Evening - In the kitchen
"..."
Hayasaka Ai looked at Shinomiya Kaguya—who somehow managed to soak herself just from washing vegetables—and couldn't help but sigh.
---
After dinner
Hayasaka Ai brought Kaguya back to Lynn's bedroom.
Kaguya fidgeted nervously, her cheeks flushed. "A-Are we really doing this...?"
Hayasaka nodded seriously. "One of the core rules of a personal maid: once the master is in bed, you must let him feel a maiden's warmth."
"B-But..." Kaguya looked down, face burning. "W-Why do I have to be... naked?"
"Clothes might dirty the master's bed," Hayasaka replied matter-of-factly.
It sounded like a reasonable explanation.
Still...Kaguya hesitated.
Seeing that, Hayasaka leaned close and whispered in her ear. "Kaguya... this is part of your job as a personal maid."
"If you can't even do this much, how can you call it redemption?"
"...!"
Kaguya froze like she'd been struck by lightning.
Then she closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths.
When she opened them again, her crimson eyes were filled with newfound resolve. "I understand."
There was a fierce determination in her voice.
Go for it, Kaguya! This was her chance to atone!
Resolved, Kaguya quickly stripped off her clothes and slipped under the covers.
"Haaah..."
Curled up in bed, she took a few deep breaths—and was immediately hit with a familiar scent.
It was...Lynn-sama's scent!
That realization made her face go beet red.
Her head started to spin a little.
Then suddenly—
FWIP! The blanket was lifted!
"Eeeeh!?"
Kaguya panicked, her eyes darting around in confusion.
The next second, she felt someone else sliding into the bed next to her.
Her whole body tensed up.
"What's wrong, Kaguya?"
Hayasaka Ai's voice rang out.
"Eh?"
Kaguya blinked.
She glanced downward... and saw a tuft of familiar blonde hair.
"Oh—it's just you, Hayasaka..."
She patted her chest and let out a relieved sigh.
She really thought—
Hayasaka looked at her with a blank expression. "You sound kinda disappointed."
Kaguya's face froze. "W-What? No way! Of course not!!"
Hayasaka gave her a sly, knowing smile.
After that little scare, the two of them lay there in silence.
Time passed...
And eventually, both of them started to get tired.
Half-asleep, they vaguely heard the sound of a door opening and soft voices.
"Master~ when are you finally gonna put a baby in me, nya~?"
Kuroka clung to Lynn like a koala, trailing her pink tongue along his neck.
Lynn calmly supported her by the thighs and replied deadpan, "That just means you haven't worked hard enough."
Kuroka rolled her eyes dramatically.
Then she turned toward the reluctant little tag-along, Koneko, her golden eyes glinting mischievously. "Shirone~ Don't you like sleeping with Master too?"
Koneko gave her a cold stare.
Why wouldn't I be unhappy? You really need to ask?
Every time things got "heated," Kuroka would hit her with a suppression spell...
Leaving her stuck halfway—neither here nor there.
Seeing the look in her eyes, Kuroka narrowed her own and whispered, "Shirone, if you push a little harder tonight... I'll let you handle it a different way~"
"Push harder?"
Koneko narrowed her eyes and turned her head away.
When have I ever slacked off...?
Still... A different way?
She bit her lip and kept glancing sideways at Kuroka.
Maybe... a little curious.
Kuroka smirked and leaned in close, pressing herself against Lynn's shoulder. Then she whispered right into Koneko's ear:
"I won't use the spell tonight."
"And you... can ask Master for help~"
Ask senpai... for help?
Koneko's face instantly flushed red.
"I-I'm not an adult yet..."
"I-Isn't this, like... illegal?"
Kuroka sighed and rolled her eyes.
Says she's against it, but her body's clearly looking forward to it~
"Don't worry, Master won't go in, nya~"
She confidently patted Koneko's shoulder.
Koneko's breathing started to quicken.
"N-Not in...?"
"Haaah~"
Koneko's mind went blank from the rush of thoughts.
Kuroka: "..."
Seriously?
Already going into heat?
Kuroka casually tossed a suppression spell at her.
Koneko: "???"
Snapped back to her senses, Koneko stared at Kuroka in disbelief.
Didn't you promise not to use it!?
"Nope, can't allow it, nya~"
Kuroka waved her finger with a seductive smile, licking her lips. "It's big sister's turn first, nya~"
As the two whispered their shameless plans, Lynn finally walked over to the bed.
He glanced at the suspiciously lumpy blanket and raised a brow.
Then—whoosh—he yanked it off.
Two tangled-up, naked bodies were suddenly exposed to the room.
"Eh?"
The sudden light left Kaguya blinking in confusion.
W-What's going on...?
Her eyes were still unfocused when—
Lynn's face appeared right in front of her.
Her brain shut down. She froze, stiff as a board, lying there in a daze.
Lynn teased her, "Not bad... Looks squeaky clean."
"Ehh!?"
Kaguya jolted awake, panicking. "L-L-Lynn—!"
Beside her, Hayasaka stirred too.
Unlike Kaguya, though, she didn't freak out.
Even though she was still embarrassed, she calmly let Lynn take in the full view.
After all...This was part of the plan.
"Hm..."
Lynn rubbed his chin. "Blonde down there, huh."
Hayasaka instinctively squeezed her thighs together and bit her lip.
That one comment shattered her usual icy cool.
Even though this was her idea, getting seen up close like this by Lynn was just too much!
She forced herself to stay calm, then said, "Lynn-sama, the bed is warm and ready. Please enjoy."
As she spoke, she shot a glance at Kuroka and Koneko.
"Oh my~ You two worked hard too, huh, nya~"
Kuroka, of course, had zero shame. She plopped onto the bed like she owned the place.
Hayasaka paused for a moment, then began putting her maid outfit back on.
But this time, her movements were much slower...Almost like she was trying to put on a little show.
Suddenly—
RIIIP—
"...Nya?"
Kuroka blinked, feigning surprise. "Ara~ Ara~ this kimono really is low-quality, huh~?"
Hayasaka turned her head toward the sound—and was instantly hit with a mental KO!
No... no way!!
How—how could they be that big?!
She stiffly looked down at her own chest, at the air beneath her chin... and her whole body began to tremble.
A total defeat! Not even close!!
Hayasaka Ai's hands flew into motion. She sped up, helping Kaguya finish dressing as well.
Then, with a deep bow to Lynn, Hayasaka grabbed Kaguya's hand and practically fled the bedroom like her life depended on it.
Only after the door clicked shut behind them did Hayasaka finally let out a breath. Her mood soured instantly.
---
"Hmph~"
Kuroka had a smug look on her face.
Trying to flaunt those tiny buns in front of her? What a joke! Just another flat chest girl!
She then dropped into Lynn's favorite doggy-style pose, giving her hips a teasing shake—fully ready to take whatever he threw at her tonight.
"Ahhhhh~~"
...
Standing just outside, both Hayasaka and Kaguya twitched as the sounds reached their ears, their bodies heating up against their will.
Kaguya, panting softly, shifted uncomfortably and whispered, "Hayasaka ... do we really have to stay here?"
Hayasaka Ai was silent for a moment, then her gaze turned firm. "One of the core rules of being a personal maid: always be ready to serve your master!"
Which meant...
Until more maids showed up, they were on door duty!
"Kaguya, this is part of the job too!"
"Mmm..."
Kaguya let out a soft whimper, said nothing, but pressed her legs tightly together.
---
The Next Morning
As the sun rose in the east, Hayasaka and Kaguya pushed open the bedroom door.
They peeked in cautiously to see... and the moment they spotted Kuroka's now noticeably swollen belly, their eyes widened in shock!
Kaguya instinctively opened her mouth to scream, but Hayasaka quickly covered it with her hand.
"Mmmph!"
"Shh~ don't wake Lord Lynn."
Hayasaka Ai whispered the words, but her pupils trembled as she looked at Kuroka.
Last night...
Just how many times did they do it in here to leave that result?!
Taking a few deep breaths to steady herself, Hayasaka said softly, "Kaguya... it's time for us to step in."
Core maid rule #2: clean up the battlefield.
The two girls tiptoed into the room. The lingering scent in the air made their hearts beat faster, though they tried to ignore it.
Hayasaka Ai folded Lynn's clothes neatly and placed a fresh set on the bedside table.
Kaguya picked up what remained of the kimono—now reduced to mere scraps—and her crimson eyes flickered with embarrassment.
Once the room was tidied up, both girls let out a quiet sigh of relief.
Then... they both looked toward the bed.
"So, uh... what do we do next?" Kaguya asked softly, her face still burning red.
Hayasaka shook her head and started turning to leave—But then froze mid-step.
Out of the corner of her eye, she thought she saw... something.
She turned back to confirm, and when she did, her eyes went wide.
It was every man's familiar companion—morning wood.
Even after an entire night—it's still that... energetic?!
She bit her lip, her gaze clouded with a swirl of emotions.
Then she looked at Kaguya.
"Kaguya."
Kaguya blinked and looked up at her.
Hayasaka subtly tilted her chin toward Lynn.
Kaguya followed her gaze... and froze.
Hayasaka leaned in, whispering something softly into her ear.
Kaguya's pupils trembled violently. Her whole body turned bright red—like a freshly boiled shrimp—and she started flailing in panic.
"N-no-no-no—!!"
She completely short-circuited, her words tumbling into gibberish.
Hayasaka Ai, in a low and haunting voice, said, "Taking care of your master's urges... is also part of a maid's duty~"
Kaguya went rigid.
Hayasaka added gently, "Didn't you say you wanted to atone, Kaguya?"
Atonement.
Kaguya's heart quivered. She lowered her head and fell silent.
No one knew how much time passed.
Eventually, stiff as a robot, Kaguya began inching her way toward Lynn, arms and legs moving in the same direction like a cartoon character.
Watching this, Hayasaka's lips curved into a faint smile.
Kaguya, good girl.
The moment Kaguya's hands made contact with Lynn's hard rod, her brain blanked out.
She moved on pure muscle memory, following Hayasaka Ai's whispered "instructions" to clean him up properly.
Suddenly—
Lynn slowly opened his eyes.
"You're a bit clumsy…"
He turned to Hayasaka and said in a calm, almost amused voice, "Hayasaka, this is how you teach her?"
"!!"
Hayasaka Ai froze in place, stiff as a statue.
