After retrieving her from Jing Yuan’s place, Dan Heng had escorted her to his. His arms never let go of her, and he never let her pull away either. He made sure she remained trapped against him the moment that they got into his car, and he told the driver to get them out of there.

“Talk to me,” he whispered, one of his hands coming up to caress her cheek. The car didn’t drive too fast, and the road wasn’t bumpy either. It was rather peaceful. Even the music wasn’t loud enough to drown them out. He finally looked down at her. His eyes holding a sort of love and tenderness that she never felt from anyone before.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.”

She couldn’t stop saying those words. She couldn’t.

“Why are you apologizing,” he kept his voice at a whisper as he spoke, his free hand moving from her cheek and to the top of her head. His fingers immediately started to gently card through her hair.

“Because I keep making trouble for you,” her own tone matched his. Quiet, soft, yet full of vulnerability.

Dan Heng shook his head, “look at me.”

She didn’t even try to look up.

“I said to look at me. Look me in the eyes right now, y/n. I won’t say it again,” he said it so lowly, it almost sounded threatening as his tail materialized and wrapped around her waist which allowed him to move both of his hands to the sides of her face. Then, with a little force, he got her to look up at him as his fingers dug into her skin.

“I told you before and I’ll tell you again… you will never cause any problems for me. So just, just rely on me. And me alone.”

“But-“

“This isn’t up for debate. Your problems are mine now, so stop arguing with me and just kiss me.”

“Dan Heng-“

He didn’t let her say anything else when his tail tightened around her waist and pulled her flush against him. One arm went to wrap around her shoulder and his other hand went to rest against her neck to help tilt her head back so his lips could easily chase her own.

“I keep telling you to rely on me,” he said in between his harsh kisses, “but you’re just too damn stubborn.”

“I don’t want to be a burden this. I don’t want to rely on you that,” he flipped them both, so he was pinning her against the car seat, “well, I’m not listening anymore. You’re going to rely on me whether you like it or not.”

“A-“

His mouth trailed from her lips, down her jawline, and finally to her neck where he nipped and bit at her. His tongue flicking at certain spots of throat as he listened to her soft gasps and whimpers. She tried to squirm away from him, but he wasn’t having any of that, so to keep her still, he tightened his tail around her waist and pressed his hips down against her. And that’s when he heard it. The sweetest moan that fell from her lips. It was a noise he hadn’t heard her make before, it had his ears and cheeks turning a light pink as his breath became labored. He wanted to hear it again. And oh, the look on her face. He could feel how hot her face was, how her lips trembled and tears pricked the corner of her eyes as she raised her hips up to meet his, “Dan Heng, I-“

She struggled to say what she wanted, but she needed to get it out, “al-alright.”

“Alright what?”

He pushed more of his weight down on her to keep her from squirming anymore.

“I’ll rely on you from now on.”

“Promise?”

She nodded and he frowned could all but frown as he gave her another buck of his hips, “say it.”

“I promise!”

He looked at her face and gauged her reaction. His eyes scanning g for any doubt she had. Not finding anything of the sort, he kissed her again, but more gently this time.

“Good. Go back on your promise and I won’t be so nice next time.”

The car suddenly came to a stop then. The driver knocked on the glass window that separated the passengers from the front seats.

“Looks like we’re home, y/n.”
