Unlike how he treated Zach, Bruce wasn’t overly thankful towards Luna. He only thanked her while greeting them in the beginning, but refused to show any kind of interest in her existence. Neither did he try to acknowledge her existence nor did he deliberately isolate her from the friendly conversation that followed.

Zach noticed the slight detail and became sure that Bruce had received the news either from Diana herself or from one of her party members. But he didn’t blame Diana for it since being the head of the family Bruce should have known about it. The secret would have come out anyway as long as Zach decided to stay with the Luther family.

Diana was embarrassed when she saw her brother ignoring Luna purposely. She had been the first to notice how peculiar her brother was acting towards Luna.

She sheepishly looked towards Zach in an attempt to figure out if he had noticed it too.

To her shame, Zach had figured it out too. He was a smart one after all. ．

Even though Zach didn’t look like he blamed her for this betrayal of trust, she wanted to look for a place to bury her face. She barely faced him and offered an embarrassed and apologetic smile on top of her already sullen expression.

“Please you have just finished a long journey and you must be tired out. They will take you to your room where you can rest for a while until dinner is ready.” Bruce pointed towards the servant girls as he ordered them to help Zach and Luna.

“Then we would like to gratefully accept your proposal. The smell of dirt and blood hasn’t left me for some time. I would love to take a long bath at the moment so please excuse us both.” Zach too talked in a slightly formal tone as he replied on behalf of Luna as well.

Zach bowed slightly as was the custom in this world to show his appreciation for Bruce who was hosting him and Luna and then turned to the servants who were still stuck close to the edge of the room like they were decorations.

When they noticed Zach looking at them, one of them who was especially endowed in certain areas came forward and pointed towards the huge double doors which were guarded by sturdy looking armed guards on both sides.

Zach didn’t understand why there was a need for guards to be positioned inside one’s home.

“How cautious and paranoid do you have to be to let them stand guard even inside your living room? What is the use of being rich if you are going to live like that?”

Thinking such thoughts, Zach followed after the big bosomed servant with Luna in tow.

They passed by the double doors and entered a well lit corridor that was full of antique looking decorations. Glass lamps and candelabras were placed at various intervals.

“There goes my hope of relaxing while watching TV. It doesn’t look like this place has electricity. Even such a rich family is still using candles and spirit lamps. I wonder what the poor do in this world. Do they just not come out of their homes at night? Or do they just use the moonlight for all purposes. It seems tough…living like that.”

Zach was a modern youth who had lived his life behind screens. Whether that of his gaming computer or of television, he was addicted to it. There was never any middle ground for the things he liked or disliked. He was an extremist who took each like or dislike to the very limits. This was what relaxation had meant to him in the past.

At the same time, he wondered what was worth getting addicted to in this world.

As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, he unconsciously turned towards the seductive succubus silently following in his footsteps as she gazed at him with eyes full of adoration and love.

Thankfully, he had Luna with him who was not only his only link with this world and its common sense but turned out to be a far better companion than he could have ever hoped for.

The servant took several abrupt turns as she continued to lead them towards their room which was supposedly located at the other end of the labyrinth like network of corridors that stretched across the lengths of the residence which was surprisingly huge considering the fact that the entrance had never looked so humongous.

The servant finally stopped at the door of a particular room and opened the door before stepping aside slightly to make way for Zach to enter.

“This is your room sir. There is an attached bathroom available. A maid will be here to take care of heating your bath water and to help you in the bath if you like.”

The servant bowed as she muttered some details that Zach had not expected to hear. Although he wasn’t used to such treatment, he wasn’t averse to living the life of the rich for a short duration.

Zach nodded and entered the room with a relaxed gait. Luna tried to follow him but the clear voice of the servant rang out to stop her in her footsteps.

“We have prepared a separate room for the lady. If you would please follow me, I can take you to your room.”

“There will be no need for that. I don’t need another room. I can stay here.” Luna insisted. Her face was hidden behind the hood or the servant might have seen the wrath bubbling underneath the hood.

“How dare this wench try to separate me from master? And what does she mean by him needing a maid to attend to him in bath? Aren’t I here?” Luna was by no means a jealous woman. She knew her position and accepted it. She didn’t mind Zach having multiple women. Rather she would be happy if such a thing could help Zach.

But what the servant had just tried to do was separate her from him which was where Luna drew the line. Her proud personality that had been lost underneath her new identity finally reared its head once her priorities were threatened.

“Let her be. It’s not like it is her fault. She must have been ordered by someone else.” As if Zach could sense her feelings, he ordered her to stop being difficult with the servant girl.

Zach turned towards girl who led them here.

“We won’t be using the other room. Thank you for bringing us here. As for the maid, tell her to stay put. We can heat our own bath water.”

Zach hurriedly gave instructions to the servant and pulled Luna into the room behind him by grabbing her arm.

Zach stood in the doorway as he watched the servant girl bow her head and take her leave by taking a few steps back first.

“Inform us once the dinner is ready but before that do not disturb us.”

Zach closed the door after delivering the last set of instructions to the servant who paused in place to listen to the details of his orders before continuing on her way.

“Why did you act like that?” Zach had a slightly admonishing tone as he reprimanded Luna for acting like that. He didn’t want her to be misunderstood by the people that they might live with for a while if situation permitted.

“She tried to take me to a separate room. What am I supposed to do there?”

“Rest…Take a warm bath…isn’t that why we are here?” Zach replied.

“Then what if I get hungry? Should I eat shit for food with those humans?” Luna retorted slightly angry with her master for taking the side of the human servant against her.

Zach was dumbstruck by what she said. He had truly not been thinking clearly.

Luna couldn’t eat with the humans at all. She needed him to eat; she needed him to survive and Zach had tried to send her away. Of course she would act like her tail had been stepped on. Her anger was truly justified.

At the same time a smile formed at the corner of his lips.

He pulled down the hood hiding her onyx horns and her seductively innocent face and pulled her into his embrace.

Holding her tiny waist, he scoured the entire length of her backside with his hand. His face reached the side of her head as his lips kissed her earlobe.

“My darling succubus, you do know that I would be eating the same shit as those humans, right?”
