Chapter 14: 3.4 Loophole
Ezraphel hummed a tune as she finished washing up. She had not gotten used to having such a small tub but at least the soaps and oils made up for this inadequacy. At the moment she wore nothing save for a towel, they had yet to solve her clothing situation although she didn't really mind the lack of clothes, in fact she rather liked going around naked and despite his vehemence she knew her Stanley liked her naked too.
'And tonight I am going to prove it.'
She reached the door and tried the knob only to feel it stuck "huh?"
That can't be right.
Knocking on the door she called out "Stanley, your door is locked."
"I know" came the slightly muffled reply.
"Can you open it so I can come in?"
"Nope"
"You promised I could use your room to sleep"
"All I said was that I wouldn't run you out, I never said anything about leaving the door open for you"
Ezraphel's jaw went slack, she ran through the conversation and her eye twitched in built up frustration "Stanley, I demand you let me in this instant!" she banged on the door quite loudly.
"Hey, you break my door and I break you!"
That threat made no sense, especially since he could not even hope to match her in strength, yet she ceased her hard knocks. In frustration she stomped her foot and stormed off with fists clenched while muttering under her breath. Her wings were tucked in but the full extent of her frustration could be seen in her tail which lashed out like a whip.
Stanley lay on his bed, quite comfortable with how he handled himself. His door was barricaded with his bed on the far side and he watched from his tablet as a frustrated and towel clad Ezraphel stomp towards the guest bedroom.
"Hehehe" he chuckled to himself, putting away the tablet to rest his weary head with a pleasant sigh.
Sometime Later…
She had no idea how long it has been since she was at this, it was frustrating but the work had to be done if she wanted to gain access to her well earned prize. Ezraphel used what sliver of mana she recovered on a lock opening spell, a simple concept turned overly complex by her lack of power. It was this constant reminder which had her doing this rather than the prospect of snuggling with her Stanley.
Although that was a big enough motivator in and of itself, this one made it just a bit more urgent for her to do this otherwise she would have been…content to play the longer game.

"Yes!" she whisper shouted and opened the door or at least attempted to "what?"
It wasn't that the door was locked, more like there was something obstructing it from behind. Ezraphel rolled her eyes in consternation because of course he would barricade the door, not that it mattered much. Really the hard part was opening the door without waking the room's occupant, there was a reason why she was doing this while he was asleep.
Twenty minutes, it took her twenty minutes of careful maneuvering before she got fed up and spent her remaining sliver of mana on a silencing spell. Without the threat of noise Ezraphel easily pushed the door open enough to squeeze through and close it behind her. Thoroughly fed up with having to go through all of this she did not hesitate in advancing to her destination.
Ezraphel loomed over Stanley's sleeping form like a specter and stared. There are so many things she could do to him even without magic…
*Yawn~*
However she was legitimately tired so rather than perving on her husband-to-be she decided to carefully insert herself onto the bed and wrap him into a bear hug just like last time. There was a pang of disappointment when he didn't return the gesture and a bit of hurt when he turned away from her but that was mollified because it made spooning him much easier.
'This is nice~'
