The Third Holmes (𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘁 𝘅 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗬/𝗡)

CHAPTER 10

Y/N smirked as he fake gushed with the ladies who were excited to visit the annual tea party now held in the Moriarty Manor estate.

Y/N was disguised as one of the upper-class ladies, his usual suit is now replaced with a luxury dress and a floral hat that he acquired. There's also a fan to pair with his get-up.

Y/N heard the women gossiping among themselves.

"The day I've been waiting for has finally arrived!"

"Yeah! The tea party at the Moriarty manor that I've been waiting for."

"Not just Albert-Sama, but also the second son William-sama! I heard that all the servants are beautiful as well!

"Ah. What an enchanting garden."

Y/N then grinned as he heard their conversation.

You all can fawn over the first and second son. The third one is mine.

***

When Y/N was let into the manor, he couldn't help but admire the landscape of the estate.

"This is the only time that I'll be able to visit here. Why don't I enjoy it for now." Y/N smiled to himself.

Y/N's thoughts were interrupted when the oldest son spoke up. "Now that we're all here it's thanks to Count Rockwell that we were able to welcome you all here today as you can see, there are many shy people in our family."

You mean you have secrets to hide.

"Just standing in front of everyone like this makes me nervous. Please take this opportunity to take a look at our rose garden. The gardener has been carefully nurturing the roses, and they are now in full bloom."

Y/N took a glance at the roses and was impressed. "They indeed look beautiful."

"Last but not least, there are refreshments laid out for everyone to enjoy. Please take as much time as you would like to talk with us. Well then... Cheers!" Albert said as he raised his glass.

Y/N then saw flocks of women surround Albert and William, eager to have a conversation with the two.

"I guess I can now sneak in," Y/N smirked to himself as he saw the servants stationed outside busy entertaining the guests.

As Y/N went into the manor with ease, he surveyed the surroundings. "Louis probably is managing the kitchen."

Y/N then continued to walk even further in the manor and paid attention to all the decor and furniture of the house.

As he arrived at the kitchen, he then saw the servants who looked at him in question while Louis looked at him in alarm.

"Do you need something, Miss?"

Y/N then did his best girlish voice. "I apologize for interrupting your work, but may I talk to you for a little while, Louis-Sama."

Louis looked a bit hesitant but nodded.

Y/N smirked as he heard some of the servants begin to whisper among themselves.

"That woman looks beautiful."

"There's probably a lot of women like her in the garden."

"I guess that's how being a noble is."

"Follow me," Louis said as he brought them into one of the rooms in the manor.

As they went into the room, Y/N suddenly pinned Louis to the wall with a smirk.

"Wha- Miss?" Louis questioned in surprise.

"I'm sad that you still don't recognize who you kissed the last time, Louis-Sama," Y/N said with a wink.

Louis' eyes widened. "Y/N?! What are you doing here? Also, dressed like..." Louis then cleared his throat.

Y/N let go of his grip on Louis as he twirled around in his dress. "Do you like it? It was a good disguise, right? Not only Bond is good with disguises you know."

Louis then smiled. "You look beautiful."

Y/N's eyes widened as he looked at Louis and saw his sincere expression. "You're probably just flattering the lady." Y/N grinned.

"Then let me show how sincere I am," Louis said seriously as he walked over to Y/N and connected their lips passionately.

As their kiss became way more hungry, Y/N felt the back of his legs hit the bed as suddenly Louis pushed him, making him land on the bed with an "Oof".

Louis looked at him with a sultry expression. "Y/N... Let me take care of you."

Y/N stared at those scarlet eyes and couldn't help but feel flushed at the gaze. "Please."

Louis continued to undress him with his eyes as he said. "You bring a different person out of me, Y/N."

Y/N smiled innocently. "Whatever do you mean?"

"I'll show you," Louis smirked.

***

Y/N fanned himself as he lounged at one of the tables. His endeavor with Louis had to end quickly since he had duties in the kitchen, but Y/N enjoyed it nonetheless.

My backside can be the judge of that.

Y/N's daydreaming was interrupted when he was approached by one of the servants.

"Are you alright, Miss?" The servant was a very tall man, standing at 6'6 feet tall. He has narrow, darkly colored eyes, and black hair that's styled neatly.

"I'm alright. I do appreciate you checking up on me." Y/N cleared his throat and did again his girlish voice as he smiled.

"You look deep in thought." The servant told him.

"It might be perhaps I keep on thinking about a certain man," Y/N said sheepishly.

"Tell me about it." The servant said.

Y/N raised his eyebrow. "Are you not busy?"

"I'm not needed at the moment and I'm interested in this man." The man said.

The man I'm talking about is your boss.

"Fine then." Y/N shrugged. "I think he and I have indeed something going on but I just am not sure how deep it is."

The servant then nodded and said. "You mean if you love each other or not."

"I guess so, we haven't declared love to each other yet so I'm conflicted whether we have is a real thing or it's just a game." Y/N pursed his lips.

"You should be open to him about it and straightforwardly ask him."

"That's the thing... It's complicated, and I'm afraid of what his answer will be."

"How complicated? Does the man have a wife?"

Complicated, because he's a mass murderer.

"I meant it in a general sense. Emotions are just harder than writing an article, I suppose." Y/N sighed.

"You're a writer?" The servant asked.

Y/N just hummed in response.

"I was probably able to read one of your articles in the newspaper."

Y/N smirked. "He said the same thing."

Y/N and the servant's conversation paused when a woman interrupted and cleared her throat.

"Your services are needed, I apologize for bothering you. Thank you for the conversation." Y/N smiled.

The man then nodded in agreement. "I hope everything works out with your lover."

Y/N hummed as he strode out of the manor's gates.

That servant is a member of the brothers' organization. When I did my research, I saw information about him being their sniper. He's Colonel Sebastian Moran.
