Thes sat on his magnificent bed, his golden eyes looked away and set at the balcony. A peaceful wind then brushed against his face gently as it carried the scent of flowers from his garden. He lowered his gaze on his hands thus he gracefully stood up, made his way towards the balcony. He smell the scent of flower that still linger in the air as he took downward look from his castle. He can see it clearly. The sight of his people living their lives, their laugh, smile put an ease on his heart.
How peaceful.
Then, his personal maids came inside and assisted him to dress up. A white short kilt on his waist, pleated and cinched with a belt, followed by a gold necklace wore around his neck. Simple-elegant thus befitting for a ruler of the Land of Dessert.
- Hall -
His walk was steady, powerful, no one can deny his aura hence, he walked to his golden grand seat. A throne which was made for him. He turned around as he sat down, his subjects, all bowed down to him. He was certain that he was the one who will rule the land. Everything was good until-
"Darling~"
Everyone including Thes himself looked at the owner. The man with a pair of red eyes, white hair and pale skin. He was a stark in the land of which black is dominant hue. Still, Elam's attention was at Thes. He smiled and with no hesitation slowly approaches Thes as if he was drawn to him.
What is this man doing? Why's he coming here? TCH! Annoying.
Elam's actions however made Thes clenched his jaw, gripped his fist tight and his veins were showing. He scanned Elam from the bottom to the top and lowered his gaze until he met Elam's eyes.
"My Lord, what're you doing here?" He asked though, a sound of irritation was beneath it yet he still put a smile on his face, waiting for the man's reply.
Thes's question made Elam's eyes went right and left. It then stopped after a moment and went back to Thes. He looked at Thes like a little child. Elam looked at him like a pitiful-innocent eyes.
Don't tell me- He come here-
Elam blinked in confusion. Thes then scoffed.
Seems like he come here for no purpose. Strange.
Thes tilted his head as if he was in confusion. Though, his mind were filled with curiosity, he did not take a long moment to stand up and went to leave. Watching as Thes left, Elam felt an urge to follow him behind, he want to know Thes more.
- Outside the hall-
The shadow of a man. Thes can sense it that Elam was following him behind yet as they are getting closer to his garden. His footsteps slowed down.
This man-Was he truly the savior?
Thes take a a quick glance at Elam as he turned to walk even further to his garden. His slow footstep gradually went slower until he stopped. A peek of Thes gave to Elam earlier made Elam's heart shaken a bit, he was surprised however was pleased by Thes's action.
He-he~ Thes actually checked me out. How cute~
They stood there quietly, no one seems to make any move until Thes turned to Elam, looking at Elam in front him. His heart tickled. A light shined behind of Thes made his pair of red eyes even brighter, his pale skin was shining and those white hair glowed did not make the tickling sensation stopped any moments later.
That is weird. This man- Why my heart feel like this?
Thes shift his look to his chest and looked up to Thes and he leaned even closer. Caught off guard,Thes's eyes widened up as Elam pulled Thes to his embrace. Thes could not react fast, but he felt a cold skin pressed to his face and it was gentle. The smell of Elam's scent, the scent of mint brushed him with a fresh air around Elam. He peeked at Elam, he watched as Elam took his gloves off, he pull them with his mouth. Thes watched this, could only be silent. His tickling heart beat even faster, his face felt hot in Elam's embrace.
That was- weird. What was that?
His face felt hot. So hot he never felt that, no one had ever done that to him. Not that people would not but they do not dared to yet this man carelessly touching him in the places people could dreamed to hold, this man barged in his barrier. He can feel Elam's gentle hand was patting his head slowly, kissed his forehead with his lip and he stroked his face tenderly. Thes did not move, he was staring at Elam, his mind went blank as this man made his move on him. "Are you okey, Thes?", Elam's eyebrow arched up and down, concerned and confused.
I thought he'd more aggressive. Was i wrong?
Realized what were they doing, Thes's pride almost shattered but he slowly pushed Elam away. This man-How could he-touched me however he want -I- He gritted his teeth.
His expression became dark so he turned away from Elam. Battled with what just happened, he put his hand on his chest, feel the beat on his heart. "Did I do something wrong?", Elam asked again.
Sh*t. What I'm supposed to say? A sweat drop from Thes's forehead as Elam waited for his response yet he did not gave any response at all.
Hngh... This is embrassing. I should get away.
Thes tried to walk his way out of the situation but Elam again took his wrist and pulled him back to his embrace. Eek-Stop-Stop it
His slow heart rate which has slowed down back to beat fast, Elam's hands feel so good as they brushed against his skin. Damn it-Stop beating so fast-That's now way-I
Feel something for this man. "Move." Dumb-founded, Elam raised his eyebrow and suddenly he can feel his hands were loosening around Thes' s body. It was Thes pushing him again.
"Annoying." Struck with Thes's words, Elam pouted. Like a kid that their candy were taken, Elam was sulking as he felt it was rather unfair. That he-was pushed away-
You leaned to me first. Hmph.
"You leaned to me first so, I thought you want a hug. Darling~"
Elam pouted again, his expression was pitiful. As if he was just being scolded, he folded his arms and turned his head away. He was turned his body away from Thes, trying to get some comfort from him but Thes, on other hand did not even spare him a glance.
Why's he not doing anything? Hm? Eh...
Thes left without any words. He went to the direction of his room. Leaving Elam alone, sulking all by himself.
What? He just left me here???
Elam looked pitiful as he watched Thes left.
- Thes's room-
"Ha."
He covered his face with both hands. His face was pure red, his ears even turned redder, Thes felt something that day. That man-was dangerous. That gentle touch, the kiss and the pat-all of it dangerously triggered something in Thes. Waking something in Thes that he never felt before.
I have to get him away or-I'll be weirder.
"First." Thes looked around, confirming that no one but him in the room, he let his thoughts out. "How to get rid of him?", he sighed heavily. His body temperature was still hot, every inches of his touch made Thes twitched as he remembered the moment.
Stuck in a deep talk, Thes did not realize Elam was on his way went to check on him until-he heard a knock outside his room.
Why's he here? No. Not now.
He stood outside of Thes's room. His hand pressed on the door, he felt Thes's presence behind the door and what confused him was Thes did not move from the door. Elam rubbed his chin.
Is he mad or something? Hm...
"Thes. Are you...okay?" He asked in a soft tone, his call put Thes in a jolt. He did not expect Elam to come to check on him. He turned to door, panicked. He looked around his room again, he backed off the door a little.
No, if he-come right now-in this state-I
Thes gritted his teeth, his pride was on risk. He cannot let Elam see him in that embarrassing situation. "I'm-I'm fine.", he said in panic, hoping that Elam would buy his words. But-
Elam on the side of the door had a different reaction. He knew that this was something rare so he reached his hand to the door handle. Thes then approached the door, he put his right ear close to it to check if Elam was leaving. Suddenly, Elam barged inside and without warning caused Thes fell down.
"Argh!" Thes closed his eyes instinctively. However, he did not felt the fall, but instead, he felt that man's arm again. He opened his eyes slowly, Elam looked at him softly made Thes flushed. His heart rate went burst at that rate.
I can't-This is too-
"Oh my, darling~ You should be more careful." Elam chuckled. Thes's face was red. Elam's eyes were shining with hope, he looked at Elam with soft gaze. Thes is so cute.
Touching Thes's body, he rubbed his finger around his waist and the view was great.
Ugh, I want to touch him, but that's not good. Hua~
Elam looked at him with longing. His breath was heavy. Suddenly, the room became hot, Elam sweated a little. I can't... Just not yet.
Thes blinked. He hitched, he noticed that rub and so "My Lord, you...can let me go now.", he said. Elam was still holding him tightly, though Thes told him to let go, Thes blinked again at Elam.
"Oh?" Elam lowered his eyes until he reached to Thes's waist, and he was enjoying the views. Those golden eyes. The nude lip. Those chests. That tanned skin. It was indeed seductive. Hahaha. This can drive me crazy...
"My Lord?" broke Elam's thoughts. He then laughed awkwardly. He slowly loosed his grip on Thes's waist and touched his own neck as if it was stiff. He took a glance at Thes again.
"Ahem..." He stared at Thes, his mind was filled with a lot of bubbling emotions. Silence. It was awkward between them. They both slowly looked away, not sure how to react, Thes peeked at Elam. That man still looked at him, it was long that his mind went blank again.
This man-Is he staring???
Thes then turned to Elam and "My Lord, do you have something to discuss with me?" he asked. He tilted his head and Elam smirked.
"Nope. He-he~ I just wanna check on you." He scanned Thes and he smiled slowly. I guess I'll let you go now. "Looks like you're fine. I'll leave you alone now." Elam chuckled and he opened the door, Thes watched him leaving.
Suspicious. This man. Indeed strange.
Elam looked him as if he have a lot to do, he looked at him with desire but not a malicious intention. Something Thes could not comprehend yet but he knew their way will somehow intertwined with each other. Sooner or later.
Why does he go out his way to check on me? Ugh...
"Ha. Maybe it's too early..." Thes cover his face with his hand and his left eyes looked at the door. "To find out what's he." Thes scoffed. He was relieved nothing happened, at least that was what he thought for now.
