"Mmmph… Hah~ Ngh—Uhn~ My… my back… Hic~ S-So sore… D-Don't press there… Nngh~" Ran's muffled whimpers filled the room as she burrowed deeper into the pillow.
Though she tried to hold still, her fluffy tails betrayed her, wrapping around Rin's arms, their tips brushing his chin and wrists.
The tingling softness made his fingers stray, his『 Sensitivity Boost 』 activating more frequently—
Until Ran's consciousness hovered on the brink of evaporation.
Yukari, slumped in a chair, narrowed her eyes at Ran's pleasure-twisted expression.
"Boss, aren't you playing favorites?"
"I was screaming in pain, but Ran's been moaning for ages without a hint of suffering!"
"You lounge all day, your spine's stiffer than a board. Ran's back is perfect." Rin rolled his eyes, his hands never pausing.
Once she pays for the premium service, she'll understand how much I held back.
Yukari puffed her cheeks, about to tickle him in revenge—
"Aah—!!!" Ran's shriek cut her off, melting Yukari's legs into an awkward twist.
Ran's tails tightened like vice grips.
Then Rin stopped.
"Nn… Huh?" Ran's ears flattened, her dazed eyes pleading.
'I was so close! How could you stop now?! I won't be able to sleep at all tonight!'
But Rin just smiled—
"Ran's in great shape. No need for extra treatment, just light relief. This was perfect."
"Wh… What about my stomach?"
"Skipped. Saves time. You can rest early."
'Shorter than Yukari-sama's session?!' Ran's eyes hollowed. 'This was just a trial version?!'
Yukari smirked, smug despite her own grievances. 'At least I got two steps!'
"Alright, it's late. Early to bed, healthy lifestyle~. Want more? Buy a ticket next time. Members get exclusive perks~" Rin ushered them out, ignoring their betrayed stares.
'This sadist teased us on purpose!'
But with no choice, they slunk off—burning with unsatisfied curiosity.
'Maybe… tomorrow… the full package?'
As their footsteps faded, Rin stretched, cracking his knuckles.
'Now… to collect the debt from Marisa~'
"Sage, where's Marisa?"
『 Target located in Patchouli's room. Patchouli and Reimu present. Reimu and Marisa asleep. Patchouli just awoke from a nightmare. 』
『 Room soundproofed. No noise will escape. 』
Rin's grin widened.
'Time for some fun~'
Meanwhile, in Patchouli's Room…
Patchouli looked at the bed, where only Marisa lay.
'Thank god… Just a dream…' She slumped back, exhausted.
'Honestly, what was I thinking? Even if the boss plays with Marisa, he wouldn't do it right in front of—'
Click.
Her blood ran cold.
'Did… the doorknob just turn?' Patchouli froze, staring at the door. Its menacing nature makes Patchouli unconsciously gulp.
Which creaked open three seconds later.
'It's him! Why didn't I LOCK IT?!' As Rin slipped inside, Patchouli dove under her covers, feigning sleep.
Her heart pounded as his shadow loomed closer.
'Is he here for Marisa… or me?'
When he paused by her futon, her breath hitched.
'Me?!'
Before she could react, his hand lifted the blanket—
Checking her breathing. Patchouli forced steady breaths, mumbling sleepily.
'Did… it work?'
Rin replaced the covers. Then brushed her disheveled hair behind her ear.
The gentle touch burned, awakening dangerous memories—
His fingers traced her cheek before withdrawing.
'…Just testing me?' Patchouli exhaled as Rin turned to the bed.
And lay down beside Marisa.
'Wait.'
'WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON MY BED?!'
