Chapter 58: The Confession in the Bath Shiao Yi was panicking. By the time he realized it, he was already in a bath. And worse—he was being held in Dominic’s arms! The water was warm, and being held against Dominic’s chest felt oddly comfortable. Dominic gently wiped his back and shoulders, and the touch was so soothing that Shiao Yi felt like he could fall asleep again. —No, no, no! How could I sleep right now?! Why was Dominic bathing him? He wasn’t a baby! And putting someone unconscious into a bath—how was that normal?! It was crazy! This situation was completely unheard of, something that should never happen. Shiao Yi was on the verge of freaking out. He felt more panicked now than he ever had—even more than when standing in front of a nuclear bomb right before it went off. And now, in this situation, he was supposed to think? Sure, Dominic had asked him to consider it before, but still... Don’t whisper in my ear like that! Your voice... it messes with me! When he spoke like that, in that smooth, sweet voice that tickled his senses—Shiao Yi could hardly handle it. Yeah... Shiao Yi was starting to understand. He was beginning to realize what it was Dominic truly wanted. A superior officer washing a subordinate like this? Sure, the other way around might happen sometimes—but this? This was something else entirely. Even when it came to dealing with urges or needs... there was no reason for kisses to be involved. No one had ever treated him this gently before. Shiao Yi felt Dominic things pressing up against his backside. That alone said everything. It wasn’t just about the body. It wasn’t just about desire. That’s why, even though he was this hard, even though he was clearly ready at any time, he was holding back for Dominic’s sake. "Shiao..." With a quiet, pained sigh, Dominic pulled Shiao Yi into his arms. He kissed his cheek and then went for his lips. A sweet, passionate kiss. A kiss so hot it felt like it could melt the core of Dominic’s mind. He’d experienced a kiss like this once before. Just once. It had been a lot more clumsy back then. The girl’s name was Lia. That night, she had said she’d been called to a high officer’s room. "I want my first time to be with you, Shiao Yi." She was so desperate that Dominic hadn’t been able to refuse her. While they kissed, she was crying. This kiss now... it felt very close to that one. Not long after that, she died. She didn’t have to die—but she did, because of a commander’s mistake in a situation that could’ve been avoided. "What are you thinking about?" Suddenly, a firm hand gripped his shoulder, and a harsh voice dropped down on him. "Whose name is on your mind right now?" Shiao Yi froze. Was Dominic a telepath or something? How did he know? He had just remembered something from the past. It was only because of Dominic’s kiss. Please, don’t make that face. Shiao Yi would rather be yelled at than see that expression. That anxious, hurt face didn’t suit Dominic at all. He liked Dominic’s smiling face. He liked how Dominic always stood tall, always faced forward. He wanted Dominic to shine in the light. Ah, he finally understood. This feeling had gone far beyond what someone should feel for a superior. Back then, he had thought: I don’t want to die. Back then, he had wished: I want to go back to Dominic. That’s why—he was sure of it—that’s why he had made it back. Because Dominic had called him back. Dominic wrapped his arms around Dominic’s neck. "Dominic. I like you. No... I think I love you." Then, he kissed Dominic on the lips. ... Shiao Yi had told him that he loved him. Not as a superior officer. But as a man—he looked at him as a man. That was why, even though they had only shared a kiss, Shiao Yi’s body was already starting to show signs of desire. When he looked into his eyes, they were wet with heat and the corners were flushed red. Rushed by emotion, Dominic didn’t even bother drying his own body completely before he carried Shiao Yi over to the bed. Those eyes full of warmth, the red cheeks, those soft and inviting lips— Dominic kissed him passionately. He held him tight in his arms and felt his heated body press against his own. Their hungry kisses were sweet, making Dominic’s heart melt and drown in the sensation. He moved his lips down to his neck and chest, exploring every inch of Shiao Yi’s smooth skin. A breath escaped from his lips, it was hot and shaky—almost like a moan. Just hearing that was enough to drive Dominic wild. He wrapped his arms around Shiao Yi’s waist, grinding their bodies together in desperation, and soon, he opened his legs, welcoming Dominic’s body between them. Shiao Yi was aroused too—his tip was already wet with anticipation. Dominic couldn’t hold back anymore. He pressed his burning desire against the most private part of Shiao Yi’s body. As he began to push in, trying to enter him, a panicked voice suddenly stopped him. "Dominic! Wait! Just wait a second—!" "It’s okay," Shiao Yi said calmly. "I know your body’s still healing. It must still hurt. I’ll be gentle. You don’t have to be scared." "That’s not it! ...No, I’m not trying to reject you or anything, okay?" Shiao Yi looked at Domino’s face and quickly tried to rephrase his words. Was he making that sad of a face? "I’m ready to accept you. Really, I am. I’ve already made up my mind. I don’t mind if you go in just like that, but... I mean, it probably won’t go in that easily, right?" Dominic: ??? "Dominic, have you ever done it with a man before?" "No, I haven’t." "What about with a woman?" "When I first joined the knights, a senior told me it was part of being a man and, well... I went to a brothel. Just once..." "..."
