Chapter 43

When Ai woke again, he found he was nuzzled in the warmth of many blankets, but Wang wasn't next to him. Blinking himself awake, he shifted to nuzzle further into the warmth of the blankets. His body felt oddly stiff as well as filled.

Not wanting to move, his thoughts flashed over the last 24 hours as his face reddened before he struggled to regulate his own embarrassment. How could he have told Wang to do such things to him?! He still wasn't sure how he felt about the other male.

What confused him more was his 'heat'. Sure his race wasn't too concerned of male or female, but that was different! He knew that males just didn't go into heat because of some light teasing. Rather it was something they slowly adjusted to when they willingly submitted to their male lovers.

His heat was more like a females, happening without warning ah! Maybe his body was flawed? It wasn't like he was able to ask any of his clan men. He was the only of his kind here, and the information passed to him had no answers!

While Ai was confused with his own actions and reactions to what had happened, Wang was off in his study having been forced to get up to do his 'Royal' duties. As he sat in his seat, he listened to Little Sho go over the many things he had left aside for him. The youth was clear on the things he needed to leave for Wang to handle.

After the morning began to slowly pass, Wang finally pushed his thoughts past the many issues before him before thinking back to the night before. His thoughts turned more pleasant as he smiled softly to himself. He himself didn't realize his Spiritual Energy had undergone a drastic change from the night before.

Little Sho had been fiddling with some documents before he felt the shift in the air. His gaze shifted to the other male before he coughed softly. "Congratulations, My lord, you've broken into Golden Level 3." He said with slight surprise.

Wang blinked before he stopped his thoughts, glancing to the other before finally feeling his own level. "Well...this is unexpected..." he said as if dazed. "I haven't really been cultivating since..." he began before waving his hand.

Little Sho sighed before rolling his eyes slightly. "I'm sure it's due to the knots in your heart being slowly undone. You no longer need to worry about your little lover not allowing you to enjoy his tofu..." he stated with slight ridicule.

Wang laughed at the others jesting. He knew that Sho was unhappy because he'd clearly told the other to ease his way with the other. It wasn't known how being with a Nine-tailed fox would affect Wang, his bloodline wasn't one they knew about!

The seeds of darkness that had sprouted in his heart from the few years Ai had been missing were different then any other normal practitioner. Even his father, who had helped Wang suppress the dark seeds, was still unsure of what they truly were.

"We'll figure it out slowly, no worries. Besides, I need to go see my wife ah! You forced me here so early, what if he's awake now?!" he stated as he finally pushed the odd thoughts from his head. Whatever the reason for his bloodline being on, he surely could guess. But it wasn't like he'd explain it to the other, he wasn't really from this world either. His own bloodline was slightly different as he'd been the original owner of this world, having created it.
