A Night Of Love

Wei Ying

That night, after doing some hunting together, they found themselves too far from the closet town and from both Wen Ning and Sizhui that were still ahead of them. So they decided to make camp on a near cave, Wangji used when he was traveling and they make a campfire to keep the place warm and create a barrier to prevent any corps to take them unguarded while they sleeped.

However, as the Yiling Patriarch had seen a small lake, beautifully illuminated by the full moon, when he was gathering some wood for the campfire, he thought of something mischievous for the lovely clear night. After their small camp was ready and secured, Wei Ying blindfolded Lan Zhan, using as excuse that he had a surprise for him, taking his hand and carefully guiding him through the woods to the lake's shore. Wangji already knew there was a lake nearby, as he had try Inquiry in there a few times, as he did in most of the country, but this time he was not alone, nor with a junior or a stranger by his side.

He was there now with his lover, the one who make his blood boil with desire and in a period of time in where they were exploring everything about their new relationship. He had dreamed with having Wei Ying for so many years, that he had picture endless fantacies in almost any place, but he had to admit that water attract him more. He felt Wei Ying's kiss coming before their lips actually touched, as his warm breath reach him first, so he was ready for him to give him exactly what he wanted.

Soon, Lan Zhan was too lost in pleasure to barely notice when the mischievous hands got rid of his belt, open the upper side of his robes and throw it over the shore, half undressing him in the spot. Then Wei carefully guided him inside the cold water a step at the time, while still kissing him senseless. Then, Ying let go of his mouth to kiss his neck, just below his reddish ear, then down the small of his neck, in which he couldn't help himself but moan in pleasure.

"Wei Ying..." Lan Zhan whisper feeling a hard arousal against his own, yet, as Wei kissed his shoulder, he felt Ying stop his wanted advance down. Tinking that perhaps there was a corps near by, Wangji unfolded the piece of fabric Wei used to blindfold him and look around, but the water was calmingly reflecting the moon rays and the woods were empty of someone else presence aside from theirs.

"Wei Ying, what is it?" Wangji asked, looking back as his half naked lover, then he understood. Although he had seen it before, the first time they make love, they were too caught up in their passion to really pay attention to something else, but now, as Ying was taking things slower, he was quite conscious of the scar he had over his heart. The burned mark of the Wen Clan, exactly in the same place it had been in Wei Ying's previous life.

"Can you tell me about this? How were you branded with this? The Wen Clan was cut down in the campaign both you and Jiang Cheng leaded. No one should had mark you like this..." The question was unavoidable this time, so Wangji resigned himself to tell his lover about the hardships of his absence in his life.

"You choose to go... but I stayed, promising myself to rise Ah Yuan in your place." Wangji said first and Wei Ying pass an arm around Wangji's waist under the water, then pulling him close to hug him.

"I'm sorry..." Wei whisper.

"I regretted many things after you die, thus guilt half consume me for those first years of your absence." Wangji continue and Wei pressed himself to Lan Zhan even closer.

"You never did anything wrong, there was no need to feel guilty about it. I was the one who follow the wrong path, harness the wrong energy and cared for the hated people. Those were my choices... you try your best to help me and stop me and I was glad for it, because I knew you really cared." Wei kissed Lan Zhan's neck.

"Still, I could had done more, stay by your side, as I wished ever since I visit you..." Wangji keep up.

"You could had end up been killed too, if you had stayed with me in the Burial Mounds... that's why I never asked you to stay, nor to visit again. If I have dared to keep you by my side, we would never be like this now." Wei said softly, moving to have a deep look at his wet, beautiful lover.

"I wanted to do more... fight by your side instead of against you." Wangji whisper, caressing Wei's face.

"I didn't give you the choice. Lan Zhan... I never, once blame you for anything."

"You leave me behind..." Wangji said closing his eyes and Wei Ying got close to kiss his forehead, just bellow his ribbon.

"That was cruel of me... forgive me... but I'm here now and I promise to never let go of you again." Wei Ying said, reclining his head over Wangji's, while placing his hands at both sides of his neck.

"There were days it was too hard to take... because of the high fever, Ah Yuan's memories were blury, but he remained me of you. Each day." Wangji whisper.

"So you drank wine at times... to forget." Wei Ying finished for him, remembering the time Wangji took his cup from his hand to drink it, saying that things changed, including himself.

"That night I did... the rest I don't remember. Brother told me I did it myself, that I wanted to bear the same mark as you... to remember you." Wei fight some tears before he close the little distance between their faces to gently kiss Lan Zhan soft lips.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Wei whisper between kisses and as tears fell down his check.

"Wei Ying... be fully mine tonight." Wangji whisper in return and Wei smiled.

"I will be fully yours for the rest of my life..." Ying conceded, thus that night, under the moon, they make love giving way to their mutual desires. Wei give himself in full to his precious lover, giving him more than just pleasure, but also peace and a sense of belonging to something deeper.

Lan Zhan's suffering had been too great to give him less than what he deserved, so after they clinch their mutual passion and returned to the cave to rest, Wei Ying held his Lan Zhan as he rested, gently kissing him in the forehead, eyes and lips until he too fall asleep.

That night Wei Ying dreamed not with the past, but with the future, of a life with his beautiful man, their son and his friends and uncle. He dreamed of his brother and nephew laughing at silly things in the Lotus Pier, then hugging Lan Zhan in a beautiful pagoda with a magical view. It was a dream of home and love, he will make sure to become true.
