Stand-In Shadows 🌑🩸(PondPhuwin)
26 parts Complete MatureHe lost the love of his life once.
He never expected to see his face again.
Pond has lived for years haunted by grief-his gentle, soft-hearted lover torn away too soon. But when Phuwin walks into his life, wearing the same face yet carrying a soul far sharper, the past comes crashing back.
On the surface, Phuwin is everything Pond remembers: pure, fragile, angelic. But behind the mask lies something dangerous-a white lotus in full bloom, hiding thorns of manipulation, selfishness, and desire. Where the one Pond lost was yielding, Phuwin is fierce. Where the past was tender, Phuwin burns.
Pond tells himself he won't fall. That this stranger can never replace the ghost he mourns. Yet every kiss tastes like obsession, every touch like poison, every night a war of lust and loathing. The more he resists, the deeper he's dragged into Phuwin's web-until he must face the truth.
Is he in love with a memory?
Or has he finally found the one who can set him free?
Alongside them, Off and Gun walk their own path-one of devotion, jealousy, and healing love. Their bond is tested, but in their steadiness lies the contrast to Pond and Phuwin's storm, and the promise that even in shadows, happiness is possible.
