"Why do you care so much about me?" Joong snapped one night, irritation sharp in his voice. Dunk looked at him quietly, the weight of years pressing on his chest. "Because I love you, Joong. Not as a brother... but more." For a moment, silence stretched between them-before Joong's eyes hardened and his words fell like glass shattering: "Don't ever say that again." He thought he wanted Dunk to stop. But when Dunk finally pulled away, when the small acts of care and warmth vanished, Joong realized the silence hurt more than the truth ever could.

Can a cold groomsmen cheerfully photograph the groom who's been hired to make him believe in love?

Pond Narawit is twenty, loud, emotional, hopelessly passionate about dance, and far too young to understand marriage-or at least that's what everyone thinks. Phuwin is older, calmer, already worn down by adulthood and responsibility. After years of living for work, though once he had a wild teenage, he agrees to an arranged marriage that was supposed to be simple, practical, and emotionless. But nothing about Pond is simple. What begins as an awkward marriage between two strangers slowly turns into something neither of them expected: subway rides shared in sleepy silence, quiet dinners after exhausting days, late-night conversations, trembling first touches, and a love that grows not through grand confessions, but through care-through staying. While Pond chases his final dream on the dance stage, Phuwin finds himself pulled into the chaotic warmth of a boy who loves too loudly, cares too much, and slowly teaches him how to be loved without conditions. Yet between them lies a seven-year age gap, unfinished pasts, insecurities, jealousy, and the constant fear that their marriage was built too early, too fast, too unfairly. But somewhere between dance practices, shared mornings, and the quiet intimacy of domestic life, they begin to discover something terrifyingly beautiful ♪ This storyline belongs to @EliseInk. Any resemblance to other stories is just coincidental. Do be kind and support it.

The King of Rajgarh, His Majesty Joong Archen Aydin, is feared and worshipped. A war hero. A ruler with no scandal... until he's forced to marry to secure his throne. But the groom chosen for him? Dunk Natachai Boonprasert. A sharp-tongued socialite with zero filter, zero shame, and one secret mission: destroy the royal family from within for what they did to his father. Too bad Dunk didn't plan on actually liking the dangerously hot king he was supposed to seduce and betray. And too bad the king has a thing for mouthy husbands.

Rich boy Phuwin, Countryside Pond. Phuwin runs away and takes shelter in Pond's home,e but Pond doesn't like it. How will they navigate the coming days.

Pond naravit is the naravit university's founder's son, his mom is the principal everyone in the university fear him, not because he looks scary because he bullies everyone and knows how to fight he was getting bored until one day a new boy enter the university 'Phuwin' he looks so innocent but he's so cold and a fighter he don't like to talk too much but when he does everyone gets silent because of the savageness in his tone, at the first day pond tried to mess with phuwin but instead phuwin talkbacked with him and that was the day pond found interest in phuwin and he was so curious about this boy who had became his favorite enemy yet he's in love with him

"You're late. And you smell like someone else's perfume. It's midnight, Phuwin. The sun is down. Take it off." On campus, Pond is the Engineering "Golden Boy." Phuwin is his junior, the Architecture "Ice Prince." No one guesses they are bound by a secret FWB agreement that exists only from 12:00 AM to 6:00 AM - no titles, no daylight recognition and no strings attached. For Pond, it's a way to keep his popular life uncomplicated. For Phuwin, it is a poetic torture he endures just to have Pond in the dark. When a charming senior begins to openly pursue Phuwin in the light, the rules Pond created start to feel like a cage. "Midnight is bleeding into noon, junior." The 6:00 AM curfew has finally met its expiration date.

Phuwin has spent the entire semester convinced that his next-door neighbour is the single most annoying person on the planet. Pond Naravit is rich, popular at university, and somehow always exactly where Phuwin doesn't want him to be, which would already be bad enough if Pond wasn't also perfectly skilled at getting on his nerves. Meanwhile, Phuwin is just trying to survive university, figure out his life, and graduate without losing his sanity, but that becomes significantly harder when Pond Naravit moves into the dorm room right next to his. What Phuwin doesn't know is that Pond has liked him for a long time. And instead of saying it out loud like a normal person, he does the worst possible thing, he teases, provokes, and annoys Phuwin and unfortunately, that works a little too well cause now Phuwin hates him. Completely. To the core, except when things start getting confusing, when the same person who drives him insane is also the one who keeps showing up when it matters. The one who notices things no one else does. And suddenly Phuwin isn't so sure anymore. Because the more he tries to convince himself that he hates Pond Naravit... The more he starts to wonder if he ever really did.

Dunk's life didn't fall apart all at once. It rotted. The day his father remarried a woman young enough to be his sister, Dunk learned how quietly a home could become a grave. She erased his mother with a smile. Sold her things. Mocked her death. Drained his father's accounts, his spine, his will. And treated Dunk like something in the way - something disposable. When there was nothing left to steal, she vanished. Cold. Untouched. Unpunished. Dunk learns the world doesn't punish monsters. It rewards them. Until he finds her again. Beautiful. Untarnished. On the arm of Joong Archen - thirty-two, obscenely rich, untouchably powerful. A man dangerous enough to ruin lives without ever dirtying his hands. A man she plans to consume next. So Dunk doesn't chase her. He aims higher. He decides to destroy her the only way that will matter. He will make Joong choose him. Desire him. Protect him. Believe in him. Ruiner her by loving the wrong person. He will turn his beauty into a weapon. His youth into bait. His grief into leverage. His rage into strategy. Because a twenty-two-year-old with nothing left to lose is the most lethal thing alive. What Dunk doesn't plan for is Joong Archen becoming obsessed. Not infatuated. Not charmed. Obsessed in a way that is dark and absolute and violent. Joong doesn't fall in love. He consumes. He cages. He shields with blood and teeth and devotion. He worships Dunk like something holy - and something owned. And when Dunk realizes he didn't just seduce a powerful man but awakened something twisted, possessive, and irreversible- it's already far too late. Because Dunk wanted revenge. He never meant to break a man who doesn't know how to lose. And Joong Archen is not the kind of man you wound and survive.

Mr. Leo, a powerful businessman, remarried a woman named Rasee years ago. With her came a quiet little boy - Phuwin. And just like that, the perfect empire cracked. Because Pond, Mr. Leo's only son, never accepted them. Not his stepmother. And definitely not the boy he was now forced to call brother. Years passed... Phuwin grew up in silence, learning to smile through cold shoulders and slammed doors. He's now a 19-year-old psychology student, hiding his emotions behind books and the gentle company of his only true friend - Nanon. Pond, now 29, is a successful CEO of Astra Enterprises, sharp-tongued and emotionally unavailable. His best friend? A brilliant psychology professor, Ohm Pawat, who sees the cracks no one else does. And in a few weeks, Pond is set to marry Kaning - the daughter of another rich businessman. Perfect on paper. Completely hollow inside. But no one really knows what's going on behind the doors of that luxurious house. No one knows what Pond sees when he looks at Phuwin now. No one knows what Phuwin feels when he hears the word "Phi Pond." And no one - not even them - knows what's coming next. Because this isn't just a story about family. It's about love that shouldn't exist, hearts that shouldn't beat faster, and a home built on lies. Some stories aren't about happy endings... They're about the truth you can't run from.
