Saturday.127Please respect copyright.PENANA2xGcFMXxaK
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.127Please respect copyright.PENANAvoIZFh8IZo
Then—ding-dong!127Please respect copyright.PENANAmsFI66osXw
A sharp, crisp doorbell shattered the peace.127Please respect copyright.PENANASPiVMifqZt
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.127Please respect copyright.PENANAHsudgPQsSC
And, judging by the direction, it wasn’t his door—it was the one next door.127Please respect copyright.PENANA2YfhRn45v4
He groaned. “Vigne?”127Please respect copyright.PENANAlhtOyV6vhH
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.127Please respect copyright.PENANA2JDrqgzJZQ
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.127Please respect copyright.PENANAj7XBuou3Oi
Sure enough, after two more rings, silence. Then, as expected, a few moments later—127Please respect copyright.PENANAwdv4sGT9XQ
Ding-dong. This time from his door.127Please respect copyright.PENANAMqervH46VF
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.127Please respect copyright.PENANAyR3VNSuQya
When he opened it, the sight that greeted him made him blink twice.127Please respect copyright.PENANA0aaYGRjYSc
“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.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAgt6qXr01Fk
“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.127Please respect copyright.PENANA4VeobBa9bd
And just when he thought it couldn’t get worse, a third voice joined in.127Please respect copyright.PENANAgHcDpBKXEs
“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!”127Please respect copyright.PENANA1YOHu1CZf0
Kouya froze, staring blankly at the three of them.127Please respect copyright.PENANAgGafkzzpYV
Are you kidding me?! You’re all here?!127Please respect copyright.PENANApsj2pSpdxL
You said eight o’clock at the amusement park! It’s barely six! What kind of maniacs wake up this early on a Saturday?!127Please respect copyright.PENANAG9gNlbdp2T
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.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAVroxcqI6L6
“Yeah, yeah,” Kouya muttered, stepping aside and gesturing for them to enter. “Come in.”127Please respect copyright.PENANACMjCx9Lc6g
“Thank you, Kouya-kun.” Vigne’s politeness was flawless as always.127Please respect copyright.PENANA4UI7eLCBMm
“Eh?” Satania suddenly looked down at the entryway. “There’s a slipper missing.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAyBwfoSL6Ig
“I live alone,” Kouya said flatly. “Just come in barefoot.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAeR6BmXl9jk
“Oh, okay.” Satania obediently started to step in—but Raphael, of course, couldn’t resist.127Please respect copyright.PENANAtQbh7EOFhp
“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.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAcbLPByxdNg
“Pff—!”127Please respect copyright.PENANAj9RkXrbmfs
Kouya’s jaw dropped. What kind of logic even is that?!127Please respect copyright.PENANA7EpOV71iRW
“W-Wait, seriously?!” Satania gasped, jumping back. “That can happen?!”127Please respect copyright.PENANAgr7CPIAcXw
“Raphael, don’t say strange things.” Vigne sighed, handing Satania her own slippers. “And Satania, no, that’s not possible.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAIc3HXEZ1jq
“But Vigne, you’ll get pregnant too!” Satania cried dramatically.127Please respect copyright.PENANAFGS2Fkgxqf
Pregnant, my ass!127Please respect copyright.PENANAyRlSMQrtua
Kouya pressed a hand over his face. How did this become my morning? “Just... come in already.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAZWcnM0VcjL
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.127Please respect copyright.PENANAFbHQL9qRf8
“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.”127Please respect copyright.PENANABJV3gR3T2h
“Maybe,” Raphael said smoothly, tapping her chin, “Kouya-kun cleaned up last night. You know, hiding all the embarrassing things.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAKm98KOGb8Z
Satania blinked. “Embarrassing things?”127Please respect copyright.PENANARkgc70MKUq
Raphael smiled sweetly, raising a finger to her lips. “Like... dirty magazines, or adult toys~.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAegksuyQyqL
“D-Dirty magazines?!” Satania’s eyes went wide as her face turned scarlet. “A-Adult toys?! Those exist?!”127Please respect copyright.PENANA6uxlySSnQ8
“Raphael!” Vigne scolded, cheeks flushed pink. “Stop saying those things! Kouya-kun isn… isn’t like that!”127Please respect copyright.PENANAliwrDbZmpP
That pause—why the hell was there a pause?!127Please respect copyright.PENANAqgWfkOv4CJ
Even you doubt me, don’t you?!127Please respect copyright.PENANAUwPbwerRtb
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!127Please respect copyright.PENANAuXZvxOIF2T
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!127Please respect copyright.PENANA5ta2jckdq5
“Not necessarily,” Raphael interrupted calmly. “At school, I’ve received quite a few love letters from boys.”127Please respect copyright.PENANA6k0b32w2aV
“Good for you,” Kouya muttered.127Please respect copyright.PENANAPfv30hVMis
“Some spray perfume on them. Others include rose petals,” she continued with an amused smile.127Please respect copyright.PENANAwDhc4vA6Ps
Corny, but harmless.127Please respect copyright.PENANAzaGAYbCm5S
“And some even leave snacks in my desk.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAmSVY4eS4Zv
That’s just biology, Kouya thought. Sharing food’s a basic animal instinct.127Please respect copyright.PENANAR5kqN20Q3V
“But last week,” Raphael added with perfect calm, “someone left me a black pair of panties.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAuFJLWJb2rz
“WHAT?!” Kouya sputtered. “That’s not affection—that’s a felony!”127Please respect copyright.PENANABIiRKUpzvf
Raphael smiled sweetly. “I had a pretty good idea who did it, too.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAwBKq3IKeJU
No. No way.127Please respect copyright.PENANAfGEVKcTa5R
“You didn’t...” he said cautiously.127Please respect copyright.PENANAzaRmkGgonJ
“Oh, but I did.” Her smile widened. “I gave him a thank-you gift. He’s still recovering.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAoiIvO7RZQL
Kouya groaned. “You did turn him into a pig, didn’t you?”127Please respect copyright.PENANA3yYsybaISM
“Mm-hmm~” Raphael hummed happily. “He oinked so realistically, too.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAcKdouojprW
Holy hell. That explains why that idiot didn’t show up for class Tuesday.127Please respect copyright.PENANAK1b0BZRWli
“But,” she continued in a lower, teasing tone, “I really liked the style of that underwear. So I ordered another pair online.”127Please respect copyright.PENANA4PFz9Lvgrj
“Raphael!” Vigne exclaimed, face bright red. “Don’t—”127Please respect copyright.PENANAMm2C2636VG
Raphael ignored her. “Kouya-kun... want to see?”127Please respect copyright.PENANAp7ingBPEre
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.127Please respect copyright.PENANAD4racf5fY6
As she slowly lifted her skirt, that forbidden strip of skin expanded, smooth and flawless.127Please respect copyright.PENANABC8MkNvlvq
Vigne froze, mouth open. Satania’s brain short-circuited completely, her face going from red to crimson.127Please respect copyright.PENANAxNgL9JvIPA
Kouya squinted, crossing his arms. “Go ahead.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAXYLf2yyxOf
They locked eyes—Raphael’s playful smirk against his deadpan stare.127Please respect copyright.PENANAb2JDYhd8Z0
Three seconds.127Please respect copyright.PENANA7WjUwwEA9h
Five.127Please respect copyright.PENANAGzNDv41jNS
By the seventh, Raphael’s face was bright red. She dropped her skirt in defeat, coughing awkwardly. “...You really are impossible.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAFp9nmWcYwl
Kouya smirked. “Round one goes to me.”127Please respect copyright.PENANAZsF5XoNP5k
