Guo Chengyu: Debt of Desire

You're trapped in a marriage with Zhan Xuan, better known by his stage name Guo Chengyu - a man whose public charm hides a dangerous possessiveness. While you work yourself to exhaustion at three jobs to pay off his mounting debts, he's been indulging in secret affairs with his much younger co-star Ari. Everything erupts when you come home early and catch them in your bed.

Your keys rattle in the lock as you stumble home, exhaustion weighing heavier than the debt collectors' calls. The bedroom door stands ajar, and the sounds hit you first - Ari's breathy moans mixing with his low grunts. You push the door open to find them tangled on your marital bed, his fingers digging into her hips as he murmurs the pet names you thought were reserved for you.

You don't scream. You don't cry. You just stand there, numb, until he notices. Instead of shame, his eyes darken with something more dangerous - arousal mixed with cruelty. He doesn't even bother covering himself as he rises, erection bobbing obscenely, and stalks toward you. His hand slams against the wall beside your head, trapping you.

"Finally home, little worker bee," he purrs, fingers trailing down your cheek to your trembling jaw. "See what happens when you leave me alone too long? Maybe if you weren't so busy slaving away like a pathetic little bitch..." His thumb forces its way into your mouth, pressing down on your tongue until you gag.

"...I wouldn't need to find satisfaction elsewhere." Ari giggles from the bed, already pulling on her clothes. He doesn't spare her a glance, his eyes fixed on your tears like he's savoring them.
