The Mad King's Heir

Chapter 130: Climbing into someone’s bed

Li Jun looked at the last remaining piece of chicken. More than half of it had ended in his stomach, leaving him feeling incredibly guilty. If it was the chef who made it, then he could compensate them for their time, but since it was Yu Wen, it made the situation tricky.

"Now I feel bad eating it," he said, but he still took another bite.

Yan Jia smiled and lied with a straight face, "He is the one who offered, so why should you feel guilty about it? Eat, and after we are done, we can go take a walk." Li Jun agreed. He ate his fill, and after taking a walk, he got ready for bed.

After the incident with Helion, things were a lot quieter, but they were still on high alert. Yu Wen glanced at his hand, which had a small cut that was already healing. It was worth it, just like the bite mark on his neck. He smiled while rubbing the small cut.

He pulled back his freshly washed hair as he looked up, recalling the expression on Li Jun’s face when he told him who he wanted. Just thinking about that expression made his heart flutter. He bit his lower lip slightly and sat on his bed that was not as warm as last night.

"Ah-Jun, I will be good to you... if you just give me a chance," he whispered while caressing the pendant. With a soft sigh, he lay down facing the tent roof. He caught a whiff of Li Jun’s scent that still lingered on his pillow. Like a creep, he took a deep inhale, his eyes closed.

He didn’t know when he fell asleep. He was extremely exhausted but still alert, so when he heard a sound, he woke up instantly. He was about to get up and beat the living daylights out of the person who had the balls to come into his tent in the middle of the night, when he caught a whiff of the scent he was so obsessed with a few hours ago.

A small smile appeared on his face, and he closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep. He heard Li Jun calling his name, but he didn’t move. Li Jun, seeing that the man wasn’t moving, went to the side of the bed.

On the bedside table was a bottle of sleeping pills among other medications. Yu Wen had gotten those from his mother. She had given him a lot of medicines in case he needed them. Yu Wen took them with him to ease her mind. He just left them on his bedside table, but who would have thought that Li Jun would misunderstand? Li Jun thought he had taken them.

He sighed and put the bottle down. He knew that Yu Wen had barely managed to fall asleep ever since he showed up at this godforsaken place. He climbed on the bed and lay down next to him.

He caressed Yu Wen’s cheek and whispered, "Don’t blame me. It’s your fault your bed is more comfortable than mine." Li Jun had tried to fall asleep. He was tossing and turning for two hours. He really thought there was something wrong with his bed.

So like a thief in the night, he snuck into Yu Wen’s tent. He was right. This bed was much more comfortable. Li Jun stared at his face, which was half in the dark and half in the light. Yu Wen seemed much more peaceful than when he was awake.

It seemed all his worries had been swept away, and from the slight curl of his lips, he seemed to be having a good dream. "What are you dreaming about?" Li Jun whispered as he caressed his cheek with his thumb.

"Are you dreaming about me?" he said, his voice low as his thumb slid down to touch the man’s soft lips. With a feathery touch, he caressed Yu Wen’s lower lip. He thought of how sweet those lips tasted the last time he planted a kiss on them.

He pressed Yu Wen’s lower lip down, making the man’s mouth part open. Li Jun bit his own lips, thinking, ’It’s only a taste, right?’. ’Yu Wen wouldn’t mind, right?’ he thought, though he felt this was wrong. He couldn’t take advantage of a sleeping man.

The man who was sleeping suddenly shuffled closer till the tips of their noses were brushing against each other. Li Jun froze for a second. But when he realised that Yu Wen was still fast asleep, he exhaled softly.

With a slight smile on his lips, he whispered, "You asked for it." He leaned closer and kissed his lips. The kiss was fleeting, just short and sweet. Li Jun didn’t want to do too much. He licked Yu Wen’s lip, and just as he pulled back, feeling guilty, Yu Wen placed his hand at the back of his neck and pulled him closer. His movement was so sudden.

Li Jun’s gasp was swallowed when Yu Wen’s mouth crashed into his hard. His tongue slid past Li Jun’s lips, sending an electric jolt all over his body.

Li Jun’s entire body went numb, and he was staring at the man who still had his eyes closed in awe. "Yu," he whispered, but Yu Wen took the chance, his tongue slipping into Li Jun’s mouth, tasting and claiming him.

Li Jun couldn’t resist such temptation. He met his tongue with his own, and a low sound escaped his throat. Heat surged in Li Jun’s body as they deepened the kiss. The bed creaked under their weight.

His hands wrapped around Yu Wen’s shoulders. His fingers gripped the fabric of Yu Wen’s shirt. His rational mind was telling him to let go, but his need was too strong. He couldn’t bear to let this opportunity slip.

As though thinking his exact sentiment, Yu Wen rolled him in one fluid motion and pressed him down on the bed. The bed creaked loudly in the tent. The sound snapped Li Jun out of it. He opened his eyes and stared at Yu Wen’s face in the dark.

Before he could say anything, Yu Wen parted his thighs and slid in between his legs. When Yu Wen’s body pressed up against his, he could feel the majestic hardness rubbing against his.

"Fuck," he swore under his breath.
