Ignoring the sound of her wooden door being opened, Dara kept her eyes closed trying to go back to sleep. Soon, she heard her curtains being opened as the rays of sun flooded her room in an instance. She mentally, sighed yet kept her eyes closed hoping that she could just sleep more.

"Good morning, my lady." His deep voice entered her ears that she quickly covered herself with her comforter. "You need to get up, it's your first day in school." Dara mentally rolled her eyes before she removed the comforter over her and glared at her servant. 

"This isn't my first day in school." There was disdain in her voice. "I don't even know how may times have I done this." She added rolling her eyes. Seunghyun just looked at him sympathetically which pissed her more.

He said as Dara just lifted her arms allowing the latter to pull her silk garments off her revealing her body to him. Her smooth white skin, her just right sized and her cute . 

"I'll be removing your underwear." He said without any malice. He had seen her so many times in his lifetime that he got used to it already but there are times that when he remembered the first time he did, he felt embarrassed at how he acted like a middle schooler back then even though he had few girlfriends and it wasn't the first time he has seen a woman ,

Without any words, Dara lifted her legs as the lad hooked his fingers on the garter of her and pulled it off her. After discarding the small piece of cloth, he started bathing her like what he had been doing since he vowed to served he
