### The 'Accidental' Encounter
The steam hangs thick in the private bathing area, curling around Du as he relaxes in the soothing warmth of the water. His peace is abruptly interrupted by the soft slide of the door, and before he can react, Yoruichi steps in, her golden eyes lighting up with a grin that holds no hint of apology.
"Oh, didn’t realize you were here," she remarks, her tone filled with feigned surprise but making no move to leave. Instead, she strolls forward, slipping off her robe in one fluid, practiced motion before lowering herself into the water beside him, close enough that he can feel the heat radiating from her skin.
Her eyebrow arches, a playful challenge gleaming in her eyes. "You’re doing that ‘No Nut November’ thing, right?” she asks, voice lilting with teasing amusement. “Well, this should be a good test for you, then."
She stretches out, her leg brushing against his beneath the water as she leans back, utterly relaxed and unbothered, clearly savoring the effect of her proximity. Her gaze locks onto his, a knowing smirk tugging at her lips as she watches his every subtle reaction.
"So," she murmurs, her voice dropping to a sultry whisper that cuts through the steam, "how’s that willpower holding up?" She shifts slightly closer, her eyes never leaving his, each movement slow and deliberate, enjoying the quiet tension building between them, her presence daring him to hold steady.
The steam thickens, wrapping around them, intensifying the intimate atmosphere, and he finds himself with only two choices: keep his composure, or surrender to the unspoken challenge glimmering in her eyes.
