It has been another two days since Tanya has arrived. She pa.s.sed all of the first day a.s.signments for every cla.s.s, however, she was still waiting for Politics cla.s.s.

Under the gentle light of the patterned lamp, the dark room was illuminated by a faint yellow tinge. Flickering like an unstable flame, the lamp showed a different light to Tanya. She had come to Penelope's room to discuss under the faint light.

"Tanya, I a.s.sure you that you will definitely be on top of the cla.s.s with all of the lectures I've given to you. I doubt anyone else can play the game better than you. I can already see that you are on the level of a full n.o.ble, much ahead of the rest of your year." Penelope continued with a sigh.

"Penelope, I already know that. These children have not matured after all. I matured because I have such a beautiful maid beside me, making me desire to become an adult faster. You are my motivation." Tanya winked.

"Tanya, Tanya, those cheesy lines will not work on me right now. You have captured the hearts of many women this week, even receiving a proposal from a Countess. Think about the political benefits of having a Countess as a wife. Now you will have relatively powerful political power even when you finally graduate."

"Having an ally a few steps above will guarantee a safer path to higher ranks of n.o.bility, so please do not waste your chances."

"Same as having a good teacher." Tanya replied with a grin.

"Tanya, you are my young mistress, of course I will teach you well. However, at the end of the day, I am your maid. We can do all of these naughty things but we are from two different worlds. I only hope that you will grow up to be wonderful." Penelope kissed Tanya on the forehead gently, hugging onto the latter with an iron grip.

"The light really sets a different mood, now you have become so dramatic and romantic. All of a sudden, you are attempting to make my heart throb…"

"Penelope, Penelope… you do not seem to understand. Have I ever played with you haphazardly? I will always see you among my first priorities, the one that stood beside me since childhood and raised me so well. Do not try and run away, I will find you no matter the distance."

"How romantic… Tanya, you have many other women, why would you need me?"

'So is this what it's all about? You are jealous? How cute.' Tanya grinned.

"I a.s.sure you, I am serious about you. I may see many other women, but I am definitely serious about you." Tanya kisses Penelope's forehead.

"How serious?" Penelope asked while blus.h.i.+ng, unable to meet Tanya's eyes.

"I will give you my first time." Tanya immediately responded.

"I promise that my first time will be with you, you alone. Whenever you want it, regardless of the wager. I will say yes." Tanya placed herself on Penelope's lap, smugly looking into the latter's eyes with a longing expression.

"Tanya… you would really give me something so precious?"

"Yes… as long as I receive your virginity as well."

'Shameless!' Penelope became as red as a tomato.

"I really do believe that the name 'Penelope Vermillion' fits well. It just sounds meant to be."

'SHAMELESS!!!'

"Tanya, what if I were to ask for it now? Would you take off your clothes?" Penelope deviously smiled. She wanted to test the waters first, to see whether Tanya was really serious.

PLOP

Tanya's clothes fell to the ground as she sat on Penelope's lap, completely naked.

"Ahem… I think you have proven your point. Put your clothes back on, Tanya. Otherwise, how will we sleep?" Penelope coughed and blushed.

"Obviously on top of each other." Tanya immediately answered without a hint of shame.

"Shall we continue or do you wish for me to stop?" Tanya asked, licking her lips.

"You probably used this lantern for the purpose of setting the mood. Just enough to see each other, but not enough to see the world around us. I get the impression that you were planning this…"

"Tanya, I am jealous, okay? I am your maid, so you must take care of me as my master! You only met those other women this week. I met you when you were but a little child. We are both adults now, mature as we should. Those other women, you can have them when they have matured. Until then, I forbid you from doing anything too much to them." Penelope ordered with an authoritarian voice.

"That Countess… Rosellia… you may do things like this with her. This is only because I trust that she is more mature than the rest." She gave a reluctant face and looked Tanya in the eyes.

"Penelope, remember when I was 14 years old? That was the very first time that I attempted to make you mine. You served me tea and I gave you a kiss on the cheek. Ever since then, I have been more bold with you."

"So please just tell me if you want me right now." Tanya warmly smiled.

Tanya may have never experienced love in the centuries she lived as Tane, but it only took her 14 years for her to meet her match in the form of Penelope. If the other girls made her feel attracted or made her heart a skip a beat, then Penelope had already captured a piece.

"And do not worry, I still haven't kissed another woman on this spot…"

SMOOCH

Tanya pecked Penelope's mouth and proceeded to ease her tongue through and wrestle with Penelope's.

"Then you will not kiss another girl like this until we have slept together."
