"What are you saying, we have already done things much riskier than that". He was talking about the times when he and Melissa sneaked out during meetings and inaugurations to get a quickie. Compared to that, this was nothing.
The woman nodded, making up her mind. However, Reinhardt was not done handing out punishment yet.
"That is for your training. As for your punishment, you are barred from wearing garments for this entire week. While working or even when not, you cannot wear any".
This... Melissa gulped. Not wearing any underwear would cause a lot of difficulties for her day to day activities.
"Are you ignoring my commands?"
"N-No, I will not wear any underwear for this week."
No matter how absurd the command, she was willing to listen to it all.
"Good, now go and bring me a pair of pants from my room. Also, remove your underwear when you go out". Saying that he reclined back on his seat and watched the woman struggle mentally to follow his commands.
What was he doing? Of course, it was testing Melissa’s resolve and how loyal she was to him. No matter how close they have become, one shouldn’t forget that she was a spy who came here with the motive to deliver his secrets back.
While he could see that the woman had no intention of betraying him with his [Eyes of Divine Clarity], it was just one of his ways of teasing this woman who got jealous whenever he slept with some other woman.
After losing her panties and bra, Melissa nervously headed out while fidgeting. With her underwear gone and her suit extremely short, it made her feel like she was completely exposed.
If she moved her arms around much or bent, everything would be in plain display. What’s more, she had to dress like this for an entire week.
Just thinking about it was enough to make her nervous and at the same time, feel a little excited in her heart. The thrill of doing something so daring caused her to feel a different kind of pleasure.
Melissa opened the door and headed out. On her way, she made sure not to make too big of a movement. Nevertheless, every time someone glanced or looked her way, she would feel like she was exposed.
While fighting the urge to immediately crawl into some hole and hide her face, she made her way to Reinhardt’s room.
At that moment, call it her bad luck or just a coincidence, but a group of knights from the Temple of Light walked towards this direction.
Leading them was a holy knight Marcus. As someone who had once stupidly fallen in love with Melissa, he was quite aware of her presence. When he saw her, his steps immediately became faster and took him towards her.
"Ah, Miss Secretary. Fancy meeting you here. How are you?"
"I’m fine," She replied with just two short words.
"I-I see, fine is good. By the way, where were you headed?"
Melissa looked around strangely before replying. "To the store room".
"I see, then can I walk you till there?"
"N-No, that won’t be necessary," she gave a curt answer before walking away.
Seeing her beautiful back figure, Marcus couldn’t help but sigh.
"Sir Marcus, she is taken. I heard her husband is some big shot Marquis from the capital." A knight spoke, his tone consoling.
"Shut up, I know that. It’s just that, when you like a woman, it’s not so easy to ignore her". The young knights who had never fallen in love looked at each other, their gaze asking, ’What was he talking about?’
"You guys won’t understand. Let’s go".
Melissa pretended to walk through the corridor, constantly tugging at her clothes, stopping them from rising any higher up. After seeing that the knights were gone, she sighed in relief, turned around, and quickly made her way inside Reinhardt’s room.
After a short while..
"Oh, you are back? How was the experience? Did you repent enough, or did you get excited instead?"
Melissa did not reply; instead, she constantly fidgeted around trying to suppress her urges. That encounter earlier with the knights was too risky for her comfort.
Nevertheless, it also caused her to feel extreme excitement knowing that she was almost completely naked in front of them and that if she slightly moved her body, they would be able to see everything.
"Very good, you brought me a new pair of pants. Now, shall we head for the meeting that is next in my schedule?"
Reinhardt quickly donned his new pants and opened the door to exit.
"What’s wrong? You’re not coming?"
Melissa was silent again. That said, while she might not be saying anything, her actions were louder than her words.
The Governor and his secretary walked through the corridor. Every servant or maid who saw them, bowed their heads towards them in respect.
Reinhardt walked a little faster, deliberately creating a situation where Melissa was forced to expose some of her assets, whether she liked it or not. Of course, with Divine Luck taking effect, even when in plain sight, nobody noticed her going commando.
.
Inside the hall is used to entertain guests. Reinhardt sat on the couch facing the son of a noble who came up with a business proposal to open in the Snowpoint City.
As he had already read his proposal and knew that his ideas were full of flaws, the talks were quite boring for him. The only reason he even bothered to set up a meeting with the latter was because of his father, who paid a hefty sum for the development of the city and was a decent man.
As for his son, he was just a stupid second generation who came into money and is now misusing it by throwing money into stupid endeavours.
"And so if we open up a huge building at the heart of the new market, it will be extremely famous..."
Unable to hear his nonsense any longer, Reinhardt deliberately dropped the spoon from his teacup.
"Ah, Melissa, can you get that for me?"
