A soft sigh falls from Xie Lian’s lips as he turns the page and his gaze lands on an adorable baby blanket.
He curls up comfortably, soothed by the warmth of his nest, and lets his gaze linger on the items depicted on the pages of the baby product catalogue. He has always liked children, and this is not the first time for him to think he would love to have at least one of his own some day… but it seems that his approaching first heat as a mated omega has given him the most severe case of baby fever he has ever experienced.
Turning another page of the catalogue, Xie Lian smiles softly. He’s thoroughly endeared by the sight of baby clothes, and especially the babies wearing them; those curious eyes and joyful smiles, the tiny hands clutching fluffy plushies…
Maybe one day I and San Lang will have a little one to take care of too, Xie Lian thinks with wistful hope.
The thought of his mate sends another wave of warmth washing over his heart. Instinctively, Xie Lian curls up a bit tighter as though to remind himself of how much he enjoys being held by his alpha.
He is certain Hua Cheng will be more than willing to do his best to fulfil Xie Lian’s wish, should the two of them decide to try for a baby. Aside from his eagerness to make Xie Lian happy, Hua Cheng is an enthusiastic, passionate lover, with no lack of stamina or skill in the bedroom.
With San Lang, I bet I would get pregnant in no time, Xie Lian thinks, a blush creeping up his neck and making his ears heat up. San Lang would take such good care of me.
Xie Lian squirms restlessly and sets the baby product catalogue aside; his soft mood from just moments earlier is quickly turning into something completely different. I can’t wait to make love with San Lang while in heat, he catches himself thinking. I’m sure it will be amazing, to be held and loved by him all night and day. San Lang always makes me feel so good, it must be even better when I’m in heat… he would hold me so tight and kiss me breathless, and he would — Xie Lian shifts again restlessly, his face burning with a flush — he would give me so much of his seed, he would make me so full —
All his thoughts halt abruptly as he realises just what kind of outrageously indecent things are crossing his mind. He feels like not only his face, but his entire upper body is heating up with a blush, and he can feel himself breaking into a slight sweat as though the mere mental images of such intense sex with Hua Cheng are enough for his body to react.
After a few heartbeats, something else catches Xie Lian’s attention — a wet, slippery feeling of something soaking through his pants.
Oh.
It seems like Xie Lian won’t have to endure any more waiting, then.
He stands up, wincing slightly as he feels slick leaking out with the motion, and bolts out of his nesting room. Vaguely, he realises there’s a completely new ache in his body — different from the discomfort he has felt during his pre-heat days, not exactly painful, but somehow even more urgent; all he can think of is getting to be held by Hua Cheng as quickly as he can.
Feverish with desire, Xie Lian heads to the kitchen, where Hua Cheng is preparing a meal. Hua Cheng’s priorities shift rapidly as Xie Lian approaches, though — Xie Lian has barely stepped into the room when Hua Cheng already hurries to him, undoubtedly having smelled his omega’s heat.
“Gege”, Hua Cheng says. “Are you okay?”
Instead of answering the question, Xie Lian throws himself at Hua Cheng and wraps his arms around his neck. “San Lang”, he breathes, a desperate need boiling up within him. “I need…” He flushes a deep red, unable to voice aloud what kind of urges his body is ravaged with, but Hua Cheng seems to understand him with perfect clarity.
With a fond chuckle, Hua Cheng squeezes Xie Lian close. “You smell so good like this”, he murmurs, nuzzling Xie Lian’s neck eagerly and brushing his lips against the scent gland. Xie Lian gasps as the brief contact sends sparks of arousal skittering across his body; his reaction draws another soft laugh from Hua Cheng. “Is gege ready?”
“More than ready”, Xie Lian mutters, breathless and throbbing with arousal. “San Lang, I can’t wait — I want to… I want, with you…”
“Then let’s go.” Hua Cheng nuzzles him again, eager and loving; as he pulls Xie Lian more tightly into his arms, Xie Lian can feel him already hard. “Does gege want to go back to the nest, or the bedroom?”
If Xie Lian is honest, he doesn’t really care one bit; he would do it right here on the floor if that meant he could have Hua Cheng inside him faster. As he raises his face and meets Hua Cheng’s gaze full of desire and fondness, however, Xie Lian’s head clears a bit.
“Let’s go to the bedroom”, he breathes. “It might be… more comfortable…” And I want to keep the nest clean, some instinct at the back of his mind whispers.
Hua Cheng kisses his neck. “Let’s go, then. I’ll store the food in the fridge for later. Let me take care of you, love.”
Kissing and caressing each other impatiently, they somehow manage to stumble their way to the bedroom. Xie Lian lies down on the bed, Hua Cheng eagerly following him; with unerring dexterity, Hua Cheng undresses Xie Lian in no time while pressing kisses on each part of his skin bared from under the clothes.
Xie Lian gasps as his underwear is pulled down by Hua Cheng. The very next moment, firm yet gentle hands take a hold of his knees and push his legs apart. Xie Lian blushes at the feeling of slick leaking onto the bed profusely — it’s almost as though his body knows this heat to be different from all the previous ones now that he is mated, and is preparing accordingly. Hua Cheng is in a similar state of arousal, his hard cock drooling precum all over the bed.
“Gege”, Hua Cheng groans as he slots himself between Xie Lian’s legs and leans over him so that their cocks brush together. “You’re so beautiful… your scent will drive me mad.”
Xie Lian has hardly time to breathe as Hua Cheng grinds his hips down, his pulsing cock rubbing into Xie Lian’s; that brief moment of friction is enough to make Xie Lian’s body arch up with pleasure, and he comes.
Loud, half-choked moans and gasps are wrenched from Xie Lian’s lips as he spurts onto his stomach. Hua Cheng has leaned in to murmur endearments in his ear, still thrusting gently to guide him through the orgasm. As the waves of climax finally soften into sweet aftershocks, Xie Lian turns to look at his alpha, instinctively longing for contact.
As their eyes meet, Xie Lian’s breath hitches again as he sees the expression on Hua Cheng’s face; the alpha’s single dark eye is full of enraptured passion, and his scent is heavy with desire and protectiveness.
“Gege”, Hua Cheng murmurs. “My beautiful omega, how are you so perfect?” He buries his face in the crook of Xie Lian’s neck, just as endeared and enchanted by his closeness as Xie Lian is by his.
“San Lang…” Xie Lian spreads his legs, bucking his hips just slightly to coax Hua Cheng into moving again. He doesn’t remember if he’s ever been this eager — desperate, even — for the second round right after coming. “San Lang, please, can you… get inside already?”
Hua Cheng laughs, low and breathy, and shifts back on the bed. “Let me get you ready first”, he says. He runs his hands along Xie Lian’s thighs and pushes them up to bare Xie Lian’s entrance, squeezing softly as he leans closer. “Although with this amount of slick, I doubt gege will need much preparation”, he says, and without a warning dives right in.
Xie Lian has barely time to gasp for breath before he feels something wet, warm and firm circling his rim. Letting out a cry, he arches his back as Hua Cheng pushes his tongue inside, the intrusion easy with the slick dripping from Xie Lian’s hole.
“San Lang”, Xie Lian gasps brokenly as Hua Cheng eats him out with abandon, pulling back only to replace his tongue with one of his long fingers. “San Lang, mm — yes, yes, oh, I think — I think I’m going to —”
The slender finger inside him turns and curls, rubbing right into his swollen prostate, and with mere seconds of gentle massaging, another orgasm crashes upon Xie Lian.
He cries out in helpless ecstasy as his cock twitches, spurting another load on his stomach that is already streaked white by his previous release. Among his frantic gasps and shuddering moans, Xie Lian is vaguely astonished at the intensity of his orgasm — especially so quickly after the first one! — but the very next moment, all the other thoughts melt away from his mind as Hua Cheng adds more fingers, opening him up.
It takes about half a minute for Xie Lian to decide he has gotten far enough preparation. Hua Cheng’s fingers inside him feel like nothing but a merciless tease, a meagre sample of the feast Xie Lian’s entire body is craving so desperately.
“San Lang, please!” Xie Lian nearly sobs as his cock hardens again. “I need… I need you inside!”
Hua Cheng pulls out his slick-coated fingers with a wet squelch and kneels on the bed above Xie Lian. His cock is so hard and swollen it looks painful, but he’s ignoring it, focusing his unwavering attention on his omega’s pleasure; it sends a wave of intense love and sympathy through Xie Lian. He wants Hua Cheng to feel just as good as himself.
“San Lang, please”, he whispers, raising trembling hands to cup Hua Cheng’s face.
“I know, love.”
Xie Lian’s breathing comes out in short, tense gasps as Hua Cheng lines himself up and starts pushing himself into his omega’s tight heat. As his cock slides in inch by inch, Xie Lian moans in immense relief; he isn’t sure if he’s ever felt such fulfilment, such pleasure just by being filled and stretched.
“Gege”, Hua Cheng groans, his fingers digging into Xie Lian’s hips as he starts thrusting, slow and careful at first, but quickly picking up pace. “You feel so fucking good…!”
“You too”, Xie Lian gasps, clenching around Hua Cheng so hard it pulls a low moan from the alpha’s lips. “San Lang… ahh, you’re so deep, it feels so good, ah —there, there, there —”
Hua Cheng grabs Xie Lian’s thighs and pushes them further up, the new angle sinking his cock even deeper into Xie Lian. As soon as they find their balance, Hua Cheng resumes his thrusting, the sounds of skin slapping together getting increasingly wet as Xie Lian’s slick leaks out, smearing all over his ass.
Xie Lian feels lightheaded with pleasure as Hua Cheng leans over him, panting and groaning as he brushes his lips along Xie Lian’s neck. Driven to the right spot by the purest instinct, Hua Cheng presses his mouth against Xie Lian’s scent gland and starts sucking and licking at it, coaxing his omega to release more of his intoxicating scent.
“Gege”, Hua Cheng pants, “so beautiful, my omega, so perfect. You smell so good.”
“San Lang too…” Xie Lian clings onto Hua Cheng tightly. He feels overwhelmed not only by the physical sensation of Hua Cheng’s cock filling him over and over again, but also by the presence of his alpha, the love and unfathomably deep connection between them. Xie Lian moans and tightens his hold, trying to wrap his legs around Hua Cheng’s waist. He wants to get impossibly closer, to feel his alpha even more; for a dizzying moment, Xie Lian wishes they could melt into one being, to feel each other’s pleasure with no boundaries.
The bed creaks underneath them as Hua Cheng’s thrusts start getting harder, his rhythm faltering just slightly as his cock throbs with an impending orgasm. His scent, heavy with lust, hangs thickly around them as it mixes irresistibly with Xie Lian’s heat pheromones.
After a few more thrusts, Hua Cheng goes rigid and groans as he finally reaches his peak. Xie Lian gasps and trembles in delight at the feeling of hot spurts of cum filling him, mixing with his overflowing slick and leaking out from his hole as Hua Cheng keeps thrusting slowly.
Xie Lian’s breath hitches as the sticky warmth within him stirs up an unexpected image — of Hua Cheng’s seed staying deep inside him, warm and thick, until a new life would start growing in Xie Lian’s body.
San Lang could get me pregnant in no time if he was in rut, Xie Lian thinks hazily, his daydreams from earlier returning with even more vigour. I could have San Lang’s baby, or maybe even two… he would come in me so much, as many times as I needed —
The loud moan that escapes Xie Lian’s lips catches Hua Cheng’s attention. Still reeling from the orgasm, but instantly keyed in on his omega’s wellbeing, Hua Cheng nuzzles his neck soothingly. “Gege, are you okay? Does it hurt?”
“N-no, I’m okay”, Xie Lian moans. “It feels really good… but I just — I just thought —” He bites his lip. “I thought, I might end up carrying San Lang’s babies if we keep going at it like this…”
After a moment of stunned silence, Hua Cheng lets out a low, breathy moan. His cock, still deeply buried in Xie Lian and having gone only half soft after his release, gives a twitch. He pulls back until only the tip of his dripping cock remains inside Xie Lian, and then slides back in, regaining a full, pulsing erection in seconds.
“Gege”, he breathes against Xie Lian’s neck, “keep talking like that, and you’re going to make me go into rut…”
Xie Lian shudders in pleasure at the thought. “Maybe then San Lang would really put a baby in me”, he whispers, his cheeks reddening.
Apparently spurred on by Xie Lian’s words, Hua Cheng grips Xie Lian’s thighs and starts thrusting again. Xie Lian moans as Hua Cheng grabs his leg and props it on his shoulder, slotting himself more closely against Xie Lian and pumping deeper into him. Sticky trails of precum trickle and scatter from the tip of Xie Lian’s cock as Hua Cheng grinds into his prostate over and over again.
“San Lang, ah, San Lang, that’s so good, that feels so good”, Xie Lian nearly sobs, grasping the bedsheets as his body jostles with the force of Hua Cheng’s thrusts. “It’s so — ohh! — so deep, so full —”
“I’ll give gege everything he wants”, Hua Cheng says, his voice low and tight, “whatever he needs, as many times as he wants… mmh, gege, you’re squeezing me so nicely…” His thrusts gets even fiercer, but even while caught up in the intense pace of their lovemaking, he remains careful not to hurt his omega. Xie Lian keens, overwhelmed by the feeling of Hua Cheng filling him up while holding onto his body almost reverently, firm and tight, but just gentle enough not to hurt.
Xie Lian, honestly, would not mind if Hua Cheng gripped a bit harder and left a few marks on his skin.
“San Lang”, Xie Lian pants, his hazy eyes locking at Hua Cheng. His chest feels tight at the sight of his alpha’s handsome face; Hua Cheng is flushed with exertion and rapture, and his expression makes the churning pleasure in Xie Lian’s loins grow even deeper. “San Lang, I’mm, mmh, I’m going to…!”
“Is gege coming again?” Hua Cheng croons, turning his head to kiss Xie Lian’s leg propped over his shoulder. “Gege, come for me, let me see you come. You’re so beautiful, I want to see you—”
“San Lang, haah, I’m—!!” Xie Lian cries out as his back arches with orgasm and wild waves of pleasure rush through him.
Hua Cheng slows down his pace a bit, groaning as he gazes at Xie Lian intently, transfixed by his omega’s climax. “So beautiful, gege. You’re clenching so hard around me… does it feel good?”
In a moment of wild lust, Hua Cheng leans closer to bend over Xie Lian. “You smell so good when you come”, Hua Cheng groans, his pace quickening again as he sucks at the scent gland on Xie Lian’s neck. Xie Lian can only make sharp gasps and quiet, half-stifled breaths at the stimulation; his hypersensitive scent glands send intense sparks of pleasure cascading down his upper body, and he shudders helplessly.
“San Lang, San Lang, please, ah, San Lang, don’t stop, don’t stop, please, ah—”
“Gege”, Hua Cheng growls, his hips stuttering as his cock pulsates thickly and starts swelling slightly at the base, "fuck, gege, I’m close, gonna come, I’m gonna—”
In a dizzying flash of realisation, Xie Lian realises Hua Cheng is about to knot him; the mere thought of it makes him moan, his body aching to be filled by his alpha in the most intimate way.
“San Laa…anng, hhn, please, I need it”, he hears himself begging, “give me your knot, I need to feel it, San Lang, please!” His vision goes blurry, and he realises he’s crying, out of sheer pleasure and immeasurable joy. He has never craved for Hua Cheng’s touch and intimacy so desperately, and is overjoyed upon realising Hua Cheng is just as full of need and love for him.
“Gege! Fuck, oh, fuck”, Hua Cheng groans, shuddering and arching his back as his knot swells and cum rushes into Xie Lian. He gives a few more short, jerky thrusts, before the knot locks into place and he can only grind his hips, his cock rubbing at Xie Lian’s prostate.
“Gege”, Hua Cheng pants, still coming as he blindly reaches down and wraps his fingers around Xie Lian’s cock. “Come with me…”
Overwhelmed by the feeling of being filled to the brim, Xie Lian doesn’t need much encouragement. He cries out and follows right after Hua Cheng, his body enveloped in Hua Cheng’s scent and warmth and endless ecstasy. He has never felt anything so intense, so pleasurable, his heat hormones turning every part of his body hypersensitive.
When Hua Cheng finally finishes, they snuggle into each other’s warmth, both still panting harshly. Their hearts beat together with a strong rhythm as they drown in each other’s scent.
Hua Cheng presses kisses on Xie Lian’s neck, soft but full of passion. Xie Lian lets out a whimper, and to his delight Hua Cheng understands it perfectly as an invitation, turning to kiss him on the lips instead. They stay tightly entwined, and Xie Lian lets out muffled moans into Hua Cheng’s mouth as he feels more small spurts of cum inside him every few moments.
Despite the intense climax that washed over Xie Lian just a while earlier, he feels the heated arousal creeping through the pit of his stomach very soon again. Hua Cheng, naturally, notices it the instant his cock gives the slightest twitch and chuckles.
“Seems like we should continue taking care of gege”, he murmurs, grinding his hips so that his knot drags against Xie Lian’s sensitive rim and makes him shiver.
“Mmm… San Lang”, Xie Lian sighs, delighted and eager. The pleasant haze of heat lingers throughout his body, making him more than ready to surrender himself in his alpha’s skilled, loving care.
——— 💞 ———
Over the next two days, Xie Lian gets filled up, caressed, pampered, and loved with such intensity he feels like he might lose his mind out of sheer pleasure. Hua Cheng makes love to him in every position they’ve ever tried and more, sometimes bringing him to orgasm in mere moments, sometimes edging him with sweet loving mischief for hours before letting him be swept into the languid waves of a long, slow climax.
Hua Cheng takes care of him in every way; he not only fills Xie Lian up over and over again, he also makes sure Xie Lian takes breaks to rest and to have something to eat or drink. During those breaks, Xie Lian eagerly snuggles into his alpha’s embrace, nearly intoxicated by his scent and presence. He feels as if he is buzzing inside and out with pure pleasure and contentment — he is so safe and cherished in Hua Cheng’s arms, and so full of joy and warmth… in every way.
“Take a nap, gege, you need to rest”, Hua Cheng tells him every now and then, lulling him into sleep in his arms and gently rubbing his flushed, marked skin to scent him all over. Xie Lian sleeps in short increments, before waking up to his cock throbbing and slick puddling underneath him — only to be immediately taken care of by Hua Cheng.
By the third day of Xie Lian’s heat, their pace has slowed down from the frantic lovemaking they began with. Xie Lian is getting understandably tired, so Hua Cheng handles him more softly and gently, still passionate but making sure Xie Lian isn’t hurt.
“Gege is so beautiful like this”, Hua Cheng murmurs as he thrusts slowly, Xie Lian lying on his back with his legs spread. “I could look at you forever, and never get tired of it. My lovely omega… so warm, mm, so tight and wet around me…”
He reaches out his hand to fondle Xie Lian’s chest, giving his nipples a playful squeeze. Having one of his weakest spots teased like that, Xie Lian whimpers and shivers helplessly.
“Nnn… San Lang…”
“My perfect, beautiful omega”, Hua Cheng breathes and, after one last deep thrust, pulls out. He turns Xie Lian to his side and settles behind him, lining his cock with Xie Lian’s hole and sliding back in with one fluid, accustomed motion. Xie Lian hums happily, pushing his hips against Hua Cheng as they resume their drawn-out round of slow grinding. He deliberately squeezes around Hua Cheng, which instantly earns him the reaction he was hoping for.
“Gege… mm, aahh, fuck that feels good… that’s it, just like that”, Hua Cheng groans as he spurts deep inside Xie Lian. His pulsing cock and the feeling of sticky warmth triggers Xie Lian’s own climax; Xie Lian gasps for breath and shudders as his orgasm blooms through him with deep, intensely slow and relaxing waves of pleasure.
As they rest, lying on their sides with Hua Cheng’s cock lodged snugly in Xie Lian, Xie Lian instinctively raises a tender hand to cradle his stomach. It’s so full of cum it bulges out a bit, and Xie Lian’s heart stirs with emotion as he imagines himself being heavy with a baby instead.
“Gege?” Always attentive, Hua Cheng seems to notice the shift in his mood and covers his hand with his own. “Would gege like to have a baby growing here?” he murmurs, nuzzling Xie Lian’s neck.
Hearing it said aloud by his alpha makes Xie Lian’s heart ache. Sudden tears well up in his eyes, his emotions intensified by the heat hormones and the high of lovemaking. “I would love it”, he whispers, intertwining his and Hua Cheng’s fingers.
Xie Lian knows that at this point it’s still virtually impossible for him to get pregnant; Hua Cheng isn’t in rut, and it usually takes a while for a mated pair to activate the necessary fertility hormones after they have bonded with a mutual intent of conceiving.
However, Xie Lian is also very aware of how compatible he and Hua Cheng are. He is sure they will have no problems once they start really trying.
“Is gege ready for another round?” Hua Cheng asks in a gentle, low voice, pressing lingering kisses on the nape of Xie Lian’s neck and reaching down to teasingly fondle his cock.
“Mm… San Lang, please…” Xie Lian shifts his hips backwards, relishing in the feeling of being full of Hua Cheng’s cum and his pulsing knot.
Their brief talk about babymaking seems to have sparked some hidden reserve of vigour in both of them, and their pace once again grows more intense. Hua Cheng sits up and hoists Xie Lian onto his lap, gripping his hips and bouncing him on his cock until the omega is crying out, blinded with pleasure.
“San Lang”, Xie Lian gasps, “please, more, more…”
“I’ll give gege everything”, Hua Cheng promises fervently, thrusting hard and deep, “everything you want, everything you need. Mmm, just like that, love… look at you, so full of me, it’s like you’re already pregnant…”
“San Lang!” Xie Lian sobs, Hua Cheng’s words turning him on so intensely his loins tighten almost painfully. “Yes, yes, I want that, I want that, San Lang, I want all of you —”
“I’ll make gege so full”, Hua Cheng groans, slowing down his thrusts just slightly to nuzzle and suck at the scent gland on Xie Lian’s neck, "I’ll fill you up until you can feel it all week, until you’re warm and round with my cum —”
“Yes, yes, San Lang, ah, please — mm, ah, you’re — you’re coming, oh, oh, it’s so deep —” Xie Lian’s breath hitches as Hua Cheng’s cock swells and twitches inside him before shooting out another load. The feeling of being filled up combined with the intense stimulation on his prostate is too much, and Xie Lian comes too, crying out and shuddering convulsively as he rides out his orgasm.
When their climaxes finally recede into sweet aftershocks, the lovers slowly lie down on the bed in a sticky tangle of limbs, Hua Cheng still deep inside Xie Lian. As Xie Lian catches his breath, waiting for his thundering heartbeat to calm down, he realises it seems likely that they are done for now; he can tell his heat is tapering off, and his last orgasm is melting the raging desire within him into a soft, relaxed feeling of content exhaustion.
“Gege, are you all right?” Hua Cheng murmurs behind him, his voice low and languid.
“Mm.” Xie Lian gives a deep, happy sigh. “It felt so good…”
“You must be tired.” Hua Cheng holds him close protectively, nuzzling his neck. “Rest now, beloved. I’ll run a bath for you when you’re ready.”
They bask in each other’s warmth until Hua Cheng’s knot deflates. He pulls out very gently to not irritate Xie Lian’s sore entrance, but physical discomfort is the last thing on Xie Lian’s mind — what truly upsets him is the urgent pang of loss and uneasiness as the warm spend spills out of him. The strong reaction catches him by surprise; sure, he has always greatly enjoyed having Hua Cheng come inside him in abundant volumes, but this time it feels like he would do anything to keep the cum deep inside.
“San Lang”, he says with genuine distress, instinctively trying to clench up to keep the sticky fluid from dribbling out.
Always attuned to his omega’s mood, Hua Cheng instantly holds him tighter and starts rubbing soothing circles on his back as his scent takes on a calming, protective undertone. “Ssh, gege, don’t worry”, he murmurs. “You’re all right. There will be time for a baby… next time you’re in heat, I’ll make love to you until a precious life starts in you.” He nuzzles and kisses Xie Lian’s neck. “Just relax, love, everything is okay.”
Soothed by his alpha’s presence and reassurances, Xie Lian nods and cuddles closer to Hua Cheng. Still overwhelmed by his hormones, he can’t help wishing desperately there was a way for him to already carry Hua Cheng’s baby… but like always, he is quickly calmed by his alpha’s warm embrace and scent. Slowly, the nervous tension in Xie Lian’s body melts into something soft and sleepy as he finally allows his tired muscles to relax.
——— 💞 ———
The bathroom is warm and lit with soft golden lights as Hua Cheng carries Xie Lian inside and lays him down in their luxurious bath tub with utter care and tenderness.
After turning on the hot water, Hua Cheng slips into the tub to join Xie Lian. Only a few seconds pass without them holding each other before Hua Cheng wraps his arms around Xie Lian again, but that short moment is enough to make Xie Lian positively ache for his alpha’s touch.
The mated pair washes each other with slow, gentle movements, Hua Cheng pampering Xie Lian to his utmost ability. As they wash the slick, cum and sweat off each other’s bodies, they keep sharing soft kisses and caresses — no longer in lust, but with endless, fathomless affection. They simply can’t stop touching each other, and every now and then they nuzzle, kiss and lick at the scent glands on each other’s necks, releasing even more of their scents that mix in the steamy air as if joining in a sweet embrace.
It might have seemed impossible for them to love each other more than they already did, but having shared Xie Lian’s first heat as a mated pair seems to have made their bond even deeper. Sighing in content, quiet happiness, Xie Lian lets himself bask in the love and unwavering tender attention his alpha is showering him with.
When they are fresh after the bath, Hua Cheng changes the sheets and cleans the bedroom. However, instead of lying down on their large bed, they return to Xie Lian’s nest. The soft scent and tender warmth of the nest makes Xie Lian melt with a feeling of utter, unperturbed safety, and getting to lie down to rest with his alpha makes it even better.
Hua Cheng helps Xie Lian curl up in a comfortable position, kneeling next to him and covering him with a light fluffy blanket. “I’ll go make you a meal”, he says, stroking Xie Lian’s hair.
“Mm… San Lang, please stay for a little longer”, Xie Lian whispers, shifting closer to Hua Cheng and nuzzling into his alpha’s embrace; with a soft smile, Hua Cheng complies and wraps his arms around Xie Lian.
Xie Lian gives a small sigh. He feels so blissfully warm and safe, thoroughly relaxed and sated. After a moment of silence, on some tender instinct, he raises his hand to his stomach; it has long ago returned to its flat state, with no trace of the slight bulge after taking in Hua Cheng’s ample offerings, but Xie Lian can still remember the feeling of being so full of his alpha…
“Is gege in pain?” Hua Cheng asks, noticing the gesture immediately.
Xie Lian smiles. “No, not at all.” He takes Hua Cheng’s hand and places it on his stomach as well, cradling their hands together. “Honestly, I’ve never felt this good…”
Hua Cheng returns the smile. “I’m glad.” He lets go of Xie Lian, but only to shift down and press a playful kiss on his belly. “One day”, he murmurs, “we’ll have our little one growing here.”
“San Lang…” Xie Lian’s heart swells with emotion.
“We can start preparing right away, even if it takes a while for our rut and heat to match up”, Hua Cheng says. “If gege wants, we can get you all the best supplements to increase fertility.” He shifts on the bedding of the nest and pulls Xie Lian into his arms again. “Anything for you, love.”
Xie Lian leans his head on Hua Cheng’s chest, giving another soft sigh. His eyes squint with an amused, fond smile as he thinks his body would make a really nice dwelling for a baby right now, with how utterly full of love and warmth he feels.
However, they are not in a rush. Xie Lian knows they have plenty of time to enjoy each other and the peace of their shared home… cherishing all the joys of their blissful life as a mated pair, until one day they will be joined by a small, sweet new life in their family.
