The staircase creaked violently under Gu Ling's boots as she sprinted upward, taking the steps two at a time. The fireball in her hand cast wild, dancing shadows against the rotting walls, but the sound guiding her was far more terrifying than any darkness.
It wasn't a scream. It was a moan—a long, broken, high-pitched wail of surrender echoing from the second floor.
"Leng Yue!" Gu Ling shouted, panic tightening her chest. "Hang on! I'm coming!"
She burst onto the landing and skidded into the Hall of Mirrors. The air here was freezing, a sharp contrast to the humid rot below, but the smell... the smell was unmistakable. It was the scent of musk, sweat, and female arousal.
"Yue, are you—"
Gu Ling froze. The fire in her hand flickered and died, extinguished by sheer shock.
In the center of the hall, surrounded by infinite reflections, lay the Ice Princess. Leng Yue, the prodigy of the sword, the coldest woman in the Academy, was sprawled on the dusty floorboards like a common harlot. Her robes were torn open, her pants pulled down to her ankles.
Her legs were spread wide in a vulgar 'M' shape. Her head was thrown back, eyes rolled into her skull, mouth hanging open in a silent scream of ecstasy.
And her hand.
Gu Ling watched in horror as Leng Yue's hand moved with a blur of speed between her legs.
Squelch. Splat. Squelch.
The sound was wet and loud in the quiet room.
"Kai... fuck... harder..." Leng Yue babbled deliriously, her hips bucking against her own wrist.
"What the fuck..." Gu Ling whispered, her stomach churning. "Yue! Snap out of it!"
She rushed forward and grabbed Leng Yue's shoulder, shaking her violently.
"Wake up! We're on a mission! What are you doing?!"
Leng Yue didn't even register her presence. Her body was slippery with sweat. She simply shrugged off Gu Ling's hand and drove her fingers deeper, moaning louder. She was gone—lost in a labyrinth of her own corrupted mind.
Gu Ling scrambled back, stumbling to her feet. Her breathing was ragged. This wasn't a fight. She could burn monsters, she could slash ghosts, but this? This was insanity.
"I need help," Gu Ling gasped. "I can't... I need Teacher. I need Kai."
She spun around, intending to bolt back to the stairs.
She ran straight into a wall of solid, warm muscle.
"Going somewhere, brat?"
A heavy hand clamped down on her shoulder. The grip was iron-hard, the fingers digging into her trapezius with a familiarity that sent a jolt of lightning down her spine.
Gu Ling looked up, her heart hammering against her ribs.
"Kai?" she breathed. "How did you... were you already here?"
She stepped back, trying to put distance between them, but her eyes betrayed her. They traveled down.
He was standing in the shadows of the mirrors. He wasn't wearing his uniform. He wasn't wearing anything.
Gu Ling's eyes widened to the size of saucers.
He was naked. Gloriously, terrifyingly naked. His body was a landscape of corded muscle and veins, glistening as if oiled. His chest was broad, tapering down to a waist that looked strong enough to break her.
And there, jutting out from his hips, was the weapon.
It was hard. It was angry. It throbbed with a slow, heavy beat, twitching in the cold air. The head was a dark, swollen mushroom, weeping a single drop of clear fluid. It was massive—far bigger than anything Gu Ling had ever seen in the biology textbooks.
"W-What the fuck are you doing, Kai?!" Gu Ling shrieked, her voice cracking. She tried to cover her eyes, but her fingers parted involuntarily. She couldn't look away. "Get dressed! We are on a mission! Are you crazy?!"
The naked Kai didn't move. He smirked—that same arrogant, infuriating smirk he had worn in the arena.
"Mission?" he scoffed, his voice a low, gravelly rumble that vibrated in her chest. "The only mission here is figuring out who needs to be disciplined."
He took a step toward her. The erection bobbed with the movement.
"Remember the arena, Gu Ling?"
Gu Ling flinched. "Shut up! That was... that was a duel!"
"Was it?" Kai purred. He loomed over her, backing her up until her back hit one of the cold mirrors. "I remember you lying across my lap. I remember pulling down those little pants. I remember the sound your ass made when I hit it."
Smack.
He slapped the mirror next to her head. Gu Ling jumped, a small whimper escaping her throat.
"You acted so tough," Kai whispered, leaning down until his face was inches from hers. "But when my hand hit your ass... you liked it, didn't you?"
"I didn't!" Gu Ling yelled, her face burning hotter than her fire ever could. "I hated it! You humiliated me!"
"Liar," Kai hissed. "I felt you shiver. I felt you get wet. You're not a warrior, Gu Ling. You're just a bratty little slut who needs a master to put her in her place."
"No..."
"Look at you," he mocked, gesturing to her trembling legs. "You're already dripping."
Gu Ling squeezed her thighs together. He was right. A sudden, violent heat had exploded in her pussy. It was an itch—a burning, frantic need that made her knees weak. Her panties felt suddenly soaked, the fabric clinging uncomfortably to her swollen lips.
"I... I am not..."
"Look at it," Kai commanded, pointing to his cock.
Gu Ling looked. It was right there. Eye level. It twitched again, pulsing with blood.
"It's hard for you, Gu Ling," Kai whispered. "It wants to ruin you. It wants to stretch that tight, bratty little pussy until you can't walk."
He moved his hips. The head of his cock brushed against the fabric of her uniform trousers.
Friction.
The contact was electric. Gu Ling's breath hitched. Her toes curled inside her boots so hard they cramped.
"You want this?" Kai asked, his voice dropping to a seductive whisper. "You want my cock inside your pussy? You want me to finish what I started in the arena?"
Gu Ling's mind was screaming YES. Her body was screaming YES. But her pride held on by a thread.
"No," she gasped, tears pricking her eyes. "I don't... I don't want it..."
Kai's expression went cold.
"Fine."
He stepped back. The warmth of his body vanished, replaced by the biting cold of the room.
"If you don't want it, I'll go find someone who does. Maybe the Teacher."
He turned around. He started to walk away, his magnificent back muscles rippling.
"Then it's okay. I will go."
Gu Ling stood there, bereft. The loss was immediate and agonizing. The burning in her crotch didn't stop; it intensified. The thought of him leaving—of him taking that massive cock away—was worse than death.
She tried to focus. She tried to summon her Qi. But all she could feel was the empty space between her legs.
Her toes curled again. Her legs moved on their own.
"No..." she whispered.
It wasn't enough. He was fading into the shadows.
"No!" Gu Ling cried out, reaching forward. "Don't go, Kai!"
She lunged. She tried to grab his arm. She wanted to pull him back, to rip his clothes off, to beg him to use her.
Her fingers closed around his bicep.
Pop.
He vanished.
Her hand grasped nothing but empty, cold air.
"Kai?"
Gu Ling stumbled forward, off-balance. She fell to her knees on the hard wooden floor.
"Where...?"
She looked around frantically. The hall was empty, save for the moaning Leng Yue behind her. The naked Kai was gone. It had been an illusion. A phantom born of the dormitory's curse.
But the arousal he had ignited was real.
"Ahhh!"
Gu Ling clutched her stomach. The heat in her pussy flared into an inferno. It was unbearable. It felt like fire ants were crawling under her skin, demanding release.
"It hurts... it hurts so much..."
She didn't think. She didn't care about Leng Yue or the mission.
She ripped at her belt. Her hands were frantic, clumsy. She shoved her trousers down to her knees. She didn't bother taking them off completely.
She jammed her hand into her panties.
Squelch.
She was flooded.
"Fuck!" Gu Ling groaned, finding her clit immediately.
She didn't use finesse. She rubbed herself with aggressive, frantic strokes. She ground her palm against her wet mound, her hips snapping forward to meet her hand.
"Come back... come back and fuck me..." she sobbed, hallucinating the feeling of his cock hitting her cervix.
She lay back on the floor, just a few feet away from the Ice Princess. Two of the strongest students in the first year, reduced to quivering, masturbating messes on a dusty floor.
Gu Ling squeezed her eyes shut. She thrust two fingers inside herself.
"Tight... so tight..."
She fucked herself violently, her other hand pinching her nipples through her tunic.
"Kai! Kai! KAI!"
She screamed his name as she chased the orgasm.
