THE TRUTH

CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN

Feifei led Yuan to his room.

He lit the oil lamp, wrapped the Night Pearls with cloth and asked Yuan to bring the Night Pearls down to the storage room below.

While Yuan went to the storage room, Feifei took out his different bottles of oil from one of his storage baskets and placed it on the table.

From the cabinet, Feifei took out a cloth for Yuan's blindfold and waited for him to come up.

When Yuan came back, he asked him to sit first. He would like to go down and wash.

Yuan stared at Feifei for a bit with an impenetrable expression.

Then he kissed down Feifei's forehead and walked to the platform.

With an indifferent, aloof face, Yuan looked at the village below. As if the sexually deprived man earlier wasn't him.

He thought Feifei is going to confess first. Yuan sighed.

When he was away, Yuan realized the pecularity of Feifei's essence. His intrinsic pattern is not of a female.

But of the same identity as him. In element. In pattern.

The extreme attraction and intense desire he felt for Feifei overwhelmed his sensibilities.

It was being away from Feifei that cleared his clogged senses. Which triggered the enlightenment.

His fragmented, intrinsic essence, recognized Feifei as his other half, his mate.

His soulmate.

That's when he discovered why his primal instincts always gets in the way of his rationality.

It is Feifei's essence that's driving him crazy, making him loose his mind with savage lust.

Like a moth to a flame.

It makes him want to devour Feifei, swallow him whole.

Want them to burn together, burst together in flames.

It makes him inexplicable.

This awareness, his comprehension of the truth, took him two months before he could finally calm down and accept it as what it is.

Feifei is both his madness and his serenity.

The key to his lock.

-----------------------------------------

Seeing Yuan standing at the platform with a distant face, Feifei is jittery.

His heart is beating so strong, so hard, so fast. Breathing itself is getting difficult and strenuous.

He wants to renege, to back out.

More than being nervous, he is increasingly scared.

Knowing what will happen, he is becoming afraid. He doesn't know what to expect.

He wants to repent.

Feifei bit his lips.

He doesn't want it but at the same time he does.

The other part of him is eager.

Just thinking of what will happen sends shivers down his spine.

The thought of her fusing with Yuan, makes him excited.

Yuan and him.

Clenching his fists tight, he gathered his courage.

Tonight is the night.

With strong determination, he glanced at Yuan again and hurriedly grabbed his essentials and body wipe.

Then he went down to wash.

-----------------------------------------

Hearing Feifei's fading footsteps, Yuan looked at the stairs with a cruel expression.

The more he's familiar with him, the clearer Feifei's strangeness is.

The closer he gets to understand him, the more convinced he became.

Feifei doesn't know who he really is. Or what he is capable of.

The strangeness he felt is the scent of magic. Light magic.

A very potent yet unawakened magic.

The light to his dark.

A sinister smile appeared in Yuan's face.

There is an underlying secret behind this temptress past.

But.

Feifei is left in the dark, unaware.

And Yuan is intent to unearth it all.

Staring at the skies above, Yuan chuckled.

I already know what you're hiding, Fei. When you have the guts to tell me the truth, see how I'll punish you.

For now, I will continue to play along.

-----------------------------------------

Feifei is so nervous that he wants to truly take back what he said.

He is really muddled. When Yuan is with him, he is always consumed by desire.

The desire to be possessed by him.

Now, here comes his insanity.

Taking a deep breath, he slowly went up to the second floor and was surprised.

Yuan is still standing at the platform.

Motionless. Immovable.

"Yuan?" Feifei called out in a soft voice.

Yuan glanced over and extended his hand to him.

With no hesitation, Feifei directly placed his hand into his. As if entrusting everything to him.

Yuan smiled lightly in approval and pulled him gently towards him.

Then he frowned.

He took both Feifei's cold hands into his and rubbed them together.

Realizing that the roughness and calluses of his hands might hurt Feifei, he stopped rubbing their hands together. Instead, he enclosed Feifei's hands within his and starts to blow hot air into it.

Warming Feifei's hands with his breath.

Feifei's heart melted with Yuan's gesture.

He really likes him.

Very much.

When he was satisfied Feifei's hands were warm enough, Yuan inserted Feifei' hands on either side of his trouser pockets.

Then he seriously studied Feifei's face for any regrets or hesitation.

He saw both fear and firm resolve in Feifei's eyes.

He chuckled.

Looking down, he gently cupped Feifei's face in both his hands like a treasure. Caressing his cheeks with his thumb.

Firmly locking Feifei's eyes with his, he then laid out his cards on the table.

"I'm a very cruel and dangerous man. I kill people without blinking. They say I'm evil. I think so too. Pleasure or pain, I revel on both. Im perverted, baby. I want to see you bleed and hurt. Begging for me to violently seize and plunder you. Begging for my cock to hurt you. Until you will never be able to extricate your breath away from mine."

Seeing Feifei's face flushed with passion and the strong, rapid beating pulse on his throat, Yuan got his answer.

"One thing I promise you. You will always be the first in anything. Tell me to stop. We'll stop. If you hurt, I'll take care of you. Tell me what you want and I will give it you the best way I can in the only way I know how. Talk to me and I will do it for you, okay?"

Feifei bit his lips hard. He felt like crying. He could only nod his head.

"Tonight, I promise to be careful. But for the next ones to come...." Yuan chuckled darkly.

He kissed Feifei wildly with reckless abandon then sucked Feifei's lips so hard until it was bruised.

Then Yuan pulled back his head.

"Baby...we can still stop." Yuan smiled at him sincerely.

Feifei wrapped his arms around Yuan's neck and on tiptoe, he kissed Yuan on the lips.

"You are the only one I want." He whispered. "I want this."

Yuan chuckled and kissed Feifei's nose.

"Your room is dark enough. I cannot see anything with the darkness. Let's drop the blindfold, okay?"

Feifei tightened his hold on Yuan's neck. Tensed.

"Don't think too much, Fei."

Feifei blinked his eyes at Yuan then nodded with great reluctance.

Seeing Feifei's wariness and doubts, Yuan almost burst out laughing.

This secret is too much to keep, isn't it?

Yuan took Feifei's hands from his neck and led him to the room.

"I will take care of you, tonight."
