The law of Fiction: Harem in the fiction world
67 Ch 65: Back in your room [pt1]
The Khan mansion seemed to not have changed a single bit in the past eight years. The paintings were the same, and so were the decorations. Heck, even the staff looked to be the same.
It was as if the whole world had stopped moving in here and the place had been preserved as it had looked all those years ago.
The only difference in that room was Lalya Khan’s appearance which looked a little older and the beautiful Maya Khan who had bloomed into a mature flower after all those years.
“I welcome you all to this small and formal dinner party to solidify our future bond. I hope all of you would find this to your liking and look forward to our future cooperation.”
Laya Khan’s words were strong and attractive. Everyone looked at her with admiration and even lust. But it was not all because of her words and her beauty.
It was also because of the clothes she was wearing. Her fur coat showed a good portion of her huge burst and the red ruby pendent attracted attention to her Swan-like neck.
And then there was Maya who had been big before but now her body was all curves and boobs. She looked like a supermodel, one who was well-revered for their body. And the shy girl from eight years ago was gone as well.
Maya’s eyes shined as she winked and walked around. She was a walking seduction, a temptress like none other now.
“Master Yohan, I will go and make connections around now. Give me a signal when it is time to leave.”
Zane whispered in his ear before he left to find a few friends. Yohan let him go easily as well, having no intention of keeping Zane around.
There was no need for a fourth person tonight since Yohan had plans already. His eyes met Maya’s and he watched as Layla whispered something in her ear.
Maya’s eyes widened as she quickly looked toward him again and Yohan only gave a small wave back at her to show that he knew her. Maya looked flabbergasted by the response and there was a shy blush on her cheek.
It showed that the young girl from before was still inside this new and sexy Maya. Yohan was excited to get to know her again. He watched Maya take a few steps toward him but she was stopped by Layla.
And her simple node made Yohan realize her plan. He needed to pretend like he did not know Layla and Maya for now. There were the Saints around and alerting them would not be a good idea.
‘Well, I am sure that Layla will be able to send me a message on her own. I should not be worried about anything.’
And she did send Yohan a message after fifteen minutes. It came through a nervous servant girl he had not seen before.
“H-Here. Someone ordered this on your behalf.”
The poor servant girl sounded nervous. It was clear from her mannerism that she was new and trying to get to know her surroundings better. She was not even able to look at Yohan properly.
But he still knew that the servent was trying to sneak a few looks in right now. He could feel the weight of that servant's eyes on his body.
He debated whether to tease the servent any further or not before controlling himself. There was a glass of wine and a small tablet on the tray he was being served with. And Yohan quickly picked both of them up.
He was not the only one who had a suspicious white pill on his plate. Many of the others in the hallway had similar mixtures brought to their table.
But unlike Yohan’s tablet, the others were being served drugs. It was a common sight at high-class parties where most of the people attending were addicts and junkies. It made them easier to control.
“M-Madam asked you to take it slow.”
The servant interrupted as soon as Yohan picked up the pill. Concern flashed in the servant’s eyes as she watched Yohan take the pill.
She likely thought of it as a drug as well since Yohan was a high-class elite. But he was sure that it was his looks that were making the servant girl so flustered.
“Ah, I see. Thank you for your kind words of concern. I am sure I will remember them and be careful from now on.”
The servant girl’s face exploded in a red blast as she tried to make sense of what was happening. Yohan was playing with her hair as he leaned in closer to her.
It must be getting too overwhelming for the servant girl because she looked ready to faint any second now.
And it was also then that Yohan let her go. He could feel Maya’s eyes on his back and he suddenly felt sorry for the servant girl who would have to take the brunt of Maya’s fury.
Of course, Yohan knew that Maya was not a good person. She might have pretended to be good before but there was a seed of darkness and jealousy in her body. So he was also sure that Maya will not be able to sit still if he flirted around a little.
‘But oh well, it is not my problem. The servant girl should have been careful before she came on to me like this as well.’
Yohan was not a spiteful person but he was also not someone who unconditionally cared about everyone he met.
Right now, Maya was more important than this servant girl so Yohan would not stop her if she wanted to do anything.
“M-Master Yohan, take care of yourself.”
The servant girl gave a small bow to Yohan as she wobbled away. She had been adorable but Yohan had a feeling he would never see her again. And it was quite alright with him.
Yohan took a look at the small pill he had been handed over and quickly turned it around. It was a lot rougher on the surface than a normal pill was but it also felt different in his hand.
Yohan rubbed it a little more and a side came off.
‘I knew this was not a drug but a message for me. I should check it out in person.’
Now that Yohan knew he had a message waiting for him, he could not help his curiosity. He quickly found a corner to hide and allowed the message pill to dissolve in water.
As expected, it unfolded into a paper with a single message written on top of it.
‘We will meet you in your room, my lord. Hope you do not keep us waiting.’
The sender was definitely Layla since this was so much like her speech pattern. Maya was a little more impatient and rude when she spoke. She had also been blunter in her approach toward Yohan.
‘Time for me to make my exit. Now then, how should I do this?’
Yohan knew a few excuses that would be perfect to leave this party but he did not want to draw attention to himself right now. So he decided to take the easiest way out and down his wine glass went.
It splashed on his boots and his pants a little, causing a stain on his clothes. A few people looked at Yohan with sympathy, likely lamenting over his expensive suit.
“M-Master Strout, would you like some help? Do you need me to call for a cab or-?”
It was the butler who asked this question in panic. This accident seemed to have spooked him a little. This was not the exact effect Yohan had wanted to create but it served its purpose well.
“I cannot head out like this in front of the guests. I will head to a restroom for now and leave later. Tell me aid and your host what happened. I will apologize to Lady Khan later.”
This way, the rumor will spread on its own and no one would be able to fault Yohan for heading toward the restroom. Anyone else would have done the same in his stead.
Except, Yohan was not heading toward the restroom but toward the room that had been given to him during his last stay. That was where Layla had asked Yohan to head toward.
He did make a show of getting to the restroom but he quickly activated his skill ‘Shadow cloak’ once he was alone. It allowed no one to see him when he was moving around. It made sneaking around a lot easier for him.
Yohan also came across a few shady figures whom he was sure belonged to the Saints. They seemed to be searching around for something else inside the mansion.
‘Tsk, now I am really glad I decided to sneak around like this.’
This decreases the chances of Yohan being found out by anyone. Especially these lackeys of the heaven who were a pain in Yohan’s butt.
He hurried up to get to the other end of the corridor and entered his previous room. It looked untouched from the time he had last been there.
And just as he sat on the bed, the door opened up again and a familiar face entered the room.
“Master, did you miss me?”
Maya’s beaming face looked back at him
