Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest

Chapter 905 207.6 - InfernoKnight

Irina's lips pressed against his, the heat of the moment swallowing her whole.

She expected hesitation. Expected him to freeze, maybe even pull away.

But Astron didn't move.

Didn't resist.

Didn't stop her.

His breath was steady, warm against her skin, and the realization sent something sharp, something hot curling deep in her stomach.

'Damn it…'

She was the one who started this, but now—now she felt like she was the one losing control.

Her fingers curled against his collar, tightening ever so slightly.

She kissed him again, harder this time.

And still—Astron let her.

Let her pour everything into it, let her grip him like she was trying to anchor herself, let her press closer without a single word of resistance.

Because this wasn't just impulse.

It wasn't just heat.

It was everything—everything she had been holding back all night.

All the lingering glances, the way her pulse spiked whenever he spoke in that unreadable, low voice of his, the frustration of wanting something but refusing to acknowledge it—

She had buried it. Suppressed it. Told herself this wasn't why she had invited him over, wasn't why she had made him stay so late.

And yet—

She wanted this.

Had wanted it from the moment she realized how much she enjoyed just being near him.

Astron finally moved.

Not to pull away.

Not to break the kiss.

But just enough to tilt his head slightly, letting her deepen it—just enough for her to feel the shift in his breath, the barely-there tension in his jaw.

Irina's chest rose and fell, her heart hammering against her ribs.

'Why…?'

Why wasn't he stopping her?

Why wasn't he teasing her?
