Chapter 123: Beg, if you must

Yexue eyes fell to Ru Yi’s lips. "What did you just say?"

Ru Yi wrapped her hand around Yexue’s neck and pulled her close. "How about you shut up and kiss me."

Yexue swallowed hard. She’d never seen Ru Yi this assertive, and it made something warm and slippery twirl in her lower stomach.

A smile touched the corner of her mouth. "Say please..."

"Plea—"

Yexue smashed her lips against Ru Yi, swallowing the rest of her words. She curled her grasping fingers around Ru Yi’s hip and pulled her closer until no space remained between them.

"Oh, Ru Yi..." Yexue deepened the kiss, drinking from her lips like she was thirsty and Ru Yi was her only source of water. "You taste so divine."

"I like the way you say my name," Ru Yi muttered, tilting her neck as Yexue devoured her neck. It was that hungry growl that followed shortly, like Yexue would embed herself inside of Ru Yi’s skin if she could.

Yexue pulled away for a second, watching the darkening skin along Ru Yi’s collarbone where she bit her.

"Show me where he touched you?" Yexue asked, a sharp ache passing through her. Guilt. Anger. A helpless fury that had nowhere to go. Her eyes were still glazed over with desire, but the murderous tone in her voice was unmistakable.

Ru Yi parted her lips, looking at Yexue as she pushed down the neckline of her robe until her entire chest was bare.

She saw Yexue eyes widen lightly, need burning through her like a wide fire.

"Here..." Ru Yi said in a teasing voice before putting her palm over one breast. "He touched me here..."

Yexue gulped, her eyes tracing every moment.

Ru Yi gave her breast a gentle squeeze, before going to the other breast. She watched the hard pop of Yexue’s throat with a satisfied grin.

This time she didn’t palm the tender flesh. Instead, she circled her fingers around the already hardened nipple and pinched as hard as she could.

A deep moan slipped past her lips but she didn’t stop. She made sure she held Yexue’s gaze before squeezing again.

"Ru Yi..." Yexue could feel her heart beat faster than it had ever done. She’d been with many women in the past, but none had ever driven her to the brink of maddening desire like this.

"Say my name again..." Ru Yi laid down slowly, simultaneously pushing her robe down her hips. She was baring herself, imperfection and all.

"Ru Yi...Ru Yi..." Yexue whispered over and over again, shifting until she positioned her knees on either side of Ru Yi’s hips.

Ru Yi found her toes curling already, it felt like Yexue was already touching the deepest parts of her when she said her name.

Urging her towards the peak of pleasure when all she’d done was say her name. Two words... simple, yet very damning on Yexue’s lips.

Yexue looked like a predator ready to devour their prey when she watched Ru Yi’s eyes slip close. "Are you sure?" she asked softly, her head dipping closer to Ru Yi’s chest.

A single nod from Ru Yi was all it took for Yexue’s restraint to snap. She grabbed Ru Yi’s hand that was still covering her breast and pushed it past her lips.

Ru Yi’s eys snapped open when her fingers met Yexue’s warm tongue.

A mischievous look was on Yexue’s face when she sucked on Ru Yi’s slender fingers. She swirled her tongue around it before pulling it out with a pop sound.

Then she reached down and pulled off the rest of Ru Yi’s clothing, leaving her with nothing but the marks her teeth left scattered all over.

"Touch yourself," Yexue ordered, already pushing Ru Yi’s wet fingers down her stomach.

"But..." For the first time Ru Yi stuttered. "I’ve never done it before."

Yexue smirked. "There is always a first time." She guided Ru Yi’s fingers down the slope of her stomach and down her folds.

Yexue leaned into Ru Yi’s ear. "Now be a good girl and follow my lead."

All Ru Yi managed was a little nod before Yexue pushed her finger into her. She whimpered when she felt how warm and wet she was on the inside.

She’d never touched herself down there, it was all new and foreign. But soon enough Yexue started moving her hand, and she felt her inside clench around it—all hot and needy.

Still...it wasn’t enough.

"Yexue..."

The person in question raised a teasing brow. "What?"

"I need..." Ru Yi gasped when Yexue pushed in another finger.

"You need what?" Yexue prompted, watching Ru Yi’s eyes flutter in desperation. The need to find release had her raising her hips.

"I need..." Ru Yi bit down on her bottom lip. This was embarrassing without the alcohol, begging for another’s touch like her life depended on it.

Scratch that. Her life really did depend on Yexue.

Yexue bent down and bit the tender flesh on her chest. "Use your words Ru Yi..." she drawled. "I won’t know what you want if you don’t open your mouth and tell me."

"I need you!" Ru Yi finally blurted out. She turned her head away, her cheeks heating up. "I need you, Yexue. Is that what you want to hear?"

Yexue turned Ru Yi’s face back. "Yes." Then she pulled out Ru Yi’s fingers. "You should never feel embarrassed to need someone."

She kissed the tip of Ru Yi’s nose. "How did touching yourself make you feel?" she asked, all the teasing gone from her voice.

Ru Yi’s eyes darted around the tent, looking everywhere but at Yexue. "It was good but I feel better when you do it."

Yexue smiled. "In other words, you need me more than you need yourself," she whispered in a hoarse voice.

Ru Yi’s lips drew together. "That was not what I meant."

Yexue nodded in understanding before trying to get up.

Ru Yi immediately grabbed her arm. "Where do you think you’re going?" Her voice trembled with panic. "Is that it? Are we done?"

Yexue tilted her head to the side, before letting her heated gaze roam down Ru Yi’s body. "Aren’t we?"

Ru Yi shook her head frantically.

"I mean, you said you don’t really need me. That was what I understood from your response." There was a slight bite in Yexue’s words.

Ru Yi still wasn’t following, her thoughts were beyond clouded. "I said I need you—" she trailed off. "Please, let’s finish what we started."

Yexue smirked. "I don’t know, love. How about you go down on all fours and beg for it?"
