Gloves Off, Hearts On [WilliamEst]

Pretending was supposed to be easy... until desire entered the ring.

William, 21 years old, a rising boxing star, is determined to stay away from dating until he wins gold at the Asian Games. But constant pressure from his family to start dating proves more distracting than actually dating.

So William hatches a plan: pretend to be gay and enlist his trainer Est, 27 years old, legend in Thai boxing and a notorious playboy who flirts with new girls constantly, to fake a relationship and keep his family satisfied. Est agrees to pretend to be gay and fake date as well to keep William focused on boxing.

Living together to make the lie believable, every shared meal, training session, accidental touch, heated sparring match, and stolen glance blurs the line between pretense and reality. What started as a harmless act slowly awakens feelings neither of them expected, forcing them to confront desires they never knew were there.

⚠️ Disclaimers: Contains: Intense feelings, strong language, borderline toxic push and pull, angst but served with hotness, self discovery -- be ready for a rollercoaster!
