Beach Episode? No Bathhouse Episode!

Gathered inside the bathhouse with only towels wrapped around them, the monster girls, as well as the human twins, had settled into the warm fountained bath. Ken had yet to arrive, yet the tension in the air between the girls was entirely his fault.

"Last night…" Glaring at Cinder, Senya could smell something off about her. "I think I heard moaning from Ken's room, what were you two doing exactly?"

"Moaning?" Shocked to hear it, Maiko jerked her head in Cinder's direction.

Moving through the heavy mist in the bath, Rin rushed to the slime girl to show her frustration as well. She tried to grab Cinder, but her hand was instantly burned, forcing her to pull herself back.

"Don't tell me you and him–-" Eating her words, Rin didn't want to finish her own sentence.

"And what if I did?" Sipping on some tea in her hand, Cinder gazed around at everyone's astounded faces. "We didn't go all the way, but it's safe to say I got him first, ehehe!"

"Safe to say, huh?" Spanning her wings in fury, Senya flew towards the ceiling and lunged for Cinder's body. "I'll bet you'll feel real safe when your face meets my fists!"

"Stop!" Although her heart stung a little as well, Maiko held her hand towards Senya and bound her mid-air in a whip of pure light. "The last thing we should do is fight after what happened yesterday."

Slowly pulling Senya back down, Maiko pulled her into her arms and held her tight like a comforting big sister. Her face buried between Maiko's breasts, Senya's mind began spinning from a conflicting rift of newfound emotions.

"Seems like he's quite popular, huh?" Mercy chuckled, having witnessed the whole thing from her corner in the expansive bath.

"I suppose I get the charm," letting herself sink to her chest, Claire took a sip of wine from the glass in hand. "Soft to those he cares about, but murderous nonetheless. Girls love a guy who can dominate them a little, at least in bed that is."

Darting her gaze to Cinder, Claire decided to dig further in for the deets.

"So, how was he? I know you said you didn't go all the way, but…" A devious smile crossed Claire's lips. Only ever getting to service old rich men in her career she was deathly curious about the young blood's performance.

"I'm curious too. He looks charming in that suit of his, but I wonder what he's like in the nude," Mercy added, urging Cinder to spill the tea.

The other girls, although jealous, perked their ears as well to listen to what she had to say about her night with Ken. With everyone's attention right on her, Cinder couldn't help smiling. She wanted to burst out with every little detail of what happened last night, however before she could open her lips to speak, the entrance door to the bathhouse cracked open.

Walking in through the open door was Ken, dressed much like themselves in only a towel loosely wrapped around his waist. Moving towards them, he had no clue what had transpired inside the bathhouse or why they were all staring at him as he walked in.

"Is something on my face?" He asked, stopping right before entering the bath.

Unfazed by the near-nude women waiting for him in their towels, he seemed genuinely puzzled. Glancing down his face, even the twins couldn't help but submit their hearts to his allure. Silver hair and eyes, a chiseled body like a champion, and the low riding towel that just barely held the object of their interest. 

Biting down on their lips, the twins found themselves smiling. After all, they were looking at their savior who'd saved them from a horrible life, and to add to it, he had a deadly charm. 

'Maybe a taste of him myself wouldn't hurt?' Glancing at each other, the twins knew exactly what the other had in mind. 

"Soooo?" Still waiting for an answer, Ken called out to the girls once more. "Why are you all staring at me like that?"

The monster girl nearly jumped out of the water upon realizing that they'd been staring at his towel for so long. Stammering with words, it took them all a moment of jumbled noise before anyone could get out a coherent sentence.

"We were just waiting for you, that's all!" Said Maiko, her face blushed red in shame.

"Y-yeah! You kept us waiting for so long!" Added Senya, in a bit of an awkward jitter.

The remaining two kept to their silence as it felt most suitable. Although still in doubt, Ken finally stepped into the bath and leaned back on the bath wall to relax. The warm water, and the golden light illuminating it from under set the perfect mood for him to rest his worries. The steam helped as well by clearing his lungs, and as time passed, he felt much lighter from the inside.

'What now?' He thought, wondering what he should do now that Genji was handled and the twins were on his side. The next batch of guests weren't scheduled to arrive until the old bastard leaves and this time it won't be a small crowd they'll be receiving. 'I doubt every one of them will be working for the embassy. After all, this may be a luxury hotel, but there's bound to be more civilians visiting than diplomats.'

Hoping for less troublesome folks for a while, Ken wanted to have some more rest. Although if more ambassadors did arrive, he wanted to pluck them out and get them under his thumb as well.

"Here," Claire chimed, bringing Ken a glass full of wine.

"Thanks," taking it from her fingers, he sunk into the water and took a light sip.

The tension on his brows was visible to all, thus trying to make him feel better they all had their own ideas of comfort in mind. But to carry those ideas out without interruption, the monster girls as well as the twins were waiting for their time to get their turn to be alone with the only real man in this massive hotel. Unaware of their intentions, Ken was in for one hell of a ride.
