Obsessive Pleasure - Chapter 10
Chen Yang rested one hand on the steering wheel and lightly rubbed his thin lips with a bent knuckle. “Elaine, my clothes are still with you.”
In the passenger seat, Liang Yun felt as though her mind had just endured an earthquake. The face long buried in her memory slowly emerged, overlapping and finally merging with the man in front of her.
That night in Vegas, she had thought the memory was exaggerated and distorted due to the double effect of alcohol and drugs.
Under Chen Yang’s second round of “enlightenment,” for the first time, from the position of being controlled and disciplined, she found immense pleasure beyond the pain.
She remembered him entering her from behind, each thrust striking her swollen, red buttocks. It was painful and blissful all at once.
Chen Yang had removed the tie covering Liang Yun’s eyes, but she had kept them closed, accepting his demands, or perhaps, his rewards. She was afraid the world before her was a mere fantasy that would vanish if she opened her eyes.
Chen Yang’s movements were powerful but unhurried, like a beast of prey with its quarry pinned beneath it, savoring the pleasure of conquest by observing and consuming her.
Liang Yun willingly submitted to his dominance. Listening to Chen Yang’s satisfied, low moans, both her physical and psychological pleasure surged like a tidal wave.
She fell into a deep, sound sleep she hadn’t experienced before.
When she woke up the next morning, her clothes had been ruined by the night’s activity. She was covered by a blanket and his suit jacket, which had a label that read “Chase.”
Her schoolmate called, asking if she wanted to join them for breakfast, and explained that Chase had an emergency and had left early, asking her and her husband to look after Liang Yun, who was still fast asleep in the private room.
The entire affair now felt like a dream.
Soon after, Liang Yun returned home. For various reasons, she never sought out the local community. Later, her relationship with her boyfriend ended without resolution, and then she became overly dependent on the drug Cipramil.
It seemed like fate’s design that this road was quietly pointing her back toward Chen Yang.
“You… you are Chase?” Liang Yun’s voice was exploratory, yet laced with expectation.
“That time in Vegas, you liked it, didn’t you?” Chen Yang slightly curved the corners of his eyes, but his gaze held a scrutinizing light.
“So, you brought me here today…” Liang Yun turned her head to look out the window. “Is this a community meeting?”
“Not exactly. It’s just a dinner gathering for enthusiasts, where everyone brings potential newcomers they’re interested in. You probably heard of it abroad; it’s called a Munch. The community here is just starting to organize them. It’s a public setting, making it safer for newcomers. People just chat and share experiences, so no actual activities take place.” Chen Yang explained simply.
“If I go with you, then that means we…” Liang Yun looked at Chen Yang.
“No. I don’t take on ‘Moons’ right now.” Chen Yang interrupted, seemingly knowing what she was thinking. “But I can introduce you to some other Stars. They are trusted friends, so you’d be in safe hands.”
“Oh, really? Should I thank you for your thoughtfulness?!” Liang Yun suddenly felt stung and laughed coldly. “I don’t need your introductions! I’m not interested in your friends!”
She pushed the car door open, stepped out, and just as she was about to slam it shut, she turned back and said, “If you’re a man, be straightforward when you want to reject someone. Stop stringing my friend along! Also, I threw away your clothes. How much do I owe you? I’ll pay you back!”
With that, she slammed the car door shut and walked away without looking back.
Liang Yun didn’t understand why she was so angry. Chen Yang was only trying to introduce her to others who shared her unique interests.
But she hated that he treated her like a toy, casually ready to be handed off to someone else without a second thought.
Honestly, though, Liang Yun knew she had no right to demand special treatment from Chen Yang. Their encounter was nothing more than a mutually consenting game, each taking what they needed, owing nothing to the other.
Before returning home, Liang Yun had indeed asked her schoolmate about Chase. Her schoolmate had said he was a well-known Dom in the community, but he rarely took on subs and seldom participated in public scenes. He was often approached for advice and techniques, serving more as a mentor figure in the community.
Her experience with him that night should have been considered extremely lucky.
Lucky?! Bullshit!
Now, an inexplicable rage was burning in Liang Yun’s heart. She couldn’t pinpoint whether it was because Chen Yang wouldn’t take her on as a sub or because he planned to introduce her to another Dom.
All she wanted was to swing her purse at his face.
Big, bad wolf!
Shameless bastard!
Male chauvinist pig!
Trash Chen!
Liang Yun hadn’t cursed this fiercely even when she broke up with her ex-boyfriend. But now, she felt like a ball of fire was lodged in her chest, threatening to explode.
Liang Yun stormed to the subway station. It was downtown, and the weekend crowds were dominated by sightseers. Every train that arrived was a scene of “A Huge Wave of Zombies is Approaching.”
Liang Yun was squeezed onto a train car by the surging masses. Crushed into a human pancake between bodies and sweat, she mentally cursed Chen Yang, the culprit, another hundred times.
