Summary
Heels clack against his wooden floor. Someone is coming.
He wills his heart to calm, especially when he realizes the stranger has entered his room. He lies motionless, as if his body is frozen in time. Even as a gloved hand touches his face gently, Ren does not move. That scent of the ocean permeates his nostrils and it is at this moment he finally connects the dots. He finally understands who is after him. Of course it would be him.
It’s that man. It’s the exact same smell when I woke up in my shop that day, when… when I woke up today and—!
Ren, the Furnace Master of the Luofu, best of the best when it comes to craftsmanship, accepts a commission from an alluring man who he has never seen on the Luofu before. Soon afterwards, he can't shake the feeling that there is more to what he wants, and he'll soon find out that he's connected to him in ways he would have never thought.

Summary
Sometimes he feels as if Blade does not realize the effect his voice has on him. In fact, he fears one day the man would ask to kill for him, and if he did it in that sultry voice, he’d unavoidably commit the sin. Worse would be if Blade does realize the effect it has on him. Then, it would just be him utilizing his weakness to make him do things he would have rejected in the past.
Like now, when Blade situates himself on his lap and smirks at him.
“You have been working all day,” he states the obvious, trailing his hands down his chest. “You haven’t been paying attention to me. Don’t you know how much that… bothers a man like me?”
Dan Heng loves Blade's pretty voice.

Summary
Blade prepared to be discarded. He could just kill anyone who saw him like this.
Yet, that is not what happens. Even when Dan Heng looked at him cruelly. The man picked him up from the ground and pulled his pants back up and buckled his belt. He let him lean against him, guiding him slowly to the Reverie. A bystander may think they were a drunken pair of old friends getting ready to end their revelry.
A laborious encounter and the comfort that comes after it.

Summary
It occurs to Ren then, after he caught Dan Heng researching Vidyadhara biology on the Data Bank, plus some memories that resurfaced involving Dan Feng acting the same way in the past, that it could be only one answer that he overlooked. It seemed Dan Heng was experiencing or about to experience a heat, and in his desire to not bother Ren about it, he became overly affectionate and scented Ren in order to help him cope with it. Prior to reconciling with him, Dan Heng has not acted like this before, so Ren can only assume that after their reconciliation, these feelings returned as his mind and body now knew he had a “mate.”
Ren discovers Dan Heng is in heat and helps him through it.

Summary
“You want Yingxing. I’ve seen the way you look at him and I’m sure you’re having your own battle deep inside to prevent you from doing the obvious? You’re not as subtle as you think, so don’t pretend like you are and don’t act the fool. I taught you better than that.”
Dan Heng balled his hands into fists and turned his head away like he was caught placing his hand in the cookie jar. Yingxing looked at Dan Feng disappointingly, to which Dan Feng smirked, gesturing to Dan Heng.
“Kiss him,” he mouthed. “Do it.”
Dan Heng covets Yingxing, Dan Feng's boyfriend and desperately tries to stop himself from doing something he'd regret. Who knew Dan Feng would welcome it in exchange for being able to watch them?
