Description

Yeocheong, an inconspicuous prince of the Song Empire, was attending his first banquet and happened to meet Jihyuk, the crown prince of the Yeon Kingdom. They only had a short, trivial conversation, but strange rumours began to spread… “Seventh Prince, it seems that you’ve developed feelings for the Crown Prince of Yeon. This emperor is not so narrow-minded as to dismiss the romantic feelings of a child.” Eventually, Yeocheong was married to Jihyuk on the Emperor’s orders. But once they became husband and wife, Jihyuk remained cold and distant. “I apologise for my improper behaviour that forced you into an unwanted marriage…” “There is no need for such thoughts. It was a marriage that had to happen anyway.” From a prince with no presence to a queen in disgrace with his king, Yeocheong decided to live a meaningless life. But for reasons unknown, Jihyuk began to approach him with unexpected tenderness. “Because I love you… I think it would be good if time stopped here.” But their happiness was short-lived, as Jihyuk’s behaviour suddenly changed. His Highness never intended to have an heir with him in the first place. You see, when an Omega drinks this, he can’t conceive for the time it takes to work. What Yeocheong had received from Jihyuk was not love, but deception. “You said… you loved me.” “Did you believe that? Those moments may have been happy for you, but for me… well…” In the end, abandoned by Jihyuk, Yeocheong met his death. * * * However, for unknown reasons, Yeocheong opened his eyes again in the past. This time he decided to live a different life and never get involved with Jihyuk again. But for some reason, Jihyuk started to show a different side than in their past lives. “We must be more familiar with each other’s touch than anyone else’s. Isn’t that right?” Once married to Jihyuk again, Yeocheong finds himself spending a passionate season with him…

My Thoughts on Carrying the Child of the Man Who Killed Me

"Carrying the Child of the Man Who Killed Me" certainly grabbed my attention with its dramatic title, and after diving in, I can see why it's sparking such strong reactions. This isn't your typical fluffy romance; it's a heavy, angst-ridden tale that delves into the complexities of trauma, forgiveness, and second chances, or perhaps the lack thereof.

First Impressions

Initially, I was a bit hesitant. The premise seemed potentially overwrought. However, I quickly found myself drawn into the MC's world, a world tinged with heartbreak and a palpable sense of hopelessness. The story throws you right into the thick of things, wasting no time on pleasantries, which I appreciated. It sets a tone that is both captivating and unsettling.

What Works Well

The strength of this novel lies in its raw and unflinching portrayal of the MC's internal struggles. The author does an excellent job of depicting the lasting impact of trauma and the difficulty of moving on, especially when faced with the person who caused it. The morally grey characters add another layer of complexity. They are not simply good or evil, but flawed individuals grappling with their past actions and their consequences. The plot isn't focused on the blossoming of love, but rather the MC's journey of self-discovery, his fight to survive, and his complicated feelings about forgiveness. This is what sets it apart from other novels in the genre.

Final Verdict

"Carrying the Child of the Man Who Killed Me" is not for the faint of heart. It's a dark and angsty read that explores the complexities of trauma, revenge, and the possibility of forgiveness. While the heavy themes and morally grey characters may not appeal to everyone, I found it to be a compelling and thought-provoking story. Despite some potential plot holes, the raw emotion and character development make it a worthwhile read for those who enjoy stories with depth and complexity. I'd say proceed with caution, but if you're looking for a story that will leave you pondering long after you've finished reading, this might be it.
