PondPhuwin | Dark Romance | Slowburn | Arranged Marriage | Black Flag × Black Flag | Obsession | Angst | 18+*
In the glittering cage of Bangkok's elite, two heirs are forced into a marriage neither wants.
Pond Naravit Lertratkosum - cold, calculating, the untouchable heir to an empire built on ruthless deals. He doesn't do love. He does control.
Phuwin Tangsakyuen - sharp, unyielding, the quiet storm hiding behind perfect smiles. He doesn't beg. He breaks things that stand in his way.
Their families merge fortunes to crush rivals and silence whispers of scandal. A contract is signed. A wedding is staged. And the rules are simple:
- Keep up appearances.
- Don't touch unless cameras are watching.
- Never let it get personal.
But rules shatter when obsession creeps in.
Pond installs trackers "for security" and watches Phuwin's every move like a predator. Phuwin hacks the feeds and sends back proof he sees everything - including Pond's late-night secrets. Jealousy becomes a weapon: one brings home strangers to prove indifference, the other flirts in public just to watch the mask crack.
They sabotage each other in boardrooms and bedrooms. Fake threats. Stolen sketches. Hidden photos. Bloody "rescues" that feel too real. Every fight ends with hands too close, breaths too shared, and words that cut deeper than knives.
"I hate you," one whispers in the rain.
"Good," the other replies. "Hate me harder."
This isn't a love story.
It's a war where surrender feels like victory, and possession is the only mercy they allow.
Slow. Painful. Addictive.
They won't back down.
They'll burn each other first.
