The next day, morning.
Sunlight peeks through the gaps in the window curtains, illuminating the still dark room. Ren wakes from his deep sleep when he feels a strange sensation in his groin area—a familiar yet unexpected tingling. His consciousness slowly returns, and he realizes there's suspicious movement under his blanket.
Ren blinks, still not fully aware, when suddenly a head with blonde hair appears from behind the blanket. A pair of blue eyes look at him with a mischievous glint.
The girl is none other than Hayasaka Ai.
"Good morning, Ren-sama." Hayasaka greets with an enchanting smile. Her lips are slightly wet and her cheeks flushed. "Do you like my way of waking you up?"
"Huft..."
Exhaling a long breath, Ren looks directly into her eyes.
"With your skills, no one would believe that two days ago you were still a virgin, Ai."
Clearly, Ren enjoys the morning "service" from Hayasaka. He extends his hand and pats the blonde girl's head as a form of praise. His fingers gently comb through her soft strands of hair.
Hayasaka's face reddens even more at the compliment. She looks down shyly, but there's a hidden smile of satisfaction on her lips.
"This is all Ren-sama's fault, making me learn such obscene knowledge. I never used to think about doing things like this."
After saying that, without waiting for his response, Hayasaka dives back under the blanket.
The blanket begins to move abnormally, rising and falling with an increasingly rapid rhythm. Strange sounds can be faintly heard from beneath it—suppressed moans and inexplicable wet noises. One could clearly imagine what Hayasaka is doing down there.
Closing his eyes, Ren enjoys the sensation Hayasaka gives him in this still quiet morning. His hand remains perched on her moving head under the blanket, occasionally giving gentle guidance.
◆━⊰✧⊱━◆
After satisfying her master's desires, Hayasaka rises from the bed with graceful movements. She fixes her slightly disheveled blonde hair and puts on a thin robe hanging beside the bed.
"What would Ren-sama like to eat this morning?"
"Anything you make will be delicious, Ai." Ren answers, still lying comfortably in bed.
"Understood."
Hayasaka smiles slightly before bowing respectfully and leaving the room. She never forgets her status as both maid and concubine, even though Ren always treats her with affection.
"..."
After enjoying the morning silence for a while, Ren finally decides to get up. He walks toward the bathroom located at the end of the corridor. The sound of running water can be heard from inside—someone is taking a shower.
Ren opens the door and sees the silhouette of a woman's body behind the frosted glass of the bathroom. Without hesitation, he slides open the glass door and steps in. Warm steam immediately welcomes his naked skin. With a quick movement, he embraces the woman from behind—Nakano Itsuki, his woman.
"Kyaa!" Itsuki exclaims in surprise, her body startled. "Hubby, you surprised me!"
"I want to shower with you... Is that not allowed?" Ren whispers in her ear.
Feeling something hard touching the back of her body, Itsuki's face immediately turns red like a tomato.
"Geez, hubby... wasn't last night enough?" Itsuki protests, her voice trembling while holding back the sensation beginning to spread. "You even slept with Hayasaka after making love to me. And now... so early in the morning... Shameless..."
"Is it not allowed?" Ren asks again, his fingers starting to move in places he knows will arouse Itsuki.
"Ahh... Hubby..." Itsuki leans her head against Ren's chest, her eyes closed. Her body trembles lightly as she feels something large beginning to enter her.
"Mmm... why... why are you always like this?"
"Like what?" Ren teases, his hand movements becoming more intense.
Itsuki pinches his waist, but not too hard.
"You... ahh... you always ask even though... mhm... even though you never listen to my opinion..."
"Doesn't Itsuki-sensei like it?" Ren accelerates his movements.
The shower water continues to flow, drenching their bodies now moving in an increasingly rapid rhythm. The steam grows thicker, covering the bathroom glass with condensation.
"Hubby... slowly..." Itsuki pleads, her hands gripping Ren's arms wrapped around her waist. "Remember... the baby..."
"I know the limits." Ren answers, slowing his movements but not reducing their intensity. "How is it? Feels good?"
"Mhm~... Don't ask so much..." Itsuki weakly protests, but her body moves according to Ren's rhythm. "You always... ahh... always know what... mmm... what I want..."
The bathroom walls become silent witnesses to the passionate morning. The sound of water falling from the shower mixes with their moans and groans. The increasingly thick steam serves as a curtain covering their intimacy from the outside world.
"Hubby... I... I'm almost..." Itsuki cannot finish her sentence, her breathing ragged.
"Together." Ren whispers in her ear, his voice deep and full of passion.
Moments later, they both reach their peak together. Itsuki's body trembles violently in his embrace, while Ren tightens his hold, supporting her weak body.
"You... Always like this." Itsuki mutters after her breathing becomes regular.
Ren just smiles, gently kissing her shoulder. "Itsuki-sensei enjoyed it, right?"
Hearing that, Itsuki turns away, refusing to admit it.
◆━⊰✧⊱━◆
At the dining table, Itsuki and Hayasaka sit side by side, while Ren sits alone across from them. Warm steam still rises from the freshly served breakfast dishes—rice with miso soup, tamagoyaki, grilled fish, and several other side dishes.
"Wow, this is delicious, Hayasaka-san." Itsuki praises after putting a piece of tamagoyaki in her mouth. Her eyes sparkle showing satisfaction.
"Thank you, Itsuki-sama. I'm glad you like it."
"Truly, many girls these days can't cook."
"Ah, but Itsuki-sama's cooking is also delicious. Especially your curry."
"Itsuki's cooking does have a special touch." Ren joins the conversation between the two girls.
"Ai, how long does it take to make a passport with the Shinomiya Family's connections?"
"Less than a day, Ren-sama. If you want to travel abroad, the Shinomiya Family can prepare a private plane according to your needs."
Satisfied with Hayasaka's answer, Ren nods lightly. "Then prepare everything. We'll go to London tomorrow."
"Yes, Ren-sama." Hayasaka responds respectfully.
Itsuki frowns, unable to contain her curiosity. "London? Why do you suddenly want to go to London, hubby?"
"I need to meet someone to discuss something important." Ren answers frankly.
"Something important?"
"Yes. While I'm gone, I want you to stay with Nino and Miku. I contacted Nino last night, she agreed."
"You contacted Nino? Since when have you been planning this?"
Considering the bad relationship between Ren and Nino, Itsuki is surprised they made an agreement.
"Last night. Sorry for not telling you earlier. The decision was sudden."
Itsuki sighs, but doesn't appear angry at Ren.
"Alright, I understand. Besides, even if you invited me, I couldn't go in this condition." She caresses her large belly.
"But Ren-sama, wouldn't it be better if Itsuki-sama was looked after by the Shinomiya Family servants? They are better trained for emergency situations." Hayasaka speaks up.
"No, Ai. I want Itsuki to be with her family. Besides, Nino and Miku's cafe isn't far from the hospital."
"Then I will prepare everything needed for our journey tomorrow."
Without questioning Ren's decision, Hayasaka obeys his arrangement.
Turning to Itsuki, Ren asks gently, "Is that okay? Just for a few days."
Itsuki smiles although there's a bit of worry in her eyes.
"Of course. I'll be fine with Nino and Miku. Just... Be careful, hubby."
"Of course. I'll be back before you know it." Ren reassures her.
After breakfast, Ren and Hayasaka leave for school.
