Watching Yeehyeon swallow the medicine, Liu took the water glass from him. Looking up at Liu’s furrowed brow, Yeehyeon smiled as if finding him incorrigible.
“Kun, I’m not taking this because I’m sick.”
“I know.”
“Then why do you make that face every time I take my suppressants?”
“That’s because…”
It’s because I feel sorry for you. If he hadn’t met me, he could have lived an ordinary life as a Beta, without the hassle of taking medicine like this. —But he couldn’t say such a thing to Yeehyeon. It would be a remark that disrespected Yeehyeon’s decision to choose a future with him. Besides, he didn’t even want to entertain the hypothetical ‘if he hadn’t met me.’
Yeehyeon came closer and rested his chin on the edge of Liu’s shoulder as Liu placed the water glass in the sink.
“You still feel sorry… don’t you?”
“Me? No.”
“I’m a Diamond Dust. As long as I love A Wei, I’m bound to become an Omega.”
“Yes, I know.”
A Beta who was bound to become an Omega as long as he loved him.
That was precisely what he felt sorry about, but he couldn’t apologize for making Yeehyeon fall in love with him.
“And it’s not A Wei’s fault that I’m a Diamond Dust.”
Liu turned to face his lover. A shy and introverted man who held his own precious convictions, and who would never bend on those convictions. He looked up at Liu with calm yet firm black eyes.
“A Wei’s fault was getting the order wrong. Don’t feel sorry for anything else.”
Liu wrapped his arms around Yeehyeon’s lower back. He pressed his lips to his forehead and whispered like an oath.
“I won’t. My angel.”

While shampooing each other’s hair and rubbing each other’s bodies with shower gel foam, the two became playfully entangled like boys. Of course, it was a rather suggestive sort of play.
They giggled as they squeezed foam from the sponge and lathered it on the other’s genitals, pubic hair, and nipples. Yeehyeon even used Liu’s foam-filled hair to make two small horns on either side of his head.
“Look, it suits you.”
Yeehyeon pointed at the mirror, delighted. Liu turned to the long, vertical mirror on one of the shower stall’s tiled walls and wiped the hazy, steamy surface with his large palm. He turned his head this way and that, looking at the fan-shaped clear patch in the mirror.
“Ha, so you’ve decided to play such a prank on my face?”
Coming up behind him, Yeehyeon pressed his chin on the edge of Liu’s shoulder in the mirror and fiddled with the hair-horns. He looked utterly satisfied.
“You’re cute. Like a cute devil.”
“A devil… an incubus?”
His eyes still locked with Yeehyeon’s in the mirror, Liu reached his arm back and grabbed Yeehyeon’s buttock.
“Ugh.”
“You know incubi can have children with humans, right?”
“I can’t yet, I’m still in the middle of presenting.”
Liu quickly wrapped an arm around Yeehyeon’s waist and spun him half a turn. In an instant, Yeehyeon was in his arms, facing him. From under lowered eyelids, his gray-blue eyes gazed at Yeehyeon with a deepened look.
“You never know. You’re special.”
“……”
“My Diamond Dust.”
He whispered, so close it seemed his lips would press against Yeehyeon’s at any moment.
Under the stream of water pouring from above, Liu’s hair fell over his forehead. A water droplet traced a long path down from his brow bone over his deep-set eyes, and the water that ran down his prominent nose wet his parted lips.
Yeehyeon, standing opposite him, looked much the same. Liu threaded his fingers through Yeehyeon’s hair, which was plastered to his forehead, and swept it back. White shampoo foam from his thick black hair slid over Yeehyeon’s shoulders, down his back and chest.
Yeehyeon wrapped his hand around Liu’s wrist and caressed it, and the water that dripped from Liu’s lips and chin flowed onto Yeehyeon’s.
“Hah, hh…”
Liu’s hand touched Yeehyeon’s genitals. His wet hand, wrapped around the penis, stroked it in reverse, from the root to the glans.
“Ah… hahk, ha… uungh.”
Yeehyeon’s hands, braced against Liu’s chest, scratched and clutched at the skin as if to dig into the muscle beneath. Liu’s tongue, licking his own lower lip, was exceptionally red.
He handled Yeehyeon’s slender flesh skillfully. He knew everything—where to squeeze harder, where to gently release his grip to make the thing in his hand swell. The more his long fingers danced, the more Yeehyeon’s breathing quickened.
“Hoo-hoo… Ha! Hah…”
Liu lowered his head and pressed his lips right against Yeehyeon’s ear.
“Make me hard with your hands.”
Yeehyeon, who had been scratching at the broad, firm pectoral muscles, swallowed dryly. Then, he hesitantly fumbled his hand downward. Stroking the contours of the sharply defined abs, Yeehyeon said in a flushed tone.
“Your body… it’s gotten more solid.”
“Because the workout I used to do three or four times a week, I’m now doing every day?”
The daily workout Liu was referring to was sex.
Even while traveling, he did a high-intensity bodyweight routine for 40 minutes every morning, but he didn’t count that as a workout. To him, it was just a natural part of his daily life, like eating or showering. Just as Yeehyeon always made sure to set aside over an hour every day to draw, even while traveling.
“We, we didn’t do it every day.”
“What’s wrong with every day? When you’re with someone you love this much, it’s stranger to just fall asleep.”
Liu’s face tilted, and he kissed a long trail down Yeehyeon’s neck, from his ear to his collarbone.
“Hah, ugh… ha…”
Yeehyeon’s chin lifted, and his mind went blank and hazy, along with the steam.
They hadn’t had penetrative sex every time, but they had touched each other every night for 40 days. Even on days when they were so exhausted they passed out the moment they lay down, they shared kisses and caresses, if only in the shower. No matter how tired they were, the moment they saw each other’s naked bodies and became aware of the person beside them, sexual desire would, surprisingly, stir properly even in their exhausted bodies. It was enough to make one laugh in disbelief.
Besides, whether it involved penetration or not, Liu’s sex was varied.
He would lift Yeehyeon up, try various positions and angles, and above all, he never knew how to finish quickly. Once he started, he exerted himself enough to be drenched in sweat from head to toe. Even Yeehyeon, who was just mindlessly feeling pleasure, would be completely drained, so it was no wonder that sex was a workout for Liu.
Yeehyeon continuously stroked the broader shoulders, a result of his enlarged deltoids, and the deep grooves of his chest and abs. As if meticulously inspecting and appreciating their form.
Yeehyeon’s body had also become quite toned compared to when they first met, but he was still like a boy compared to Liu. It couldn’t be helped. Yeehyeon was naturally born with a delicate and slender frame rather than a brawny one. He wasn’t short, but his limbs, fingers, toes, and even his neckline were all long and graceful.
Not that his eyes had ever strayed to other tall, well-built men besides Liu. He had never felt sexual attraction to them either. So why was he so uniquely attracted to Liu’s physique, craving his body like a boy obsessed with his first partner?
Stroking Liu’s roundly swollen deltoid with his left hand, Yeehyeon slid his right hand deeper. He felt the flaccid penis, hanging heavy. He gently cupped the hefty testicles beneath it first.
“Mm…”
A savoring moan escaped Liu’s lips, which were sucking on the spot above Yeehyeon’s collarbone. Spurred by his reaction, Yeehyeon’s hand pressed and rubbed the testicles more sensuously. Proportional to the girth and length of his penis, his testicles were also generous. They were about the size of Yeehyeon’s fist, yet they didn’t hang loosely, but were shapely and held up nicely.
Whenever the tautly swollen oval testicles and the thick penis resting on them came into view, Yeehyeon always felt a heat simmering from the core of his body. As if Liu himself were calling to him. As if he were responding to that call with his body before words.
When he pulled down slightly and let go, the testicles swayed heavily. It was a different sensation from the swaying of the long penis. When Liu thrust his hips with his penis buried deep inside, his testicles would drum against the bottom of his anus. The memory of that weight and rhythm made his toes and fingertips tense up on their own.
Ugh. As if he’d misjudged his strength, Liu suddenly grabbed Yeehyeon’s wrist. When he looked up in surprise, the handsome, wet face was smiling through a wince.
“Pulling like that, are you playing with me?”
“Sorry. I was lost in thought… Did it hurt?”
“You were lost in thought while caressing between my legs?”
“That’s not it…”
“Lost in thought…”
Liu buried his nose deep in the crook of Yeehyeon’s neck and took a long, deep breath. Hhmm.
“While spritzing your pheromones like this?”
“……”
“I think you were having lewd thoughts, not just any thoughts.”
Liu’s hand, which had been holding Yeehyeon’s penis, began to move more relentlessly.
