Lan Wangji observed the so-called angel who clung to him – making him very uncomfortable – and he wondered why he could only sense a small and impure grace in him. Like the one he often sensed in a nephilim, but even murkier.

If only he stopped whining and flooding his senses with some kind of uncomfortable scent that caused him to feel hotter and hotter by the second, then he would be able to think more clearly and disengage himself from the man's uncomfortable touch.

The man forcefully touched his exposed skin, and he wanted to fling him out and away from his sight, but his body seemed to not listen to him at all.

He felt like he was about to tear his own clothes when suddenly a cold pair of hands touched his arms and dragged the other away from him – giving him the sense of relief.

At that time, he was barely breathing, and felt like he was about to burn in the worst possible way.

That couldn't be it.

Angels should not be able to burn unless it was from the hellfire, shouldn't they?

He felt so hot that his skin was about to peel, when suddenly he felt a fresh breath flowing into him. 

It soothed his body, and he wanted more.

In order to have more, he grabbed the person and pulled him close to him and inhaled his fresh smell which made him want him more and more as he moved his head and accidentally grazed the other person's neck with his lips.

By the time his lips touched his neck, he wanted more and more and he instinctively searched for the opening and kissed the other person fervently.








"Oh wow." Freyr ate popcorn that he prepared for the movie night and opened the beer bottle to drink it. "Who knew that Xianxian likes that kind of person." He chuckled and gave the popcorn to Freyja. "An angel of all beings."

"I'd say that it's the angel who has the hots for Xianxian, judging how he almost devours him like that." Freyja took the popcorn and then she stood up and dragged Blake with her. "I want to be kissed too." She pouted and Blake pulled her into his embrace and kissed her in front of everyone. He was happy and he would show the world that the most beautiful woman in the world was his.

"Uhm, Sir?" Jingyi was very nervous when he looked away from the couple and tried to talk to Freyr. The man was very handsome and had some kind of ethereal aura around him – as did all the other silver-haired people. 

He did not know what kind of species they were, since it was the first time he saw anyone like them, and he was entranced – especially by Freyja.

But seeing how she was very chummy with the black haired scary man, he backed up and became friendly with Ajax and Freyr instead.

When Wei Wuxian suddenly stood up and dragged the so-called angel away from Lan Wangji, he was surprised, but he was more surprised when Lan Wangji suddenly kissed Wei Wuxian and almost mauled him, when Wei Wuxian knocked him down and then put him on the couch.

Wei Wuxian then focused on the twink as he grabbed him and choked him with such a fierceness that Jingyi never saw in him before, and it caused him to shake in fear.

The aura that Wei Wuxian exuded was frightening, and Jingyi was trembling hard from the coldness that flowed from him. Even Evangeline moved behind Ajax to escape from the killing intent that was so heavy it filled the air with uncomfortable stillness.

"Who the fuck are you and why did you spread philter like nobody's business? If you dare lie to me, I will cut you slowly piece by piece until you beg to die instead of living. Start talking. Now!"

For the short time they were together, Wei Wuxian had never been anything but unpleasant, so when he acted like a gangster, Jingyi, Evangeline and Fei had goosebumps all over their bodies. Even Evangeline and Fei moved slightly behind Ajax to hide from the cold air which emanated from Wei Wuxian.

Of course the others were used to Wei Wuxian's temper, because although he looked nice and handsome, he was, after all, a Devourer who killed many, many angels and other creatures alike. 

This kind of a fake angel was no threat to him because if he was really serious about it, he could squash the twink without even using his hand. But this was an intimidation technique for the twink to spill the beans, and besides there were many angels there. He didn't want to expose their identities to their enemies unnecessarily without finding out what their true intention was.

"Uhm, Xianxian, I think you need to loosen your grip a bit. That rat looks like he was about to die anytime soon." Freyr commented on the way Wei Wuxian held the neck of the fake angel so tightly, and Wei Wuxian loosened up his grip so that the man could talk.

"Please don't kill me, I only did what I was told or they will kill my family! Please!" 

His voice was hoarse and tears were streaming down on his face. He looked scared to death and he wondered why his philter did not have any effect on this scary man, because the man who gave it to him told him that the philter would work on most creatures and angels.

What was he then? Why was the super strong philter not working on him and his peers?

"Such a cliche reason. Should we just skin him and roast him alive before we fetch him to Cerberus?" Benzaiten jumped in front of the man and observed him from top to bottom very closely. "Hmm, I recognize his smell. He's one of the lesser, common foxes with two tails. I have a lot of them in my place. But he must have worked with someone else to get the philter with this quality." Benzaiten sniffed around for the leftover smell. "Yes, I remember the smell. This was actually Lussuria's true essence."

"Lussuria? Lust demon?" Wei Wuxian asked. "No wonder it's this potent. Any idea how to neutralize it?"

"Well," Benzaiten smirked. "Of course I know how to neutralize it. You just have to sleep with Your Hotness, the leader of the Knight of the Holy Order."
