Melted: A MaxTul AU story

Max returns to Thailand after finishing his latest manuscript only to accidentally meet the oldest son of the company that's one of the main topics of his next book. Tul has the reputation for having a chip on his shoulder for being the bastard son, but that's not the Tul Max gets to know. However, this isn't just a story that shows a friendship that turns into love, but a team that comes together to fight for the legacy of a company and to right a wrong that began 30 years ago. It involves a ragtag team, corporate intrigue, slight underworld connections, organic farming, embassy contacts, and enough angst to make even @sojunights happy.

I was inspired by one of the very first Korean dramas I watched: Queen of Reversals. I loved that story because it was one of the few times that the second lead actually ends up getting the girl, but I rewrote that drama in my mind over and over again after the memory of my joy was tainted. Then recently, I had a dream where Max Nattapol and Tul Pakorn were the leads, and Boom! I did keep some relationships from the original show, but this is definitely an AU so those of you who are fans of the show will find only a few scenes/relationships that you remember .
