Chapter 22: Stealing Fragrance in the Dark Room

When Zhang Wen returned to his cabin at Almisius Academy, there wasn’t much time left before the governor’s banquet. He had just changed out of the casual clothes he wore at the arena and hadn’t yet put on the instructor’s uniform he’d only received a few days ago when Amilis appeared outside his residence.

“Teacher Zhang!” Amilis called out with a bright smile, walking straight into his room.

The little beauty had already changed into the female student uniform of Almisius Academy—a style reminiscent of women’s military attire on Earth. Beneath the neat, fitted jacket was a skirt that ended about ten centimeters above the knee.

Compared to her training outfit, this uniform didn’t accentuate Amilis’s mature, peach-like figure, but it highlighted her long, slender legs. The predominantly pink color gave it a hint of seductive allure.

“Hm?” Seeing Zhang Wen shirtless and wearing only a pair of shorts, the young beauty froze for a moment. But she quickly recovered, averting her gaze to the side.

“Amilis, barging into a man’s room so casually—aren’t you afraid something might happen?” Zhang Wen suddenly turned around, smiling as he asked her.

“Who knew you were taking a shower!” Amilis puffed out her cheeks, pouting as if annoyed.

“Oh? So you’re blaming me now? Who told you not to knock?” Zhang Wen raised the corner of his mouth, giving her a nonchalant smile.

“Fine, fine! I know Teacher Zhang isn’t that kind of person,” Amilis said, finally turning her gaze back to him. At the same time, she crossed her right leg over her left. As she lifted her leg, not only did her youthful, slender legs become more exposed, but a fleeting glimpse of black lace under her short skirt flashed before Zhang Wen’s eyes.

“Hm?” Her movement caught Zhang Wen off guard. He wasn’t sure if the little beauty had done it on purpose.

But Amilis quickly pressed down her skirt, blocking his view entirely. From the sly glint in her eyes, Zhang Wen realized she had indeed done it intentionally.

The little beauty was clearly trying to get back at him for something that happened in the dorms last time. She teased him with a brief glimpse, only to cover up immediately, obviously wanting to leave him frustrated but unable to do anything about it—a perfect revenge for her previous encounter in his room.

However, Amilis likely hadn’t anticipated that her small gesture, combined with her provocative attitude, would stir a subtle urge to dominate within Zhang Wen. He closed his eyes briefly to rein in his emotions before smiling faintly and asking, “How do you know I’m not that kind of person?” He found it odd—Amilis knew he wasn’t exactly a man of great restraint, so why would she dare provoke him like this?

Amilis completely misread the meaning behind his expression. Seeing him close his eyes, she thought he was nervous about being exposed.

“Teacher Zhang, you’re still playing dumb! Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Teacher Linoya?” Thinking she’d caught his weakness, Amilis stifled a laugh, lowering her voice smugly.

“Linoya? What does this have to do with her?” Zhang Wen was momentarily puzzled.

“Haha! Teacher Zhang, you’re so cute!” The little beauty finally burst into unrestrained laughter. “I saw with my own eyes Teacher Linoya run into your changing room when you were alone, and it took her a long time to…” Amilis, caught up in her smugness, stopped mid-sentence as she realized she’d let something slip. She quickly shut her mouth, continuing to smile at Zhang Wen.

At this point, both Amilis’s strange confidence and the odd scene he’d witnessed at the arena suddenly made sense. Clearly, when Zhang Wen had taken Linoya to the fourth floor, Amilis hadn’t followed his instructions to continue challenging her opponents. Instead, she had secretly followed them to the fourth-floor hall.

She saw the intimate interactions between Zhang Wen and Linoya, and when Linoya entered his room alone, Amilis naturally assumed Linoya had become his girlfriend after his pursuit.

“So that’s how it is,” Zhang Wen said, the corners of his mouth curving upward. “Not only did you fail to complete the training I assigned, but you also followed me and Teacher Linoya on your own accord—and now you dare admit it to my face. Aren’t you afraid of being punished?”

“Of course I’m afraid!” Amilis put on a scared expression, standing up and looking at Zhang Wen pitifully. “How does Teacher Zhang plan to punish Amilis? If you’re not afraid of Teacher Linoya finding out, you can do whatever you want! …Hehe, does Teacher Zhang want me to bend over and let you spank me?”

Seeing that Zhang Wen didn’t react to her teasing, Amilis grew even more convinced she had the upper hand. Unable to contain her glee at pulling off her prank, she deliberately leaned over the table, raising her hips provocatively under her short skirt and swaying them slightly in front of him.

When Amilis stood upright, her uniform had almost completely concealed her figure. But as she bent over, the slightly loose neckline of her top fell open. The little beauty, who had been facing sideways, turned her head toward Zhang Wen with a charming smile. His gaze naturally followed the open neckline, only to discover that beneath her uniform, she was wearing an incredibly sexy, sheer yellow bra!

The thin layer of fabric did little to conceal the allure beneath her neckline. Even more striking, the bra seemed a size too small for her, tightly binding her fully developed curves. Under the combined effect of the snug bra and gravity, her voluptuous breasts seemed to burst forth, almost fully exposed before Zhang Wen’s eyes.

The sight of her soft, fair, yet firm curves, along with the deep cleavage that seemed to draw one in, would make even the most restrained man’s blood race, instinctively wanting to grab and savor them.

As for her lower body, Amilis deliberately parted her legs slightly. Her long, slender legs—her proudest feature—were already barely covered by the skirt, which ended ten centimeters above her knees. With her movement, the skirt rode up a few more centimeters, and the slits on either side stretched open.

This revealed not only her delicate calves but also most of her shapely thighs, previously hidden by the skirt, now laid bare for Zhang Wen to admire freely. If his gaze followed her legs upward, he could see her once-youthful hips, now accentuated by the tight skirt and her deliberate teasing, exuding a sensual allure that rivaled even Linoya’s.

You brought this on yourself. Zhang Wen gritted his teeth, his breathing growing slightly heavier.

Amilis’s enticing figure and provocative pose instantly rekindled his memories. The desire he had suppressed after Linoya’s teasing at the arena erupted all at once. Her final words added a tinge of uncontrollable, aggressive impulse to the desire coursing through him.

“You’re willing to accept any punishment I give?” Zhang Wen asked with a smile, though his eyes now held a hint of danger.

But Amilis didn’t notice her mistake. Still swaying her hips, she continued to tease him in a coy voice, chuckling at his apparent frustration. “Of course! Whatever Teacher Zhang says, I’ll do!”

“Very well. Let’s go with your suggestion, then. But I don’t like anything getting in the way when I spank someone. Take off your clothes,” Zhang Wen said calmly, as if it were a trivial matter.

“Uh… w-what?” Amilis’s smile froze at his words. She was utterly stunned.

The little beauty, who had thought she could toy with Zhang Wen without consequence, was completely unprepared for his bold counterattack. Caught off guard, she fell into a flustered panic.

“You heard me,” Zhang Wen said, his voice steady but his gaze piercing, making Amilis even more frantic.

Though she stopped swaying her hips, the panicked expression on her face only fueled Zhang Wen’s growing sense of conquest.

Under his intense stare, Amilis took a long time to calm down.

He’s bluffing! The thought struck her as she regained her composure. Glancing at Zhang Wen’s smiling eyes, her confidence grew.

Fine! Let’s see who can hold out longer! Convinced of her judgment, Amilis bit her lip, refusing to back down.

“Alright, I’ll do it,” she said, pouting and standing up with a pitiful expression. She began unbuttoning her pink jacket one by one. Soon, it fell to the floor, followed by her skirt sliding down her long legs.

Bending down to pick up her clothes, Amilis leaned over the table again, her hips raised high, now clad only in a pink thong that barely covered anything. After completing the action, she gave Zhang Wen a resentful glance, her expressive eyes seemingly saying, “Happy now?”

But Amilis, secretly smug and thinking she’d outwitted him, didn’t expect what came next—a cold, “Keep going. Who told you to stop?”

“I…” Amilis was stunned again.

Though she wasn’t an innocent girl and had shared a night with Zhang Wen before, undressing completely in front of a man and willingly displaying her body was something she’d never done. The overwhelming sense of shame and submission was beyond anything she’d imagined. Worse, she hadn’t expected Zhang Wen to actually dare demand she strip entirely!

Isn’t he afraid of Linoya finding out? What do I do?

In that moment, fear, panic, and shock overwhelmed her, tears welling up in her eyes. But her pleading gaze met Zhang Wen’s cold, unyielding stare, devoid of any pity.

What stung even more than the shame of submission was that Zhang Wen seemed utterly unmoved by her beautiful body. In his gaze, Amilis saw no trace of desire or even appreciation.

Am I really that much worse than Linoya? A sudden surge of jealousy and defiance rose within her, emotions she didn’t fully understand.

“I understand,” she said, biting her lip and meeting his gaze. Standing up again, she reached behind her back and unhooked her bra. The pale yellow fabric fluttered to the ground, her full, tender breasts springing free, standing proudly in the air.

Catching a fleeting spark of heat in Zhang Wen’s eyes, Amilis bit her lip harder.

His gaze followed her hands as they slid over her smooth abdomen to the perfect curve of her waist. She grabbed the ties of her thong, casting him one last pleading look. Finally, she closed her eyes, tugged gently, and the last piece of fabric slid down her legs. Her flawless, jade-like body was now fully exposed before him. But it wasn’t over yet.

Under Zhang Wen’s gaze, Amilis bent over the table a third time, raising her hips high, awaiting her punishment. If the first two times she’d done this with a playful intent to tease him, this third time, her mind was devoid of mischief.

Her vulnerable, unfeigned expression pushed Zhang Wen’s sense of conquest to its peak. He slowly approached her, his eyes tracing her long legs upward, studying her perfect form.

Amilis met his gaze defiantly, her seductive collarbone accentuated by her turned head. As his eyes roamed her body, she felt a hint of pride. Suppressing her slight embarrassment, she deliberately angled herself to display her most alluring features.

But to her shock, just as she thought she’d captivated him, Zhang Wen coldly raised his right hand.

“Ugh…!” Before she could even feel pain on her full hips, tears nearly spilled from her eyes.

It wasn’t the prospect of being spanked or the shame that made her want to cry. It was the unbearable frustration and defiance—she’d gone this far, exposing her most vulnerable self to him, yet Zhang Wen showed no reaction! How could she be so lacking in charm?

But his hand never landed. Seeing her half-turned body, her resentful yet desperate attempt to please him, Zhang Wen could no longer suppress his desire. It erupted fully.

He leaned down, his right arm wrapping around her slender waist, his left hooking her legs. “Ah!” Amid her startled cry, he roughly lifted her into his arms. Touching her silky skin, his desire blazed to its peak. Staring into her aggrieved eyes, he suddenly kissed her lush lips.

The sudden, deep kiss threw Amilis into a momentary panic. But as realization hit, the tears she’d held back flooded out, along with all her pent-up grievances. A strange, exhilarating sensation filled her, bringing an unprecedented comfort while her tears flowed uncontrollably.

She struggled petulantly in his arms, her slender legs kicking, her soft body writhing. But his suffocating kiss soon left her dazed, as if intoxicated. She responded fervently, wrapping her arms around him, pressing her tender breasts against his chest, and even extending her tongue to entwine with his recklessly.

In that moment, Zhang Wen felt like a fire consuming her, her body burning. His hands roamed her smooth back, her alluring chest, her proud legs, her firm hips, and the parts that made her most shy and flustered…

Amilis had never experienced such a strange sensation. His hands seemed to wield magic, stripping her of control over her body. Wherever they touched, it felt as if her soul followed. As they moved from her delicate feet up her shapely calves, a feeling both terrifying and eagerly anticipated began to build within her.

When his hands reached her sensitive thighs, that sensation surpassed her limits. Yet it continued to escalate rapidly…

The loss of control over her body pushed her fear to its peak. In that instant, the overwhelming sensation exploded, enveloping her. Warm liquid surged between her legs, and an irresistible wave of pleasure drowned her entirely.

Moaning as if crying, she clung to Zhang Wen, her skin flushed a rosy hue. She pressed her body against him, rubbing her full breasts against his chest. Her legs clamped tightly around his hand, her delicate feet stretched taut. She lost all awareness, becoming a slave to desire and Zhang Wen.

She didn’t even know when he placed her on the bed or when she left countless scratches on his back. All she knew was that the soul-shattering pleasure, the fiery sensation consuming every part of her body, was something she’d never forget.

“Go take a shower and put your clothes back on,” Zhang Wen said, placing her discarded clothes on a chair by the table as she opened her eyes.

“Teacher Zhang!” His intense gaze made her uneasy, and she quickly curled up, covering her chest with her arms and pouting at him. But as she sat up, she noticed the bed was a mess, the sheets soaked and emanating a scent that made her blush.

“Got it. If you still want to go to the governor’s mansion, you’d better hurry. We don’t have much time,” Zhang Wen said, pointing to the psychic clock on the desk before heading to the bathroom behind a curtain.

As he turned, Amilis saw the countless scratches on his back. Fragments of her near-frenzied actions flooded back, making her cheeks burn. She glanced at the clock he’d pointed to.

“Ah!” As expected, she let out a startled cry upon seeing the time.

What’s there to be afraid of? He’s already seen everything! Jumping off the bed, still naked, she stomped her delicate foot and followed him into the bathroom.

In the bathroom, Zhang Wen didn’t do anything more to her. When they emerged, Amilis seemed to carry a faint trace of disappointment. Dressed again, her skin still slightly flushed, she exuded an even more captivating charm than before.

“All set! Let’s go,” Zhang Wen said, nodding with a satisfied smile after inspecting her.

“Perverted Teacher Zhang, if we’re late, it’s all your fault,” Amilis said, glancing at the clock and rolling her eyes at him.

“Watch your words. Don’t forget, you still owe me a spanking,” Zhang Wen said with a slight smile, casting a mischievous glance at her hips.

“Ugh… always bullying me,” Amilis muttered, instinctively covering her bottom and falling silent.
