The moment her fingers grazed his cheek, Long Cheng also felt the spark that reached to his being, touching even his own soul.

His yellow eyes brightening further as his beast awakens stirring inside him, so impatient, it cannot deny the instinct that wants to possess.

He can hear her breathing, the steady beating of her heart is music to his ears. His beast delighted with the fact she is alive and very near him.

If not with the ropes bounding him, Long Cheng would already have pounced at her, and the vision of her beneath him awakens his savage desire.

Her scent is new to him, as she smells like ash, like a newly burnt paper but beneath it, is sweetness that he does not know where to compare.

With a slender frame and small frame, almost vulnerable appearance makes him want to protect her. Long Cheng is also delighted that she looks perfectly fit for him.

Long Cheng is a large man, and with his savage side, it is understandable if he will scare her. Gladly, that seems to be not the case.

In fact, if he could not experience being bounded by her, he would always believe that she is harmless.

Does he mind being dominated by her? Definitely not, as it turns him on, almost sending him on the edge of molten desire.

If not with the gag ball, she can probably see him with a silly smile as he stared at her. She is gently unfastening the strap of the ball gag and every tiny movement coming from her, he does not want to miss.

All he can feel at that moment is her presence. As long as she is here, nothing else matters.

Then he noticed a colorful tattoo from within her hanging shirt. The tattoo is in her left hip, his throat running dry as he cannot help it but stare at her red panties, the slit of her fold is very obvious.

Long Cheng mouth watered as he starts imagining how she looks without the panties or the hanging shirt. His body is feeling the heat and reacting to her closeness and his fantasies.

He continued to bore his gaze at her crotch before he forcefully drags his gaze to trace her colorful tattoo that passes her navel and ended below her neck.

The design looks intricate, seems patented from ancient runes he somehow does not have an idea where he has seen one before.

Long Cheng, suppress the furious growl that wants to kill the one who made the tattoos. Jealousy building up while thinking of the process of how a tattoo is made. He wants the blood of the tattoo maker!

'Later. There is still a chance later.' He appeased himself.

He calmed himself by breathing in and out of his nose. The woman is surely taking her time when removing the ball gag.

She probably is still cautiously observing him and Long Cheng does not mind since she is near him. He prefers thought if she used her lips to remove the straps.

Now he understands why regardless of how upset he is for being tied up, his beast does not crave for her blood. More like, it's feeling challenged.

That is normal, cause he is a hunter, with the animalistic lust for dominance. He is the one that conquers not the other way around.

Add to the fact that the beast vessel is part of the pureblood royal family of dragons. It will be questionable if he will not be on a berserk mode after being bound. There's only one exception.

Long Cheng can feel the thread of curious excitement on his blood. Why bound him? Does she not know that he is very much willing to cooperate? Is this a game he is not aware of?

"No biting." He heard her speak, though indifferent, Long Cheng likes it very much. He obediently nodded still staring at her intently. Then she finally removes the ball gag before stepping away from him. Supposed to be not so far, just enough distance to make sure that his bite will not reach her, in case.

His saliva is flowing to the side of his mouth, but Long Cheng does not care, all he feels that time is the disappointment because she is so far away.

Why not? After all, they are meant to be together, forever.
