Seductive Beauty - Chapter 77

Chapter 77

After seeing Gu Sijiu and Song Jinzhi off, Yi Wei went home with Wen Qiulan. Wen Qiulan had intended to drop Yi Wei off at her own place, but Yi Wei insisted on staying at hers. Wen Qiulan could never bear to refuse her, so she agreed. On the way back, Wen Qiulan noticed that Yi Wei had grown very quiet. During the dinner she had been perfectly normal, but now she seemed almost angry.

"Xiao Yi, what's wrong?" Wen Qiulan had never seen Yi Wei angry before, but now the woman sat with her head propped on her hand against the side of the car seat, staring silently out the window. An indescribable distance radiated from her entire being. "Lanlan, I just have something on my mind. I don't know if, in your heart, you truly think of me as your lover." After speaking, Yi Wei turned back to look at Wen Qiulan's startled face before lowering her head again.

Truthfully, Yi Wei herself couldn't quite separate what emotion had driven her to say those words. It was just that the thought had been pressing on her heart for some time, giving her a feeling that she had to let it out or she would burst. It had been nearly a month since she and Wen Qiulan had confirmed their relationship, and by any measure, Wen Qiulan was an exceedingly perfect lover. She was gentle and considerate, never did anything improper, and never lost her temper with her.

Anyone else would probably feel fortunate to have such a lover, yet Yi Wei felt that Wen Qiulan treated her with too much restraint. When you like someone, you feel desire for them. Yi Wei was far from someone who prioritized sex. She had had many bed partners, but proper romantic relationships numbered no more than three, and Wen Qiulan was the most special among them.

Over the past month, Yi Wei had stayed at Wen Qiulan's home many times. The two of them often kissed and held each other, sleeping together on the same pillow. Yi Wei felt an enormous longing for Wen Qiulan. Even a casual kiss would stir a restlessness in her that craved more. Yet when she looked at Wen Qiulan, the woman was as calm as still water. Even during the most intimate deep kisses, she would only blush slightly, then gaze at her with doting tenderness.

Yi Wei was even beginning to suspect that Wen Qiulan didn't truly like her at all. If she really liked her, why didn't she want her? Or was it that she, as an Omega, simply lacked appeal? Naturally, Yi Wei refused to admit either of those two possibilities. Taking a step back, then, could Lanlan be frigid? But she had touched her there, and there was definitely sensation. It wasn't as if she had no desire at all.

Yi Wei had thought that such things could be taken slowly, that someday Lanlan would be unable to resist her teasing and become intimate with her. But that notion had gradually crumbled today after seeing Gu Sijiu and Song Jinzhi. She liked Wen Qiulan so much. She wanted to hear her breathless, wanting gasps. She wanted to see her find pleasure because of her. She also wanted Wen Qiulan to satisfy her. This thought had broken through the soil and sprouted in Yi Wei's mind. Combined with several months of abstinence, it was no wonder she was in a foul mood.

After Yi Wei finished speaking, a long silence stretched inside the car. Wen Qiulan glanced sideways at Yi Wei but did not rush to explain. She waited until they had safely arrived home, then pulled Yi Wei down onto the sofa, ready to talk it through properly. In a relationship, lack of communication was often the most fatal crisis for a couple.

"Xiao Yi, why would you think that way?" Wen Qiulan sat beside Yi Wei and gently held her hand, a note of urgency in her voice. Yi Wei felt somewhat irritable. She knew she was being unreasonable, but she couldn't rein in that negative emotion. She attributed all of it to her incoming heat, which must be scrambling her thoughts.

"Lanlan, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that way. It's just... from you, I can't feel your passion for me. I'm an Omega, and you're my Alpha. Every time I smell your scent, I get excited and entranced. Being close to you makes me happy, but your feelings for me are too restrained. It gives me the illusion that you might not actually like me all that much."

Yi Wei spoke plainly. She admitted that demanding Wen Qiulan feel exactly the same way she did was asking too much. She had been the one to pursue Lanlan first, after all. Perhaps the other woman simply wasn't used to having a lover yet. Yi Wei was lost in her own wild thoughts on one side, unaware that Wen Qiulan had been watching her the entire time. The familiar gentleness in those eyes had receded, replaced by restrained ardor.

"Xiao Yi, if my attitude has made you think this way, I must apologize to you first. How exactly to like someone, what to do to make you happy: these are things I have been trying hard to figure out all along. It isn't that I don't like you, it's just that I don't know how to show so directly just how much I do. It isn't that I don't want to get close to you, it's that I feared moving too fast would make you uncomfortable. In my heart, you are my lover, my Omega."

Wen Qiulan rarely spoke her inner thoughts aloud. She preferred to do everything well, to arrange everything perfectly before presenting it to others.

Yi Wei didn't know that Wen Qiulan was composing a piece of music for her. Nor did she know how much Wen Qiulan treasured every night they held each other, how she would gaze intently at her sleeping face long after she drifted off.

Wen Qiulan had thought such small gestures were enough to satisfy her, but she had overlooked Yi Wei's feelings. She realized she had made a mistake that had made her lover lose confidence.

Yi Wei had never imagined Wen Qiulan would say something so possessive. After hearing it, she froze entirely, forgetting how to respond. She felt her heart racing. She had heard countless sweet words, far more ornate than Wen Qiulan's, beyond counting. Yet none had stirred her heart as strongly as these did.

"Lanlan, I... mm..." Yi Wei opened her mouth. She wanted to apologize to Wen Qiulan for doubting her lover barely a month into their relationship.

The realization left Yi Wei feeling somewhat embarrassed, even more tangled by how her emotional intelligence had apparently plummeted to negative territory. Her words of apology never made it out, blocked by Wen Qiulan's kiss.

This was not the first time Wen Qiulan had kissed her, but it was her most fervent one yet. The gentle and considerate Alpha cradled her head tenderly with one hand while the other stroked soothingly along her back. Their lips and tongues entwined together. A single kiss was all it took for Yi Wei's restless emotions to settle back to normal. Wen Qiulan really did know how to soothe her.

"Xiao Yi, I want to do everything I can to cherish you." Wen Qiulan was an introverted person by nature. Saying so much and then taking the initiative to kiss her had probably exhausted all her courage.

Seeing her blushing as she met her gaze, Yi Wei laughed and nestled into her arms the way she always did. Now that things had been spoken plainly, she certainly wasn't going to leave Wen Qiulan's embrace.

"Lanlan, I won't think of you that way anymore. Just chalk it up to being abstinent for so long that my brain stopped working properly. Actually, there is one more thing I want to talk to you about." Yi Wei felt the atmosphere was good, just the right moment to bring up that matter. Hearing this, Wen Qiulan murmured an acknowledgment, signaling for her to continue.

"Lanlan, we've known each other so long, and we've been together a while too. I know you'll think it's too fast, but Alphas and Omegas needing each other is an indisputable fact. My heat is coming soon, and I want to spend it with you. But I don't want our first time to happen because of my heat. I want to make love with you while I'm fully clear headed."

When Yi Wei reached the words "make love," she deliberately softened her voice. She bit Wen Qiulan's ear and whispered right into it, successfully turning her old school Alpha into a thoroughly ripe tomato. Wen Qiulan knew Xiao Yi had always wanted to be intimate with her. She did indeed think it was too fast, but what Xiao Yi had just said wasn't unreasonable either.

"Xiao Yi, I understand what you mean now. I... I can do it. You decide the time."

"Then let's make it now." Seeing Wen Qiulan agree, Yi Wei instantly became elated. She could barely restrain herself from stripping Wen Qiulan's clothes off right then and there and having a close encounter with Pink Baby.

"Xiao Yi, not tonight. There are still so many things to prepare. Can you hold on just a little longer? I want to get everything ready. I don't want to make you uncomfortable."

Wen Qiulan had never had any intimate experience with an Omega. She hadn't even watched films of that nature. Her understanding of matters between Alphas and Omegas in bed was limited solely to physiological structure and what was taught in coursework. Since she was going to be intimate with Yi Wei, Wen Qiulan wanted to do everything as perfectly as possible. The fact that Wen Qiulan needed to schedule going to bed made Yi Wei find her even more adorable. Truly worthy of being called old school.

And so, the two of them agreed to set the time for the following night. Tonight, they would obediently sleep and do nothing at all.

The next morning, seeing Yi Wei still asleep, Wen Qiulan went out to the largest supermarket near her home to purchase the necessary supplies for that kind of activity. The first priority was barriers. She didn't understand the brands and styles, much less what all those so called shapes and raised dots meant. The sideways glances from the sales assistant nearby only made Wen Qiulan feel deeply self conscious. She randomly picked several that looked the best and most expensive, then added a great many household items as a transparent cover before checking out all at once.

After buying everything, Wen Qiulan returned home. Yi Wei was already awake. Neither of them planned to go out, so they simply lazed around the house. Yi Wei lay on the bed watching amusing videos online, while Wen Qiulan sat seriously in the study, researching what an Alpha and Omega needed to do during their first time. She didn't watch any of those erotic films. She felt that although those films could teach quite a bit, much of it was exaggerated for visual effect. Learning from them might end up making Xiao Yi uncomfortable.

Thus, in an era when everyone else learned about sex through watching films, Wen Qiulan sat in front of her computer wearing glasses, carefully studying diagrams of human anatomy and physiological analysis texts. Whenever she had a question, she would open those educational science videos, follow along with the research to gain understanding, and then write down her reflections, recording them in her notes.

When evening finally arrived, having prepared for such a thing in advance made it far more awkward than if it had happened spontaneously in the heat of passion. Yi Wei didn't want to tease Wen Qiulan too much and suggested they bathe separately. After she finished her bath, she found Wen Qiulan already seated properly on the bed in her pajamas, looking earnest and obedient. By contrast, Yi Wei had merely wrapped herself in a bath towel.

"Is Lanlan nervous?" Seeing Wen Qiulan constantly taking deep breaths, Yi Wei couldn't help laughing. Without waiting for an answer, she directly straddled Wen Qiulan, one hand caressing her face while the other slid down below her abdomen, reaching straight between her legs and unerringly grasping that place which was already faintly beginning to stir awake.
