After cooking, I give Mira her food and eat mine opposite her at the dining table. She tries to get up, but I stop her from leaving.
"You can eat with me."
As she starts eating, she doesn't say anything and simply stares at me, probably wondering what the hell is going on in my head.
Honestly, I want to talk to her and ask some questions, but I feel right now isn't the time to be chatting casually with her. It would create some sense of familiarity and make my job a bit harder to complete.
After eating, I lie down on the bed, and that's when my phone suddenly pings. I check it and see that Aleena and Lilith sent me messages at the same time.
What the actual fuck?
I check Aleena's message first and see several crying emojis and, lastly—
{You didn't tell me you were not coming home tonight. Now, who will cook for me?}
Sigh. This girl never learns how to do anything on her own. Honestly, even though Aleena drives me crazy sometimes, I overlook her behavior because she's one of the nicest people I've ever known. I'd still be a slave if it wasn't for her.
I begin to type a reply.
{Go and get some street food. There's money inside my pillowcase.}
Then I send a humanoid frog emoji afterward.
Next, I check Lilith's message. There are quite a lot of them which I didn't reply to earlier, but tonight she sent me an emoji of herself in her room, wearing a black camisole with the caption—
{I can't wait for us to go on a date tomorrow.}
Ah shit. I almost forgot I had a date tomorrow. I guess I need to get some clothes.
{Sure, me too.} I reply, adding a love emoji at the end. Lilith quickly sends one back, and then another one again, making my heart flutter and beat rapidly.
Is this what it feels like to fall in love?
Just when I'm enjoying the feeling of the moment, Aleena's message suddenly pops up with an angry emoji of a small elf fuming, smoke coming out of her mouth and her ears bright red.
{Why didn't you tell me you were not coming home? I'm so lonely now.}
I look at the message and sigh.
I really don't understand Aleena. Sometimes she behaves in a way that makes it seem like she likes me and wants our relationship to be more than just friends and roommates. When I talked to her about it, she flared up and said she isn't interested in dating me.
But she still kept getting intimate with me, like lying on top of me or sleeping in the same bed with me sometimes while wearing only a thin nightgown. One day I almost crossed the line, but I stopped myself because I didn't know what would happen afterward. I didn't want to strain our friendship because of my own selfishness.
I don't reply and simply archive her message.
Well, I look forward to tomorrow with Lilith. I turn over on the bed to sleep properly, and suddenly I see two red glowing eyes.
"Who's that?!" I ask as I jerk upright, my soul nearly leaving my body. Then I notice it's Mira standing right beside the bed.
I quickly turn on the light and see that there's nothing in her hands. I still can't trust this crazy girl yet.
"It's me, Master. I am sorry for startling you." She apologizes with a bow.
I'm taken aback by her action since she no longer looks at me with that same hatred.
"Whiff… you scared me. When did you even come in?"
"You didn't lock the door properly. I'm sorry for startling you. Is there anything you want me to help you with before you sleep?" she asks.
I look at her. She's still wearing her maid uniform, and from the question she asks, I think she means normal chores.
However…
"Give me a blow-job," I say, watching her face for any reaction.
As expected, her body jerks slightly, but she doesn't say anything or frown.
"Okay," she says, getting on her knees. She ties her hair back and begins undoing my pants. In no time, she starts sucking my cock, bobbing her head in a fluid motion that doesn't feel forced like the last time. Within minutes, I offload a huge load into her mouth.
Next, I tell her to continue, and I release a second load into her mouth. After that, I feel satisfied and tell her she can leave.

The next day I wake up, stretching my body while yawning. There still isn't any notification from my system class, like a quest trigger for training Mira or something.
When I look to the side, I see Mira standing there, staring down at me like a statue, and she's wearing a tighter uniform than yesterday.
"Can you stop scaring your master like that? I think you should put on a more friendly expression," I say in a serious voice.
"I am sorry, Master. I just arrived and didn't want to disturb your sleep. I made you breakfast this morning," she says with a small bow after apologizing.
I don't say anything and simply ogle her with a perverted expression, my eyes fixed mostly on her chest, which instantly makes her uncomfortable.
"I think I am going to eat you instead. Get naked," I order in an authoritative voice, slipping back into my savage persona.
