69 - Together Again

"I'm sorry too," Ren said quietly. "I shouldn't have run away to sulk without telling you."

Fang stood up and pulled Ren into his arms. The powerful CEO Ren that the world feared and idolised felt strangely fragile and vulnerable in his arms right now.

"You did nothing wrong...after putting up with my unreasonable behaviour, you too were entitled to a tantrum," Fang said softly. "There's no need for you to apologise, my love."

Ren buried his face in Fang's neck. "You're not angry anymore?" he asked in a small voice.

Fang sighed and rubbed the older man's thin back again. "I was not really angry with you...I was terribly scared, though."

"I'm sorry," Ren said hoarsely.

Fang kissed him again. "Don't apologise," he said. He caressed Ren's cheek again. "You haven't been eating or sleeping properly, have you?" he asked.

Ren looked away.

"What? The great CEO Ren can't eat or sleep without his little Fang?" Fang teased lightly.
