chapter 9
As they stepped into the recently unveiled hot spring, its breathtaking beauty captivated them instantly. To their surprise, the place was empty of any other customers, and instead, they were greeted by the chairman himself. It seemed that Chika had reserved the entire hot spring for their exclusive use that day.
Following the instructions, they proceeded to the locker room to change into their bathing attire. While changing, Mizuki caught everyone's attention with her striking hourglass figure. Unlike the others, her slender hands showed no signs of muscular growth, and her pale white skin, which was rarely exposed due to her preference for oversized clothing, highlighted her figure in a unique way. This distinct aspect set her apart from those who were regulars at the gym, emphasizing her natural grace and elegance.
As all of them eagerly prepared to run towards Mizuki in order to offer their praises for her body proportions, Mizuki was in the midst of slowly removing her clothes to put on a towel. However, in an unexpected turn of events, a sensation akin to being pricked by hundreds of sharp needles enveloped them. Startled, they swiftly pivoted around to find Chika's intense gaze fixed upon them, serving as a stern warning not to approach Mizuki or make any physical contact with her. Despite Chika's clear admonition, Nozomi bravely ventured forward and delicately draped an additional towel over Mizuki's shoulders, showing her protective nature and defiance in the face of danger. With a mutual understanding of the situation, they collectively made their way towards the hotspring room, their hearts racing with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension.
The hot spring room left a deep sense of amazement for everyone who stepped inside. It truly took their breath away as they witnessed the continuous flow of hot water cascading down the walls, almost resembling a majestic waterfall. A large, clear mirror reflected their astonishment back at them, while beyond the room's boundaries, a picturesque scene of traditional trees and blooming flowers enhanced the overall beauty of the natural setting. The ambiance transported them to a peaceful sanctuary, far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
One by one, they all hurried into the room, shedding their outer layers of clothing in excitement. Even Chika and Nozomi eagerly joined in, captivated by the allure of the hot springs. Mizuki, however, took a more cautious approach. She moved forward slowly, her slender feet tentatively dipping into the warm water, as though afraid to disturb its serene surface. Unlike her companions, she chose to retain her outer layer, perhaps to preserve a sense of personal comfort in this tranquil environment.
Chika and Sakura decided to sit together, while Nozomi and Mizuki stayed close beside each other. The rest of their group formed their own little cluster. After some time, Mizuki began to feel lightheaded from staying too long in the hot spring – it was her first time experiencing such intense heat compared to the rest.
Nozomi, concerned for Mizuki, attempted to help her to their room, but Chika intervened, motioning for her friend to distract Mizuki with her gaze. Taking charge, Chika carried Mizuki to their accommodations. Witnessing this scene, Sakura couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy creeping in as she sensed a deeper connection between Chika and Mizuki. Her eyes burned with envy, contemplating the dynamics at play.
Chika proceeded with gentle, deliberate steps, ensuring each employee received clear instructions not to allow anyone access to the 3rd floor. Every staff member comprehended the directive and followed through promptly. Carefully, Chika then proceeded to tenderly position Mizuki on the plush master bed, treating her with the utmost care and affection as if Mizuki held an irreplaceable place in her heart. Taking a seat beside Mizuki, Chika herself felt a mix of emotions, puzzled by her own actions. Countless inquiries flooded her mind, pondering, "Why am I acting this way when she is already in a relationship?" The struggle to control her emotions around Mizuki remained a perplexing enigma, leaving Chika grappling with the complexities of her feelings and the confusion of her desires.
As she turned her eyes towards Mizuki's face, she couldn't help but notice the lusciousness of Mizuki's lips, tempting her with an irresistible allure. Intrusive thoughts flooded her mind, urging her to act upon her desires, like wanting to kiss those inviting lips until they bled, or to explore every inch of Mizuki's body with fervor - from her ears, mouth, and hands down to her legs, focusing most intently on her delicate neck.
While contemplating these intense feelings, Chika couldn't help but acknowledge that Mizuki was just a beta, a status that left her longing for Mizuki to be an omega, someone she could completely possess. Thoughts of marking Mizuki as her own by biting into her neck lingered in Chika's mind, a primal desire she struggled to suppress.
Unconsciously, Chika began to exude her pheromones, a natural response to her overwhelming emotions. However, she quickly reined in this unintentional display as the realization of her actions washed over her.
She slowly leaned in towards Mizuki, positioning her head in front of Mizuki's with an air of passion. As their lips met in a fervent kiss, the world around them seemed to fade away. Sensing a surge of desire, she paused the kiss, her fingers now gentle as they traced along Mizuki's delicate skin, marveling at its softness. Each touch ignited a new wave of sensation within her, almost as if the skin itself was whispering its secrets to her.
Startled by the discovery of a mole upon Mizuki's body, a magnetic pull seemed to emanate from this subtle imperfection, beckoning her to explore further. Yielding to this irresistible call, she tenderly brushed her lips against Mizuki's bosom, the lack of volume not hindering its allure. It was a moment of pure indulgence, where the boundaries of desire blurred and her senses were overwhelmed by the intoxicating temptation in front of her.
After half an hour had passed, Mizuki slowly opened her eyes to see Chika lying beside her. Initially contemplating getting up, she hesitated upon noticing the subtle frown forming on Chika's features. As seconds ticked by, a sudden surge of potent pheromones permeated the room, catching mizuki off guard and altering the tranquil atmosphere.
