As James pulled into the big road trail he looked at the map.
'Is this right?'
He was a big confused however, as he drover for another 2 minutes it was stopped by a gate. Coming out of the small office next to the gate was a muscular man was approached the car.
"Who are you?"
"I-"
"Are you a fucking retard? I'm Aaron Helvaris, the new owner of this place! Open the fucking door!"
Aaron yelled and glared at the guard, causing James to flinch.
'Does this fucker need to yell every time he opens his mouth!'
"Ah, m-my apologies, young master Aaron,"
Quickly going back to the small office, the man pressed a button, causing the gate to open. The car moved and continued to move up the mountain. Soon, the view of the mansion appeared, causing James to be shocked.
'Holy hell! This is where this brat lives!'
The mansion was a huge, fancy building with a green roof and many tall windows. It sat behind a wide, neat garden filled with cone-shaped trees and trimmed bushes. The place looked rich and elegant, like an old royal palace.
Pulling up to the front where an old woman was standing, James stopped the car.
Dahlia opened the door before quickly exiting the car and opening the door for Aaron.
The old maid, Adeline, seeing Aaron, immediately approached and bowed.
"Good evening, young master Aaron. I am the head maid of this residence, my name is Adeline." Hearing that, Aaron looked up and down before he spoke, "I'm not into grannies,"
"?"
Adeline, hearing, couldn't help but twitch her brow; however, as an experienced maid, she ignored the comment. "Please allow me to escort you," Adeline said while glancing at the 2 women behind him, grabbing some bags.
'It seems he really is a pervert'
"Hurry up, I'm hungry! Are you going ot make this young master stay here forever?"

Hearing the name and not remembering anyone important, I quickly used my skill.

'That's pretty good for a servant.'
Following Adeline into the giant mansion, I remembered why this mansion was built in the first place.
My older half-sister was made to go to this place to go to school. Apparently, when she was younger, she liked nature or something, which was why her father made it to this mountain range. But after…the "incident," she was given an island where she was currently living.
However, it was then given to my half-brother after he was successful in becoming a semi-player.
But now it was given to me.
'She is my father's servant, but 'he' also lives here'
"Who do you report to?"
"I normally report to young master Zeke,"
"Do you not report to my father?"
"The master hasn't connected this since young master Zeke took over 10 years ago. The most recent contact was a few hours ago to tell me that you, young master Aaron, were going to be living here,"
"I see,"
It did make sense. My father had many properties in this city; after all, we owned the [Great Helvaris] Corp, which was the largest media company in the world, that since its conception made 1000s of 5 star movies and shows. The company also had a lot of shares in other companies, making it incredibly influential.
"Speaking of which, where is that fucker Zeke? Shouldn't he be greeting me?" I asked in an annoyed tone.
"I'm afraid I don't know where young master Zeke is always out of the mansion and only returns to the mansion once a month, but once he arrives, I will inform him of your arrival,"
"I see,"
Well, I guess that works in my favor; however, I needed to confirm one thing.
"I was informed you were the only servant here?" When I said that, I watched her flinch.
'Guess that confirms it'
Her reaction seemed to confirm my thoughts; however, I now needed to figure what extactly to do.
"N-no, I'm not the only servant here," Seeing my gaze, Adeline quickly explained, "A few months ago, three intruders entered the mansion."
"And?"
"They happened to be siblings, according to them, their parents were murdered by a loan shark. I was able to confirm their story due to one of the men following them here,"
"Let me guess, you took pity on them and took them in,"
"Ye-yes, but their incredibly talented young master, I'm sure they could awaken as players someday." Seeing my frown, I saw Adeline quickly try to explain; however, I was frowning for another reason.
'Three? Weren't they supposed to be twins? Did one of them die? Or…'
I shook my head 'No, I need to see to confirm this'
"I'm assuming my father didn't know, but what about Zeke? Does he know?"
"No," Adeline eventually answered.
Thinking for a minute, I then asked something else, "So are they branded?"
"Yes,"
"Oh? How did you manage that?"
"I have a contact in the city who owed me a favor," she replied
Causing Aaron to nod, "Alright, let's see them,"
Stopping in front of a giant door, it was slowly opened by Adeline, revealing a lavish dining room. The table itself was dectrated with many tricnktes and many dishes were laid on the table. However, my gaze was focused on the maids.
There were three of them.
My gaze fell on the first girl, who was trembling slightly as she fidgeted with the lace of her apron. Her long violet hair cascaded down her back like a silken curtain, and her bangs slightly covered her violet eyes. However, she had an impressive figure despite her maid uniform trying to hide it.
The girl beside her had similar features. She was wearing a crisp black-and-white maid outfit and stood with her hands neatly folded before her. Her long lavender hair, tied in a high ponytail with a soft ribbon, and her violet eyes stared at me with appreciation; however, I didn't, or rather couldn't, focus on them as my gaze locked on the woman who was standing in the center.
She had pink hair and blue eyes, while she stood in her neat black-and-white maid uniform. The maid's uniform emphasized her curves; however, I couldn't help but frown.
'I feel like I've seen her before'
It wasn't just that, due to my enhanced senses, I felt a weird feeling surround her.
Feeling a pinch on my right side, I realized I was staring at her too long.
"Good evening, young master. My name is Victoria, and I am a servant of this mansion. These 2 are my sister's Iris," she gestured to the girl shy girl who quickly bowed, "and Violet," gesturing to the second girl, who also quickly bowed,"
A smile which I could only describe as seductive appeared on her lips; however, a chill went up my spin when I saw that smile.
But I returned it with a charming smile of my own.
"Well, I suppose it was worth the delay if I could have a meal with a few beauties," I commented while making my way to the head of the table.
***
Seeing the door open and a handsome man enter, Victoria was stunned for a second.
'He's handsome'
However, she quickly buried that thought as she saw him looking at her in a vulgar way. But as he was looking, a shiver went up her spine. Focusing on the 2 maids behind him.
'He has more servants?'
However, she noticed him looking at her sisters before he looked back at Victoria.
Putting on her best smile, she spoke, "Good evening, young master. My name is Victoria, and I am a servant of this mansion. These 2 are my sister's Iris," she toward her sister on the right, who quickly bowed, "and Violet," gesturing to her sister on the left, who also quickly bowed,"
Seeing that same lecturing smile appear on his face, he spoke, "Well, I suppose it was worth the delay if I could have a meal with a few beauties,"
Making his way to the head of the table, the white haired girl moved the seat back, allowing Aaron to sit.
Sitting, Aaron looked at the big steak on the plate.
"Since it's my first day, why don't you all take a seat and eat?" he said while putting a piece of steak in his mouth.
Seeing that the 2 other servants sat, Victoria looked at Adeline, and seeing her nod, she took a seat.
"Tell me, Adeline, how did you hide these girls from Zeke?"
"I purposely sent them out when young master Zeke was here or made them hide in my room," Adeline replied quickly
"Tsk, don't call that pathetic bastard a young master," Aaron replied, irritated.
"Yes, young master,"
Putting another piece of steak into his mouth, "Which school do you go to?"
"My sisters go to Saint Helena Academy; however, I am home-schooled."
"Home schooled?"
"Yes, due to some circumstances, I have been home-schooled."
"I see,"
Going into deep thought, Aaron continued to eat while being observed by Victoria. However, suddenly a song started to play, causing everyone to look at Violet. With a panicked expression, she pulled out her phone, which was ringing. However, in her panic, her phone slipped from her hands and landed on the table, revealing the name.
[David]
Panicked Violet tried to reach for her phone, but a sudden order caused her to freeze.
"Pick it up, and put it on loud speaker" Aaron glanced at the phone call with an interested expression.
Victoria, on the other hand, became tense along with the twins. However, Victoria quickly reacted, "Pick it up,"
Looking at Victoria with trembling eyes, Irs then picked up the phone as a male voice spoke from the other end.
"Hello, Iris?" Hearing the voice, Victoria noticed her sister smiled; however, she noticed Aaron's didn't change.
"Hey David, is there something wrong?"
"Ah, no, I just wanted to ask if you're free tomorrow. I have reserved a special reservation at Amber Paradise for my birthday. I was wondering if you and Vioelt wanted to come?"
Iris and Violet both looked at Adline, who, in return, looked at Aaron, who had a thoughtful expression on his face. He then nodded, causing the girls to smile brightly.
"Su-sure,"
Telling each other bye, Iris cut the phone; however, hearing what Aaron said next caused her to freeze.
"I'll be going what you tomorrow, I want to experience the world of commoners for once,"
Iris and Violet tried to find a way out of this, but were scared to speak.
"After going to my company, we'll go shopping for a gift," Hearing that, both Violet and Iris let out a sigh of relief, while a slightly worried expression appeared on her face.
After finishing his food, Aaron got up.
"Let's sleep, and you girls accompany me for a bit,"
When the girls heard that they all became tense, while Alura's gaze became cold.
Adeline sighed and looked at the 3 girls with a worried look.
***
Lying on my bed I looked at the ceiling of my room.
'Something's wrong'
From what I could infer, there were supposed to be 2 girls living here. The third one, Victoria, was new.
'Maybe she died in the mansion fire?'
However, I didn't remember anything about a second body.
'But she does look familiar,'
As I was thinking, however, my door opened, revealing the 3 girls.
Looking at the revealing lingerie that they had on, I could feel the blood rush down my body.
'Fuck their hot'
Seeing the twins behind tremble as they entered.
"Come closer and turn around," I stated plainly
All three of the girls did as I ordered, and I moved their hair away, revealing their necks. There was a symbol revealing a golden dragon in a roaring stance.
Taking out my token, I then put the token on the first girl, Iris's neck.
Looking at the symbol again, I watched as the symbol changed, revealing a capital "A" with wings sprouting out.
That was my mark; this meant that this girl was now my property, and her life was controlled by me. Doing the same to rest, I then looked at the token, which caused my eyes to widen.
"You two," I looked at the twin, "Go sleep in your room, you," I gestured to Victoria, "Stay."
The 2 looked at Victoria, who gave them a reassuring smile. The twins quickly left, causing Victoria to let out a sigh of relief before she turned toward me. But the next thing I said caused her to freeze.
"So, mind telling me why a Daelwyn is all the way over in Drakovia?"
