As soon as Jing Yuan's mouth frees from him, Solomon's hand raises to gently press against Jing Yuan's lips, to give them a slight amount of distance as he backs off his lap just slightly. He's a little breathier now, though what tinge of color he may lack for now is made up for by the heat now heavy in his eyes.]
Not even a dialogue for me, General? What a poor warning.
[It's not serious, of course. But he does let the silence sit thick, a slow trace of his fingertips over those warm, warm lips.]
...
I'm sorry. Don't misunderstand. I don't mean to scare you off from this. Perhaps indulgence could do us some good... should we both desire it.
[And yet the quiet sits. A moment of letting the simmer remain a simmer, keeping it from boiling over too far, too fast.]
I don't ask for your heart now, Jing Yuan, when I'm not ready to give you mine. I don't ask for your feelings or desires, beyond what you wish to share. I don't wish you to give yourself completely in this moment that is difficult for you. So don't bring any more of yourself than you feel you must.
But if you find your soul so eager... and the night feels too cold...
[His fingers drag against that bottom lip. Just barely, just enough pressure to tease.]
...If this is something you cannot ignore, then find me in the Nectar District. Later. Bar Bennett.
[His expression tilts down just slightly. Lidded eyes and smile just so.]
If the carnal calls you so serenely... then you may find me, and put your hands on me, and allow your heart to be left with mine by the wayside for a night.
[No commitments. No admittance of something as strong as love required. Only curiosity and connection and a desire to be beside, to belong, to understand.
A lonely night, for lonely souls, in privacy. Not here.]
