Stealing Spree
chapter-1174

"Yoko-san. This is Ruki, the guy I'm dating. No, the guy I'm going to marry." Rae introduced me to the maid. However, her tone wasn’t really that cheerful. Moreover, even when talked to, the maid, Yoko-san remained standing there with her back bent and head bowed.

She simply moved her head as acknowledgment before turning around and leading us in.

She didn’t even question why Rae brought me inside.

As for Rae, I noticed how her eyes got fixed on the woman’s back as she once again released a small sigh.

Having caught on to that, I couldn’t help but try to dig into its meaning, “That’s two times.”

“Hmm?” Not understanding what I meant by that, Rae was puzzled.

“You sighed two times since the gates opened. No, since you see Yoko-san bowing at us. I don’t mean to pry but as your worrywart boyfriend, I can’t resist.”

“I sighed? I didn’t notice…”

So that’s an unconscious reaction, huh? Is it because she didn’t want the maid to treat her as nothing more than her ‘master’?

“Well, I won’t make things up, especially if it concerns you. You can tell me about it later if you’re uncomfortable.”

“Un. I will tell you. But let’s get inside first.” After thinking for a moment, the girl then put on a smile, reassuring me that there was no need to worry.

“Alright. That aside, I think I will get lost in this place if I ever sneak in.”

From the outside, I thought there was only a huge mansion. However, upon entering, there’s more to it than that. There was a lot of open space and smaller structures; probably a lodge for servants and a garage.

Though not as grand as the Kaneko Household which literally needed a map to navigate, it’s still up there.

“And why do you have to sneak in?”

“You know, night crawling.” I joked. But thinking about it, I did the same thing with Otoha a few times so it’s truer than any other jokes.

“Pfft. Are you from that old era? But you’re right. I’ll give you a tour next time.”

“Well, I only need the route to your room and we’re good.”

That response made the girl burst into laughter, dispelling any gloom that she might’ve been feeling earlier.

Rae pulled on my sleeves which made me lean sideways, allowing her to reach my ear even without tiptoeing. And with as sexy a tone as she could, she whispered, “Pervert… Doing it with Aya isn’t enough?”

The girl’s hand also landed on my crotch, tracing what was hidden beneath with her fingers. She soon captured it in her grip and gave it a squeeze.

“Well, as you said, I’m a pervert. Also…” As I trailed my voice here, I also turned to press my lips close to her ear before copying what she did, “…. my desire for you won’t be put off just because I satisfied my desire for Aya. You can feel it.”

Even without touching it directly, my cock again started flooding with my blood as it hardened by the second.

Rae laughingly shook her head but she kept her hand on it, feeling the transformation that was happening.

“Let’s take care of this in my room…” In the same tone as earlier, she winked and whispered once more before ending it with another kiss.

With Yoko-san, the maid, leading us, the three of us soon arrived inside their mansion.

It’s really rather extravagant considering the porch was as wide as half of our lot. For sure, navigating in and out of this property would be so tiring.

Since Rae never left my side, the girl simply guided me in. We passed by the large main hall and approached the winding stairs.

As for the maid, she returned to her duties, leaving us alone. She’s actually about to make tea for us but Rae stopped her, telling her to just don’t disturb us.

When she said that, I could notice how Rae was actually conveying the opposite meaning. She wanted the woman to be concerned about her.

However, same as in the earlier instances, the woman simply bowed and walked away.

That’s frustrating for sure. Rae’s frown didn’t escape my notice.

And that’s why, instead of letting me guide her, I enlivened the mood by taking the lead.

It indeed surprised her but I simply waved her confused mind off and said, “Alright, where to, ojou-sama?”

Rae giggled once more and played along with it, “Fifth floor, the farthest room from the right side.”

I looked up from the stairs and the fifth floor seemed really far away. No… Is there even a fifth floor? The main hall might have been opened up to see the top ceiling, however, I only counted up to the third floor.

Upon seeing me doing that, the girl’s amusement went up a notch. “I’m joking, it’s on the second floor, the first room on the left. As you might’ve guessed, it’s always a hassle navigating this empty mansion. If only it’s possible, I will take up a room here on the first floor.”

“Why is it not possible?”

“They intentionally didn’t put any bedrooms here. Even the guest rooms are upstairs.”

“Ah. I see… I guess it’s a lot better if you move in with me.”

“Sure. Help me move, Ruki.” Rae once again rode on my joke as we started moving upstairs.

The two of us continue that conversation, laughing in between.

Truthfully, the two of us understood that even if we acted this boldly and strode to her room without thinking of consequences, I still couldn’t stay for long.

Her parents had no idea that she invited me in. Furthermore, she had no plans to tell them about this. Although her mother wanted Rae to bring me to her, it would probably happen after she returned home.

Besides, when I planned to come inside, I only thought of checking on her living conditions.

When we had that talk yesterday, I also picked up a hint of loneliness from her story. The girl wanted to be praised but with no one to do so, I became her main source for it.

Moreover, her seemingly distant relationship with the maid also added to that. As the only two people living in this mansion, this girl most likely wanted to at least be on speaking terms with her. Not just a master to a servant.

Anyway, as the girl said, I failed to see any other people inside apart from the maid. The mansion felt even more deserted than Ishida-senpai’s house.

Perhaps this place used to be lively but as her siblings started growing out of their ‘child phase’, it gradually became like this.

And today, only Rae remained here. But soon, she would also leave. I would be taking her with me, after all.

When that time comes, this place would probably be abandoned.

Not long after, we finally reached her room.

Rae opened it and pulled me inside.

Though not as big as Otoha’s room, it’s still rather spacious. I could spy rows of bookshelves on one side. It appeared like a mini library.

She had a computer in one corner but she probably seldom used it.

As for her bed… it’s actually almost the same size as what we have in our bedroom.

Dropping our bags on one corner, Rae and I naturally moved to her bed and climbed up on it.

Rae helped me take off my long-sleeved coat and I did the same for her, leaving us both in just the white, buttoned shirt beneath it.

As if it was the natural thing to do, we lay down side by side before facing each other and at almost the same time, faced each other.

I stretched my arm out, letting her head use it as a pillow, and placed my other hand on her hair, combing it with my fingers.

Rae moved closer, squeezing inside my embrace until we were as close as possible.

“Comfortable?”

“Un… I love this, Ruki. I finally got you here in my room.” Rae looked up with her blinding beautiful smile.

That’s simply irresistible. I pulled her up slightly for a kiss before replying, “What are we going to do then, confine me?”

“Heh. That’s a good idea. But I don’t want to be assaulted by everyone if you don’t show up tomorrow.”

“True that. Well then, let me hear what’s troubling my Rae.”

“Un. It’s simple really, Yoko-san is my childhood friend. No, rather than a friend, I see her as my older sister. She’s not originally a maid of our family but due to circumstances, she became one. And it’s been two years since she started taking care of me. However, as you have observed, even if there are only the two of us here, she never acted out of line. She remained that subservient even when I tried to talk to her as the little Mirae who she doted on before. It’s kinda frustrating.”

Ending that with another sigh, Rae gripped my shirt, fully conveying the frustration she was feeling.

Most likely, she hadn’t talked about this to anyone yet until today. That’s why this felt so heavy that her joyous mood and our lively atmosphere instantly dipped once again.
