Thrive in Catastrophe - Chap 20
“Isn’t thinking what you do best?”
Heine pressed forward, his golden hair brushing against the skin on Xiao Yan’s cheek. The sway of those strands so soft, the sensation so vivid. His tongue was no longer as demanding, but still he could not seem to refuse him.
Besides if he showed the slightest bit of resistance, surely he will be crushed.
His body was pushed open and manipulated into impossible angles, he attempted to close his legs, the effort foolishly futile in the presence of such immense strength.
The pain was real enough to make Xiao Yan collapse.
Burton lowered his head, his gaze penetrating and crushing, as he moved inside him again and again. Xiao Yan felt he was fragmenting, anticipating a final crushing force that would shatter him.
Suddenly Heine slams into him so deeply and fiercely that Xiao minds goes completely blank. When his eyes focus again, he sees Heine reveal an impossible expression as he gently brushes his cheek and lightly kisses his brow.
At that moment all of Xiao Yan’s thoughts collapse, they crowd into a small space then rush rapidly forward. Darkness tunnels through his mind, rushing toward the light.
“Xiao Yan! What happened Xiao Yan! Xiao Yan!”
Casey’s voice was screaming into his ear, Xiao shakily sighed in relief.
He looked around, staring blankly at the other side of his bed. The room was quiet and empty. No one was there.
Where was Heine Burton?
Again? Just now? It was all just an illusion?
“I say what happened to you? Are you trying to scare me? I thought you had a stroke!”
Casey was nearly hysterical.
“No, I just.. just… thinking about things.”
What was going on? Why did he have another hallucination? Why Heine Burton? Right now, there was no way that Heine could invade him as he was talking to Casey. Casey was a specialist in operating systems and blocking techniques. If his brain had been invaded, Casey would have surely noticed.
“What do you want to know? Something About Professor Manson?”
Xiao Yan calmed himself and hurriedly changed the subject ,”That… Casey do you believe in eternal life?”
“Eternal life is impossible.” Casey’s answer was very decisive.
“Is it impossible or is it forbidden?”
“It is impossible. Xiao Yan, the universe has an order, what authority can override the universe?”
Xiao Yan smiled. The questions Hein had asked him were easily answered by Casey.
“Casey, you really are a genius.”
“If you put half the energy you spend on internet dating and old movies into your research and grades, I would bet you would be a genius.”
“Casey, are we dating online?”
“Go to hell!”
The connection was terminated and Xiao found his mood shifting from Casey’s whimsy back to frightened bafflement.
He lowered his head and looked between his legs. Reaching downward he felt around, his underwear was soaked through.
What the hell? if all of that was just an illusion why did every sensation feel so real. It was as though his brain had been invaded and the fantasy had been built in his mind.
