Until they were branded on his delicate skin.
Almost every inch of space was marked with his imprint.
Eventually, Sky didn't know how he was carried from the first floor sofa to the second floor bedroom.
He only felt his petite body sinking deeply into the black bed, filled with Dray's scent.
And Dray, the instigator, was still like an insatiable black panther, pushing him to the brink time and time again.
...
It was past seven o'clock in the evening when Sky woke up to the sound of knocking on the door.
"Master... Master, dinner is ready. Please come down and eat..."
The voice of the maid, Aunt Mary, came from outside the door.
At this point, Sky only wanted to sleep and didn't even want to move a finger.
But Aunt Mary's voice didn't stop, and she kept on bothering him outside the door.
Helplessly, Sky could only weakly reply, "I'll be down soon," and forced himself to get up from the bed.

When Sky got up from the bed, he found that it was already dark outside.
There was only a small table lamp on in the room, and Dray, the instigator, was nowhere to be seen.
It's good that he's not here.
At least he wouldn't feel embarrassed.
He casually picked his bathrobe from the bedside and put it on, then walked slowly into the bathroom.
As soon as he turned on the bathroom light, he was startled by his reflection in the mirror.
How could the man in the mirror look like this...
His long black hair was messy and disheveled, cascading over his shoulders. His fair skin shone with a delicate radiance under the bathroom light.
He was wearing a loose bathrobe that was so oversized it completely enveloped his petite figure. At first glance, it looked like the owner of the bathrobe was holding him from behind, in a dominant and overbearing manner.
And beneath the slightly open collar, the slender and delicate white neck of him was marked with the unmistakable signs of Dray's possessiveness. The symbols he had personally branded onto his skin were alluring and dazzling, as if they were dripping with blood.
Sky blinked his thick lashes a few times, unable to believe what he was seeing in the mirror.
How could Dray be so domineering...
His face turned red with embarrassment, and he couldn't bear to look any longer. He quickly tidied himself up and changed into a high-necked home outfit before heading downstairs.
As soon as he stepped out of the master bedroom, he saw Aunt Mary, the maid, waiting at the bottom of the stairs with a displeased expression.
Seeing Sky come out, Aunt Mary complained in a low voice.
"Master...I don't mean to be rude, but you're so lazy. You slept in so late this morning, and then you came back in the afternoon and slept again! I've already set the dinner table, and I have to keep asking you to come downstairs to eat. If Master Li didn't forbid us from entering his room, I would have gone in and pulled you out myself!"
"I'm sorry, I'm a little tired so..."
"It's not about being tired! Even if you are Master, you can't let Master Li wait for too long! The food has been ready for so long, and Master Li is still waiting at the table... He's always picky about his food, if the food gets cold later, he won't want to eat it. I wonder how you will take responsibility for that!"
Aunt Mary stayed in the apartment longer than Eli did.
When Eli wasn't around, she had already seen Dray's indifference towards Sky.
So she didn't really respect this new Master, especially since Sky didn't have any airs and didn't care much about his clothes and belongings, even using plastic bags to carry things.
He was even more shabby than the servants!
Aunt Mary began to look down on Sky and didn't even consider him as the Master of the house!!!
Sky slightly furrowed his brows, but didn't care about Aunt Mary's attitude.
He just blinked and asked, "What, Master Li is staying home for dinner tonight too?"
He was a little surprised, thinking that Dray had already left after finishing his work.
After all, it seemed that he only wanted to spend time and effort on him during those moments. At other times, he didn't really like staying under the same roof with him.
Last night's dinner should have been an accident.
Sky didn't think that Dray was interested in dining with him at the same table.
"Yes, Master Li has been waiting at the table for a long time. So, Master, please hurry up and don't cause me any trouble!" Aunt Mary said impatiently before turning and heading downstairs.
Sky hesitated for two seconds before following her downstairs.
As soon as he entered the dining room, he saw Dray looking up.
The man's deep, bottomless eyes fell leisurely on him, taking in his lazy and delicate appearance in a light blue home outfit with loose hair.
Dray beckoned with his hand and his voice was slightly deep, "Come here and have dinner with me."
