The Reve - Part 1

Chapter 5: Oh Boy

The summer sun was timidly illuminating the wee hours of the morning when Mister Yotsubashi. Stretching his limbs awake, he was feeling light and somewhat high from the previous night.

"Good morning, Supreme Leader."

He turned his head on the left and his eyes landed on the young woman by his side. They travelled from her left hand keeping the bed sheets secure over her naked form, to her plump lips that formed a subtle smile, and then to her heavy feline eyes that looked inside his.

Right then, she was much more attractive than when she wore revealing dresses. She was beautiful in an intimate way. The moment's tenderness was melting away his will to leave the bed.

"Good morning, Haze."

She smiled some more when he greeted her back before asking.

"Do you want me to order breakfast while you shower?"

He nodded before voicing his approval and she proceeded.

He had to leave for home, which was less appealing than staying in bed. Especially with the host's suave voice taunting his senses. She then hung up and sat at the edge of the bed to stretch fully awake. His eyes travelled down her back and followed her as she retrieved her previous night's garments.

The outfit was assuredly out of place in the morning and he wished she wouldn't dress indecently. He also wished she could stay longer. Could she have somewhere to be so early on Saturday? She wished him to "have a nice day" and his eyes followed her out of the bedroom. He heard the main door close and silence engulfed the suite.

Sighing, he rose from the bed and walked inside the bathroom for a shower. There was a bathtub beside the shower. She could have used it before leaving. From under the waterfall, he would see her plump hands secure her hair in a high bun, displaying her neckline. Then, she would lower herself inside the tub and scrub her skin. Unless she used the shower and let him admire her backside. They could even use the shower together next time before rolling in bed.

Next time. She barely left and he was already thinking about next time. Then again, how could he not after the night they spent together? He had wanted a better performance but what happened exceeded his expectations. It's almost as if a switch button had been pressed on the brunette. The sound of the suite's door closing interrupted his thought and he finished his shower to have the breakfast that waited for him.

His drive home had been silent as he sped through the empty roads. An hour and a half later, he arrived at the modernised Tenshu he owned in Tachikawa. The property was average in its genre and discrete inside the surrounding forest. The centuries-old military compound had been renovated using modern building techniques and materials while keeping the facades ancient-looking.

The robotic staff that served the house and guarded the property was a testimony of his project, and maybe of his paranoid mind. He walked upstairs into the covered inner court for his morning run. Sweaty from the exercise, he leisurely beelined for his bedroom on top of the highest turret. During his second shower of the day, his thoughts drifted back to the host and he felt the urge to secure his next session. He barely dried himself when he retrieved his phone.

Then, 'Trumpet's words echoed in the back of his mind. Considering whether or not to book another session, he decided not to proceed after a minute of thinking. He needed stress and shouldn't overuse the host's trick. He might get hooked on her services and didn't need the strings that would come with it.

Miss Shinsou kept track of Lady Hyori's agenda by taking notes of her shift hours. The hourly rate was displayed on the girl's profile. Doctor Mineho felt uneasy whenever he remembered Miss Shinsou breaking down the contract she signed with the pension. At this point, he had been forced to admit she had known what would happen and already had a goal for her daughter.
