Ch 2.37: Guests
Thoughts of spending the night with Tira dancing through her head, it was difficult for Elaina to keep focused on her meal, no matter how good it tasted. She’d been thinking a weekend out with the girls would’ve led to maybe even more than that, but that had always been wishful thinking; the four of them didn’t quite have that kind of relationship, right?
“I’m expecting another person from your school sometime soon,” Abel said, breaking Elaina out of her thoughts as he came over with a pitcher to refill their drinks.
“Another group of students?” Flora asked as she went to grab her mug.
“Not sure, but they only reserved one room. Paying for it even if it’s kept empty, which is pretty nice I must stay.” Once his pitcher was empty he reached in his pocket, pulling out two keys, each attached to a numbered piece of wood. “And speaking of rooms, four and five are yours tonight. Both have two beds, so no need to worry about that.”
“What if we wanted a room with one large bed?” Tira asked, causing Elaina to choke into her mug a bit. It was a forwardness she’d expect from someone like Flora, but not Tira. Maybe the former was rubbing off?
“Well, I wouldn’t normally mind, but the only empty one I have is reserved like I said,” Abel said, seemingly undisturbed by the request. Findd new stories at novelhall.come,” Flora said, “guess we won’t get to fight over it after all.” Carline was the one who choked this time.
Abel returned to his work, and Elaina’s party returned to their meal. “I really do hope those monsters don’t come near here,” Carline said, breaking the silence.
“You’re worrying too much,” Flora said, finally finishing her bowl and stretching her arms out. “They were miles away from town, and I saw one of them out there a few months ago, and it still hasn’t shown up here.”
It wasn’t long before Tira had led her up the stairs, was deftly unlocking their room’s door before sliding inside. Elaina went to follow still, but Tira turned around, blocking the entrance. “Flora told me about something unfair that happened earlier.”
Unfair? Given the context, given it was Flora that said it, she could only mean one thing. “You— you were asleep?” Elaina wasn’t sure why it was a question.
“You liked it, didn’t you? Being undressed in public?”
“Yes...”
“Yes what?”
“Yes, Mistress, I did like it...”
“Good. But I can’t be the only one that didn’t see it, right?”
Elaina understood. She knew she could stop it too with her safeword, that Tira would let her in at anytime with just two syllables. She also knew that at that moment, she wanted nothing more than to obey every last one of Tira’s words. “Right, mistress...”
She looked down each side of the hall as she reached for the top button of her jacket.
