"Huh? Why?"
"Eh?" Dan Heng closed the locker, seeing Yinxing laying against the wall near him. He looked annoyed at something not even Dan Heng knew "What why?"
"Why did you accept her prom invitation?" Yinxing asked to then lay his finger on Dan Heng's nose "Don't tell me you didn't tell even your best friend you like her?!"
"Huh?" Dan Heng tilted his head "You idiot, she asked me in front of all our classmates, it would have been rude to say now" he explained, and Yinxing smiled widely
"Oh oh! Dan Heng is such a chad" he then crossed his "What if she asked because everyone knows you're too kind?" he looked again annoyed as they were walking through the corridors
"Does it matter? Not like I had a particular interest in any girl" he said to then yawn and tilt his head seeing Yinxing rolling his eyes "What's wrong, do you fear you will end up with no girl?" he laughed and he tickled his head
"No" he smirked "But c'mon, I thought we could do something together instead of going to prom" he muttered and Dan Heng narrowed his stare
"Are you kidding? It's the last night with our classmates, then who knows if we will ever catch up at college" he pointed the finger at him "Yinxing, you didn't want to go?"
"Not really, but since you're going" he smirked "I will have fun stealing you from your date, after all it's classmates night! We all shall enjoy each others' company!" he smiled innocently and Dan Heng laughed
"Well, I won't mind, even though I already know I will see you at college"
Yinxing opened up his eyes and stroke his hair "Haah?! How?!"
Dan Heng looked at him and with a stare Yinxing ended up sighing "Of course, my mother doesn't really understand the meaning of surprise" he opened up his eyes as Dan Heng hugged him
"I am happy you decided to haunt me there too" he teased, but he was seriously happy.
Yinxing's lips twitched "I am not planning to haunt you, I am going to pursue a career as well you know Hmpf" he then tried to unwrap Dan Heng's arms from his waist "C'mon, stop it!"
"Yinxing is a soft heart guys!" Dan Heng smiled evilly as he was hugging him and Yinxing gnashed his teeth
"Stop it, Dan Heng!"
"SAY CHEESE! THE SHIP WILL RAISE!"
Yinxing looked at one of his classmates taking a picture of Dan Heng hugging him from behind.
"Stop!"
Some of the schoolmates were laughing as Yinxing was cursing at Dan Heng, who was hugging his best friend as a big tease.
But he was really happy. Because Dan Heng really hoped to have at least Yinxing by his side a little more in his life...
"Ah..."
"Damn..."
"I hadn't time to... tell him... many things... Fuck.."
***
Blade had no idea what to do.
He felt annoyed, he felt furious, he felt many negative feelings but he wouldn't still move away from Dan Heng, who was sleeping peacefully, with his tail wrapped around his waist, and the hands holding the kimono at the height of the chest
Blade moved a little on the side, looking at Dan Heng and sighed "How can you look so holy when we both know you do hit hard" he tried not to laugh as he did get in his mind the image of the Imbibitor kicking his brother and headbutting the guards "That was so amusing"
He knew how hard he was able to hit, so he actually felt so satisfied. He sadly couldn't punish his brother, because he was second line in succession and the Emperor still hadn't grant Blade anything that would make him be something more.
Blade was the fifth in succession, so he was pretty low on rank. He knew Dan Heng would have raised his importance till actually pushing the Emperor to give him the crown prince title as the Imbibitor was the key for the Holy Lands surrender.
Dan Heng moved a little and stretched violently to then freeze as he felt he hit something close with his hands.
"You.... seriously?!" Blade touched his nose as he didn't expect Dan Heng to wake up and already choosing violence out of nowhere.
Dan Heng opened up his eyes and shouted as he tried to get distance till falling from the bed and hitting the night table with his head "FUUUCK!" he shouted, to then fall on the ground feeling, crying a little from pain "What the fuck? Why are you in my bedroom you pervert!""
Blade laid the hand on his own forehead and sighed heavily. He did swear he wanted to give half of his lands just to see him back to sleep again next to him. But then he got in his mind that was how the Imbibitor was normally.
"Ah..." Dan Heng's eyes opened up in fear as he noticed his clothes strawn on the floor and then he touched himself, seeing he was wearing a night robe "AH!" he exclaimed "WHY AM I NAKED UNDER THIS?!"
"You're in my bedroom" Blade stretched as the position he slept wasn't actually the best because of Dan Heng's hold he kept the whole night "Stop shouting or I will seriously... shut you up" his lips twitched having no idea how to deal with Dan Heng being terrified again
"My ass doesn't hurt..." Dan Heng whispered to himself in panic to then open a little the night robe, seeing his skin perfectly fine. The Prince looked and couldn't help but seeing his tail moving nervously and think that he was looking cute, but then his eyes opened up when Dan Heng opened more his own night robe to look at his own naked body
Blade rushed off the bed to get close to him and cover him back "What the... hell are you doing?!" he gnashed his teeth and Dan Heng looked at him with a mad stare
"Checking if you did something so I can prove to the fucking judge I am a fucking victi..." he blocked himself to then cry inside "Oh right, I forgot here the law is the sexual offender himself.. Of course of course"
Blade rolled his eyes annoyed to then cross his arms and smirk "Now now, should I tell you, you did come to my bedroom? You pushed me and you didn't want to let me go."
Dan Heng got surprised and he held his head, feeling it burning "Ah..." he closed his eyes to then flinch as he felt Blade's arms around his waist to lift him from the floor and lay on the bed "Huh?"
"You" Blade pinched is nose "Why did you drink alcool if you're so light head" he gnashed his teeth and Dan Heng felt embarassed "You literally threw yourself on one of my shinobi and then you kept calling Yinxing and begged me not to let you go" he explained "Do you remember anything before?"
"Of course... I..." Dan Heng stroke his hair confused "Oh wait... I did manage to heal Ryu... Right? I did it!" he smiled happily under Blade's puzzled stare
"Nothing else?"
Dan Heng crossed his arms "I guess...?" he tilted his head confused "You haven't... We haven't done anything, right? God, if my mother knows I had a wild night with a psycho she would shout she had her reasons to avoid me from reading fanfiction because she didn't want me to develop passion for toxic male leads in those manhwas, fuck fuck..." he spoke fast at himself and Blade grabbed his wrist, trying to get his attention
"Stop overtalking" Blade felt weird when Dan Heng raised his head and looked at him with those eyes "Ah..." he leant closer "Do you think I did enjoy your company as you were drunk?"
Dan Heng sighed "Well, you always look like you can't wait to do that with the Imbibitor so SORRY IF I THOUGHT YOU DID!" he exclaimed and Blade's lips twitched
"Do you think of me as animal?" his eyes burnt as he noticed Dan Heng raising his finger "Don't you dare." and the half dragon lowered the finger to then roll his eyes, feeling embarassed as he was sat on Blade's bed, with him in front.
Blade had his night robe a little messy, and he could easily see his shoulder naked. Well, they also had a bath together so theorically seeing him like that shouldn't have given him any effect.
"Stay here a little longer" the Prince said as he was undressing himself and Dan Heng shouted to then grab a chair. Blade turned a little as he was slowly letting the night robe slip off his body to then block as he noticed Dan Heng holding the chair like a weapon "What the hell are you doing?"
"sTay hEre a LitTle lOnger" he did imitate his voice "I am just keeping distance and precautions"
"Do you really think you can..." Blade opened up his eyes, seeing Dan Heng throwing literally the chair at him "Are you insane?!" he shouted as he dodged the chair
"I think I am" he cried out to then point the finger at him "I dare you to do anything weird, I fucking swear, I thought you were awful, but maaan, your brother gave me more ptsds in one night than you, this is a tragedy level you know?!"
"I am going to have headache" Blade sighed annoyed and Dan Heng stopped, feeling weird as he was actually calm "Glad you got back to yourself fully"
"Of course I did" Dan Heng felt weird, he crossed his arms and Blade smirked
"It seems you slept good in my arms after all" Blade commented annoyed, showing him his back as he was changing and Dan Heng blushed to then look away, feeling embarassed "Stay in the room, I will set my brother off, then you will be free to roam wherever you want." he said as he wore the layers of his usual noble kimono to then turn and notice Dan Heng moved.
He couldn't help but laugh as he noticed he was under the bedsheets, but his tail was a little off the bed.
"I am wondering why we took so long to catch you if you're this dumb" Blade sighed and at that point Dan Heng got off the bedsheets, and blocked himself as he noticed the Prince sat on the bed with his face close to his "Yes? Did you want to reply like you always do?" he smirked
Dan Heng's lips twitched to then get back under the bedsheets without saying a word.
Blade crossed his arms amused to then laugh. He grabbed his sword and stretched "I will send you Toyo when you can be free" he opened the door to then stop "One last thing, next time you get drunk in my manor, I will not forgive you, so you better behave."
Dan Heng, after he heard the sound of the door closing, he did peek out the bedsheets and sighed in relief.
He sat on the bed and looked around to then focus on his own hands "I want to see Ryu.." he crossed his arms "Did he seriously ask me to stay to avoid to see his brother?" his lips twitched "Of course, I am going to kick him straight to his balls he will be called Princess, that motherfucker" he sighed "From all the people... Why did I get wasted and ended up with Blad.." he opened up his eyes as he could see some flashes of the night and he got shivers "Damn it" he stroke his own hair "How... That pervert didn't actually... do anything" he muttered lost in his thoughts "I probably reached a new level of pity to his eyes to the point of being not arousing... GREAT!" exclaimed to then laugh at his own thoughts "You're welcome, Imbibitor, I am sure your talent was healing, mine is making perverts pity me to the point on losing interest, HAH!" he blushed to then get again under the bed "Fuuuuck!" he cried out "I have been so pathetic"
After some hours, someone knocked at the door and Dan Heng opened up his eyes under the bedsheets.
"If I reply and it's not Yukimura or Toyo... I might get myself in a bad spot..." he whispered to himself to then fake his death.
"I knew I'd find you here."
Dan Heng opened up his eyes to then get off the bedsheets seeing Ryu, Toyo and Yukimura entering
"Damn, he didn't even let anyone bring you clothes, your Highness today must be super careful" Ryu laughed as he was holding Dan Heng's kimono.
Yukimura and Toyo closed the door and laid against it, looking at Dan Heng getting behind the room divider and changing fast with Ryu helping him.
"Your Highness Haru is still planning to stay for a while longer. Apparently he has an appointment somewhere, so your Highness must still host him in the manor. He gave us the order to get out" Yukimura explained as he sighed "We will escort you to the city, as long as we're not in the manor, it's going to be fine"
Dan Heng peeked out the divider and raised his eyebrow "What? He let me roam even outside the manor?! Is he drunk or something?"
Ryu laughed a little and Toyo cleared his throat, wondering how the fierce Prince was letting Dan Heng's way to speak slide that easily, man, being the Imbibitor was actually good in some ways.
"Your Highness and his brother will probably end up fighting because of your act, Imbibitor" Toyo said with an obvious tone "You made him bleed... a noble" he said and Yukimura nodded, making Dan Heng step outside the room with them
"So what? He did deserve more, he killed Ryu in front of my eyes, hello? Fuck sake, you all sometimes speak like I am the fucking weirdo one" he walked and Ryu, Toyo and Yukimura stopped to look at each others and sigh, looking at Dan Heng walking towards the exit of the manor
He wanted to shout "FREEDOM, SCOTLAND FOREVERRR" but of course nobody would have cought his meme quote and he got sad in a glance.
Ryu walked side by side with him as the two shinobi were keeping their distance to check all the arounds and be sure Haru didn't send any of his guards.
Dan Heng for a moment was stunned by the beauty of the city. It looked like those ancient japanese cities of many historical novels he used to read. So many markets along the streets, wooden buildings, pavillons, different academies students walking around with their kimonos on, beautiful ladies walking with their maids.
"This is... so beautiful" he smiled and the shinobis looked proud to then flinch as they noticed Dan Heng's smile becoming a sad one "How can that... man live and be the owner of a land this beautiful? Makes no sense" he muttered confused
"Your Highness Blade is actually respected in our Lands, he brought many victories" Yukimura spoke as Ryu was checking the markets, trying to find something
"And now also the Imbibitor" Toyo smiled proud "People will love him even more, I am sure the Emperor will be forced to give him the Crown Prince title" Toyo added
"I feel kinda like a toy or an award" Dan Heng's lips twitched to then notice some ladies and people actually stopping to look at him.
Yukimura nodded "You.. kinda are"
"Thanks."
"But you also have personality!" Toyo spoke, trying to make Dan Heng feel better, but he was just feeling like a clown, center of the stage.
Ryu noticed more people whispering and looking at Dan Heng.
Of course, he was the only half dragon.
His green eyes shined and grabbed Dan Heng's arm, making the two shinobi flinch. Dan Heng got surprised at Ryu's grasp, but smiled and felt his heart beating happily, a soft warmth.
"He's alive." he would keep repeating that to his head. It wasn't normal in his world to revive people, but he was glad... He wished he was that powerful, but yeah, he couldn't go back anyway to his world apparently.
"I will buy you this!" Ryu exclaimed, showing a jade bracelet and Dan Heng felt embarassed
"Why?"
"Yes, why? And with what money? Your Highness doesn't give you money as you're defined as prisoners in the manor after all" Toyo said and Ryu smiled innocently "Wait..."
"Pleaseeee" Ryu's eyes were sparkling and the two shinobi had their lips twitching "Look at him!" he grabbed Dan Heng's cheeks and made him look at them with his cheeks puffed by his hands "Wouldn't he look adorable with a gift like that? The jade bracelet suits his horns and tail.. Or maybe we could buy a bigger jade bracelet and put it around the end of his tail!"
Dan Heng blushed hard as Ryu grabbed his tail and the two shinobi noticed how the Imbibitor reacted and felt flustered
"Ryu... I told you it's sensible" he muttered with his cheeks red
"Kawaii" the two shinobi whispered to then look at each others and almost stab themselves
"C'mon!" Ryu said annoyed "He's making Your Highness stand out his awful brothers, he will surely be the crown prince so... Please!"
Yukimura sighed to then nod and pay for the bracelet. His blue eyes looked at Dan Heng wearing it.
Dan Heng looked at his own wrist and felt embarassed. In his world he wouldn't wear those things but he really thought it was... good. He smiled and he looked at the shinobi and Ryu "Thank you, I really... like it" he stroke his long hair
For a moment, Ryu and the shinobi thought that the Imbibitor was looking effortlessly beautiful. That smile, the embarassed tone, his cheeks a little red and those blue shiny eyes. Whenever he wasn't swearing or nervous (=most of the times) he would seriously look ethereal.
Toyo looked around and sighed "Haru's guards" he looked at Yukimura and he nodded, like in a glance they knew already what to do.
Toyo ran up the roof and disappeared in no time from their sight.
"What the fuck? Is he a kangaroo?" Dan Heng commented to then open up his eyes as Yukimura pushed Ryu and him out of the main street.
He made them enter in a building.
"Stay inside, the guards are probably looking for the Imbibitor to punish him"
"What the fuck? Fifty Shades of Haru?" Dan Heng grit his teeth "I didn't do anything, he should die for real and this is Blade's city, I..."
Ryu covered Dan Heng's mouth, trying to stop him from cursing the royal family and Yukimura sighed
"Listen, stay covered, Haru is untouchable as he's the second in succession. He can actually even tell the guards to fight me and Toyo, we're just going to split and lure them away from your position. Ryu, keep the Imbibitor inside. I know it's not that holy, but everyone here is mostly drunk. Just find a room and keep his tail and horns hidden, got it?" he crossed his arms "And don't use this moment to try to escape or I will personally kill you and bring the Imbibitor back"
Ryu looked around, feeling nervous and sighed "Got it." with that glance, Yukimura disappeared from their sight.
"Ah, what an unpleasant place" Ryu and Dan Heng were inside a big building with many people watching dancers and performers.
"Unpleasant? It's beautiful! It's like a theatre, I love music!" Dan Heng clapped happily to then close his eyes for a moment as he noticed Ryu covering his horns with a layer of the kimono and the tail to then grab his hand and move out of the crowd to get in one of the corridors
He got in a room and sat on the ground "Damn, I can't wait for that man to leave the town" he sighed to then notice Dan Heng looking around "You seriously don't know what this place is?"
"I think I got it" Dan Heng "It's like a nightclub" he said with an obvious face and Ryu tilted his head to then laugh
"I thought you would be shouting in panic for how sinful this place is. The performers are sensual and beautiful" he sighed and Dan Heng laughed
"Trust me, I know what sinful is and that doesn't look too bad... I like music as well" he said and Ryu nodded
"I know! The flute! It's told the Imbibitor can charm even tyrants and monsters with his music"
"The fuck you talking about?" Dan Heng opened up his eyes to then laugh nervously "Oh nono, ancient tomes, right?" he laughed "I don't play the flute... The Zither... my mot... I learnt... my master was like a mother for me" he explained and Ryu crossed his arms confused
"Weird... I thought I heard you the day before we got conquered... You were playing the flute from your room, no?" he asked as he stand up and Dan Heng stroke his own hair nervous
"No, that was my... another priest, I can't even breath you know" he spoke nervously to then hit himself and Ryu tilted his head confused
"I guess.." he sighed and Dan Heng stroke his own hair "Dan Heng... Thank you... for saving me"
Dan Heng looked at Ryu "Bro, I don't know how I did it, but I am glad you're here, you're my only friend, and we promised we would work hard together to stay alive, I would have never forgiven you" he said and Ryu laughed
"Indeed, we're in this hell together" he crossed his arms "Even though your Highness has been quite nice today"
Dan Heng almost choked to then nod a little "Yeah right... He didn't harrass me today, progress" he said ironically.
Toyo and Yukimura were nowhere to be seen.
It was shortly past afternoon and Dan Heng and Ryu had to literally change room whenever someone was knocking. They had to literally fake they were two lovers in the wrong room.
Dan Heng was dying of embarassment
"How long... I want to get out or... can I go check the instruments room?" he asked and Ryu held his hand tight
"No! We have to look like we're clients and enjoying the place"
"But I fucking hate it! We're not even looking at the performances!" he cried annoyed "And I am actually starving"
"Dan Heng" Ryu laughed a little "You really sound like a baby"
"What are you doing?!" a woman shouted as she noticed Ryu holding Dan Heng's wrist "You peasant, that's your Highness'!"
She grabbed Dan Heng, who looked kinda confused "Get out before I call the guards, you peasant!" she looked at Dan Heng "The room is ready, I got told your Highness is really mad, so you better prepare a good performance and give your best service, understood?!"
"Who the fuck are you now?!" Dan Heng shouted to then get slapped, making Ryu's eyes wide open
"How dare you? Do you think since you're and Tayu you can speak to me like this?!"
"Tayu?" Dan Heng tilted his head to then open up his eyes as Tayu were the high rank courtesan of the ancient traditions. "BRO?! EXCUSE ME? FUCK YOU?!"
"STAY CALM PLEASE" Ryu held him and the mistress was furious
"You wrench!" she shouted "I hope the noble will make you suffer like hell!" she looked at the guards of the pavillon and pointed the finger at Ryu who soon got kicked off the place.
"I am a man!" Dan Heng shouted as he got thrown inside the room.
The woman crossed her arms "So what? In this place, I am the Mistress. I got told a man chosen for the nobles pleasure would end up here and you're new and definitely from the town. Let me tell you I dislike outsiders but I can't say no to any noble, so stay here and stop roaming around."
She closed the door and locked it making Dan Heng question his life choices.
"BROOOOO" he shouted to then look around the big room. It was definitely a vip room and he did tremble. There was big bed with so much food prepared around and then a little stage where he probably had to prepare a performance.
"I became a stripper in the end" he cried inside to then cross his arms "Wait... I am sure Ryu is trying to find Toyo and Yukimura" he undressed himself and wore the garments meant for the performer.
"Okay, new survival archievment" he spoke to himself as he was wearing a red kimono with a big opening showing the cleavage and the tie was loose "For God sake, why are all nobles sexually frustrated here?" he cried inside to then wear red light garments as uppercoat. He moved the room dividers in order to make the stage only able to be seen from the bed.
Dan Heng had basically the idea to make the noble sit on the bed in order to watch the performance. With that, he would have bought time, hopefully enough time for Ryu and the shinobi to get there before anything worse would happen.
I mean, at worst Dan Heng would have punched the noble to death.
Good plan.
***
"I can't fucking believe I am here." Blade was walking, holding his sword "Haru wanted to stay more just to try a new room with his Tayu but he ran away... And now his guards are looking for him everywhere" he was trying not to lose it as he was walking inside the brothel
The Mistress was confused when she saw Blade "Your Highness!"
Blade looked furious and she smiled nervously "What brings you here? May I offer you a tea or a private performance?" she asked and Blade rolled his eyes annoyed
"Haru's Tayu, did he say anything when he ran away?"
"Ran away?" the mistress got confused "He hasn't, he's waiting for his Highness in the noble chamber" she crossed her arms "Your Highness knows we all respect only you" she bowed elegantly "I made sure I gave him a little lesson"
"You did well... This is going to be the last time you see him" Blade's eyes were burning of madness "As much as I hate my brother, he's a royal and nobody should play tricks like this. My city is full of his guards because apparently he did trick him... He ordered his execution so if he's here" he smiled insanely as he was holding the sword "I will bring him his cute head."
The Mistress pointed the corridor where the noble room was and Blade smirked to then walk. He was glad because with that, Haru would have been away and his headache level would have gone back to just the fact Dan Heng was around him and nothing else.
When he opened the door he almost laughed as he noticed the room dividers put like a frontier. He thought the man knew he would have been cought and so he decided to die with one last performance in his usual place.
Sadly for him, he couldn't run away from nobles' grasp.
Fun fact; apparently yes.
Since the Tayu did manage to run away from the city as Toyo and Yumikura, when they saw Haru's guards, thought they were looking for Dan Heng.
Haru's guards thought the two shinobi were running to find the Tayu first, but they were luring them outside the city to fight.
So... in the end the two factions just made the Tayu ran away easily and... Dan Heng get again in between because I mean, luck, and of course, plot.
The little perks of being the main character... Oh no, anyway.
Blade let his sword slip on the floor to make the Tayu know he was there.
Dan Heng kept his gaze low on the zither he had in front of his. Blade sat on the bed with a smirk, enjoying the last performance of the Tayu.
It was entertaining, because Haru never cared about any performance. In his lands, people knew him as a crudel and rough lover.
Blade was trying to look at the Tayu, looking more like a princess in that moment. The curtains of the big imperial bed were making it hard to look at him, in the center of the stage, sat with his hands already prepared for the performance.
He could notice a red long garment keeping partially his long black hair away from the face. His eyes had a light red garment that would cover partially the colour. He would look actually good and a little sensual for his likings. The kimono was opened wide, showing the shoulders as a big red and golden garment was covering his body an partially the floor around him.
He definitely wanted to die at his best look apparently.
Blade really thought to even have fun for a moment.
Dan Heng was trembling and he was cursing himself as his hands didn't want to start the song. He heard a sword hitting playfully the floor, like the noble wanted him to start.
"What do... I play? Mom?" Dan Heng sighed trying to remember one of the songs he loved to play with his mother. She was a master with the Zither, one of the best and he of course learnt from her. He sighed and tried to recall a song that would be long, he had to buy more time.
His eyes opened up and he smiled once the hands started plucking the instrument.
Blade blocked his sword from hitting the floor as the music started to play. He had no idea how it was possible but he felt like he heard that melody before.
"Honestly I couldn't believe I did enjoy her concert when you invited me..."
"I am glad... I am still not as good as her..."
Blade felt his head burning for a moment. Just why would he get whispers of him and Dan Heng talking? About what? He couldn't really get why. Maybe it was because he was sleep deprived and it was because of Dan Heng himself.
He gnashed his teeth, to then feel just charmed. He really loved that music, he swore it was his favorite but how if it was the first time hearing it? He surely used to go sometimes to brothel and have some fun because he didn't want concubines roaming in his palace, but he never heard that music.
Something in his heart was shouting that he loved it, for no apparent reason.
Dan Heng smiled, happy he finally had time to play the instrument he loved... Memories of him and his mother, Yinxing enjoying his practise day and asking everytime to play his favorite song
College made it hard to keep practising, but Yinxing would always be glad to hear him playing. He smiled thinking that wherever he was, he might still be able to hear his zither.
His hands stopped, announcing the end of the song and also the end of the charm Blade felt on the other side of the chamber.
Sure, that man was gifted, Blade thought, but he did dare to trick the royal family.
Dan Heng's hands were trembling. He left a glance and noticed the man standing up with his sword.
Blade was about to move the courtains. He had a smirk as he noticed the man sitting, with his gaze lower to the zither like he was accepting his death.
"I am sorry" Dan Heng whispered as his hands were trembling on the zither, Blade of course couldn't hear him "But your sacrifice will help me bro" he did caress the zither... one last time.
Blade's red eyes opened up, because in a glance, he couldn't expect the man to stand up and literally YEET the zither towards him, to then run away towards the door.
"What the hell?!" Blade dodged the zither and look at the man who tried to run to the door. He laughed insanely because he fell almost on his feet and hit the door with his head.
Actually, Dan Heng fell because of those damn garments he put around himself to cover horns and tail. Of course the layers were heavy and entangled to his tail.
Dan Heng groaned in pain when instead of the hand, since he almost fell on his feet, got to the door with his head against it "Fuuck" he cried inside to then feel his body pushed against the wall.
"Did you think you can run away?" Blade whispered as his hand was holding the waist of the man as his lips were almost touching the naked shoulder of his. The sword was already in front of his throat.
Dan Heng turned a little and Blade opened up his eyes as he could definitely notice something familiar behind that red garment covering his eyes.
He slowly let the sword cut the red garment and he didn't know what to say. Was it a joke? Was he haunting him or what? And Why the hell did he always have to meet him wearing revealing clothes and looking so beautiful to his eyes.
Dan Heng's blue eyes were staring into his in a moment of shock just like his. Blade still couldn't believe he had him in his arms "Dan Heng..?" he blinked more times like he thought they did drug him or something to see the Holy Imbibitor dressed as a courtesan.
"THAT WAS SO SCARY, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Dan Heng shouted almost falling against the wall, feeling all his anxiety and panic getting away "Dude... Oh my... My heart" he cried feeling embarassed and sighing in relief
Blade was for a moment confused and even more blinded.
And mad.
"Me?!" Blade held him tight to him "What the hell are you doing here Dan Heng?!" he asked to then roll his eyes "Of course it was you... You threw a damn zither at me, who else could do that" he spoke to himself, feeling himself done with Dan Heng
"It's a long story..."
