The morning sun streamed through the heavy curtains, warming the room in a golden glow. I blinked awake, stretching out beneath the soft blankets, but as I moved, I felt something unfamiliar pressing against the fabric of my pants. Confused and intrigued, I furrowed my brow, trying to understand what was happening.

With a quick glance around the room to confirm I was indeed alone, I swung my legs over the side of the bed and sat up. I had been a girl just hours ago, and now... this? Slowly, I reached down to check, and my breath caught in my throat. What I found was utterly bewildering: a penis. It shouldn't have been there.

Panic surged through me, flooding my senses. This was not just an unusual morning; it was an entire life shift I hadn't anticipated. In my past life, I had been a girl—one who worried about classes, friends, and the typical struggles of a college student. Now, I was confronted with something that changed everything I thought I knew about my identity.

As I continued to explore, a rush of confusion washed over me. How could this be? It was as if I had two bodies, both female and male. I hesitated, realizing that my initial panic was compounded by the revelation that I had not just one but two sets of genitals. I hadn't noticed this on the first day because I had been too dazed by the shock of my reincarnation.

With trembling hands, I cautiously examined myself further. I confirmed what I had suspected: while I had a penis, I also had the familiar softness of female anatomy. My small, protruding breasts added to my confusion, affirming my sense of being female despite the unexpected presence of male anatomy. The conflicting signals from my body left me feeling more unsettled than ever.

Taking a moment to breathe, I tried to piece together my thoughts. If I was going to navigate this new life, I had to understand it fully, starting with the realities of this body I now possessed. How would I deal with this? Would anyone notice? Would it even matter? I needed to focus on the challenges ahead, but the weight of this new problem added another layer to an already overwhelming situation.

The door creaked open, interrupting my contemplation. Margaret, the maid, stood there, her expression warm and inviting. "Good morning, Lady Flynn. I've come to help you get ready."

"Good morning," I replied, my voice a little shaky. I felt vulnerable under her gaze, acutely aware of my newfound anatomy and unsure of how to approach it.

As Margaret entered, she moved about the room with practiced ease. "We have a lovely breakfast waiting for you, and the Duke and Baron Larkin are eager to meet you."

"Right, breakfast," I echoed, still feeling unsettled but grateful for the distraction.

Margaret offered her hand, and I took it, allowing her to guide me through the halls of the castle. We arrived at a bathing chamber, where she prepared a warm bath with fragrant oils. As I soaked in the water, the warmth enveloped me, soothing my nerves. Margaret hummed softly, her calm presence helping me find a little peace amid my chaos.

After a moment, Margaret stepped to the door, her expression attentive. "I'll be outside if you need anything, Lady Flynn."

I hesitated, feeling a rush of anxiety. "Actually, I'd prefer to dress by myself, if that's all right," I said, not wanting her to see me in this vulnerable state. I needed to come to terms with this body alone, to figure out how to dress and present myself in a way that felt right.

"Of course, my lady," Margaret replied with a gentle smile. "Take your time. I'll be just outside."

Once she stepped out, I felt a wave of relief wash over me. I took my time, using the opportunity to explore the bathroom and adjust to my new reality. After a thorough washing, I stood before the mirror, studying the clothes laid out for me. I had never been one to fumble with medieval attire, but I was determined to dress myself.
