Work Text:

Jing Yuan closed his eyes, and hummed softly, enjoying the gentle breeze, ‘how long has it been?’ He asked himself. Oh how he missed days like these. The air around the Xianzhou Luofu had changed  ever since they received their visitors from beyond the stars and the problems they brought with them. 

His eyes fluttered open to see Fu Xuan contemplating her next move. Master Diviner Fu Xuan, one of the few people still close to his heart. His faint smile grew wider knowing that she had caught on to the fact that she was about to lose. Her eyes swept across the board seeing if she could turn the game around, but he knew her fate was sealed; it was only a matter of time before she understood too. Jing Yuan reached for his cup of tea, he hummed softly at the warm herbal smell before taking a sip, eyes landing back on Fu Xuan who paused mid hand movement in annoyance. “Something wrong?” He asked, settling his cup back down.

“How could you possibly be winning?” She asked and he nearly choked his tea.

“Hm?” He smiled. She was so sure that she could easily win this game in just a few moves, and now it looked as if he was about to win by the next three turns. 

She exhaled in frustration, “hmph,” she glared up at him, he only gave her a friendly smile in return, "you're too smug, General." Jing Yuan tilted his head innocently, but she wasn’t convinced of his innocence, folding her arms over her chest. He was really curious what she was thinking about especially because her cheeks were a faint pink. “I have come to the conclusion. You have to be cheating,” he let out a hearty laugh at her accusation. Her eyebrows knitted together in annoyance, now regretting taking him up on his offer of just a friendly game. Jing Yuan against the better judgment of others always informing him that he should give teasing Fu Xuan a break decided to play along and hear what she had to say.

 “Now, why would I do that?” He waited excitedly for her explanation, “it’s just a friendly game of chess with one of my favorite people.” She scoffed at the thought of being one of his favorites. With how Jing Yuan treated her and unloaded his problems onto her, she highly doubted there was any bit of favoritism, but Fu Xuan couldn’t be any more wrong with her thoughts. Jing Yuan has always thought of her as a respectable and very loyal person. Yanqing, the sly young man, would even comment to the General that he fancied her, but he would always deny.

"I'm sorry, but I don’t believe you, General. Honestly it is so shameless that you are cheating," she said while staring daggers at him. To his amusement, she took the obvious bait. 

 "What do you mean?" His playful tone did nothing, but annoy her further. "If I didn't know any better, I would think that my dearest Lady Fu is a sore loser," she gasped, offended by his words. Her cheeks grew a more intense vermilion. ‘Beautiful color as always,’ he thought, admiring her embarrassed state.

“I am not a sore loser,” she puffed out her cheeks, turning away from him. “It just doesn’t make any sense. I know you are cheating and I will prove it,” she scanned the chessboard trying to figure out what he was doing. Her head shot up, and he waved at her, “wait— You aren’t eating the pieces again, are you?” She pointed at his belly. He looked down and back up at her in disbelief.

“Hah, when have I ever eaten any of the pieces? Besides, that was always Snowmoon’s talent,” his eyes deadpanned away from her scrutinizing gaze. “Here, we can always restart, or…” he trailed off, swallowing his upcoming words. Her left eyebrow lifting in curiosity, she wondered what he was trying to say.

"Or what?" She pressed.

“I believe I came up with an idea, and it’s a sure way to tell if I am cheating or not, but you may not like what I am going to suggest,” she leaned in closer still curious of his idea. He wanted to reach out and pat her head because she looked like a cute little eager cat.

“Oh? Well what is it?” Instead of using his words he leaned back, exposing his lap to her and lightly patted his thigh. “What are you—?” She blinked a few times before she realized what he was saying, “the pieces are in your lap? I knew it!” She jumped on her feet, and walked around the table only to see that his lap was empty, “huh?” She scanned the area around him, but it was spotless.

“Haha, as untrusting as ever of me. No no,” he waved his hand in dismissal, “no pieces, no tricks, but my suggestion was for you to sit upon my lap,” her mouth gaped open, her whole face now a bright red. ‘Ah, was that too forward?’ He nearly took back his words to avoid her wrath, but she calmed herself, taking a deep breath before pointing her finger out, nearly touching the tip of his nose.

“You,” she said. He prepared himself to get a mouthful that he was no stranger to. He actually quite enjoyed it, “I cannot believe you would suggest such a thing. That is beyond improper. Do you even hear yourself? First you cheat,” she started pacing, “then you decided to suggest something like that after you cheated?” She placed her hands on her hips, “what do you have to say for yourself?”

“I know. You are right,” he sighed admitting defeat, “I apologize. Please. Let’s reset an-” suddenly she plopped down on his lap, “Lady Fu?” His eyes grew wide.

“Hmph. Don’t look into it too much,” she leaned forward to push the button to reset the board. His eyes traced down her beautifully sculpted back, and stopped at her ass. ‘Aeons,’ he blinked a few times trying to think of other things to get his mind off of how good she felt on top of him. Fu Xuan truly had no idea what she was doing to him, finally he heard the beep, “I see a victory in my future, and there is no way of escaping your fate. It’s your turn, General,” she scooted back and he felt every bit of it. ‘Relax,’ he told himself.

“Of course, Lady Fu,” he took a deep breath before leaning forward, pressing his hard and broad chest against her small back. Her skin pricked. “Let’s see,” he perches his chin on the top of her head to get a better look of the board. Fu Xuan suddenly stilled when she felt his arm brush against her side.

“B-By the way. Don’t get too comfortable,” she said with her whole chest, but made zero attempt to move him. It was oddly comfortable to her too.

“I wouldn’t dream of it,” he finally found the piece he wanted to move. Tilting his head to the side, and leaning forward, she could feel his cheek ghosting over hers. She watched him slowly pick his next move then decide against it. With each movement, she could feel his cheek getting closer to hers, his body was rubbing against her every time he moved. Suddenly it was becoming harder for her to breathe and focus, time around her was slowing with each movement. She tried her best to predict his next move, but it was as if he covered up her third eye. “Hm,” he placed his free hand on her thigh, making her jump. Her eyes shot to his large hand that took up half of her thigh then turned to face him, her lips nearly kissing his cheek. “What is it?” He turned his head, his lips nearly brushing hers. “I believe I found my next move,” dizziness consumed her when his warm breath that smelled of herbal tea hit her lips. He moved his piece without taking his eyes off her, her belly fluttered from the action. She truly didn’t understand why she was being affected by him so much at this moment. “Your turn, Lady Fu,” she trembled excitedly. She turned her attention back to the game, reaching out to move a piece, but stopped when she felt his finger tracing over the cloud design on her tights.

“W-What are you doing?” She snapped her attention back to him.

“Sorry,” he stopped, “head was in the clouds,” he smirked.

“You’re being unfair, again,” her lips thinned, unamused physically, but mentally, buried deep inside, she was wanting more.

“How exactly am I being unfair? Are you saying that I distract you? Might you of all people be interested in me?” He asked teasingly, but his own curiosity was eating away at him. The two have always had an undeniable bond even if she said otherwise. Jing Yuan had a special talent to easily read her mind and would sometimes cloud her divinations. It was only a matter of time before Fu Xuan would just accept his feelings, besides he had all the time to wait. 

“And why would I ever be interested in you?” She glanced over her shoulder, “we all know that we don’t mix, General.”  Jing Yuan’s finger halted, his smile fell away.

“You are being cruel to me again, Lady Fu,” his tone darkened. “When will you ever be nice to me?” He snaked his arms tight around her, and pulled her in as close as possible. “Don’t I deserve your kindness?” He buried his face in her neck. Her heart hammered hard against her chest when she felt his lips ghost over her skin ,”are you sure you aren’t even a tad bit interested in me?” She was quickly losing the war against the undefeated General.

“Hah,” she swallowed whatever was left in her dry mouth to clear her thoughts. “Maybe if you were a little more tolerable,” still as stubborn as ever. “You know how I feel about relationships, so I suggest you get the idea of me being interested out of your head,” she shifted in his lap now sitting comfortably in between his legs. “Besides, why would someone like me be interested in a good for nothing,” she leaned in closer, “lazy scoundrel,” she hissed. Jing Yuan couldn’t hide his amusement which annoyed her even more. “Why don’t you just retire, and get out of my hair.”

“Maybe one day, but,” he took a long strand of her hair between his fingers and brought it to his lips, “you still wouldn’t get rid of me that easily,” her heart skipped a beat. She lost. The way he was looking at her, she had seen that look, his half lidded eyes blinking ever so slowly. Just like how a cat shows affection.

“Y-You,” his citrine gaze fell on her lips, she swallowed seeing a glimpse of his next move. He cupped her chin, thumb caressing over her bottom lip slowly. He wanted to claim her now, but he needed to know what she really thought of him. He didn’t believe her words and neither did she. Once his eyes met hers, she gave him a look of want. He wished she would use her words and tell him how she truly felt, but knew her pride would always get in her way.

“When will you be honest with me?” He asked her, her lips parted, he was finally going to hear the words he yearned for.

“General!” The two of them jerked their heads to the entrance to the garden, “General where are you?” Hearing Yanqing’s voice nearing, Fu Xuan quickly leapt from Jing Yuan’s lap, “General!” Yanqing yelled as he dashed through the entrance, “there you are,” his eyes shifted between the two, they were standing suspiciously close to one another, “were you two talking about anything important?” He tilted his head.

“Uhh no, um in fact I was just leaving,” Fu Xuan said with a heavy heart.

“But you didn’t finish your game— Oh and it looks like you were losing, Lady Fu,” her mouth gaped at the audacity of this child. Jing Yuan couldn’t hold back his laughter only to put him on the receiving end of a dangerous glare. He quickly covered his mouth and looked away.

“Whatever you say, child,” she smirked knowing she struck a nerve.

“I am not a child,” he said through gritted teeth. 

“Yeah. Ha, sure. As you were,” she waved them ‘good-bye,’ once she was out of their sight, she felt the need to ground herself. She rested her back against the wall, and took a deep breath. “I can’t believe it,” she could still feel his heat against her skin, “that scoundrel.” 



 

It was over two weeks since he had last seen or heard Fu Xuan personally. He was aware of how busy she was especially after her dealings with the Stellaron Hunter, Kafka, but he still held a sliver of hope that she would come by and deliver things personally to him. “I suppose she isn’t coming today either,” he sighed. He wondered if she was actively avoiding him after what happened. “Maybe,” he answered his own question.

Jing Yuan placed his pen down and glanced up at the ceiling wondering how she was doing. What were her thoughts about everything? “I hope you come by soon,” he sighed before stretching out his limbs after finishing another long day of tedious work successfully. It was that time of day, he had a few hours to spare until he had to get back to work. “Now how do I want to—?“ His eyes panned over to Snowmoon’s old bed, he was really in need of comfort from his old companion. Pushing himself up from his desk, he walked to the bed and plopped down on it with a big sigh. “Hello, old friend,” he rubbed his face against the soft fabric remembering all the times he and Snowmoon would cuddle up, recount tales of his past until they both fell asleep. The bed truly was magical, because it wasn’t long that memories of times not that long ago flooded his mind. He slowly drifted off to sleep with a bittersweet smile on his face. 

Only half an hour had passed since he initially went to sleep when a knock sounded at his office’s door. Everyone in Xianzhou Alliance knew better than to bother the Dozing General when it was near his daily nap time. Not even Yanqing would make an attempt to bother him.

…but there was one person that could care less.

“General,” even though he knew it was her, he couldn’t help but feel excited when he heard her voice.

“Yes, Lady Fu? You may enter,” he did well in hiding his excitement in his voice. The door slowly opened revealing her shocking appearance. She wasn’t as dressed up as usual, he turned his attention to his phone to see the time, it wasn’t all that late so he wondered why she looked like this. Her hair was still tied in its original style, but her hair pins were missing, she still wore the same dress absent were some of her accessories. She was beyond beautiful even without all the ornaments, but there was something else off about her… Fu Xuan tucked her tresses behind her ear, avoiding his gaze. ‘Ah, her eyes,’ he noticed, she had dark circles that she tried to cover in makeup, and her eyes that usually resembled a beautiful dawn were lacking some of its luster. He frowned knowing that he might be responsible for her current state. “Lady Fu?” He didn’t even try to hide the concern in his voice.

“I know it is pretty late, but I had asked Qingque to deliver these documents to you, but she told me she had plans to win a Celestial Jade tournament.” His eyebrow lifted in curiosity, that was most unlike of Fu Xuan to not double down and make Qingque do her job. “I will drop them off on your desk,” he watched her every move, even the way she walked seemed off. She was a little more stiff in her movements. Fu Xuan dropped his papers on his desk, and turned on her heels to leave.

“May I buy some of your time?” She stopped hearing the desperation in his voice. “Have you been resting well?” She nibbled on her bottom lip feeling sudden anxiety.

“I-I rest well enough, thank you, General,” she turned to face him, but wasn’t prepared to see the look on his face. He was incredibly worried about her. “L-Look, I’m fine… I will rest once I get back to my quarters,” she tried to wave his concerns away, but he wasn’t going to back down so easily.

“Hm,” he lifted himself from the bed, and made quick strides over to her before she could even think about leaving. He stopped a few inches away, he looked down at her, forgetting how small she really was it made his stomach do flips. He couldn’t let her get away, not yet. “Can you spare some time here and rest? Maybe have some tea with me? I got some new highly reviewed tea leaves,” she was about to refuse, but…

She missed spending time with him even if she never admitted it. 

Reluctantly she agreed, nodding her head. “Okay. I have some time,” he smiled as an overwhelming amount of euphoria washed over him.

“First, would you like to rest while I retrieve the tea? You can take Snowmoon’s bed if you like,” he gestured to the big cat bed on the floor, making her scoff. “What is it?”

“You really know how to treat a lady. I still can’t believe you sleep on that thing,” she walked up to it and poked the fabric, she was surprised at how spongy it was. “Fine,” Fu Xuan climbed onto the large bed, and purred silently when her body sank down. Jing Yuan knew just by her posture that she was slowly falling in love with the bed already. When it came to the comfort of both him and Snowmoon, he surely paid a pretty penny for this bed.

“It’s nice isn’t it?” He watched as she admired the soft fabric by gliding her hand across it, “haha. I will stop bothering you now. You can rest there. I’ll fetch the tea,” he turned to leave, but stopped when he felt a small tug on the hem of his jacket. He looked down to see small delicate fingers clinging to the fabric, “want something else to drink instead?” She removed her hand, and shook her head, “then what is it? Want some Songlotus Cake?” She blushed, he remembered one of her favorite snacks. She shook her head, “hah, tell me.”

“C-Can you lay with me first?” 

“Pardon?” Jing Yuan blinked, unsure if he heard her correctly.

“I won’t repeat myself again,” she flopped back down and turned away from him. He was frozen, trying to gather his thoughts before making his move. Fu Xuan’s ears twitched when she heard the sound of clothes shuffling. She fought the urge to take a peek, and cursed at herself for being perverted. Jing Yuan slung his coat over his desk before approaching the bed, “need me to scoot over?” She said over her shoulder.

“No need. You hardly take up any space,” he said as gently fell on the bed, “see?” he motioned to the good sized space between them. It was clear that neither were happy about the space between them, and were waiting on who would make the first move. Since she invited him in bed with her, he decided it was now his turn for the next move. “May I hold you?”

“Yes,” she said in a low whisper, he wrapped his arms around her petite frame and pulled her in closer to his body. Fu Xuan was once again stiff as a board at first, but it didn’t take long for her to relax in his hold. After she finally settled, he buried his face in her hair receiving a pleasant smell of water lillies. He fought the urge to tighten his grip around her, and to never let her go. He wanted her to know that she was free to go whenever she wanted, but she never moved, instead she pushed herself closer to him.

“Lady Fu,” he let out a breathy sigh and started to trace a few patterns into the exposed skin on her back. Even though his nail strokes were light, he would leave a little red line trail where ever they touched. She enjoyed the feeling even though at times it would tickle, but the gesture was too soothing. Her breathing became slower and deeper with each stroke against her soft skin. “Ready to tell me what’s wrong? You are trembling a little. What ails you?”

She swallowed a lump, closing her eyes shut, and admitted, “I-I’m afraid.”

“Afraid? Lady Fu? Afraid?” He was about to tease her, but her trembling picked up, “no no,” he pulled her into his chest. He may not fully understand what she is exactly afraid of, but he always swore that he would protect her. “It’s ok. I am here,” he rubbed circles into her back. It wasn’t long before she was fast asleep in his arms. He kissed the top of her head, and whispered good night to her before falling asleep himself.

 


 

“Having foresight must be one hell of a power,” she heard Kafka’s voice, “just imagine the amount of wealth you can gain, or power you can achieve by using it.” Fu Xuan shook her head, “no? Well not everyone can be a good guy. Now, does your lover know?”

“No,” she admitted and Kafka covered her eyes.

“Should I help remind you?” Fu Xuan saw visions of the future, unsure if it was near or far later, of a Mara-struck Jing Yuan. “Imagine that, that lazy man killing everyone near and dear to him like a savage beast,” Fu Xuan shook her head as she sobbed. “You think he will remember you in that state? Hah, you don’t stand a chance, little lady.”

“He won’t turn out that way! I won’t let him!” She snatched Kafka by her wrist, revealing her teary eyes filled with hatred for the Stellaron Hunter.

“Oh my, love really is an interesting thing. I suppose I can’t blame you, I would feel the same about Bladie,” she bent forward now at eye leveling with Fu Xuan. “You know you don’t have long, so why don’t you hurry and seal the deal, hm? Don’t waste your chance playing hard to get, word from Bladie is that he has quite the thing for little ol you,” she pointed, making her blush. “Cute,” she remarked, “besides you and him know more than anyone else. The future can be changed.”

“Are you trying to encourage me now?” Fu Xuan sneered.

“What? I am a sucker for love, and besides, I am not that big of a bad guy. There are bigger fish,” she winked at Fu Xuan, “so are you just going to watch, or are you going to change your future?”

 


 

Fu Xuan's eyes flew open right after Kafka left her dream. She was still trying to wrap her mind around if it was a nightmare or a blessing in disguise. Whatever it was, she decided to try and change the future. First she had to start by getting up, but she was still trapped in Jing Yuan’s arms. She glanced up to see the General’s gentle sleeping face. His breathing, soft and even, his hair a little messier than usual with his ponytail falling loose. How relaxed he looked made her smile. She may give him a piece of her mind or two, but never wanted to see him stressed especially after everything he has gone through in his lifetime, and will go through in the future. She pushed her fingers through his hair, pulling back his bangs and getting a good look at his face. “No wonder I see your pictures everywhere,” she always felt a tad bit jealous of who was so close to him to take a lot of the photos she had seen circulating.

She wasn’t exactly aware of the day she fell for him. There were so many different things that caught her eye about him. He may have been lazy and bad at his job from time to time, but he was also a strong, caring, and fearless leader. He didn’t manage to be a General for as long as he has being incompetent. Even though she gave him a hard time for a good majority of that time, she would only do it as her way of showing affection and a mixture of he would do things if she scolded him enough.

She wondered if he felt the same way or was earlier a fluke?

Fu Xuan snapped out of her thoughts realizing that she was staring at his face a little longer than usual, visually taking all of him in till her eyes fell on his parted lips. She then wondered how many women he had kissed throughout the years. The thought didn't make her jealous, but she wondered how experienced he was. Would you be ok with me?She whispered, and without thinking Fu Xuan placed her hand on his shoulders, lifted herself slightly, and gave his chin a kiss. No reaction. Fu Xuan swallowed a lump, then pressed a kiss against the corner of his mouth. No reaction.

"I heard rumors that you were hard to wake, but I never expected this, fufu," she snuck in another kiss, this time on his cheek. She decided to give him one last kiss before slipping from his arms and going about with her plan. She started for his nose, but he tilted his head up at the last second, capturing her lips for himself. Her eyes grew wide, she could have sworn that she didn't foresee him waking any time soon. He pulled away from her lips with the softest pop. The feeling felt divine, maybe she was now a little jealous that others got to feel this sensation before her.

"Did I catch you off guard again Lady Fu?" he grinned.

"Y-You stole my first kiss," she confessed. Jing Yuan's smile widened.

"I'm quite honored then."

"Honored?! What do you mean 'honored'? You should feel ashamed for tricking me!" She slapped herself, ‘off to a great start Fu,’ she scolded herself.

"But I didn't trick you— Didn’t you kiss me without my consent. How could you?" She could have sworn she saw lion ears flattening against his head when he gave her such a pitiful look. Fu Xuan snapped out of her imagination, and pounded her small fists against his chest, "I am kidding, haha," he stopped her assault by kissing the tip of her nose. She froze mid hit, her face now hotter than ever.

"Don't do that," she reeled back and covered her nose. Jing Yuan raised a brow in question, "you're making it worse. Your kisses make my heart beat faster," she pouted.

"Oh? It does?" he moved in closer to her.

"You're always so smug," she turned away from him, "and your smugness is the least charming thing about you," she continued. ‘Stop insulting him!’ 

"So you do think I am charming," he chuckled. ‘Yes! You are the most charmingly handsome guy I have ever met!’ 

"Hardly," was what came out of her instead, still not giving an inch, so Jing Yuan decided to take the mile on his own. He gently pushed on her shoulder, and she allowed herself to fall on her back against the bed. Before she could ask what he was doing, he pressed his lips on hers. Even though it was her second kiss it felt a lot more different than her first. There was more pressure and heat, her heart started to beat faster than ever before. “Mmf,” she moaned against his lips. The chuckle he let out against her lips was slightly breathless. He took initiative, tilting his head to the side to deepen the kiss. ‘His tongue. Why is his tongue—?’ She thought, confused on why she kept feeling his tongue glide across her bottom lip. She wasn't sure what to do so she opened her mouth to speak, and he took his opportunity to plunge his tongue deep into her wet cavern. She moaned as their tongues fought for dominance, and she had no chance against a seasoned warrior. ‘It’s so wet.’

He still felt like he was too far away from her so he gripped her thigh and lifted it up and pressed it against his hip slowly settling between her opened legs. Fu Xuan’s body acted on its own, grabbing onto his broad shoulders and she rolled her hips in rhythm with their tongue movements. She was so lost in the kiss that she was completely oblivious to the fact that she needed air to breathe, so Jing Yuan pulled away from her first so that she could catch her breath. It was only a short breather before she latched onto him again. He smiled against her lips, the way her tongue rubbed against his he could taste her stubbornness. He used his body to push her further in the bed. His fingers digging into her thigh, he finally got a feel of her plush they were. "Mmmf," she patted his chest, and he released her mouth, a thin line of saliva still connecting them. Jing Yuan took in her debauched state, her labored breathing, and her glazed over eyes. He was proud to say that he was the cause of her state. 

"I like this new look on you," he went in for another kiss, but she quickly blocked him with her small hands.

"H-Hold on," he kissed her palm, she whined and retracted her hand, "I have something I need to ask you first before we share anymore affection."

"Yes? I'm all ears," he said as he fiddled with her hair.

"D-Do you like me?" He froze, "we shouldn't do stuff like this if you don't like me,” she clenched her eyes shut and bit her bottom lip before confessing, “I-I like you, a little bit—.”

.

.

.

"Hahaha!" His sudden loud laughter made her jump, eyes blown wide, "seriously? Lady Fu you know me more than anyone else," he wiped away tears that formed in the corner of his eyes. Her whole face turned into the prettiest vermillion, eyes blown wide. "Of course I like you. In fact I believe just saying I like you is an understatement," he tucked an annoying stray loc of behind his ear. “I have been fond of you for some time now.” She heard Kafka say ‘I told you so,’ in her head. Fu Xuan ignored the voice and needed to confirm if what she was hearing was true.

“Y-You have been?” 

He pulled her in closer to him, "Yes. I adore so many things about you,” she grew curious.

"Like what?" She asked, and he grinned as he started to think of his list. He had a smile on his face remembering the first time he met the ever so feisty Master Diviner for the first time. “Hey,” he snapped out of his thoughts, “there you go with your heads in the clouds again.”

"Ah, my apologies, but some thoughts need to be combed over since it is such a long list,” he gave her lips a quick peck.

“You’re flattering me again,” she pouted.

“I am guilty of doing such a thing. Now, let’s see. I love your vast array of knowledge, your beauty is incomparable,” she scoffed, “what? Do you not believe me?” He placed his hand on her cheek and caressed her face gently, “your eyes remind me of dawn. The most peaceful time of day, and if I was to argue the most precious time. Your skin is so soft and untainted,” pressed his lips against her third eye.

“Jing Yuan,” he lifted her chin and kissed her lips, slow and full of passion. After a second he let go of her lips with a loud pop, and soaked in how cute she looked with kiss swollen lips.

“Mm,” he wanted to keep kissing her, but he continued his list. “Your hair is such a unique color,” he pinched strands between his fingers, “it feels as if it is made from the finest silk,” he let go and it spilled from his fingers. “You may be small, but I know that you can handle anything,” he leaned in closer to her ear, “and anyone.”

“W-What do you mean by that?” She asked.

“You know what I mean. Playing a fool doesn’t suit you,” she scoffed. “Not only your dedication and patience you have for me.”

“Fufu. You really are a handful,” she took his hand and locked her delicate fingers with his coarse ones. “I wonder if we got together, would you do better?”

“I see you are a believer in the impossible,” she giggled, “such a cute laugh too. I adore so many things about you, the list is endless," he stated with his whole chest. Usually she was very untrusting of him, but she believed everything that he was saying. “So, what do you like about me?” She gave him a blank stare, “really? Nothing?”

“Fufu. I am just kidding, I like- Ahh—!” Suddenly he kissed her chin, down to her neck, “I-I am trying to answer you!” Her hands shot up to stop him, but he was quicker, grabbing her wrists and pinning them over her head. “Jing Yuan!” She moaned when one of his canines scraped against her neck. 

“I already know and have known for a while how you feel about me,” he breathed against her neck. She shivered when she felt his tongue run alongside the column of her neck before giving a light bite and then a loud audible suck before pulling away with a pop. He admired the way the color of her skin changed, he licked his lips knowing that he was going to easily mark all over her body. 

After marking up her neck a little more, he let out a breath he didn't know he was holding in. “Come here,” she pushed herself off the bed and kissed him, his tongue wasting no time in entering her mouth and lapping up his new addiction. His free hand rubbed against her side, making the girl tremble with excitement and moan inside of his mouth. Her reactions lit a fire in his belly. He knew what he was doing to her, and he loved the fact he could make her this way. He hiked her leg up around his waist and she moved her other leg up and around his waist. The slight brush of her core against him made him grow harder. 

He unpinned her hands, trailing both of his down her body, and then back up, lifting the fabric of her dress just a little bit. “Take it off,” she said against his lips.

“Of course,” he leaned back, grabbing the hem of her dress and with some help from her, peeled it off of her and tossed it to the side. He eyed her ivory skin, noting the cute mole that sat on her rib cage. Her cute little breasts hidden behind a pink strapless bra with a tiny bow in the middle.

"Don't stare too much," she covered up her chest, he smirked at how timid she was being, it was hard not to devour her in seconds. 

"Excuse me. Hah, I just love the way you look right now,” he loved when she was vulnerable to him, because he knew that he was one of the only people that got to see her this way. A person that she trusted the most despite her words. “I apologize if I am staring too much,” her lips parted to speak, but her words got caught in her throat. “Before we go further. Let me ask again. Are you okay with this?" He asked worried that he may be taking things too far too fast.

"I-I am just not used to being touched," she admitted. Diviner Fu was very infamous among her people for secluding herself. Most of the time she would hold herself up in her workplace and only came out for food, important matters, and at times for Jing Yuan. He would always tempt her with a game or two and some high quality tea. Most ending in frustrations and few with a nice heart to heart, but the very next day when he tried to rekindle their talks of before, she would shut him out. He likes to believe he knew her more than anyone else, and he did, but even she had some unpredictability. Not that he is complaining.

Jing Yuan took one of her hands, and brought it to his lips, pressing a gentle kiss, "w-why are you doing that?" She snatched her hand away.

"I just want you to know I will go at your pace," Aeons she loved how considerate he is. “We can stop now.”

“It’s fine,” she moved her arms away from her chest, “I am fine as long as it’s with you.” He was a little taken aback by her words. He waited so long to hear those words coming from her.

“Once again, I am honored,” he placed his hands right under her breasts making her skin prickle, “may I see them?” She clenched her eyes shut and nodded, “Lady Fu,” he rubbed circles in her skin with his thumb, “I rather hear from you. You know how much I love your voice.”

“You always fall asleep when I lecture you,” she puffed out her cheeks.

“You have a lovely voice that lulls me to sleep. Besides, you know it’s one of my favorite things to do,” he smiled, but she wasn’t buying his crap this time.

“You are insufferable–” ‘–but I love that about you.’

“Thank you.” She stared at him with her eyebrows pinched together. This man was really the bane of her existence. “Now tell me,” he fiddled with  the bow on the front of her bra, “may I?” 

“Y-Yes,” she answered. He bent forward and pressed a tender kiss to her lips before continuing. He pulled the flimsy fabric away with little care and marveled at her chest. Small slopes with rosy pink nipples that instantly perked from the cool air. He was about to touch her chest, “do you mind them?” She asked, he could hear the hint of insecurity in her voice, “they aren’t that big compared to many other women you may have come across in your expeditions, especially the Foxian women.” His heart ached thinking that she needed to compare to anyone else.

“Lady Fu, I love them more than you could imagine,” he placed his large hands on each of her small globes making her clench her thighs tighter around him. “They are perfect the way they are,” he bent forward and took one of her nipples into his mouth as he massaged the other. She let out a cry, arching her back off of the bed, Jing Yuan released her nipple with a loud pop. “They taste divine too,” he licked his lips, and she felt her belly flutter. He went back, taking her other nipple into his mouth, she withered under him as his tongue lavished her. 

“Jing Yuan!” She wrapped her arms around his head and pulled him in closer, but he didn’t mind. The way he sucked started off gentle, but it wasn’t long until he was sucking as if he was trying to get his next meal. “Hhgh—“ She writhed, gripping the bedding tight in her hands as he continued to attack her breasts.

She loved the way his tongue sloppily swirled around her nipple and then popped them out of his mouth. He glanced up at her, her face flushed pink, her hair a mess, her eyes swelling with tears of pleasure. “I am happy to see you are enjoying this,” he fondled her chest and watched her. “My love,” he whispered quietly enough that she couldn’t hear. He leaned forward and nuzzled his nose into her neck then licked the sweat from her skin. 

“T-That’s gross,” she tried to shove him away, but he didn’t budge as he licked another bead of sweat.

“Haha, how so? I told you, you taste delicious,” he reached around and pulled his messy ponytail loose. She watched as his hair cascaded down his shoulders. Her eyes were glued to him as he started to pull his top off, revealing his bare scarred up chest. “Do I fit your tastes?” He combed his fingers through his hair, she rolled her eyes, “haha, you can indulge me just a little.”

“I rather not,” but internally she was screaming at how beautiful he was.

“I guess I will catch your eye another way,” she looked at him confused as he started a trail of kisses down her body. She shuddered when he stopped to suck on the sensitive spot just below her belly button.

“What are you about to do?” He glanced up at her before looping his arms around her thighs so that she couldn’t move freely. Now that he was face to face with a damp core, a strong and pleasant scent hit his nose making him feel feral. “Don’t look!” She tried to clench her thighs shut, but it was no use.

“Do you want me to stop?” He asked, peppering her inner thigh with a few kisses.

“No!” She said a little louder than she wanted to. Her hands quickly shot to her mouth.

“Haha, Lady Fu. Please don’t be shy. This is only natural,” he laid one last kiss on her thigh, even sucking on the skin a little, marking her there too. “Watch me whenever you are ready,” she suddenly heard the sound of fabric ripping.

“Hey!” She gripped his hair tight, threatening to pull it from its roots, “who do you think you are?” He kissed the damp spot on her panties in hopes to calm her. Her hands instantly recoiled back to her mouth, silencing her beautiful cries. It was a shame he couldn’t hear, but it was better than going bald in the near future.

“You remember what you tend to say to me,” he looked up at her, citrine eyes full of lust. She could have sworn she saw a glow. “You say my head is always in the clouds,” before she could insult him. He hooked his finger in her panties and pulled it aside, blowing softly on her glistening folds. 

“Ahh—! Don’t do that,” she cried.

“Yes ma’am,” he let out a breathy laugh that tickled her insides. He kissed her again this time it was planted on her pink tuft above her folds. His senses were being attacked all at one, her cries made his inside churn with desire, her smell made him feel dizzy with lust, the way she looked made his mouth salivate for a taste. He was barely a man in between her legs, he was more of a feral beast ready to eat his prey. 

He spread her lips to get a better look, and her legs started to tremble even more than before. Kisses her thigh trying to settle her nerves. “Don’t be embarrassed,” he peeked up at her, and she made the mistake of looking. Seeing the sight of him buried between her legs with only the top half of his face showing nearly made her cum. "I really enjoy the sight,” he said calmly. He admired the pretty pink color of her bundle of nerves before giving it a little kiss that made her mewl. "Relax," he lowered his head back down and wasted no time ravishing her, licking and sucking her sensitive bud, slurping up any of her nectar to prevent any messes. Fu Xuan couldn’t stop the sweet noises from escaping her pretty plump lips, she was completely at his mercy, under his mouth’s mercy.  

“I can’t—!” She arched her back, hands grasping out desperately so she tried to ground herself. They landed back in his hair, tugging his hair a little more harder than before. Once she found her grounding, he gave her clit a hard suck, “please—!“ he held her body down as she tried to thrash about.

“Mm— What is it?” He peeked up at her innocently as his thumb rubbed her sensitive button. 

“If you keep doing that— Hah— I am going to make a mess,” she said as she was gasping for air, and it was as if that comment lit a fire in him, he was back to attacking her with mouth in a flash. “S-Stop—! I-I—!” Her vision was becoming blurry, her third eye couldn't make heads or tails of anything. He plunged one of his long fingers inside of her, 'she is alarmingly tight,' he tried to loosen her up a little, but he knew her first time won't be pleasant. "Please! Please! Jing Yuan!!” She pulled his hair tight when he curled his finger repeatedly, hitting her spongy spot repeatedly. He finally let go of her thighs, she curled up around him, her legs tight against his head and came undone all over his face. “Ahhhh—!!!”

“Mmf,” his face was buried between her legs, but he didn’t mind as he happily cleaned up her mess with ease. Once her orgasm had passed, she fell limp against the bed. When he was freed from his grasp, he planted a gentle kiss in her pink tuft, “how was it?” He poked his head out, the bottom half of his face still had a clear sign of her sinful act. The Diviner struggled to answer as she was still catching her own breath. “I enjoyed myself,” he continued the conversation, moving from between her legs and settling down next to her. He focused on her breathing, placing his hand over her chest, he knew she hit pure bliss. The two laid there for what felt like hours till she finally gathered her surroundings, and looked up at Jing Yuan with pitiful eyes.

“Kiss me,” she demanded, and her wish was his command. He kissed her, dipping his tongue deep inside of her mouth so that she could get a taste of herself. She didn't mind the taste and in fact she actually enjoyed it. 

In between their kiss, she ran a hand down his torso, she felt up every ridge of his toned body. For his age she had to admit that he had a body made from the Aeons and even wonder how he was able to keep it when all he does is sleep and drink tea all day. She traced over several of his many scars, too many that even he had lost count. Each scar told a different story, stories she always enjoyed listening to even if she never showed it. Her hands stopped when she touched the hem of his pants, she looked up at him for his consent. "Lady Fu," he buried his face in her neck and guided her hand down to his bulge.

"Mn!" She squeaked, he was quite big and it was VERY evident that he was excited. She felt a little awkward as she was unsure of how to go about touching him. 

He looked up at her eyes and traced them down to his bulge. Her eyes were deadlocked to his bulge, "please don't stare too much," he scratched his cheek feeling a little embarrassed for the first time in a while. He has had his fair share of people in the past, but for some reason she was making him feel a lot different than the others. He was especially caught off guard when she decided to poke it and he gasped, "it isn't some creature, Lady Fu," his smile twitched. 

"What are you talking about? It's as big as a snake!" He blinked a few times before bursting out in laughter, "what? It is!"

"It isn't a snake and it certainly isn’t that big, haha, but it may hurt you a little at first," he mumbled that last part so she couldn't hear, "I am only a little above average. It's only big to you, because you are small," he poked at her cheek. 

She slapped his hand away and scolded him, "and you act like you aren't huge."

"I suppose I am guilty of being a larger man," he noticed her attention was back on his crotch, "since it draws your attention. Would you like to see it?" She swallowed a lump before nodding her head, "alright then," he started with popping the buttons, she watched so closely. He felt a little shy as he unzipped his pants, barely pushed his pants down freeing his erection from its confinement. The way his cock sprung out made her jump.

Her eyes were wide taking in the sight of the massive flesh. “T-that can’t fit inside of me,” she pointed at it, and he looked down and then at her. It would be a tight fit, but if he prepped her enough, he could.

“If you feel nervous, we can hold off,” he smiled, “I don’t want to rush you if you aren’t ready.” Fu Xuan reached out to touch the tip and he winced from her touch.

She instantly withdrew her hand, truly concerned that she may have hurt that guy that she liked, "did I hurt you?"  

“No, it’s just— it’s been awhile and I may just be a tad bit pent up,” he admitted. Fu Xuan stared at his throbbing weeping tip, she felt oddly guilty that he was so pent up. Was it because she hadn’t talked to him in a while? Suddenly with new found determination she pushed him on his back, and climbed on top of him, "hey, wait," he grabbed her hips, scared of what she might do.

"No touching!" She demanded, and his hands fell to the side of her thighs, "I did this to you, so it's my job to take care of it," he usually adored her stubbornness, but being like this she was bound to get hurt.

“Please, Lady Fu, this won’t— Hah!” He clenched her thighs hard when she rubbed her pussy along the length of his cock, “we can’t. I need to prep you more," he was slowly losing his reasoning with each glide of her pussy against him. Her slick was so warm, and incredibly wet, he wondered how good it must feel inside of her— but first he had to take control of the situation before it got worse. “Fu Xuan,” he groaned.

"Oh? Does it feel good?" she gave him a smug smile before lifting her hips and lining his head up to her entrance. He dug his nails into her skin as a last ditch effort, but she ignored them as she tried to push herself down on his cock, but instead of feeling the pleasures of before. She cried out in pain.

"Damn! Fu Xuan," he tossed her off of him, and pinned her with his body against the bed. Tears were already spilling from her eyes, "Fu Xuan," he wiped away the tears, "it's okay," he kissed her cheek to settle her nerves.

"D-Don’t baby me! L-Let me try again," she said through her sobs, but he shook his head, "but I can handle it!" She snapped at him. 

“No, you cannot!” He snapped back, making her flinch, “I don’t want to see you in pain,” he had immediate regret for snapping back, but it only came from a caring place. Fu Xuan avoided his gaze, she was feeling ashamed of herself, “please. Let us not rush things,” he bent down and kissed her cheek, “I want to take my time with you,” he gave her another kiss and then another till she started to giggle. “Let’s try again, but this time properly,” she nodded. 

 


 

It wasn't long before Jing Yuan was back between her legs, tasting every inch of her. He took his sweet time, licking her swollen clit while working two fingers in and out of her, enjoying the way she moved against him and moaned his name sweetly. He could tell she was close by the way her hips moved in time with his fingers. He pulled them out and examined all the slick on his fingers, it was practically dripping from his fingers, but there needed to be more. She was still too tight. Her first time wasn't going to be pleasant, but he wanted to ease the pain in any way that he could. He was about to latch his mouth back on her, but she stopped him, he looked up to see her heavy breathing, mouth dry. "M-Maybe that's enough for me."

"No," he stuck his fingers inside and made a scissoring motion, she squealed in delight, "I don't want you in pain," he pushed his fingers in a little further and wiggled them around, "can you come again?" He latched his mouth back on her clit and sucked harshly, she whimpered and bucked against him, gripping his hair tight again. He rubbed his fingers over the walls of her pussy and pushed them a little deeper then curled them upwards. He easily found her spongy spot when she tightened and cried around his fingers. He pulled them out and shoved them in again, hitting that spot repeatedly until her hips stopped moving. He moved away, and caressed her knee asking, "are you okay? Do you need a break?"

"N-No, but, I don't know how much more I can take," the sounds of her pussy squelching made it harder for her to no come again and again all over his fingers.

"It's still not ready," he moved up her body and gave her lips a peck, giving her another taste of herself, "maybe we should go to a hot spring to loosen up." She liked the idea, but her eyes trailed down to see that he was still clearly excited. She wanted it now. She needed it now.

"I want it," she pleaded as her hand grabbed hold of his stiff cock. He let out a sigh feeling her warm hand wrap around him, he needed it too, but... "Let me..." She trailed off. Fu Xuan wasn't that oblivious to sex, she had seen and heard a thing or two, so she knew what she could do to help the situation. "Fellatio," she whispered, and his ears perked.

"Did you just say Fellatio?" She nodded, her hand slowly stroking him, "I suppose that can work, but I rather you not force yourself. Not many are keen in doing such things," but the way she had been staring at it, he was sure that she wanted to do it more than he wanted her to do it.

"It's okay. I want to try it," her hand pumped him with a little more confidence, making him groan. Hearing him spurred her to get a little more brazen, she trailed kisses down his neck, collarbone, stopping at his chest and she gave him a look before giving his nipples a kiss. His laugh was breathless as she continued her journey down south, she was no face to face with, "snake."

"It's really not a snake," he sighed, feeling her hot breath against him. She moved in closer, his cock twitched accidentally bumping her nose. She looked past his cock and glared up at him, "it has a mind of its own sometimes." She rolled her eyes, turning her attention back to the swollen leaking tip. She was hesitant to lick the bead of precum building up at the top, she closed her eyes and swiped her tongue quickly across it, and was surprised by the taste.  It wasn't her favorite taste, but it was desirable.  She started with small kitten licks in various areas before moving on to long stripes from the base to his head. Jing Yuan had a hard time sitting back and watching as she licked his cock clean. "Lady Fu," she hummed in response, the vibration felt so good around him, "if you keep doing that I'm going to...release prematurely," she didn't care and continued her tortuous slow pace. She brought him in closer and gave his tip another lick before wrapping her lips around him, and slowly moving down, he was big, but she did her best to accommodate him. He moaned sweetly as she bobbed her head down, taking as much as she could. She had never had her mouth so full until today, not that she minded if it was all for him. She hollowed out her cheeks and sucked as she moved back up and off of him, she swallowed his length and hollowed her cheeks again, working her tongue around the tip as she moved back up.

"Wh-where did you learn that?" She let off his cock with a pop.

"Foxian BL novels," his mouth gaped, "what? Behind every stressed and overwork woman there is a BL lover," he chuckled in disbelief.

"I'll be sure to get a few more BL novels for you," he patted her head softly.

"I can't tell if you're just being selfish for your own needs or if you're just trying to make me happy," she teased, and before he could answer she took him back inside of her mouth. He groaned, throwing his head back as she took him deeper than before. She started at a quick pace and swirled her tongue around his head as she bobbed her head. Her tongue flicked across his slit, causing him to gasp and buck. She pushed down on his lips with all of her strength to stop him from moving. She swallowed their mixture of saliva and precum, and continued to suck, moving her head faster, pushing him over the edge. 

"Ahh-! Stop! Lady Fu, stop," he stopped her by grabbing the back of her neck, pulling her off his cock. He stared at the lewd mixture dripping from her mouth and latched his onto hers ignoring the taste of himself. It was time. He lifted her up on his lap between their kisses, and lined his head up against her entrance.  "Last time. There is no backing out now. Are you sure about this?" 

"Yes!" She brought him in for another kiss. He slipped his tongue inside of her mouth trying to distract her as he guided her hips down slowly. The two gasped in unison by the first initial stretch, “Hah–!” It felt as if he was trying to split her in half. He stilled, worried to death that he would only keep hurting her if they kept going. He started to pull her off of him, but she quickly grabbed a chunk of his hair and tugged.

"Don’t take it out! I am fine," she saw the determination in her eyes. He wanted to argue with her, but seeing how passionate she was, he knew it was a losing battle. “P-Please don’t stop,” she whined, and his heart thumped hard against his chest. Truly this woman was going to be the death of him. 

“Please tell me if it hurts. Don’t pretend to enjoy yourself,” was all he asked from her and she agreed. He took a deep breath along with her and continued his push, with each centimeter he felt her clamp harder around him. He cursed under his breath, it felt too good. He had to focus  on the moon outside to prevent himself from prematurely spilling. “Hah, you feel so amazing,” he squeezed her thigh lovingly and she responded with a whimper. "It’s so tight and warm inside," she buried her face in her neck out of embarrassment, “haha don’t be shy. Please don’t hide away your beautiful face,” she was hesitant, but eventually she showed her face to him. Her forehead glistening in sweat, hair a complete mess, eyes wide and glazed over, with beautiful plump lips. “My beautiful love,” he moved in for a kiss. While his kiss was passionate and calculated, hers was a sloppy mess. He pulled away and wiped the string saliva away, “you did so well,” he praised her. She reached down to touch where their bodies are connected when she noticed…

"Y-You aren't all the way in," he shook his head, “I-I can take more.”

“No, no you can’t, my love,” her heart swelled hearing him call her that again. "I don't want to hurt you, so this is all you can take of me. I hope you can forgive me," he said. She wished that she could give him the full experience, but she truly didn't understand how much he was enjoying this already. He was so happy that he was able to do this with the girl he has loved for such a long time. "Don't worry about it, ok?" He nuzzled his face in her sweat coated hair, "I'll move when you are ready."

"I'm ready," she said, and he slowly lifted her up his cock. Fu Xuan wrapped her arms tight around him, nails digging deep into his flesh. He was sure she was going to leave a mark by the end of their session, not that he minded. His movements were slow, wanting her to get used to the sensation, but she hated how much he was babying her. "Please," unwrapped her arms around him and stared deep into his citrine eyes, "don't treat me like a porcelain doll. You won't break me," she pulled him in for a kiss as a reassurance that she was ok. The leash restraining him was slowly breaking, even though she said it was ok, he didn’t want to hurt her. “I love you,” she mumbled against his lips, and his eyes widened, and his cock throbbed with excitement. The leash had finally snapped, he started thrusting his hips upwards while pulling her down on his cock. She was like his own personal fuck doll. The pain she was slowly being replaced by a vast amount of pleasure. She wiggled her hips, and he took that as a sign to pick up the speed. The faster he fucked her, the more she couldn’t get enough of his cock. “Jing Yuan!” She cried out when he suddenly rammed his cock into her, the tip rubbing against her sensitive spot. She screamed as his cock hit that spot over and over. Her cries spurred him on more, “I am close! I-I–!” She hugged him tight and came hard around his cock. He held her shaking body tight, rubbing circles into her back to soothe her and tell her that she is safe to be vulnerable. He rested her back gently on the bed, eyes focused on her sloppy mess before she called out to him. “J-Jing Yuan,” she mewled, looking up at him with lustful eyes. “Y-You didn’t cum.”

“It’s not about me,” he shrugged.

“That’s not fair.”

“It’s fine,” he chuckled, “I promise that I am fine just getting you off.”

Fu Xuan shook her head, “but it’s not fair for me,” he tilted his head in confusion. Suddenly she opened her legs, and presented herself to him. He swallowed a hard lump seeing her show herself, ripped tights and all, to him and only him. “I demand you to be fair,” she scolded. His brain was  short circuited at the sight of her. He never imagined he would get a chance like this with her. Without wasting another second, he flipped her over on her stomach, “what are you?”

“Being fair,” he lifted her waist up a little and slowly entered her again. The two sighed in unison at the familiar feeling, “does it hurt?”

“N-No,” she buried her face in the bed, “it wasn’t as painful, but it still felt sensitive from before. He gripped her hips, grinding as deep as he could into her. She sobbed, gripping onto the bed for dear life, trying her best not to come so quickly, but it was no use. “Haaaah!” She came undone underneath him again.

“Mm, this bed is in need of cleaning, I wonder what excuse I should use,” Jing Yuan bent forward and caged her body against him and the bed. “Should I tell them that Diviner Fu did this?” She cried out no, “haha, I am only joking. I usually clean it myself anyway,” he pulled away and started pounding into her hard, enjoying each noise she made. Her eyes rolled in the back of her head when he pulled out and snapped his hips back. She couldn’t believe how good it felt. It felt so good she was losing her mind, vision clouded by lust. 

"I-I am going to c-cum!" She squeaked.

Jing Yuan laughed breathlessly as he continued to thrust inside of her, "cum with me.” He felt the fire igniting in the pit of his belly. She came first again, legs trembling and mouth gaping open, letting out a silent scream. He doubled over her, gripping her hips tight surely leaving a mark he had to explain away later. He let out a silent grunt and emptied himself inside of her. The way his cum flooded her insides had her head in the clouds. A sensation she hopes to feel again soon, but only from him.

The two lay there in a panting and sweaty mess for a while, catching their breaths. Once her mind had finally settled she turned her head to look at him. “I saw—“

“Stop,” he said and she clamped her mouth shut, “I know that you are afraid of what might happen to me. It’s a fear I had many years ago, but now it doesn’t matter.”

“What do you mean!?” She sprung up ignoring the pain in her back, “why would you say it doesn’t matter? It matters to me!” His heart clenched when tears started to roll down her cheeks. “I cannot watch the man I fell for in that state! I won’t accept it!”

“Fu Xuan,” he wrapped his arms tight around her and pulled her in closer as she sobbed. “I can’t promise Mara will never affect me, but I can promise I will do everything I can to prevent it.”

“How?” She cried, he let out a sigh, the answer wasn’t clear, but he had all the time in the universe to figure it out before that fateful day.

“Trust me, I will find a way,” he wiped her tears away with the pad of his thumb, “I promise I will for you, Yanqing, our people,” he placed his hand on her belly, “maybe even our future children.” She smiled and he brought her in for a kiss, then another, then another till she started to giggle. He couldn’t give enough of how cute she sounded when she laughed. Once a little bit of the anxiety washed, the two shared a few more kisses together before it dawned on her that she was still naked and their bodies were a little sticky.

“Okay, okay, that’s enough,” she tried to shove him away, but the overgrown tree wouldn’t budge, “stop it’s icky now!”

“It’s only natural,” he wrapped her up tight in his arms, “it’s what lovers do.”

“No, this is gross! The bed is covered in so much filth,” she sneered, but it was ineffective against him.

“It’s covered in our love,” he purred, nuzzled his sweatiness against her sweatiness.

“Get off me you scoundrel!”

 

It wasn’t long before her struggles to get free tired her out, and the two drifted off to sleep in their newfound love nest.

 





“General, do they not bother you?” Yanqing asked Jing Yuan, who had a few little bird friends occupying his hair and shoulder.

“Why would they bother me?” He fed one of them a tiny seed, “I enjoy their company,” Yanqing tilted his head.

“You must be fond of them,” the General nodded as he fed another, and rubbed under its chin with the tip of his finger. He smiled, reminding himself of who else loves when he does this.

“I am. They do happen to remind me of someone precious to me,” before the lieutenant could ask him who, the familiar sound of heels stomping, approached.

“You.” Fu Xuan pointed at Jing Yuan, “why are you lounging around? You were supposed to attend the meeting with those Astral Express people!” Yanqing watched quietly as she talked about being a better general if she had a chance which Jing Yuan never denied. Then suddenly it dawned on him. 

“Master Diviner,” she turned her attention to the teenager, “would you like some?” Jing Yuan’s eyes widened at the fact the boy offered her the whole sack of seeds. 

“If this is your way of buttering me up,” she took a few and popped them in her mouth, “it won’t work,” she crossed her arms and pouted as she enjoyed the seeds. It was exactly what she was craving. 

After stealing the whole sack, she left mumbling to herself and cursing the sudden cravings she was having. Once the two were alone again, the lieutenant smiled smugly at his general, “keen as always. You caught me,” Jing Yuan sighed. “But please keep it between you, me, and the birds.”

“Haha, I understand, sir, but may I ask, when is my little brother due?”

Notes:

I hope it was good. I have been so busy with work. (╥︣﹏╥)
