North's life was already a disaster-drowning in debt, dealing with chaotic friends, and just trying to survive university. But one drunken mistake changes everything. He wakes up in Johan's bed.
No big deal, right? Wrong. Because Johan has been watching him for three years.
Johan isn't just some rich heir-he's obsessive, controlling, and terrifyingly patient. He's spent years planning the perfect way to have North, and now that fate has handed him this opportunity, he's never letting go. North thinks he can escape, but Johan has already rewritten his entire life.
Meanwhile, North's friends are the only thing standing between him and total doom-Easter, the chaotic shipper with his ever-serious boyfriend Hill; Daotok and Typhoon, the self-proclaimed lifesavers who cause more problems than they solve. On the other side, Johan has his own allies-Arthit and Tonfah-who make sure no one gets in the way of his twisted love.
But love is love... right?
As North unknowingly falls deeper into Johan's web, he begins to accept the life carefully crafted for him. His friends remain his last connection to reality, but even they can't fight Johan's devotion forever.
Some people live happily ever after. Some just live happily unaware.

He was quiet for a moment before responding. "You matter, Y/n. Don't forget that."
