章 32: Mesmerizing Foxen

After arriving at the yoga class with Rienn and Claudia, I found myself in a very familiar situation. Yep, once again, I was surrounded by females. I can't say I didn't expect this, considering yoga is even less popular with men than swimming; however, I'm finding it hard to believe that there are no men at all taking these classes. I mean, aren't high-status men a ladies supposed to enjoy these kinds of leisure activities?

Upon entering, I saw Luna perk up when she spotted me, but her expression immediately turned sour.

'what's that about? Is she mad at me?'

I decided to ignore it for now and take a moment to look around. The room we were in was large and spacious. Although it was fancy like the rest of the school, it was pretty much bare aside from the mats laid out on the ground. A few moments later, a Foxen woman entered and introduced herself as our instructor.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Haruka Seiren, and I'll be your teacher for this class during your stay at our academy."

"Since most of you are first-timers here, our first two sessions will consist of some stretching to get everyone limber. Each of you will be working in groups of two, and you'll be picking partners shortly."

Haruka had a soft voice that also radiated authority, combined with the elegant way she carried herself; it made me think she was someone of high status. I don't know much about the Foxen since they tend to have isolated lifestyles. Even their home country finds them somewhat mysterious, and the only common knowledge about their race is that they live in a secret location somewhere in Oto.

The situation was the same as before, with an explanation about my presence and being put on the spot in front of everyone again. Only this time, Luna was subjected to it with me as a fellow adventurer course student.

Many of the girls reacted the same, but with Rienn and Claudia by my side to form a wall, none of them were very eager to approach. The pressure they were giving off towards the other girls made me think maybe are interested in me, but they had yet to do anything up to this point besides helping me out, so I quickly got rid of that thought.

After the introductions, Haruka had us pick stretching partners before we went to the locker room. Rienn and Claudia had already decided to be partners, so I walked over to Luna, who was a short distance away.

"Hey, Luna, want to pair up?"

"Oh, now you are interested?'

"Nothing. Sorry I already have a partner." She said, grabbing the girl closest to her. I raised my brow at her in confusion. This girl didn't have any idea what Luna was talking about.

"Right?"

"U-um. . ."

"Hm?"

"Y-yes, we are partners."

Did she intimidate her into agreeing? Whatever, I'm used to her being difficult at this point. I don't know what I did this time to set her off, but there is plenty of other people here to choose from. . .maybe not. Looking around, I noticed we had an odd number of students.

"Oh, Rune, are you all alone."

"Yeah, I guess I am. for some reason, my partner decided to go with someone else."

Haruka glanced over at Luna and smirked. It was subtle, but it didn't escape my attention.

"I'm sorry to hear that. We normally have 20 students in this yoga class, but one of them dropped out right before the start. If you don't mind, I can be your partner, that is, if you don't mind an older woman."

'These damn horny teachers, why does this keep. . '

"Wait, THIS yoga class? You mean there is more than one?"

"Of course. This academy has strict requirements for teaching, so there is usually only a single teacher for most classes. It's much easier to find instructors for recreational classes like this one, though, so there are a couple of different ones to choose from."

"That wouldn't happen to include swim class, would it?"

"Mhmm. We have several pools available for our swimming classes. Believe it or not, our swim classes are very popular among the students, and many boys and girls sign up each term. I like to take a dip myself every once in a while."

"Tch, I knew it. That woman really does love toying with me. . ." I said in a hushed voice

"Did you say something?"

"No, sorry. I would love to have you as my partner."

After taking Haruka up on her offer, I joined the others in the locker room while making a mental note to have a little chat with Vivienne. With Rienn and Claudia at my sides, no one stared or crowded around me. It was pretty convenient having these two around. I did notice a certain angry cat girl watching me change, but overall, it was a much more comfortable experience.

After stripping down to my compression tights and white shirt that I usually wear under the rest of my clothes, I exited to changing room with everyone else. It was planned out this way, but my adventuring attire is proving to be more versatile than I thought.

When we all returned from changing, Haruka used me for a quick demonstration on how to do the stretches everyone would be doing. We didn't do them for real since it would be pointless to do them twice, but she made sure to give everyone an example while explaining the muscle groups affected by each stretch.

Afterward, she dragged me away from the other students to a more private part of the room, and things quickly heated up. Haruka started me off with some overhead arm stretches while she stood behind me and held my waist.

"First, let's start with your arms," she said, grasping my hand and entwining her fingers with my own to guide my movements.

"Reach your arm up and arch your body to the side."

After doing as she instructed, Haruka let go of my hand. She ran her hand up my side to my chest and then up the rest of my arm while pressing her big mounds against my back.

"Can you feel the muscles in your upper body loosening up?"

"Yes."

"That's good." She said, leaning in to whisper the words into my ear.

Arms, legs, chest, and back. With each stretch we did, Haruka continuously tried to seduce me, touching my body as much as possible. And the worst part about it was that it was actually working.

To start, Haruka is already an extremely attractive woman. Her fiery orange hair that blends into her golden-colored fox ears is striking, and her narrow eyes and full lips make her look highly seductive. Not to mention, she had a perfect hourglass figure with wide hips, a plump butt, and a bust size rivaling Vivienne's.

Usually, this wouldn't be a problem. I mean, I've been around plenty of beautiful women since coming here. None of them have affected me like Haruka, though. Something about her slowly melts all my inhibitions and tempts me to give in to her advances. Any misgivings I might have about beastmen due to my bloodline are meaningless in front of her, and I feel a growing urge to ravage the seductive fox woman thoroughly.

When we finished my stretches, Haruka had me switch places to help her, and we went through various positions. Straightening her legs, she had me grasp her waist from behind and press down on her back as she reached for her toes to get the deepest stretch possible. she thrust her shapely ass against my covered erection in the process, making sure to wedge it firmly in between her cheeks as she slowly wiggled against it.

After holding the position for a few seconds, she ran her fingers up the sides of her legs. Before she fully stood up, Haruka looked back at me and licked her lips before arching her back inwards and spreading her cheeks with her hands. It was only covered by a tight, thin layer of fabric, so the gesture practically had the same effect as if she weren't wearing any clothes at all, and with that gesture, the last of my reason snapped.

I immediately pulled her up and pushed her against the wall while pinning her hands over her head. I know this is strange, and I know that whatever she's doing to affect me in such a way isn't normal. But the more I stare into her eyes, the more I feel mesmerized. The more I smell the sweet womanly scent of her body, the more I lose control. It doesn't matter that we are in class, and it doesn't matter that there are other students nearby.

"What's wrong?" she asks with upturned eyes. But contrary to her meek expression, I can tell there isn't a hint of fear. As I was leaning in to make a move, someone called out to us.

"Umm, Ms. Seiren, is everything okay?"

"Tch." Haruka clicks her tongue in annoyance.

"Yes, everything is fine. We just lost our balance while doing a difficult stretch. Is everyone all done?" she said, moving out of my grasp and putting on an amicable expression as she walked over to the girl.

"Mhmm. Everyone just finished. are we done for the day?"

"Done? Oh my, look at the time! Yes, that's all for today."

I was still standing in the same spot when Haruka called out to me.

"Are you okay, Rune? You look a little dazed. Are you feeling okay, dear?"

"Huh? Oh. Yea."

"Ok, then make sure to rest up at home. Mental fatigue is a clear sign that you are overworking yourself."

I went back to the changing room and then left to head home. On my way back, I spent some time contemplating everything that had happened today. I felt my sense of reason dulled. My strong sense of attraction to Haruka definitely wasn't normal. Well, not completely normal anyways. She's an attractive woman, and I was charmed by her from the start.

"Wait. Charmed?"

Could it be that she charmed me? That doesn't make sense, though. I should have resistance to such things. I mean, Fleur's charm has never affected me before; and from what I know, the effect is supposed to be strong.

"I'll have to ask Vivienne tomorrow. one things' for sure, though, I need to take care of this," I said, looking down at the erection in my pants.

"A couple of people have already looked at me like I'm some kind of pervert."

I shifted my cloak a little so that it covered my front.

"That's better."

"Hmm. . ."

"You know what? This might be a good time to put my plan into motion."

With that thought, I made my way over to the red-light district. Believe it or not, prostitution is considered a respectable trade and is important for the various beastmen races to deal with their heat periods and sex drive. The workers get paid well and are treated like regular employees.

Due to the presence of magic, it is very safe as well. Cleanse spells, contraceptive spells, and a few others remedy any such issues an industry like this might suffer. There are some 'less savory' establishments that act outside the law, but they are few and far between and are cracked down on heavily.

Since I have never been to this kind of establishment, I decided to look for a concierge, and she promptly recommended an establishment based on my budget. When I entered, the place was quite different from what I imagined. The lobby was clean, and the whole place looked more like a nice hotel than anything else. There wasn't debauchery everywhere you looked, and all the staff were fully clothed.

After looking around a bit, I walked to the front desk, where an attendant greeted me.

"Hello, sir. Is this your first time? What kind of girl are you looking for? Do you have any preferences for specific types of play?"

--------------

"Shit, shit, shit."

It's evening now, and I just teleported back to my dorm house. Needless to say, my plan didn't go well. After asking for my preferences, I was shown a roster of all the available girls in which the attendant pointed out which girls she recommended.

I ended up going with a pretty girl who was about three years older than me named Nadia. She did everything she could to take of me but just like with Stella; I wasn't able to finish, let alone get a full reaction. Regardless, Nadia had the time of her life and even apologized, saying it felt more like she was the customer.

I had no desire to go inside the house just yet, so I sat on a garden bench to gaze up at the stars. Looking at the constellations reminds me of the girl I left back home who was named after them. I felt a sense of sadness welling up inside me.

"Is there really no other way?"

While staring up at the night sky, feeling lost, I felt a pair of comforting arms wrap around me from behind to embrace me.
