Seize Her by the Blade

[Please add my upcoming novel about pseudo-bone kinship and growing up together, Difficult to Quell Dark Desire, to your collection] Chen Ze had a problem. He'd acted on impulse and lost his mind for a moment. His longtime boyfriend had cheated on him. After they broke up, Chen Ze met He Yunxi and slept with him. He Yunxi was an old acquaintance who'd grown up in the same alley as Chen Ze, his ex's most despised archenemy, and his uncle by name only. He was a bona fide mad dog, the kind that bit everyone he met. Chen Ze moved back to Peace Alley, and He Yunxi followed right behind him, settling in the building diagonally across the street. Their ambiguous entanglement was able to continue. They had both thought they were simply using each other, until the relationship started to veer off course and change into something else. Chen Ze gradually realized that something was off about the other man. It seemed that this man had a possessive streak toward him that crossed every boundary, near-obsessive and pathological. And it seemed He Yunxi had also schemed to make Chen Ze's ex cheat... When the ex came to ask for reconciliation, Chen Ze pretended to agree. That night, He Yunxi tied him up tight and pinned him beneath him, biting down hard as he threatened: "Don't think you can pull up your pants and pretend nothing happened. I was a virgin when I got with you. If you had me, then you have to take responsibility. We've been doing this for so long and you still haven't given me a title. You think you can dump me? In your dreams!" "The latecomer takes the lead, fighting and grabbing for what he wants."
