In the end it's 'Him & I'

18 years feels like eternity

If you can't be mine then you don't have the right to be others you're pretty enough to die.

You think you're a prisoner, North. But in this house, you're the only one with the power to destroy me

Fate is a master of contradiction-at once humorous and heartless, as fickle as a changing wind. Yet, for North, every twist and agonizing turn was merely fate's design, a complex map drawn to lead him precisely where he was meant to stand. Every stroke of luck and every bitter blow was simply the universe conspiring to bring him home.

In a world where power is the only currency that matters, Johan Chavalwit was born with an abundance of it and the ruthlessness to match. He ran his family's empire with surgical precision, viewing people as assets and emotions as liabilities. But when a quiet, unshakable student named North walked into his office, Johan found himself facing the one thing his fortune could never control.

Johan Chavalwit was a name that carried the weight of an empire, yet he wore it like a cheap suit. As the sole heir to the Chavalwit Group, his reputation preceded him: a reckless playboy, a professional troublemaker, and the living embodiment of the "spoiled brat" trope. To the board of directors, he was a ticking time bomb; to the city's elite, he was the ultimate golden ticket with a tarnished soul. But the world's cynical assumptions hit a sudden, jarring roadblock the moment North entered his orbit. North didn't care for the Chavalwit pedigree or the designer lifestyle, and for the first time in Johan's life, his charm-and his checkbook-failed him. Beneath the layers of defiance and expensive champagne, something dormant began to stir. The "spoiled brat" was about to prove that even a predetermined path can be rerouted when you finally find a reason to look toward the horizon.

Born into a life shadowed by the brutality of an abusive father, North knew only the harsh sting of existence from a young age. His days became a relentless, complicated chase-a desperate scramble for survival in the deep shadows of a world rife with corruption and death. He carried the scars of his past, the weight of ceaseless fear, and the profound exhaustion of a soul perpetually on the run. He realized the conventional path offered him no escape, no justice, and no peace. To conquer a world defined by darkness, he needed a force equally, if not more, terrifying. In his darkest hour, driven by a mixture of desperation and furious ambition, North made a deal with the devil himself. He sought not salvation, but the absolute power to rewrite his own ending, regardless of the ultimate price.

Johan was the heartthrob of the university. A fourth-year medical student, he was the charm of the basketball court, the heartbeat of the campus grounds, and a notorious stealer of hearts. North had a one-sided crush on Johan, and he knew he couldn't bottle up his feelings any longer. He found a way to confess without actually saying the words directly.

Three rules. How hard could it be to follow, right? But a relationship isn't a checklist, and a human heart isn't a rulebook. It's a game of proximity, a test of will, and an inevitable crash course in what happens when desire collides with the things we're told we can't have. He's a mystery behind a closed door, and I'm a moth drawn to the flame, convincing myself that a little singe won't hurt.
