shadow of love

chapter 1 (⁠•⁠‿⁠•⁠)

The atmosphere in the conference room was thick with tension, a palpable energy that seemed to vibrate off the walls. Boss sat at the head of the table, his jaw clenched and eyes darkened with frustration. The investors had just presented their proposal for a collaboration, but their ideas felt more like chains than opportunities. He could feel his temper rising as they continued to drone on about potential profits and market shares, oblivious to his growing agitation.

"Let's cut this short," Boss finally interrupted, his voice low and commanding. "This isn't what we discussed. I'm not interested."

The room fell silent, the investors exchanging confused glances. Before anyone could respond, Boss stood abruptly, his chair scraping harshly against the floor. "I'm done here," he declared, storming out of the meeting room with a force that left everyone stunned.

Noeul, his assistant, had been sitting quietly in the back, taking notes and trying to keep the peace. As Boss's footsteps echoed down the hallway, he quickly followed him, concern etched on his face. He knew Boss well enough to recognize when he was on the verge of a meltdown.

When Noeul entered Boss's office, he found him pacing like a caged animal, his frustration palpable. "What's wrong with you?" Boss snapped, his voice sharp as he turned to face Noeul.

"Just take a breath, okay?" Noeul replied softly, stepping closer. "Let's talk about it."

But Boss wasn't in the mood for talking. In a sudden burst of anger and desperation, he grabbed Noeul by the collar and pulled him close, crashing their lips together. The kiss was fierce and demanding, igniting a fire that had been simmering beneath the surface for far too long. Noeul melted into the kiss, feeling the heat radiating from Boss as he pushed him against the wall.

Boss's lips traveled from Noeul's mouth to his neck, leaving soft marks that sent shivers down Noeul's spine. The scent of vanilla enveloped Noeul, intoxicating Boss further. He inhaled deeply, losing himself in the moment. Noeul could taste the rich, dark chocolate scent that clung to Boss-a mixture of desire and urgency that made his heart race.

As they surrendered to their passion, the world outside faded away. They made love right there in the office, lost in each other's warmth and affection, forgetting about the frustrations of the day. When it was over, Boss kissed Noeul's forehead tenderly and pulled him close, wrapping his arms around him as they both caught their breath.

In that moment of intimacy, noeul's mind drifted back to how they had first met-five years ago in college.

Flashback: Five Years Before

Noeul had been just another student in a sea of faces at university, but there was one person who stood out above all-the enigmatic figure known simply as Boss. He had watched him from afar during sports club practices, captivated by his athleticism and charm. It was during one of those moments that he confided in his {BESTFRIEND PEAT} [strawberry scented omega]

"Peat," Noeul said one afternoon, his cheeks flushed with embarrassment as they sat in their favorite café. "I think I have a crush on him."

Peat raised an eyebrow, ever the protective friend. "You mean Boss? The one from that rich family? You really think you have a chance?"

Noeul sighed, knowing Peat was right but unable to shake his feelings. "I know it sounds silly... but I can't help it."

Peat leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms with a knowing smile. "Alright then, let's do some research." They spent hours scrolling through Boss's social media accounts and piecing together bits of information about him-his background, his interests, and the people he surrounded himself with.

"You know," Peat said teasingly as they browsed through photos of Boss at various events, "he probably wouldn't even notice you if you walked past him on the street."

"Shut up," Noeul replied playfully, though deep down he felt a pang of insecurity.

"Seriously though," Peat continued, his tone shifting to something more serious. "Just promise me you won't get hurt. He's out of your league."

But Noeul couldn't shake his feelings. There was something about Boss that drew him in-a magnetism that was impossible to resist.

Back to the Present

As they cuddled together on the office couch after their passionate encounter, Noeul felt a wave of gratitude wash over him. The path from that innocent crush to this intense connection had been fraught with challenges and uncertainties.

Boss looked down at Noeul, brushing a strand of hair from his forehead. "I don't want to think about business right now," he murmured softly.

"Neither do I," Noeul replied with a smile. "Let's just enjoy this moment."

And so they did-wrapped in each other's arms, they shared whispered secrets and gentle kisses, savoring the sweetness of their love amidst the chaos of their lives.
Do you remember our first meet in office?" Boss asked softly, breaking the comfortable silence.

Noeul chuckled lightly, his fingers tracing patterns on Boss's chest. "How could I forget? You were so full of yourself."

"Maybe a little," Boss admitted with a grin. "But I was just trying to get your attention."

Noeul raised an eyebrow playfully. "Well, you certainly did that."

They shared a laugh, the tension from earlier completely dissipated. In that moment, it felt as if all the misunderstandings and barriers had finally been dismantled. They were no longer just boss and employee or college rivals; they were two souls who had found solace in each other. Noeul said But I don't like when you force kiss on me but still it felt good "noeul kissed boss on his forehead "
