The Villain Is Pregnant with My Baby - Chapter 1

I transmigrated into a novel.

Not just any novel, either. It was an old-school, melodramatic monster-romance smutfest.

The author had very particular tastes. To make certain spicy developments more plausible, she had dreamed up an underwater kingdom called Atlantis. Its sea creatures could shift freely between their natural forms and human ones. More importantly, there were no reproductive barriers between species.

Mermaids, tentacle bondage, group activities… Atlantis was the author’s chaotic buffet of kinks.

The human heroine, Bai Xiaohua, was destined to fall into the ocean during a shipwreck and be rescued by the handsome merman prince Aylor. Then came all the activities everyone could imagine. While exploring this strange underwater kingdom, Bai Xiaohua would meet all sorts of tempting, beautiful fish-men.

Including me—a disposable tool-fish whom Aylor would seize and use as rope during a tentacle scene.

You guessed it. I had become an octopus.

I accepted the situation quickly. I worked diligently, saving up for a house in a safer neighborhood, all so I would never again become an unwilling spectator to the leads’ steamy adventures.

According to the plot, the human world had only just established diplomatic relations with Atlantis. Bai Xiaohua, a reporter traveling with the human delegation, had not yet boarded the liner doomed to capsize.

Atlantis was enclosed beneath a gigantic round protective dome. Inside stood towns supplied with air and water suitable for human life. Outside lay ocean water under crushing pressure, so citizens could only travel there in their natural forms.

One night, while returning from overtime outside the dome, I had been mistaken for a mindless wild octopus by an extremely aroused Aylor. I was forced to participate from start to finish in the hero and heroine’s sweaty exploration of human anatomy.

It had been horrifying. My eight tentacles had nearly clawed out a three-bedroom apartment in sheer distress.
