AN: I am so sorry. I took a sudden leave yesterday but I am back in business. See you tomorrow in the comments and thank you so much for your constant support.
The room was dim, shadows dancing along the walls, a sanctuary carved out from the chaos of the world outside. Han Xin lay on the soft quilt, nestled against Xiang Yu, wrapped in an embrace that felt like a fleeting dream.
He had told Sirius to wait twelve hours for this very reason. The urgent summons and the calls of duty... he ignored them all. At this moment, nothing mattered but the warmth of Xiang Yu beside him.
Xiang Yu's chest rose and fell beneath Han Xin's ear, steady and strong. The rhythmic thrum of his heartbeat filled the silence, a comforting drumbeat in the stillness.
Han Xin felt happy here, surrounded by the scent of Xiang Yu's pheromones, a blend that was uniquely his. An arm tightened around Xiang Yu's waist, pulling him closer as if to merge their hearts into one.
