Red Wave
Yu Sheng nestled against Lu Chenyang's chest, like a stubborn little beast asserting its territory, her lips gently pecking at his slightly swollen lower lip.
Touch it once. Touch it again.
Each fleeting touch carried a warm, moist feel and a hint of intoxication, teasing Lu Chenyang's tense nerves.
The bite wound throbbed with a fine, stinging pain under the pecking kisses. Strangely, he found himself indulging in this pain, yet it was far from enough! Not enough!
He bit down on the crack in his lip with his teeth, grinding out the congealed blood, tasting a slightly metallic, rusty flavor that spread across his tongue. The stinging pain mixed with a tingling itch, like an electric current coursing through his spine; he was captivated by this sensation.
Just as Yu Sheng leaned down again, her soft body about to cover him once more, a low, muffled sigh escaped Lu Chenyang's throat, like a long-held dam suddenly bursting. The hand around Yu Sheng's waist tightened abruptly, while the other hand gripped the back of his neck firmly.
The world spun around her! Yu Sheng felt her vision go upside down, and her back sank deep into the soft mattress.
Their bodies were pressed tightly together, completely sealed. Through the thin fabric, Yu Sheng could even clearly feel the uncontrollable, wild beating of Lu Chenyang's chest, one beat after another, pounding heavily against his heart.
Before I could react, a hot, heavy kiss pressed down on me.
It was no longer a tentative touch, but a complete overwhelm and invasion. Lu Chenyang's tongue, still carrying the lingering smell of blood, pried open Yu Sheng's slightly parted teeth in shock.
"Ugh—!" Yu Sheng's exclamation was completely swallowed back.
Lu Chenyang's kiss was awkward yet forceful, dominating his entire mouth.
For a moment, her heart stopped. Yu Sheng's mind went blank, with only one thought screaming through her.
Lu Chenyang is kissing him!
The kiss was a chaotic, entangled affair, brimming with primal desire, so powerful it was suffocating, swallowing him whole.
However, in just a moment, this almost savage plunder ignited Yu Sheng's nerve endings. Like a thirsty fish finding a spring, he immediately wrapped his arms tightly around Lu Chenyang's neck, actively welcoming that scorching invasion.
The metallic taste of blood in their mouths became the strongest aphrodisiac; he entwined himself tightly, letting their breaths completely mingle.
A powerful possessiveness roared in Yu Sheng's heart. His teeth itched; he really wanted to bite down hard and swallow that tempting, seductive tongue. He thought it, and he did it.
His teeth snapped shut, seizing the unruly tongue.
"Hmm!" Lu Chenyang groaned, his body tensing up.
There was no bleeding. Yu Sheng couldn't bear it. He loosened his grip slightly, panting, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Does it hurt?"
Lu Chenyang leaned against Yu Sheng's head, his chest heaving violently, his heavy breaths spraying between them. The moonlight outlined his lips, swollen and glistening from being kissed, like delicate glazed porcelain, sexy and alluring.
He lowered his eyes, his gaze fixed intently on the person beneath him, a long-suppressed desire finally erupting within them. From the night he braved the torrential rain to rush back from Shanxi, he knew he was "abnormal." Day after day, the relentless self-doubt and forced repression had pushed him to the brink of collapse.
Why was he attracted to this person? At this moment, he didn't want to delve into it, much less ponder it. As Yu Sheng tried to bite off his tongue, the desire in his heart was also clamoring, wanting to devour this person whole, to belong only to him.
Now that we've come to this realization, there's no need to suppress it anymore.
“You should bite harder.” Lu Chenyang’s voice was low and hoarse, with a self-destructive urge.
He lowered his head and kissed those rosy lips again, grinding them against the wound to make the stinging sensation even more pronounced. "Make me hurt more, make me... remember this feeling forever."
Yu Sheng's fingertips traced the saliva on his lips. "Do you like me biting you?"
"I like the pain you give me. In any way."
Looking into those eyes, reddened by the moonlight, Yu Sheng smiled. He tilted his head back, his smile flamboyant and unrestrained. The hand that had been stroking the back of Lu Chenyang's head suddenly tightened, gripping his neck and pressing him forcefully against his chest.
"Lu Chenyang." Yu Sheng whispered in his ear, her teeth slightly parted to nibble at his earlobe, which was so close to hers, slowly grinding it as if she were enjoying a feast. "...I really want to chain you up."
He had fantasized about saying this countless times, but had never revealed it to Lu Chenyang. However, at this moment, "Officer Lu" was clearly blinded by lust and had become "Officer Lu the Dog." Even if he actually managed to get a collar and chain him up, the man would probably accept it without hesitation.
As expected, Yu Sheng heard a satisfied sigh, followed by a warmth on his neck. Lu Chenyang's fluffy head rested on his shoulder, his face buried in the crook of his neck, his nose and lips constantly sniffing and rubbing against his skin.
Yu Sheng stroked the back of his head with satisfaction and pride, "...Good boy, again..."
Yu Sheng suddenly stopped mid-sentence, clearly feeling something abruptly pressing against him.
Damn it! Yu Sheng's mind exploded, his blood seemed to ignite instantly, rushing wildly from his limbs to his head, burning his eardrums. He wasn't unfamiliar with the reactions others had to him, but each time it only awakened his deep-seated fears, making him feel disgusted and nauseous.
But this time was different! This was Lu Chenyang! The "catalyst" he had chosen. The overwhelming fear gradually dissipated in the soft, moist breath of Lu Chenyang, and was replaced by a surge of astonishment and shame that instantly overwhelmed him.
Her body was like a bowstring suddenly drawn taut, its lines taut and strained. One second she was enjoying the affectionate nuzzling of a large dog, the next she was overwhelmed by this naked desire, her soul almost leaving her body. This stark contrast was more impactful than any seduction. Yu Sheng felt as if she had been stripped naked and thrown into the scorching sun.
However, a more powerful, morbid essence also existed. A secret ecstasy and a twisted sense of satisfaction gradually overtook the tide of shame.
The realization that 'Lu Chenyang... because of me...' brought a devastating sense of victory, like strong liquor being poured down his throat, making him tremble with pleasure.
Lu Chenyang's powerful and ruthless self-control, which he regarded as the benchmark of "normal" and "safety," completely collapsed because of Yu Sheng's existence! This feeling greatly satisfied his possessiveness and desire for control, making him so satisfied that he wanted to growl.
After the initial awkwardness, Yu Sheng felt a strange, mischievous urge. Watching Lu Chenyang bury his face in his neck, oblivious to his presence, he made a bold move.
He lifted his leg and pushed it upwards in an almost provocative and teasing manner!
The person on top of him froze instantly, their burning lips pressed against his collarbone, motionless. This reaction pleased Yu Sheng greatly. He adjusted his breathing, making his voice sound less hoarse and trembling, "Officer Lu... what... weapon are you hiding on you... tell me the truth!"
Yu Sheng deliberately spoke in a soft and seductive tone, which sounded to Lu Chenyang like a knife cutting through all his central nervous system, instantly rendering him unable to think.
Immediately afterwards, he heard Yu Sheng's familiar and smug teasing voice, "Officer Lu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
To Yu Sheng's surprise, Lu Chenyang's body only stiffened for a moment before he chuckled and bit down on his collarbone. It wasn't forceful, so it didn't hurt much, but the feeling of his teeth tightening and squeezing the flesh was exceptionally clear and stimulating.
"...What murder weapon?" Lu Chenyang raised his head, deliberately drawing out the last syllable, his voice filled with unspeakable restraint and hoarseness.
By the moonlight, Yu Sheng could clearly see that the man's ears and neck were so red they looked like they were about to bleed. But his eyes, which were always as calm as a deep pool, were now burning brightly, like a beast locking onto its prey in the dark, with a naked aggression that had completely torn away the disguise.
Yu Sheng felt a chill run down his spine under his gaze, and his feigned arrogance almost crumbled. This was no longer the gentle and restrained Officer Lu he knew, but a dangerous beast whose instincts had been completely unleashed.
“Young Master… I don’t quite understand. Perhaps… could you explain in more detail?” Lu Chenyang’s gaze swept over Yu Sheng’s slightly open, still moist red lips, which were glistening with shock and tension. His eyes were dark as ink, and his voice was lower and hoarse, as if carrying grit. “Or… could you please… search me yourself, Young Master? I… won’t… touch you!”
Yu Sheng's mind went blank. All the teasing, smugness, and even a little unease she had prepared were shattered by Lu Chenyang's bold counterattack!
He instantly went from being a victorious figure to being on the defensive. A wave of immense shame and the panic of being outmaneuvered swept over him. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word; his cheeks burned as if they were burning, and he completely lost his composure.
The room was eerily quiet. Yu Sheng could clearly hear his own heart pounding like a drum. The rain outside was pattering against the window, as if urging him to give a further answer.
No, no! This was Yu Sheng's first instinct without thinking; even Lu Chenyang wouldn't do it.
He could easily crack a few overly flirtatious jokes, but asking him to take it seriously… no way! He wasn't ready. Even if he were given another month, a year, or even two years, he still wouldn't be prepared to break free from these constraints. He couldn't do it.
Lu Chenyang took in all of Yu Sheng's panic and helplessness. He propped himself up, looking down at Yu Sheng, who was still panting slightly, caught in the afterglow of shock and shame, and then chuckled softly.
Under Yu Sheng's bewildered gaze, Lu Chenyang ruffled his hair, rolled over, and got out of bed. He walked to the window, opened it a crack, and let the cool night breeze blow in, dispelling the ambiguous heat in the room.
Lu Chenyang walked barefoot back to the bedside and carefully covered Yu Sheng with the blanket, tucking the corners in tightly. "Are you thirsty? Would you like something to drink?"
Still bewildered, Yu Sheng blankly replied, "Whatever."
Everything that had just happened was beyond his control, a feeling that Yu Sheng found very unsettling, yet unexpectedly and inexplicably stimulated his senses.
He lay alone on the messy bed, the patter of rain outside the window echoing the rise and fall of his heartbeat. Surprisingly, he didn't reject it; in fact, he felt a little savoring it.
Yu Sheng was indeed thirsty, very thirsty. He took the lemonade Lu Chenyang handed him and drank it all in one gulp. The sweet and sour taste warmed his throat, and the Second Young Master Yu finally came back to life.
Without any hesitation, he snuggled into Lu Chenyang's arms and whispered, "Officer Lu, aren't you homophobic? How come you are..."
"Tsk." Lu Chenyang flicked Yu Sheng's forehead in annoyance. "Who told you I'm homophobic?"
Yu Sheng tried to bounce back, but Lu Chenyang pulled her into his arms. She could only mutter in dissatisfaction, "What they said online, your fans, yes, your stalker, even left me a message saying that you hate close contact the most."
"You believe what they say?" Lu Chenyang chuckled and ruffled Yu Sheng's soft hair, then said seriously, "My homophobia is fake, but my aversion to physical intimacy is real. I don't oppose relationships based on any orientation; that's freedom. Remember when I told you about the seven years I was abducted as a child?"
"Yes, I remember." Yu Sheng looked up and listened attentively.
Lu Chenyang's expression turned deep as he stared silently at the snow-white ceiling, as if looking through it into the distant past. "Actually, I still have some memories from those seven years, very few and fragmented. As I've grown older, those memories have become blurred. But in the fragments I remember, there's always a little boy. He seemed to be a bit older than me, and in my memory, he was always locked in a room by some men. I stood outside the room, listening to the laughter and screams inside."
Yu Sheng asked softly, "Is this person... the one you mentioned who's five years older than you and later set fire to the house?"
“I don’t know.” Lu Chenyang’s voice was filled with obvious sadness and self-pity. “I can’t remember anything. But my instinct tells me not to let any adult male get close. Even if there is unavoidable contact, I must keep the initiative in my own hands so that I can be safe.”
"So... you asked Bai Hua to treat you?" Yu Sheng asked.
"Mmm." Lu Chenyang responded, his arm unconsciously tightening a little. "I want to get rid of this resistance, and I also want to... find those memories."
