Blair’s breathing became more labored, as if she might truly suffocate. Her fragile body trembled as if she were shaking off something. She seemed on the brink of death.
Seeing her like that, Herdin’s heart sank.
If this was an act, then she should have become an actress on the stage, not a boring duchess.
Herdin finally realized why Blair had tried to send him away before starting the hypnosis.
“Enough.”
However, the hypnotist, deep into his work, seemed to ignore the command and continued to push Blair.
“We need to open the door. You have to open it and come out!”
“Ugh… Ugh… I don’t want to…”

I have translated the paragraph from Korean to English as per your request. Here is the English translation:
Herdin gently swept her trembling back as if trying to wake her from a nightmare.
“Breathe. Slowly.”
Following his slow caress on her back, Blair’s breathing gradually found a steady rhythm. Her vacant pupils also began to regain their light with each blink.
Finally, when his own reflection was fully captured in her moist violet eyes, Herdin let out a long sigh of relief.
Leaving the frightened hypnotist behind, he carried Blair into her bedroom.
After placing Blair on the bed, Herdin examined her once again, looking for his reflection in those violet eyes.
Confirming that, he got up from the edge of the bed.
“Herdin.”
As he tried to turn around, a thin voice urgently held him back.
“In the memories earlier, I faintly heard a voice. Someone was talking outside the wardrobe. The sound was faint, so I couldn’t make out what they were saying, but…”
As he regained his composure and briefly stared at her, Herdin couldn’t help but smile.
The woman was talking about the memories she had seen during the hypnosis.
The theme of those memories was her desire to escape and ultimately choosing to die inside the wardrobe.
“Maybe in the next session, I might be able to come out of the wardrobe… The voice I heard today, I hadn’t heard it before then.”
The hesitant voice discussing what would happen next sparked anger in him.
She had cried as if she were about to die just moments ago, gasping for breath. Yet, she now calmly mentioned those memories, her still slightly teary reddened eyes adding to the absurdity.
“Is that what’s important right now?”
It was a voice that suppressed his emotions as much as possible, but the coldness in his young eyes was still evident.
So, what was more important?
Blair blinked in confusion, not understanding his anger.
“The reason I called the hypnotist was to awaken your memories.”
She guessed the reason for his anger as she thought about it for a moment.
She had barely approached the truth of that day, and her anger stemmed from her inability to endure and wake up.
“Next time, I’ll try to endure a bit more. There shouldn’t be any issues with the contract, so don’t worry too much.”
She spoke calmly, but her small hand placed on the blanket was still trembling, noticeable even to his eyes.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
