His body swayed back and forth... back and forth.
Despite the constant swaying, there was no sense of unease. It was likely because Zero's movements, which were holding him, were steady and his steps were stable.
(It feels... good)
As he half-dreamily entrusted himself to Zero, his fading consciousness gradually returned. The hazy sensations became clearer, and he could understand the state of his own body.
The rising body temperature. The relentless rapid heartbeat. The sweat bursting out from the pores, trying to release the heat trapped in the body.
(Ah... it's because of my heat)
He is in heat.
Realising this, the places where he was in contact with Zero began to tingle with a faint electric current.
"...Ah"
Furrowing his brows at the weak electric sensation, Kazusa opened his eyes slightly and looked up at Zero. The first thing that caught his eye was the sweat glistening on Zero's neck. Zero's body, pressed against him, was also quite hot. Fever and sweating. The same as him.
(Is Zero... also in a rut?)
The answer to that question came immediately after Zero, who was carrying Kazusa in a bridal hold, stepped into the elevator and pressed a floor button.
"...Mmh..."
Without even waiting for the door to close, Zero's face descended upon him, stealing his lips with a kiss.
Taken by surprise, his lips parted, and a tongue was forcefully thrust inside. Flustered, his own tongue was caught and wrestled with, licked, and sucked. The tongue traced the inside of his upper palate, then scraped against his teeth, and finally sucked on the underside of his tongue.
"...Ah... Nh..."
(It feels good...)
Being so messily ravaged in the mouth felt incredibly pleasurable.
Intoxicated by the sweet violation, Kazusa found himself responding to the movements of Zero's tongue. They sucked on each other's lips hungrily, intertwined their tongues, and mixed their saliva into a wet mess. Squelching, sloppy sounds echoed in the cramped elevator, and the excess saliva dripped from the corners of their mouths.
"...Ah..."
When their lips parted, Kazusa instinctively pushed out his tongue to seek more contact, drawing it back into his mouth. Changing the angle, they kissed repeatedly, and the lack of oxygen made Kazusa's head spin. His vision blurred with tears.
The body temperature rose further, and the heartbeat was abnormally elevated. Zero's entire body also seemed to be burning.
In the confined space of the elevator, a concentrated, dense pheromone permeated the air, making Kazusa's head dizzy. His lower abdomen throbbed painfully, and his underwear was already uncomfortably taut.
"Ah... Ah..."
The breath was hot. The body was hot. The lower abdomen... was hot.
Unable to bear it, Kazusa clung tightly to Zero's neck. At that moment, there was a sound, and the elevator door opened. Zero strode out with long steps. Through his tear-blurred eyes, Kazusa saw the door to room 701 - Zero's room.
Click. Slam. Kazusa heard the sound of the door opening and closing through the haze in his mind. Even after entering the room, Zero continued to move with large strides.
Eventually, he was gently lowered onto a soft, springy surface. Lying on his back, Kazusa looked up at the unfamiliar ceiling. The evenly spaced downlights glowed orange. Turning his head left and right, he saw a black screen on the left and a window with blinds drawn on the right. He was lying on a king-size bed.
(This is... Zero's bedroom?)
As he pondered this, he heard a rustling sound at his feet. Pushing himself up on his elbows, Kazusa saw Zero, who was frustratedly unbuttoning his black shirt. The earlier sound must have been him dropping his coat on the floor. Unable to wait for all the buttons to be undone, Zero pulled the shirt over his head and carelessly tossed it aside.
The magnificent tanned physique that appeared before Kazusa took his breath away.
"...Ah…"
Not only was the solidly built collarbone, the two prominent shoulders, the muscular biceps resembling hills, the well-developed pectoral muscles, and the six-pack abs incredibly impressive, but that was not the only reason Kazusa was captivated.
There were symmetrical tribal tattoos etched across his firm, raised chest, shoulders, and upper arms. The black geometric patterns were characteristic of the so-called tribal tattoos, which originated as a way for warriors from foreign lands to display their social status and ferocity through their tribe's unique designs.
Back when he was a doctor, Kazusa had treated many patients with tattoos in the downtown area. The placement and designs varied from person to person. Some had an intimidating aura, while others gave an impression of frivolity. But Zero's tattoos were different - they had a sense of dignity and majesty that enhanced his wild allure.
Captivated by the tattoos that further accentuated Zero's rugged charm, Kazusa noticed Zero climbing onto the bed with a creak of the springs.
Catching Kazusa's gaze, Zero asked, "Does this interest you?"
"...Yes."
"It's the same as my mother's. I've heard it's an ancestral design," Zero explained.
Upon closer inspection, the design seemed to incorporate animal fangs and plant motifs interwoven with the geometric patterns.
The fact that it was an ancestral design meant Zero's mother must have also had a tattoo modelled after her own ancestors. It was this heritage passed down through generations that likely imbued the design with a sense of grandeur and nobility, unlike mere fashion or intimidation tattoos.
"It's... so beautiful," Kazusa breathed out in admiration. Not just of the tattoo, but of Zero's entire being.
A faint smile graced Zero's lips.
"Kazusa."
Not "Doctor," "you," or "Lemur," but his first name, causing Kazusa to tremble.
"Kazusa..."
Hearing his name again in Zero's heated voice, Kazusa's heart constricted with a bittersweet feeling.
In his thirty years of life, this was the first time he had experienced such emotions.
He loved this man.
Even on the rooftop, back when they had embraced and when Kazusa hadn't known Zero's name. To Zero, Kazusa was likely just a chance encounter, a spontaneous heat-driven partner. Zero could have easily ended it there, with no strings attached.
But he hadn't. He had reached out and helped Kazusa in his predicament.
For the past month, Kazusa had been relying on Zero's kindness, nestling in his embrace, and embarking on a new life.
It had been a short yet long month, filled with so many experiences. Now, Kazusa knew what kind of person Zero was, his painful past, and the future he envisioned.
Beneath the dazzling exterior, Zero was earnest, passionate, and delicate.
It was precisely because Zero was such a person that… ("...I love him.")
