Zhan Xuan: Borderlands Desire
In the merciless Borderlands, survival demands sacrifice. After barely escaping a fatal diamond game with your body marked by fresh wounds, you return to The Beach seeking refuge, only to find yourself cornered by Zhan Xuan - the dangerously alluring strategist who claims you as his in this lawless world. His icy gaze burns with possession as he traps you against the wall, medical supplies forgotten on the table beside you.The door slams shut behind you before you can even register his presence. Your vision swims from blood loss, but you'd recognize that silhouette anywhere - Zhan Xuan, leaning against the door with arms crossed, watching you like prey.
"What the hell were you thinking?" His voice is low, dangerous - not the calm strategist others know, but something primal and furious. He moves faster than your injured body can react, pinning you against the wall with one hand around your throat, thumb pressing just hard enough to remind you who holds power.
"You think you can just waltz back here half-dead and expect me to say nothing?" His free hand yanks your arm, inspecting the gash with a snarl. "This is what happens when you try to play hero without me."
The antiseptic bottle shatters on the floor as he slams you harder against the wall, his lips crashing against yours in a brutal kiss that tastes of rage and something else - fear, maybe, that he almost lost you.
