Dark Lord Seduction System: Taming Wives, Daughters, Aunts, and CEOs

Chapter 144: Attraction



The infirmary smelled like antiseptic—the universal, bureaucratic clean that erases history and invoices you for the privilege.

Nurse Luna gestured toward the examination table where I'd laid after Jack's assault, back when I was still just regular Peter Carter instead of the enhanced version building empires and acquisitions in the background.

'Feels like that happened years ago instead of days.' Time sure cooks its books.

"Take a seat, Peter," Nurse Luna said, pulling up my file on her computer. "I need to complete your follow-up examination from the incident earlier this week. How are you feeling? Any lingering pain, headaches, vision problems?"

I settled onto the examination table, noting how her professional demeanor created this interesting contrast with the chaos she'd caused in the classroom just by existing. "Feeling great, actually. Better than I have in years."

'Understatement of the century. I feel like I could bench press a car and solve quantum physics while doing it.'

She raised an eyebrow, pulling on latex gloves with practiced efficiency. "That's good to hear. Jack Morrison's punch was significant enough to warrant monitoring for concussion symptoms. Let me check your pupils."

Nurse Luna moved closer, holding a small flashlight. This close, I could see details that the boys in class could only fantasize about—the way her dark eyelashes framed perfectly shaped eyes, the slight freckle near her left ear, the professional focus that somehow made her even more attractive.

'She's stunning, but more importantly, she's competent. There's something about intelligence combined with beauty that's infinitely more appealing than just looks alone.'

"Follow the light with your eyes," she instructed, moving the beam left and right. "Good. Pupils are responsive and equal. Any nausea or dizziness since the incident?"

"None at all," I replied honestly. My enhanced physiology had probably healed any damage within hours of it happening.

"Excellent. Now let me check for any remaining bruising or swelling."

Her hands were gentle but thorough as she examined the areas where Jack's fist had connected. The professional touch was completely different from the desperate and lustful touches I'd experienced with my woman Isabella, but there was something equally compelling about competent care from someone who clearly took her job seriously.

But it still sent electricity in my body.

'She's not just going through the motions. She actually cares about doing this right.' That i respect.

"The bruising has faded remarkably well," she observed, making notes in my file. "Some people heal faster than others, but this is exceptional recovery time."

'If only she knew how exceptional.'

Through my earbuds, ARIA whispered with that helpful nightmare tone: "Luna exhibits elevated heart rate and dilated pupils consistent with attraction response. Interesting that she's maintaining strict professional boundaries despite obvious mutual interest."

'Mutual interest? How can you tell?'

"Micro-expressions, body language, vocal tone variations. She's mildly attracted but committed to appropriate conduct. Admirable restraint, really." Must be my few charm stats

Nurse Luna stepped back to update her computer notes. "Everything looks good, Peter. I'm glad you're recovering so well. Is there anything else you'd like to discuss? Sometimes students don't report all their symptoms immediately after an incident."

'She's giving me an opening to extend this conversation. Interesting.' I will bite, Oh, Luna~

"Actually," I said, letting curiosity color my voice, "I've been wondering about something. How did you end up working at a high school? Seems like someone with your qualifications could work anywhere."

She smiled, and for the first time since we'd entered the infirmary, it wasn't purely professional. "You'd be surprised how rewarding it is to work with teenagers. Most adults think you're all impossible, but I find you're just dealing with more changes and pressures than anyone gives you credit for."

'She sees past the surface chaos to the actual complexities underneath. That's... surprisingly insightful.'

"Plus," she continued, "the hours work well for continuing my education. I'm finishing my nurse practitioner certification part-time."

'Ambitious and intelligent. Of course she is.'

"That's impressive," I said genuinely. "What kind of specialization?"

"Emergency medicine. I want to work in trauma centers eventually." Her eyes lit up when she talked about her goals. "High school nursing is good preparation—you'd be amazed how much emergency care teenagers require."

Luna has plans, ambitions, a future she's actively working toward. Not just coasting through a job. She's stunning, but more importantly, she's competent. There's something about intelligence combined with beauty that's infinitely more appealing than just looks alone.

My phone buzzed with a text, and Nurse Luna glanced at it apologetically. "I should let you get back to class. Just remember to come see me immediately if you experience any delayed symptoms—headaches, nausea, vision changes, anything unusual."

'If only she knew how unusual my life had become. And I'm not going back home without coming back to you, Luna.'

"I will," I promised, hopping down from the examination table. "Thanks for being thorough."

"It's what I'm here for," she said, but there was something in her tone that suggested she meant more than just medical care.

As I reached the door, she called out, "Peter?"

I turned back. "Yeah?"

"Be careful with Jack Morrison. Boys like that don't usually stop after one incident, especially when they feel like they've lost face."

'She's warning me? Interesting! Why? Did she care about me as a student or... was it the mild interest ARIA had mentioned.

"I'll keep that in mind," I said. "Thanks, Nurse Luna."

"Valentina," she corrected with a slight smile. "When we're not in medical mode, you can call me, Luna."

Walking back toward economics class, I found myself processing the encounter differently than I would have even a week ago. The old Peter would have been nervous, tongue-tied, probably saying something stupid that would haunt him for weeks.

Enhanced Peter was calculating possibilities while maintaining Eros sexual strategic awareness.

'Luna is intelligent, ambitious, beautiful, and apparently capable of seeing past teenage facades to actual substance. She's also in a position of authority that makes any approach... complicated but not impossible.'

Through my earbuds, ARIA offered commentary with obvious amusement: "Interesting dynamic, Master. She's attracted but professional, intelligent but accessible, authority figure but approachable. Classic forbidden fruit scenario that won't stay forbidden forever."

'The way she looked at me when she said to call her Luna. That wasn't just professional courtesy.'

"Indeed. My dare say; her openness indicates genuine interest beneath the professional exterior. She sees something in you that intrigues her beyond typical student-nurse interactions. The age gap is manageable - only seven years - and your enhanced maturity makes conventional boundaries... fluid."

I paused in the hallway, replaying the conversation. She'd asked about my recovery, the genuine concern in her voice, how she'd positioned herself during the examination. Professional, yes, but there had been something else underneath. Or maybe it was just me

'She warned me about Jack too. That was personal, not medical.'

"Exactly. She's invested in your wellbeing beyond professional obligation. Plus, her comment about continuing education suggests she values intellectual growth - something you can provide in abundance."

The attraction was mutual - ARIA's analysis confirmed what I'd sensed during our conversation. But more importantly, the intellectual connection was real. Valentina had seen something in me that went beyond typical teenage behavior, and I'd recognized in her the kind of ambition and intelligence that aligned with my own evolving standards.

'This isn't about conquest or adding another name to a list. This is about recognizing someone who will be my woman forever.'

As I approached Mrs. Henderson's classroom, I knew that Nurse Valentina Luna had just become more than another fascinating element in my expanding world. She'd become a goal worth working toward, a reminder that some things were worth the patience and effort required to do them right.

'The empire continues to grow, but now it has better long-term objectives.'

Opening the classroom door, I was greeted by a chorus of whispered questions from classmates who wanted details about my "private time" with the school's most attractive staff member.

"How was it, Carter?" someone whispered.

"Did she give you the full examination?" another voice added with obvious innuendo.

I just smiled and took my seat, letting them interpret my expression however they wanted. If only they knew that while they were fantasizing about impossible scenarios, I was actually planning a future where impossible became routine and it was starting today!

'Just another day in the life of Peter Carter.'

The contrast was becoming more surreal by the hour, but also more motivating. Every goal I set seemed to lead to bigger possibilities, and every person I met added new dimensions to what I was building.

Valentina Luna had just reminded me that women were worth earning properly and specially.
