    Summary

    “This will not be pleasant for you,” he rasps, “once we begin, I will not be able to stop.”

    You study his flushed body, his ragged breaths, and solemn eyes. You try to find the violent, rabid creature the elders warned you about, but all you’re met with is a question.

    You close the distance between you two, and whisper, “Then don’t.”

    Or, every hundred years, the dragon protecting your valley demands a mate to join him in his lair, never to return. Certain events compel you to volunteer yourself, but nothing could have prepared you for what awaited you on the mountain.

    Summary

    On a rain-soaked night heavy with everything unspoken, two longtime roommates tiptoe around the truth they’ve buried for years. In the hush between words and touch, desire unfolds—not as confession, but as instinct. What begins as silence ends in something unmistakably real: love finally allowed to breathe.

    Summary

    This time Wen Kexing wakes with the skin of his ribs still burning, where he’d dreamed of A-Xu tracing each ridge with the edge of Wen Kexing’s fan. It had been a game, Wen Kexing keeping still under A-Xu’s steady hand, hardly breathing so that he could get the lines right. It had made sense, in the dream, as painting practice. The result was beautiful, red flowers blooming out of Wen Kexing’s skin, reaching up towards the sun. A-Xu had plucked one, and kissed the petals, his mouth coming away bloody; Wen Kexing had taken another and put it in A-Xu’s hair.

    A-Xu would probably be willing to repeat the experiment with ink and a brush. That would be its own kind of fun. Wen Kexing isn’t so sure about the knife.
