A long time ago, our kingdom and the neighboring one were enemies. To make peace, they signed a treaty where the first alpha of one kingdom would marry the first omega of the other. Now, because of that, when I turn 20, I'll have to live with an alpha for a year and decide if we want to stay bonded or not. And guess who it is? Joong-grumpy, bossy Joong. How am I supposed to survive that?

Dunk Natachai, a determined and idealistic young barrister, dreams of changing society and believes in equality for all. One day, he encounters Joong Archen, a spirited but vulnerable boy caught in an unfair and harmful tradition. To protect Joong from a cruel fate, Dunk makes the bold decision to marry him - not out of romance, but to give him safety and the chance for a future. Dunk encourages Joong to study, think independently, and follow his dreams. Joong, though playful and sometimes stubborn, starts respecting Dunk's guidance. Over the years, Joong transforms into a confident, sharp-minded young man, and even studies law alongside Dunk. Through battles against injustice, they face family pressures, societal gossip, and personal doubts - but their partnership grows stronger. What started as a bond of protection turns into deep trust, unshakable friendship, and eventually, heartfelt love. Together, they stand in court and in life, fighting for what's right.

TITLE: Mine, Professor GENRE: Dark Romance • Mafia • Forbidden Love • Possessive Love • University • Secret Identity SETTING: Bangkok, Thailand TROPE: Mafia King × Professor Student × Professor Obsession × Forbidden Love STORY SUMMARY: At only twenty years old, Joong Archen rules one of the most feared mafia empires in Bangkok. No one has ever seen the true face of the man controlling the city's underground world. To the public, he is nothing more than a rumor... a shadow whispered about in fear. Cold, calculating, and ruthless, Joong never allows emotions to control him. Until the day he sees Professor Dunk Natachai. Dunk is calm, intelligent, and respected by everyone at the university. At twenty-six, he is already a well-known professor and comes from a powerful family. His life is perfectly arranged - including an engagement his family has already decided for him. Joong hates that. Without hesitation, the mafia king enrolls in the same university under a false identity, hiding among ordinary students while secretly watching the man who unknowingly became his obsession. To Dunk, Joong is just another quiet student. To Joong... Dunk already belongs to him. And when someone dares to get too close to the professor... They disappear. Because the most dangerous man in Bangkok has decided only one thing: Professor Dunk Natachai is his.

Dunk's job description didn't include being his CEO's therapist, life coach or impromptu date. But for the infuriatingly charming Joong, Dunk is the solution to every problem. Now, Dunk's all-hate relationship with his job is threatened by one bigger problem: catching real feelings for the man who can't function without him. Or Dunk's job is to be his CEO's assistant. His real duty is to be his boss's babysitter. He complains every day, but he might be falling for the one person who drives him crazy.

Dunk believed mates were meant to protect each other. Until the day his destined alpha rejected him in front of everyone. Heartbroken and humiliated, Dunk decides to live without love. But the moment Dunk starts healing, the alpha returns-jealous, desperate, and ready to claim what he threw away.

Joong has always despised Dunk. To the world, Dunk is his stepfather - the man who "stole" his mother's love. But behind closed doors, Joong knows there's no real marriage, just a carefully guarded lie that no one can know. His resentment grows each day, twisting into something darker. He should hate Dunk... yet he can't stop watching him. Can't stop craving his attention. And when jealousy blooms - even against his own mother - Joong realizes he doesn't just hate Dunk. He wants him. Entirely. A forbidden obsession turns into a love story that neither of them expected.

Joong Archen, 19, Alpha, university student, ***, straight. Joong has always tried to be what his parents expected him to be. The perfect son. Right from birth Joong was put on a pedestal. He was the first son after two daughters. His parents finally had the son they wanted, except they didn't. He always kept his true self hidden; he never let the world know what he really wanted to do and what he desired, to protect himself, and to protect the image his parents worked so hard to build. No one really knew Joong, he didn't either, but that's the way it has to be. Until... Dunk Natachai, 19, Alpha, *****, university student, gay. Dunk was raised in a family of Alphas, so of course it was natural when they assumed he was one too. He never corrected them. He was convinced he was one too, until his first heat. It was already a stressful situation not being able to control himself but it only amplified when it set in that he was different. He wasn't what his family expected of him. He could never tell them. So he suppressed himself. He swore to himself he'd never tell another soul. Until... Two boys with their secrets. One moment changing everything. A secret they'll never tell. Until.

A story about unrequited love - the shapes it takes, the ways it changes us and the exhilarating and often heartbreaking ride it takes us on. It is the journey of three characters, Joong, Dunk and Phuwin, as their lives intertwine and they navigate life, love and heartbreak.

Joong is a hot, emotionally dead celebrity with so many scandals, he has a dedicated PR team just for his dick. Like, actual employees paid to do damage control when he hooks up, gets papped, or sends the wrong emoji. They don't fix his public image-they fix his private one. Dunk is a sex-positive, chaotic civilian who hooks up with Joong one night. He thinks it's a fling. But when a video of their hookup accidentally leaks (thanks to a traitorous smart speaker), he goes viral. Not for sex tape scandal-but because the nation starts shipping them. Hard. Joong's PR team shows up with a contract: "We'll protect you from the press. In exchange, you'll pretend to be his committed, well-behaved boyfriend... and stop making those TikToks calling his moans 'weak.'" Dunk agrees. Because duh. But then feelings happen. Then the sex gets better. Then Joong starts to smile. And that's when the real danger begins.

Joong is the new transferee: smart, sporty, chaotic, and the type of guy who can ace exams, score in basketball, and still party with friends. Dunk is the golden boy: disciplined, smart, admired, and a campus photographer who captures moments instead of being in them. When Joong arrives, Dunk gets assigned to tour him around campus. From that moment, Dunk's quiet routine turns upside down-because Joong teases, annoys, and steals attention wherever he goes. Things get even messier when Dunk is asked to cover the school's basketball game-where Joong is the star player. Behind the camera, Dunk swears he's just "doing his job," but every shot he takes of Joong feels different. Too different. From rivals in academics to accidental stolen glances through the camera lens, Dunk and Joong's story is full of teasing, jealousy, denial, and the slow realization that maybe... rivalry isn't the only thing between them.
