School———————–

Xiao Ying missed Mo Jingxuan so much that he decided to have lunch with the others he was meeting at eleven instead. At the table, they ate and drank, paving the way for their upcoming social life and becoming closer friends while they were at it.

Xiao Ying took out his phone to reconfirm Mo Jingxuan’s location, smiling reassuringly as he saw that the red dot was still in the dormitory room.

Seeing that it was already past twelve and their discussions were wrapping to a close, Xiao Ying picked up a wine glass and decided to end the meal early, “Everyone, I have something to take care of, I will be leaving first.”

Raising their glasses in response, no one minded his abrupt departure, “Happy cooperation in the future Young Master Xiao!”

One of them joked, “Brother Xiao is so anxious to leave us, you couldn’t be rushing back to see your girlfriend could you?”

Xiao Ying smiled softly, not denying his words but instead correcting them slightly, “My lover.”

“Hahaha, Brother Xiao, good for you! You found yourself a wife already, go on then! Don’t leave sister-in-law waiting!”

Nodding to the people at the table, Xiao Ying went to the front desk to pay the bill and left in high spirits.

Hurrying along the way back to the school, Xiao Ying couldn’t wait to hold Xuan in his arms again. His heart felt empty after being apart from him for so long.

He opened the still-locked door with a bright smile, a smile that quickly disappeared as he glanced at the empty living room. He reached the kitchen quickly, beginning to really panic as he saw that all the rooms were empty.

Rushing to the empty bedroom, Xiao Ying took out his phone with agitation; the location displayed on it was still in the bedroom, “Xuan!!” Even when he shouted the man’s name with such distress, no one responded to alleviate his fears. He dialed Mo Jingxuan’s number with shaking hands…

The familiar ringtone came from the sofa, it was a couple’s ringtone that Mo Jingxuan had chosen for the two of them a few weeks ago. Xiao Ying ran to the sofa and lifted the singular cushion, finding Mo Jingxuan’s phone and the watch underneath it. “Xuan!” Xiao Ying fell to the ground, his heart sinking into despair. Did that person disappear again…?

In just a few minutes worth of time, Xiao Ying’s body had fallen lifeless. He looked up blankly at the gray sky outside the balcony.

Suddenly, his eyes widened in shock; there was a trail of footprints heading to the balcony. Climbing to his feet, he followed them out and leaned over to see the exact same prints on the balcony below.

“You said you wouldn’t leave me.” Xiao Ying murmured as his consciousness disconnected. His emotions were collapsing; the only thought left in his mind was to find his Xuan and tie him to him so he could never leave again. The crazy obsession made Xiao Ying’s originally dark eyes crawl with a red desire…With his head lowered, Xiao Ying stood on the balcony in dead silence for a long time.

Finally moving, he walked out of the dormitory in a clear direction…

Mo Jingxuan climbed up to the sixth floor just in time to see a corner of Xiao Ying’s clothes brush past the door and had no time to react as he yelled, “Baby!”

Xiao Ying, who was locked in his headspace, was shocked as he heard the voice turning back to see after a pause.

A gust of wind blew by, closing the half-open door with a bang and Mo Jingxuan trembled in the breeze.

Xiao Ying looked at the man half hanging on the balcony without any emotion.

He heard the man say, “Baby, I’m sorry.”

But he didn’t want to hear that.

Mo Jingxuan saw that Xiao Ying’s state didn’t seem to be right and swung his legs over the balcony quickly. He entered the room in distress but before he was able to wrap his arms around him, he was ruthlessly slammed to the ground.

Mo Jingxuan let out a muffled grunt, thankful he had insisted on laying carpets earlier, rubbing his ass as he tried to get up. Not letting him move though, Xiao Ying pounced on him, pushing him down once more.

His hair was pulled back vigorously, and Mo Jingxuan was forced to crane his neck upwards. Before he realized what was happening, Xiao Ying greeted him with a forceful kiss.

“Wait—” Mo Jingxuan tried to bear Xiao Ying’s violence, his mouth filled with the scent of blood as his lips were ravished by the other. He didn’t dare to struggle, knowing that the person in front of him was on the verge of losing his mind, only daring to speak out for a break in between breaths.

Letting go of the swollen red lips, Xiao Ying’s eyes were dilated, and he brutally tore at Mo Jingxuan’s clothes.

Mo Jingxuan pressed his hand quickly, not wanting to see his baby in such a state, “Baby, calm down, I’ll do it! I’ll do it!”

Xiao Ying shook off his hand and persistently ripped the clothes off the person beneath him. He had only one thought at this moment, to swallow this man and integrate him into his flesh and blood.

Mo Jingxuan’s clothes were soon completely destroyed; not even his underwear was spared.

Xiao Ying possessed his body, lowering his head and biting down hard on his shoulder.

“Ah–!” Mo Jingxuan yelled in pain; he knew his shoulder must be bleeding, but Xiao Ying was still biting just as hard. Maybe even harder as the coppery taste of blood urged him on.

Mo Jingxuan didn’t push away Xiao Ying even as he acted as if he wanted to eat his flesh, but rather stretched out his hand that was trembling with pain and gently patted Xiao Ying’s back.

As he was rubbed, Xiao Ying’s dead eyes flashed with a gleam of clarity. He slowly let go of the skin in his mouth and looked silently at the bloody mark on the man’s shoulder. Sticking out his tongue hesitantly, Xiao Ying licked the drops pooling at the center of the pit he had bitten out. The blood wouldn’t stop, and he gave up, sticking instead to the man’s lips as he tried to clean them. Tried to rid them of the destruction he had left.

“Hmmm,” Mo Jingxuan accepted the kiss and slipped his hand between their bodies, undoing the zipper that was holding the beast dormant in the jungle. He knew that his man needed to vent right then.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

When Xiao Ying woke up, the sky outside was already dark. The inexplicable pain in his body made him frown, and he subconsciously hugged the person in his arms tighter. Some time passed, and he gradually became aware of his surroundings, realizing that the two of them were actually sleeping on the ground.

Rubbing his aching head, Xiao Ying felt as though something was amiss, but he had forgotten everything that had happened the night before. He lowered his head to kiss the person in his arms, only to find that the two of them were naked, and the room was full of the musky scent of lust.

Nervously getting up, he took in the sight of the bruises covering the other’s body and the dried red and white turbid fluids surrounding them on the ground. The memories were coming back to him slowly, and the regret he felt increased with every detail he recalled.

Gently lifting Mo Jingxuan to the sofa, Xiao Ying went to the bathroom, turned on the water, and then called the family doctor to take a look.

Xiao Ying hugged the man in his arms as he tenderly cleaned up behind him with eyes full of remorse and distress. Mo Jingxuan woke up and raised his limp hands, touching the man’s head.

“Baby, are you awake?” Xiao Ying clenched his fists, looking tormented by his guilt, as Mo Jingxuan buried his face deep in his chest even after everything he had done to him. His voice choked with sobs as he cried, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry….”

Mo Jingxuan shook his head, “Baby, it’s alright. You don’t need to be sorry, I shouldn’t have left you.”

“I am sorry! I’m willing to do anything for you, I want to marry you! How can you love me when I hurt you so badly?” Xiao Ying’s face darkened at the thought of Mo Jingxuan turning his back on him as he resolved himself and kissed the man’s bruised lips, “Never again.”

Mo Jingxuan’s face fell, was this man planning to never have sex with him again? This was impossible! “Are you asking me to use my hand for life? Are you not afraid I’ll find someone else?”

“You dare?!” Xiao Ying frowned with anger and pulled Mo Jingxuan tightly into his arms.

Mo Jingxuan was silent…

Compromising as his Xuan sulked, Xiao Ying agreed, “I will study hard, next time it won’t hurt you.”

Nodding in satisfaction, Mo Jingxuan let him finish cleaning up his body as he relaxed in the warm water.

Xiao Ying piously kissed the marks marring his lover’s body, without any sexual desire, “Xuan, say you love me. Say you will never leave me.”

“I love you. I have never thought of leaving you.”
