Chapter 316 102 - Banemor territory - part 3 - Taken by surprise (part 2 - Reo's POV [side])　　Reo woke up together with the sun and dressed up watching it rise above the horizon.

She considered showing up to Zoemi in the green-haired boy's appearance, but she honestly preferred her real looks so much that she ended up deciding otherwise.

Actually, she was already thinking about doing a whole scene where she would leave as the green-haired boy under the excuse of returning to her family and then just stay in the Banemor mansion as herself.

"..."

She sighed thinking about it, but she knew that her family wouldn't just let her do that, as they stubbornly refused to let her leave too afraid that she would reveal the family secret and get them all in trouble.

Reo looked in the mirror checking up whether she put on the simple maid dress properly this time, and nodded at her reflection with satisfaction.

Zoemi told her that he would require some peace and quiet and to not bother him without a reason, but that didn't mean that she would have a day off herself.

She had officially become a maid-in-training after all and sir Benevirau was properly instructing her without holding back, clearly intending her to stay in the mansion as a real maid since Zoemi had a soft spot for her.

Well – more for Reo in her male disguise, but that was just a small detail that could be corrected easily...

...in Benevirau's opinion at least...

Prepared for another day of chores and duties, Reo left her room and went straight to the small office where the dark-blue-haired butler could be found in the morning and in the evening.

That's how things were for the past couple of days – the brown-haired girl would wake up, go to the butler's office, learn about the schedule for the day and go to the kitchen to have breakfast.

That day was supposed to be the same but...

*knock* *knock*

"...yes...?"

When the magicless girl politely knocked on the door, Benevirou's greeted her from the inside sounding rather shocked.

"Good morning, sir. What is the plan for today?"

Still, Reo entered the room, bowing down her head politely, and waited.

"..."

"...?"

But when she raised her head she was greeted by the dark-blue-haired butler making a confused expression.

"Is something the matter?"

She asked worriedly.

Was there something she forgot? Or maybe did the misty-gray-eyed man had already instructed her before and she did not pay enough attention?

"Miss Reo... Aren't you suppose to be with the young master?"

He asked, tilting his head.

"E-eh...? But sir Zoemi said that he will be busy...?"

Reo also tilted her head and asked back, getting as confused as Benevirau.

"Well... yes. But wasn't he supposed to be busy with you...? I mean, he is a healthy young man – he has his urges... He told me that you were informed about everything and were okay with helping him out... Did I misunderstand him...?"

"Eh...? EEEHHH?!"

The dark-blue-haired butler furrowed his brows with a straight face - which in turn made Reo blush and start fidgetting.

"S-sir Benevirau, when you say urges... do you mean that sir Zoemi wants to... with me... do the adult stuff...?"

Reo asked with a flushed face while she felt a tingly feeling in her abdomen.

"That's one way to call it, but if you mean sex and not, for example, doing the taxes, then yes I meant the adult stuff. Would there be any other reason why a young man like the young master would want two day's off even though he is making the duties of the territory ruler look like the simplest task?"

"!!!!!!!!"

The calm and matter-of-fact voice of the dark-blue-haired butler made Reo clench her legs together and gulp down her saliva while holding her hands close to her chest.

"If I am mistaken and the young master never requested you to aid him in such a way, please let me sincerely apologize. I did not mean to offend you..."

Hearing no response from the girl, Benevirau furrowed his brows and bowed down his head but...

"N-no! I-I think that he did say something about it...!"

...Reo suddenly gasped, straightening her back and declaring with her face burning bright red.

"W-we talked yesterday, and he talked about me liking somebody else, but now that I think about it, he might have just been asking that because he was too embarrassed to ask me straight about it...! I... I think that I missed it... but I would be more than happy to...! AH! I-I mean... if he wants me to... I... I do not mind...!"

The brown-haired girl couldn't stay still, as it looked like the situation she literally had dreamed about on a few separate occasions was actually happening in real life.

"Oh, I see. Yes, the young master doesn't seem to like crude language so he most likely would find it troublesome to properly convey his intentions when it comes to that subject. But as long as both of you are consenting adults... "

Benevirau raised his head and nodded in understanding, smiling softly before returning to the paperwork that Zoemi would have to check after his days off.

"I-I-I'm of then...!"

Reo gasped, straightening her back like a saluting soldier, and hurriedly returned to her room.

"Bath...! I need to take a bath...! Should I do something about my hair too...? Ah, my only female attire is the maid uniform... But... he wouldn't mind, right...?"

She thought out loud while hurriedly preparing.

A few minutes later, although she would like to have more time but was worried that she was making Zoemi wait and that he would lose interest, she was ready and standing in front of his master bedroom with still slightly damp hair.

"..."

And she was getting cold feet.

|Am... Am I good enough for him...? What if there is something wrong with me...? Aren't my breasts too unproportianally large compared to the rest...?|

Reo was biting her lips in desperation while holding her hand an inch away from the door.

|No – stop that! This is my chance...! I need to just... just do it...!|

She thought to herself and...

*knock* *knock*

She knocked on the door.

"..."

Still, at first, there was no reaction.

|Ah...! Did... did he lose interest...? Or is he angry at me for not arriving sooner? What if he is doing it himself and....|

*knock* *knock*

"I'm coming!"

|HE IS DOING IT BY HIMSELF!|

She knocked on the door again, this time a lot softer as she was getting embarrassed – but then she heard Zoemi from the inside, answering in a raspy, tired voice and her brain went places.
