"Training?" Elias was taken aback, his gaze shifting uncertainly around the room.
The maids encircled him, and the head maid solemnly presented a... whip?
Elias's eyes widened in shock.
Olivia chuckled softly, taking the whip in her hands, her gaze becoming more intense as she looked him over.
Elias felt a shiver run down his spine at the heat in her eyes.
This was getting intense...
Was she planning some sort of elaborate role-play?
In broad daylight, in the main hall, with an audience of young maids?
"Uh, Olivia," Elias began, glancing at the surrounding maids, "Isn't this sort of couple's play better suited for the evening..."
Seeing no change in Olivia's expression, he lowered his voice. "If you really want to play during the day, we could go to a private room, close the door..."
"The maids are watching. Are you planning to include them too?"
His remark caused the surrounding maids to blush.
