We t up with Gabrielle.
For a mont, I almost didn’t recognize her.
The girl sitting in front of wasn’t quite the sa Gabrielle I had known—the one I had spent most of my academy days with, side by side, sharing countless monts and inside jokes only we would understand. This Gabrielle... she was different.
She carried herself with a subtle grace I hadn’t seen before with her presence sohow heavier and more grounded. Her hair looked shinier, her posture straighter, with her movents slower and more deliberate. She had... an air about her now. Mature. Refined. It made blink twice, as if my brain needed an extra second to catch up and confirm that this was indeed her.
"Hello, Rose. It’s been a while," she said, her tone smooth, almost calm. She rubbed her stomach with a hand.
Even the way she smiled now—it wasn’t the sharp, calculated smirk or cold, indifferent expression I had grown used to. This one felt warm but reserved, deliberate, like she’d chosen to let it show. The kind of smile you wouldn’t expect from soone who had always seed distant and hard to read.
"Have a seat," she gestured, her voice steady.
Irene and I exchanged a glance before sitting down, the three of us forming a little triangle at the table.
"You haven’t left yet?" Irene asked, breaking the silence.
Gabrielle shook her head, her expression calm but with a knowing glint in her eyes. "Well, I knew you were going to co back, so I didn’t leave."
"It seems like you already have a plan in mind with all of this, huh, Gabrielle?" Irene asked again, leaning back slightly as if trying to read her.
Gabrielle’s lips curved into that mature smile again. "Well, it’s only natural. I’m one of Master’s won, and I want to make my Master as happy as I can. So, I wanted to surprise him... with a threeso with the two of us."
My brain froze.
...Wait. Threeso?
"But I’m quite surprised that you brought Rose here too," she added, her gaze sliding over to . "Well, it doesn’t sound bad. If I want to give Master more happiness, then I guess bringing her here too would be good."
I blinked, completely thrown off by the sudden shift in conversation. "Wait—what’s happening?" I asked, my voice a mix of confusion and disbelief. It felt like I’d walked in halfway through a theatre show and everyone just assud I knew the plot.
"Huh? Didn’t Irene tell you already? We’re having a fourso," Gabrielle said casually, as if she’d just announced we were going out for coffee.
My mind went blank for a second—completely white noise. Then, sohow, I managed to smile, even though it was mostly out of sheer shock.
"Wait a minute... what?" I said slowly. "With who? Leon, you, Irene... and?"
Irene and Gabrielle looked at each other, sharing this silent exchange like they were on the sa wavelength, while I was just standing there on the wrong smartphone signal. Irene only shrugged, almost dismissively, like she knew exactly what I ant but just couldn’t be bothered to explain.
"Wait— with ?!" I finally shouted, my voice pitching up as the realization slamd into . "W-What’s going on here? I thought you only wanted to help you have so peace with Gabrielle! Why am I suddenly part of this?!"
"Well, didn’t you say you wanted to help ?" Irene said, her tone calm but her eyes flickering with a hint of guilt.
"I did say that, but not like this! A-Are you out of your mind?!" I snapped.
"What, Rose? You don’t like it? Even though you did it with Irene last night?" Gabrielle asked, her gaze steady and unflinching.
"I-It’s not... I an, how can I when— Wait, this isn’t the kind of help I was talking about! And even then, what kind of thing are you even thinking, suggesting sothing like this?" I shot back, my voice wavering between embarrassnt and frustration.
"W-Well, I wouldn’t be able to do it alone..." Irene admitted, looking away from , her cheeks slightly pink as an awkward smile tugged at her lips.
"So that’s why you hid such a crucial detail from and only told when it mattered?" I asked, my tone sharp. "How does this possibly lessen the distance between you two or help you understand each other better? I don’t think having a fourso is necessary for that."
"Well, not exactly... but sex does," Gabrielle said matter-of-factly. "There’s actual research proving that having sex with soone impacts the understanding between them and deepens the connection. So, Irene and I needed to have sex to understand each other. But since we’re both won, we can’t exactly do that alone—aning, no other choice but to have a threeso with Master."
I just stared at her. My jaw didn’t drop, but it felt like it could have. The words coming out of her mouth were so absurd that even if they were sohow true, they still didn’t explain why I was here.
"Then I’m going ho. I’m not putting myself through embarrassnt two tis in a row," I said, pushing my chair back slightly.
"Wait, Rose," Irene said quickly, leaning toward . "I can’t exactly do this alone, you know? That’s why I called you. Didn’t you say you’d help ?"
"Not this way!" I shot back instantly.
"Rose," Gabrielle said suddenly, her voice softer but more intense. "Master really loves you, you know?"
Those words stopped cold. I knew that. I’d always known it. That fact was carved into my heart as deeply as my own feelings for him—feelings that accepted every part of him, quirks and all.
"I think... it will be a great joy for Master to have us in his bed tonight," Gabrielle continued, her tone calm yet strangely persuasive. "The greatest joy he’s ever had. Don’t you want to see him with that kind of face? Don’t you want him to feel that kind of happiness?"
Honestly, I had no idea what she was even talking about. It felt like another conversation where the context had been completely thrown out the window. But sohow... my mind stalled.
Because as a woman who loves a man without conditions, it’s only natural to want to give him everything—to see him at his happiest, to make him feel that rush of joy. That’s why, when I was with him in bed, I would do anything he asked, no matter how embarrassing. Well... not when I was sober, at least.
So hearing that I could give Leon the greatest joy he’d ever feel... of course, it caught my interest. But a fourso?
"W-Well, we’d do it only one ti..." Irene said, her voice a little shaky. "S-So there’s nothing to worry about."
One ti. Just once. Well... I’d already done plenty of embarrassing things—wearing a maid uniform for Leon, for one—so would this really be that much different? I’d already been in a threeso before... though doing it two nights in a row was definitely going to test my emotional endurance.
But for now... maybe I just had to give it a go.
