The Cold Top Became □□ After Being Forced

The bottom is the campus beauty of the School of Plant Sciences. He's famous for his gentle personality, will take injured stray kittens to the hospital, and always looks at people with a tender expression. He's emotionally steady and almost never gets angry.

The top is a cool guy in the mathematics department who cultivates the Path of Unfeeling. He never joins the boys' dormitory's late-night chats about handsome men and beautiful women, has no worldly desires, and devotes all his energy to his studies. Being around him feels like standing next to an air conditioner.

One day, the bottom is eating at a restaurant with friends. After returning from the restroom midway through the meal, he gets so lost in thought that he accidentally sits at the wrong table.

He sits beside the top and eats a few bites of food with his chopsticks before realizing he's at the wrong table and has picked up the wrong chopsticks.

The bottom is so apologetic. He sincerely apologizes to the top, who cultivates the Path of Unfeeling. The top stares at him coldly for a few seconds, then leaves with a dark expression. On his way out, he accidentally bumps into the bottom. The bottom frowns and says it hurts, but the top ignores him.

The bottom's friends condemn the top's bad temper for him, cursing him for acting so arrogant.

The good-natured bottom doesn't hold it against him, of course. He says it's fine and that he was the one who made a mistake first, so it was only natural for the top to be upset.

That night, the top arrives at his rental apartment. The moment he walks in, the bottom stands on tiptoe and kisses him. The top's face stays blank. The bottom is so annoyed that he slaps him. The top glares at him fiercely, and the bottom calls him "hubby" in a gentle voice, then says in a pitiful tone that he really hurt him at lunchtime and wants to show him the injury from when he bumped into him.

The clothes come off. There's no injury, only layers upon layers of hickeys and finger marks left by the top every night, wild and frightening.

The bottom fell in love with the top at first sight when he started his freshman year. At first, he didn't plan to date him, until he discovered that the top's good friend was the culprit who had injured the leg of the bottom's neighbor, an older brother figure.

If the top hangs out with someone like that, then he can't be a good person either.

As luck would have it, the bottom gets hold of something the top wants kept secret, and so he forces the top to sleep with him every night.

The top isn't with the bottom willingly. He loathes him.

The bottom says he likes him, but the top doesn't believe it. The bottom never considers what he thinks, and in bed, he always leaves as soon as he's satisfied, never caring how close the top was to reaching the edge. The bottom may call him "hubby" in a sweet voice, but he uses the same gentle tone with a dog.

The bottom's face is too beautiful. Sometimes, when the top pins his waist and watches him gaze at him through unfocused eyes, the top will savagely think that he's not necessarily the only one benefiting from this improper relationship.

The top has always wanted to escape his disgusting relationship with the bottom.

But before he can find something to use against him, the bottom gets bored first and says it's over between them.

The top thinks he's happy, but a few days after they part, all the little details of the bottom grow clearer in his mind. One night, he even loses control and buries his face in the pajamas the bottom left at his place, trying to inhale as much of his scent as possible, like a stalker.

[One-on-one, both are each other's only partners, but there are many potential triggers, so don't read if you're sensitive to them.]
