

Even if she had met with an unexpected accident right there, there would have been nothing he could have done.

That realisation filled the baron with a deep sense of helplessness.

And when, sixty days after giving birth, Larissa asked to resume their marital relations, that helplessness had turned into fear.

‘If we have sex again, another baby could be born, right?’

‘You’re telling me to let you go through that childbirth ordeal all over again?’ 

‘I can’t do that!’

Baron Hyuge ended up fleeing in a pathetic manner. After that, Larissa tried several times to initiate sex, but whenever the mood started to turn that way, Baron Hyuge would hastily run off to avoid the situation.

Of course, even as he avoided her, Baron Hyuge’s heart was not at peace.

‘At this rate, my wife will end up resenting me.’

There were couples around him who had divorced because they no longer had marital relations. A wave of anxiety swept over him at the thought that his wife might leave him, too.

However, at the same time, he felt a bittersweet joy in knowing that she still desired him.

Conflicting emotions spun around inside him, but the one that gained the upper hand was anxiety.

Because, at some point, Larissa stopped making any suggestive demands of him. In fact, she even seemed perfectly content without him.

‘I can’t live without my wife.’

The thought that she might one day decide such a useless husband wasn’t worth keeping crossed his mind, and yet, the idea of being abandoned by her tore his heart to shreds.

Unable to do this or that, Baron Hyuge paced back and forth in front of Larissa’s door. But then, from the room where she was supposed to be alone, he heard a strange sound.

‘A moan?’

A small, faint sound, like a kitten mewling in pain, came from the room.

‘Could she be in pain?’

‘That mustn’t happen!’

Unable to bear the thought of his wife being in pain, Baron Hyuge opened the door.

However, Larissa was lying on her bed, dressed comfortably in her pyjamas.

Baron Hyuge, who had been rushing toward Larissa, came to an abrupt halt when he belatedly took in her situation.

Larissa was holding a long rod in one hand, pressing it against her groin.

Bzzzt.

The rod wriggled, emitting a faint vibrating sound.

‘What is that?’

Baron Hyuge stared wide-eyed at the object he had never seen before.

The tip of the dildo was pressed against Larissa’s clitoris. When the toy, soaked with her arousal, was pressed there and buzzed against it, her entire body shuddered.

Her legs spread in an M-shape, revealing her reddened pussy parting slightly. Through the gap, clear fluid trickled out, a sight that was intensely erotic.

Baron Hyuge couldn’t take his eyes off her reddened pussy, as if spellbound.

“Ahnng, anghh…”

Letting out soft moans as she rocked her hips, Larissa shifted her grip on the dildo. And then…

“Ah!”

The wriggling dildo slowly pushed its way inside her pussy.

She swallowed the hard dildo, her inner walls tightening around it as if engulfing a real penis. Ironically, its dark colour made the sight of it sliding into her reddened opening feel all the more sinful.

“Ah! Ahhhh! Ah!”

Larissa began moving her hands in earnest. The wet, slapping sounds grew louder and more intense.

“Ahng!”

Her waist arched in a smooth curve as a clear liquid spurted from her pussy. Even after releasing the sticky fluid, her pelvis continued to tremble in spasms.

She reached her climax.

Her flushed face was as alluring as a rose. At the strange stimulus he encountered after a long time, Baron Hyuge’s Adam’s apple bobbed noticeably.

“Haa. Haa.”

Breathing heavily, Larissa switched off the vibrator. The wriggling dildo, which had continued moving after her climax, finally stopped.

Larissa exhaled and lifted herself up. She then began to slowly withdraw the dildo, when…

“It’s still not enough, right?”

“Gah!”

At the sound of Baron Hyuge’s voice, Larissa froze, her eyes widening like a startled rabbit. Baron Hyuge walked toward her with heavy, thudding steps and abruptly yanked the dildo out.

“Ahng!”

With a squelching sound, the dildo was pulled out, leaving a long silver thread trailing behind.

“Chris!”

Startled, Larissa cried out Baron Hyuge’s name. The baron braced a knee between her legs, taking his place. Larissa’s face flushed bright red as she protested.

“Wh-what are you doing all of a sudden?! You startled me.”

“Wife.”

Caught by her husband while masturbating, Larissa wished she could crawl into a hole. Overcome with shame, she raised her voice instead.

“You don’t want to have sex with me. So why are you sitting here? Go away!”

She pushed against Baron Hyuge’s chest with both hands, but he didn’t budge. His composed, scholarly face met Larissa’s gaze squarely.

“I didn’t realise my wife was suffering so much from desire.”

“W-what? N-no! I was managing perfectly fine on my own! So… kyaa!”

As Larissa fell backward, she landed on the bed with a thud. Holding her thighs firmly, Baron Hyuge pressed his lips to her pussy without hesitation.

“Gasp!”

Seeing a clean-cut face that seemed to have only ever studied, licking her pussy was intensely arousing. His pointed tongue licked and sucked at her clitoris, and each time, the sharp sensation shook her mind.

‘What’s going on all of a sudden?’

Chris Hyuge had always been extremely passive in sexual matters. Larissa had kissed his neck and sucked on his flat chest before, but for this man to take the initiative and start caressing her like this? It was the first time anything like this had happened since they became a married couple.

The man sucked her sensitive spots as if using a straw, then probed her with his tongue. From the place that had just been penetrated by the dildo, her tangy arousal leaked out, sticky and glistening.

His tongue slid deep into her slick, yielding inner walls. It wasn’t thick or firm like a penis, but the mental stimulation was far more intense. Larissa cried out, gripping Baron Hyuge’s head with both hands and tugging at his hair.

“Stop it! Stop! Stop!”

His teasing only ended after Larissa clenched down on his tongue, spilling another gush of her arousal. Panting heavily, she looked up at Baron Hyuge as he moved his hand.

His erect penis twitched with a few sharp snaps before shooting thick semen onto her pussy. On the pubic hair, the same colour as her hair, the semen was spread like cream.

Baron Hyuge’s face was slick with her fluids, and his hair was a mess, ruffled moments before by Larissa.

Strangely enough, the baron looked even sexier in that state than anything she had seen before.

"Even now… I’m still scared of making love with you. I feel like I might end up hurting you…"

Baron Hyuge, speaking with a trembling, uncertain voice, now fixed his gaze on Larissa with eyes far clearer than before.

“But I think it’s okay to get used to it slowly like this.”

“Chris.”

Larissa sat up and pulled Chris into an embrace. The part of her that had been resenting him just moments ago, thinking: 'What are you so afraid of, you idiot?!' had long since melted away like honey in milk.

“Thank you.”

Their lips met. And for the first time in a very long while, they shared a kiss.

‘Yeah. Everything takes time to get used to.’

Even with something as simple as masturbating with a dildo, there were trial-and-error moments, so that was only natural. Rather, it was admirable to see him resolve to try harder instead of scolding her when he caught her masturbating. 

‘It probably won’t take long.’

In fact, seeing her husband masturbate earlier made her heart race, as if she were looking at a completely different man.

‘It’s such a rare opportunity, so I might as well watch him masturbate as much as I can.’

It was when Larissa harboured impure thoughts that Baron Hyuge blinked his gentle eyes and asked.

“But where did you get something like that?”

“...”

Could she really say it was a gift from Viviana?

That would be even more awkward than being caught masturbating.
