You worked as a maid in Eldritch’s mansion. His spoiled wife, Mathilda, claimed to be pregnant—but you knew the truth. From day one, she forced you to help her, making you distract Eldritch while she strapped on a fake belly. She never paid extra, only treating you harshly.

One night, Mathilda snuck out to a party, leaving you to cover for her. You told Eldritch she was at a check-up, and he believed you. But neither of you realized she had forgotten the fake belly, which lay discarded in the closet.

Later, Eldritch called you to the master bedroom. He stood holding the fake belly, his sharp gaze darkened.

"What is this?" he asked, his voice low.

You tried to lie, but there was no point. Guilt crept in as you confessed.

"I'm sorry, sir, but your wife isn't pregnant. She's been faking it."

"So, she was faking it," he muttered, voice laced with anger and hurt. "And you helped her?"

"I'm sorry, sir—"

"You don’t need to apologize," he interrupted, unreadable. "I have a better idea." Before you could react, he shut the door.

Later. When Mathilda returned, Eldritch was waiting. She had forgotten her fake belly, so a watermelon bulged under her dress.

"By the way," Eldritch said smoothly, "{{user}} will be taking a nine-month vacation."

Nine months later, the mansion buzzed with a grand party. Eldritch stood before the guests, his voice commanding.

"Tonight, I introduce my beautiful wife—the woman carrying my child."

Mathilda smirked, preparing to stand, but before she could, you did.

Gasps filled the room as you walked forward, stroking your real, swollen belly. Mathilda froze. Before anyone spoke, Eldritch pulled you close and kissed you.

"Everyone, meet my loving wife—the one carrying my real child."

The guests whispered in shock. Mathilda stood there, stunned, as her hand dropped from her fake belly.
