Saturday.25Please respect copyright.PENANAyKci9LNZnm
It was just past six in the morning. The first rays of dawn had only begun to spill across the rooftops of the quiet neighborhood, washing the city in faint gold. Birds were beginning to chirp softly in the distance, the breeze carried a faint chill, and the streets were still wrapped in the dreamy calm of early morning.25Please respect copyright.PENANALYpbi6x6Ug
Then—ding-dong!25Please respect copyright.PENANAI43MtaVX55
A sharp, crisp doorbell shattered the peace.25Please respect copyright.PENANAHHEZ7KKwIV
Kouya’s eyes snapped open. For a second, he wasn’t sure if he’d dreamed it. But the sound came again, ringing clearly through the thin apartment walls. It was sharp enough to feel like an alarm bell in the stillness of dawn.25Please respect copyright.PENANAlkUykTDnyC
And, judging by the direction, it wasn’t his door—it was the one next door.25Please respect copyright.PENANAKbyQJ6zZxn
He groaned. “Vigne?”25Please respect copyright.PENANAQyGHX0hfHf
The rhythm was too familiar. She always pressed the bell twice, paused, then once more—like a polite knock sequence. The last time she came over to check on the Scottish Fold cats, it had sounded exactly like this.25Please respect copyright.PENANAfC8ilksYQK
But at this hour, there was no way Gabriel would be awake. The lazy angel didn’t even open her eyes before ten on weekends.25Please respect copyright.PENANAgu7elT8UWR
Sure enough, after two more rings, silence. Then, as expected, a few moments later—25Please respect copyright.PENANAjy3zJypNzn
Ding-dong. This time from his door.25Please respect copyright.PENANAGqzgOUDP6E
Kouya sighed, dragging a hand through his messy hair. “It’s way too early for this…” He threw on a loose hoodie, slipped into his slippers, and shuffled toward the door.25Please respect copyright.PENANAEnLTwWz4gX
When he opened it, the sight that greeted him made him blink twice.25Please respect copyright.PENANAivKXjLgE02
“Um, I rang Gabi’s bell a few times, but she doesn’t seem awake yet,” Vigne said softly, standing outside with an apologetic smile. Her long purple hair shimmered faintly under the morning light. “Would it be alright if we waited inside for a while? I didn’t want to disturb anyone else.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAW1Vxw1f2jb
“Good morning, Kouya-kun,” another voice chimed sweetly. That calm, lilting tone could only belong to one person—Raphael, the silver-haired angel who wore the face of serenity but the heart of mischief.25Please respect copyright.PENANAZwo0SaClkR
And just when he thought it couldn’t get worse, a third voice joined in.25Please respect copyright.PENANAaew0YfSHV8
“Hmph! What are you looking at?” the red-haired demon puffed up proudly. “Raphael begged me yesterday, so I, the Great Satania, decided to accompany her! You should be grateful for my divine generosity!”25Please respect copyright.PENANA49W0uMJje7
Kouya froze, staring blankly at the three of them.25Please respect copyright.PENANAUR28XJmYPC
Are you kidding me?! You’re all here?!25Please respect copyright.PENANA4q1iGPFFxe
You said eight o’clock at the amusement park! It’s barely six! What kind of maniacs wake up this early on a Saturday?!25Please respect copyright.PENANAGpT0poEPnj
Vigne tilted her head, smiling like a teacher reminding a lazy student. “Early mornings are good for you, you know. Oversleeping ruins your energy for the day.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAzZC1gvEXWp
“Yeah, yeah,” Kouya muttered, stepping aside and gesturing for them to enter. “Come in.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAmQPSZiHq51
“Thank you, Kouya-kun.” Vigne’s politeness was flawless as always.25Please respect copyright.PENANASbp9quUyLu
“Eh?” Satania suddenly looked down at the entryway. “There’s a slipper missing.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAjCyjrYsnRc
“I live alone,” Kouya said flatly. “Just come in barefoot.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAgZd5ib38Pr
“Oh, okay.” Satania obediently started to step in—but Raphael, of course, couldn’t resist.25Please respect copyright.PENANAykY1c2LTAf
“I’ve heard that boys’ rooms are full of mysterious and scary things,” she said innocently, eyes glinting. “If you walk in barefoot... you might get pregnant.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAjOr7jpSazC
“Pff—!”25Please respect copyright.PENANA0SasHZuXrA
Kouya’s jaw dropped. What kind of logic even is that?!25Please respect copyright.PENANARmlzIpCdcY
“W-Wait, seriously?!” Satania gasped, jumping back. “That can happen?!”25Please respect copyright.PENANA3vM1OTQwhf
“Raphael, don’t say strange things.” Vigne sighed, handing Satania her own slippers. “And Satania, no, that’s not possible.”25Please respect copyright.PENANA7gHSqg8lF3
“But Vigne, you’ll get pregnant too!” Satania cried dramatically.25Please respect copyright.PENANABqGW9Z4LrL
Pregnant, my ass!25Please respect copyright.PENANASbLgCnBl3V
Kouya pressed a hand over his face. How did this become my morning? “Just... come in already.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAdiLHJuur9d
The three of them entered, their footsteps soft against the floorboards. Satania immediately began snooping around like a detective, poking at bookshelves and peeking into corners.25Please respect copyright.PENANA8RwMRQY2MM
“Hmph,” she said with a smug grin. “I expected a boy’s room to be filthy and chaotic, but this is actually... decent. Of course, it’s nowhere near as magnificent as my royal quarters, but I’ll allow it.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAoi557TlPmB
“Maybe,” Raphael said smoothly, tapping her chin, “Kouya-kun cleaned up last night. You know, hiding all the embarrassing things.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAp0lfaldFbS
Satania blinked. “Embarrassing things?”25Please respect copyright.PENANAVqkAPDKM4H
Raphael smiled sweetly, raising a finger to her lips. “Like... dirty magazines, or adult toys~.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAGdzFWVexGW
“D-Dirty magazines?!” Satania’s eyes went wide as her face turned scarlet. “A-Adult toys?! Those exist?!”25Please respect copyright.PENANAlpE4mtoJhY
“Raphael!” Vigne scolded, cheeks flushed pink. “Stop saying those things! Kouya-kun isn… isn’t like that!”25Please respect copyright.PENANArhA6LtrB2o
That pause—why the hell was there a pause?!25Please respect copyright.PENANAGGRxF5HRPW
Even you doubt me, don’t you?!25Please respect copyright.PENANAXUY1xC0f2c
Fine! Maybe I do have a secret collection... but it’s not what you think! It’s art! Refined culture! Historical preservation of the most forbidden anime scenes known to mankind!25Please respect copyright.PENANAwbwZCCXwer
You girls have no idea the danger you’ve stepped into. This is the lair of the former Demon King! According to every dark anime trope, this should end with me locking you all inside for a lesson in corruption!25Please respect copyright.PENANA0f3BHzhWpB
“Not necessarily,” Raphael interrupted calmly. “At school, I’ve received quite a few love letters from boys.”25Please respect copyright.PENANApnbhppO5MN
“Good for you,” Kouya muttered.25Please respect copyright.PENANAmXMrk00i7J
“Some spray perfume on them. Others include rose petals,” she continued with an amused smile.25Please respect copyright.PENANA31r0z4Sg8y
Corny, but harmless.25Please respect copyright.PENANA11RvppTbV7
“And some even leave snacks in my desk.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAJu5QG26UYY
That’s just biology, Kouya thought. Sharing food’s a basic animal instinct.25Please respect copyright.PENANArMDEjq81hy
“But last week,” Raphael added with perfect calm, “someone left me a black pair of panties.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAAD5hhxzrwb
“WHAT?!” Kouya sputtered. “That’s not affection—that’s a felony!”25Please respect copyright.PENANA7uVAb6iRP8
Raphael smiled sweetly. “I had a pretty good idea who did it, too.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAElT2fNRLWo
No. No way.25Please respect copyright.PENANAL7fviWbp4p
“You didn’t...” he said cautiously.25Please respect copyright.PENANALcvT61syAf
“Oh, but I did.” Her smile widened. “I gave him a thank-you gift. He’s still recovering.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAC1tVSthlrc
Kouya groaned. “You did turn him into a pig, didn’t you?”25Please respect copyright.PENANAHUhxLMX57z
“Mm-hmm~” Raphael hummed happily. “He oinked so realistically, too.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAqQt9rCb1SC
Holy hell. That explains why that idiot didn’t show up for class Tuesday.25Please respect copyright.PENANAk4NRoI7qfY
“But,” she continued in a lower, teasing tone, “I really liked the style of that underwear. So I ordered another pair online.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAyN0gkSTOPL
“Raphael!” Vigne exclaimed, face bright red. “Don’t—”25Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9n4jXh4MD
Raphael ignored her. “Kouya-kun... want to see?”25Please respect copyright.PENANA5GWihOL9Rz
She wasn’t wearing her uniform today. Instead, a white blouse tucked neatly into a red-and-black pleated skirt. Her black stockings climbed just above her knees, leaving a slim, glowing band of bare skin between the two—a mesmerizing strip of light that could make anyone’s pulse skip.25Please respect copyright.PENANA72RK2LYQoh
As she slowly lifted her skirt, that forbidden strip of skin expanded, smooth and flawless.25Please respect copyright.PENANA3MYrWRm1RP
Vigne froze, mouth open. Satania’s brain short-circuited completely, her face going from red to crimson.25Please respect copyright.PENANA2F656Wn0eY
Kouya squinted, crossing his arms. “Go ahead.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAQs0CWa0aCb
They locked eyes—Raphael’s playful smirk against his deadpan stare.25Please respect copyright.PENANA9znnFnsAEW
Three seconds.25Please respect copyright.PENANA9IFXojq0Pw
Five.25Please respect copyright.PENANAqmeKql1bKe
By the seventh, Raphael’s face was bright red. She dropped her skirt in defeat, coughing awkwardly. “...You really are impossible.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAx3jmAcUusC
Kouya smirked. “Round one goes to me.”25Please respect copyright.PENANAJWqLFWUXZQ
