Shun POV:
*Click*
My head spun around to see Chloe wearing a purple nightdress as she continued to follow the same pattern as the past month.
“Do you like it?”
I turned away from her, ignoring the crazed look on her flushed face. So far, none of them seemed to know what Chloe was truly like—they all had impressions of her that I had never seen.
Cedric told me to just talk to her, but she never listened to me... Hm? When I told her it was my birthday, she listened right away. Was the trick to not deny her advance, but instead bring up an equally important topic? I couldn’t figure it out, but I felt like I had made some progress.
“I love you.”
I glanced back at Chloe, who stood in the same position while batting her eyelashes at me. My body trembled in response and I tried my best to calm down the boiling rage springing up inside of me.
“C-Chloe... You can’t kiss me... I t-threw up earlier...”
Her eyebrows quivered, and the sadistic smile on her face shortened. She appeared by my side and pressed her hands against my cheek.
“I don’t care about something so trivial as that.”
‘!’
Chloe pressed her lips against mine while wrapping her arms around my head, pulling me deeper into the kiss. Her tongue shot forward, exploring the inside of my mouth against my will as tears pooled at the sides of my eyes.
She noticed my reaction, but instead of getting more turned on, she pulled away. I gasped for breath while coughing to the side.
“You left this room.”
‘!’
My heart froze. I creaked my head towards her as the smile on her face widened. Her eyes curved upwards and her hand caressed my chest.
When I thought about it, it was obvious that she would know. Not only was the vomit nowhere to be se...!!!
‘...It isn’t her? She didn’t know that I vomited until I mentioned it. Is this enough to confirm that I have a helper?’
“C-Chloe... Is anyone else allowed inside of this room...?”
Her eyes squinted as her glare felt sharp enough to cut me.
“Do you wish to spend your time with another woman?”
“What?... W-what are you talking about...? Someone has been feeding me... Someone has been washing me...”
‘...I messed up. I really messed up. All I had to do was keep my mouth shut and go through the motions.’
Chloe had misunderstood what I was trying to insinuate, which was both good and bad. In her mind, she thought that I wanted to mess around with one of the housemaids when in reality; I wanted to confirm just who it was taking such good care of me.
“You wanted to share your time with that person looking after you? Is that what you’re saying?”
“N-no... I just want to know!!”
She leaned forward, shortening the distance between the two of us to a couple of inches.
“What will you do when you know?”
‘Shoot... Yeah, I failed.’
A helpless sigh escaped my lips as I accepted my fate.
“Thank them... I guess...”
“Okay. I’ll bring that person to you then.”
‘Huh?’
She got off of me and walked out of the room. The door closed shut, and I stared at the ceiling in a daze. The helper had to be one of the 5 people I had met already, unless, of course, it was the Butler.
On the other hand, if it was a woman, then Chloe probably wanted to gauge my reaction before deciding on how to handle the situation next. Not only that, but any plans to escape would become harder to accomplish since she would obviously keep a close eye on that person.

30 minutes passed by, and the door to the room finally opened again. A young woman with greyish-blond hair tied into a neat bun stepped inside. She wore a maid uniform, and there was a softness to her bright pink eyes.
‘...’
“H-Hello... I have been taking care of you... I am Chloe’s twin sister... Rachel.”
‘Ah. That would explain why they look so similar.’
She shuffled her feet, moving her body towards the side of the door as she occasionally glanced at me. She pressed her fingers together while we both stared at the open door.
“T-thank... You...”
The words croaked out of my throat, and Rachel bowed her head. Her smile was so bright it reignited the embers of hope fizzling out inside of me.
“Um... Chloe said that you should go...”
Rachel pointed towards the door while I smiled. I got to my feet and approached the open door. My hands trembled as I contemplated on whether or not I should leave.
‘!’
My gaze shifted to Rachel, who clasped my hand within hers. Her eyes shimmered underneath the artificial light as her gorgeous lips parted.
“Be strong...”
A smile spread across my lips for the first time in over a month. She was right. I wouldn’t be here forever, so I needed to be strong. Once I got out of here, I’d live a normal life.
“T-thank you.”
She let go of my hand, and I stepped through the open doorway. That was as far as I got before an ominous sound drifted into my eardrums.
*Clap*
My eyes swivelled back inside the room.
*Clap*
My gaze met Rachel’s.
*Clap*
Her lips formed a wide sadistic grin, and her eyes curved upwards.
“Chloe?...”
She grabbed my arm and threw me back into the room. I crashed to the ground as I watched the door close shut in front of me.
Chloe adjusted the slight change in her facial features, pulled the hairband out of her hair and ripped off the maid uniform she was wearing.
“I enjoy looking after you.”
My pupils dilated as I stared at her in horror. There was no helper, there was no ally or friend; there was only Chloe. She fed me. She washed me.
She did... Everything for me.
I bit my lip in denial as I glared at her. My eyebrows crumpled together in disgust while my hands balled into fists. Cedric told me to talk to her, but it was pointless. Nothing would get through to that twisted, perverted mind of hers.
“I don’t mind if you leave this room.”
“C-Chloe... Please listen to me...”
She pressed her hands against my cheek, caressing them as we stared into each other’s eyes.
“What do you want to say? You’ve already thanked me.”
Her lips curved into a slight smirk, and I resisted the urge to punch her head off. The last time I tried that, she almost broke my neck.
“...Why don’t we do something different t-tonight?...”
“I don’t want to have sex outside.”
‘...’
It was hopeless. I racked my stressed brain, but nothing of worth came to mind, so I said the one thing I didn’t want to say.
“...Tell me about yourself...”
Her eyes widened, and her hands fell to her waist. Her sadistic smile vanished as she took a seat on the bed, beckoning me to sit by her side.
“What would you like to know?”
Chloe spoke without looking at me, so I took this opportunity to examine her facial expressions; perhaps it would come in handy one day.
“Y-your... Family...”
Her eyebrows furrowed ever so slightly before returning to normal.
“I am the 5th child of my parents. As you know, the Ravendawns are beyond the ranks of the aristocracy. They sit within the top 5 of the Ten Families of Xera. The power the family has amassed isn’t just limited to the vast amount of wealth they have; it extends to legendary grade artifacts, exclusive dungeon rights, and… even that is insignificant to what they possess.”
‘Dungeons? Artifacts? I see... so this world does have the typical settings of most of the isekai novels I’ve read...’
I pondered over the information I had obtained, which really didn’t do much to change my current situation. Honestly, once I got out of here, I wasn’t planning to be a popular adventurer. I just wanted to live the rest of my life away from danger... The dream of playing hero died the first day I came here.
“It doesn’t matter to me. I love you.”
She pushed me down onto the bed before I could continue the conversation any further.
“...Can we not do it tonight?... I don’t feel well...”
It was a feeble attempt at stopping the inevitable, but it really was the truth. My body had been quaking ever since she first stepped into the room. A sharp pain kept stabbing into my head and my body felt cold, even though I knew the temperature was sufficient.
She lifted me up by the hair as I shivered a few times. My strength left me like the fleeting wind.
“I wouldn’t worry. I’ll make you feel better soon.”
“Just leave...”
Her body shivered with pleasure while my head flopped forward, landing right into her breasts. I retreated backwards, throwing the sheets on her to try to slow her down, but it made no difference.
She pinned me down to the bed; her tongue sliding along the surface of my cheek as I gagged. I wanted to throw up again, but I had already emptied the contents of my stomach, so nothing came out. I choked on the air as she kissed my neck.
“Stop...”
My whimpers made her lose herself to the euphoria. She pulled my hair back and kissed me while stripping off her clothes. Seconds later, my clothes joined hers and she straddled me just like all the nights before.
I looked up at her with half-dead eyes as her tongue glided over her lips. The constant flush on her face went the darkest shade I had ever seen, while visible steam rose from the top of Chloe’s head.
“I really love you.”
The night passed by slowly and I was violated once more. By the time everything was over, morning had arrived. She kissed my cheek, whispered into my ear how much she loved me, and left the room dressed and composed.
I forced myself off the bed, curling myself into a ball as I huddled into the corner naked.

Despite there being no ally, there had to be a way to get out of here by talking to these people. I mulled over it for a while before throwing on my ripped clothes.
‘I have n-nothing to lose.’
My legs felt weak, but I advanced towards the closed door. There was only one more person I needed to speak to: The Butler.
