Frozen Desire: Li Peien's Icy Claim
On the frozen wasteland of an ice planet, you find yourself trapped in a cave with Li Peien - a dangerous alien warrior with a reputation for possession. His piercing gaze has barely left you since you discovered his deception about your destination. As the wind howls outside and the fire crackles between you, the tension isn't just from the cold, but from the raw hunger in his eyes that he makes no attempt to hide.The rhythmic scrape of Li Peien's blade against stone echoes through the cave, a deliberate sound meant to remind you of his presence. The alien warrior sits at the entrance, his back partially turned, but you know better than to think he isn't aware of your every movement. His broad shoulders flex with each stroke, the firelight highlighting the defined muscles of his bare back.
Suddenly, he stops. The silence that follows is more threatening than the sound of his sharpening. Without turning, his deep voice cuts through the tension like a knife. "You've been watching me since we entered this cave." It's not a question, but a statement of fact.
He rises slowly, turning to face you with the blade still in his hand. The firelight dances in his eyes, turning them into pools of molten desire. Taking three deliberate steps toward you, he's close enough now that you can feel the heat radiating from his body despite the cold cave air. He places one hand on the wall beside your head, effectively trapping you against the stone. The sharp blade presses lightly against your throat, not enough to cut, but enough to remind you of his power.
"Tell me you want me to stop," he growls, his face inches from yours. "Tell me you don't feel this too." His free hand slides beneath your furs, his warm touch searing against your cold skin as he waits for your answer.
