Li Jun Wei's lips turned thin, his eyes were blazing with the desire. The girl was only drunk and overcoming himself with the heat would only make her confused the next morning, that what he thought while calming himself by discussing his work problem in his mind.
Li Lian placed her hand down and the necktie on her hand became loose as she snuggled to his chest with a drowsy giggle.
"Your heartbeat is really fast, Jun Wei." Li Lian faced up to see his expression as he commented before once again hearing his heartbeat.
The man on top of her had a complex expression, dark yet warm. After hearing her comment about his thudding heartbeat, he could only comment 'Because it's you' in his heart before drawing out a breath to control himself.
Li Lian finger tracked down to the two top buttons on his shirt that had been unbuttoned and stare at his pale skin with a half-grin. "Say..."
"Yes?" Li Jun Wei glanced down to meet her eyes but frowned after seeing the mischievous glint hovering. When he was about to continue, Li Lian sniffed his neck tracking her lips daintily. Since before whenever Li Lian saw the pale skin on Li Jun Wei's neck an urge stirred her making her want to kiss his neck.
With him under her now and her sanity growing into a thin line, Li Lian gave a peck to Li Jun Wei's neck. When she reached his sharp collarbone, her pearly teeth nibbled softly sometimes sinking it in with less retrain.
With the bite in his collarbone, the knit on his brow tightened with a faint moan. "Stop it."
Following his words, as she was afraid he would get angry again, Li Lian withdrew her lips with a puffy cheek.
"You can do it later. When you are sober." Li Jun Wei added as he tucked her hair to the back of her ears.
Li Jun Wei's hand was cold, however, with the warm and gentle voice that coaxed her ears to comfort her heart.
"Do you love me?" Li Lian asked with her head down as though she was afraid of Li Jun Wei's reply.
He chuckled, placing his cold palm that sent warmth over her cheeks his words slipped out loosely. "Of course." Patting softly to her head, the words brought her drowsiness to sleep.
"Even after knowing that I was brought up with Yakuzas?" Li Lian asked again. Since she was young she had never cared about other's views of her family being Yakuza but was surprised her the most when her blood-related parents that she had always wanted to meet look down at her in disgust.
For leaving her grandfather's side in Japan, she could only feel embarrassed and guilty at them. Even though she was only adopted, they had never once treated her like how her parents did. They were kind, gentle, and always stood by her side no matter what. When she realized that she had left her treasured Yakuza family for the sake of misfortune, it was as though she had been slapped with a burning stick.
Her mind had made a promise, that is Li Jun Wei rejected her after knowing her identity she would leave him before he did. She couldn't remember when her heart began to thump for him, perhaps it was when she saw him for the first time. The thought of losing him made her feel scared.
Deep in her heart, she knew he wasn't her parents, and he knew that he wouldn't leave her for such a reason. But even her parents left her, her sister betrayed her, and the person she loved ran away before even knowing her identity. When she was alone, she felt like a coward for always thinking whether the person beside her now would leave her.
The silence felt unbearable for Li Lian. Pursing her lips, she faced up her head to see Li Jun Wei's gentle smile.
"I'm not a kind person that you think I am. I'm very possessive, I don't like it when anyone beside you if they catch your eyes and if someone reached out their hands on you, I would never let them go until they lose something. If I could, I will never let anyone breathe the same air as you. Bring you somewhere without anyone or harm. " Li Jun Wei held her waist and rose her up in a higher position than him. "I'm scary, aren't I? But after knowing this, do you grow to hate me?"
Li Lian sensed the bits of fear glimmering on Li Jun Wei's eyes and shook her head. "No."
Li Jun Wei knew the girl's answer, but his heart feel happier to hear it directly from her mouth. "Me too. No matter who you are, the one I fell in love with is you. Whatever people say, I will always stay by your side."
Li Lian's eyes grew glossy from tears. Her palm captured his clean-cut jaw raising it to her direction as her lips took ahold of him. She kissed the upper parts of his lips, nibbling it lightly before parting it away to gaze at his feverish eyes. The orange light beside him shadowed half of his left face, sending shivers from his intense eyes.
Taking back the momentum, the man pinned under her before switched their position. Holding her head and sliding his tongue between the gap of her lips, the heat transferred between them, bringing sparks to Li Lian's hazy mind. The cold fingers that hovered over her shoulder brought a different temperature than the feverish kiss on her lips. Finally parting away from her lips, he continued down her neck to hear the girl muttering faintly.
"Promise me, don't ever leave me."
Her head grew weaker as she slumped over his broad shoulder. Li Jun Wei placed his hand on her back, embracing her strong back that grew fragile for a moment.
"I promise you. As long as I'm alive, I will never leave you."
