Chapter 325 - 7.15 Permission [M]
cw: impact play *cough*
***
From the tendency his lover had let slip a few times in the past, Lu Yizhou gathered that he had special ’interest’ in dominating others. While Lu Yizhou was perfectly willing to hand over the control, his lover hadn’t seemed to be ready to take the last step.
That’s why when Moshe cut his shirt to shreds, reducing the expensive material into rags clinging to his body, Lu Yizhou blinked, dejavu overcoming him in waves. There was no hesitation in Moshe’s movement at all, he was decisive, precise and determined. Anger was blazing within his golden eyes so bright it was like witnessing the eruption of a thousand years old magma, fierce and unstoppable. Within them was also a flash of madness Lu Yizhou had only seen in Jillian when the latter promised hell to his enemy.
Lu Yizhou never expected that one day, he would have that gaze directed toward him. He swallowed thickly. Moshe’s anger was burning the last bit of dark jealousy within him into bits and once again, Lu Yizhou started to see the light of the matter.
There were times when he chose to ignore his heart, to only let his logical mind direct his course of action. Call it a habit. Human’s emotions were one precarious, fragile thing. They were easily manipulated, and in return, they would manipulate your mind too, covering your senses with illusions akin to a thick haze of curtain. As a result, you would no longer be able to see the truth and you would act hastily only to regret it later, and that’s what people called ’stupid decision’.
Since he was young, Lu Yizhou had learned not to let emotion get into his decision-making.
He failed to realize that sometimes... when dealing with the matter of heart, especially the one whom he cherished more than life itself, he shouldn’t ignore what his heart was clamouring. It was only when he looked into Moshe’s slightly manic eyes that Lu Yizhou came to his senses. He had wrongly accused Moshe of being jealous of him.
It wasn’t Lu Yizhou whom Moshe was jealous of, but Regius.
"Before me, you have kissed one person and with Regius, it’s two. Where am I supposed to be, Aiden?" That one sentence had exposed Moshe’s entire feelings and forced Lu Yizhou to see the crux of the problem.
Moshe had no idea that one person Lu Yizhou was talking about had always been him. Alas, before Lu Yizhou could rectify his mistakes, he was already dragged to the bed and tied up. Again.
