Hey guys this is my first official novel and also the first story I'm uploading on Wattpad. Kindly forgive technical issues (if any), I'm still trying to get used to the platform. I've tried my level best to avoid grammatical mistakes and errors, so please forgive me for any that you might come across. I know the chapters are a bit long (some are too long), but believe me they will be worth reading, I couldn't split them up since each chapter has a significance as a whole. That being said, enjoy the story... HAVE FUN!!!Complete

Sweet Lies & Slow-Burning Desire
Keng, a powerful yet emotionally detached businessman, never believed in love. His life is built on control, contracts, and calculated risks-a world where money can solve anything, including loneliness. That's why when Namping, a struggling artist with nowhere to turn, stumbles into his life, Keng offers him a simple solution: a contract. A sugar arrangement. Namping gets financial security-no more worrying about rent, no more exhausting part-time jobs. In return, all he has to do is be by Keng's side when needed. Dinners, events, late-night conversations over fine wine... but no feelings. At least, that was the rule. But Namping is nothing like the people Keng has kept around before. He's unpredictable, too stubborn for his own good, too warm for Keng's cold world. He teases, he laughs, he softens the edges of Keng's carefully guarded heart. And Keng? He finds himself breaking his own rules. What was supposed to be a business arrangement turns into stolen glances, lingering touches, late-night confessions neither of them should be making. "You were supposed to be temporary." "Then why does it feel like I'm the only thing real in your life?" The closer they get, the more the lines blur. Keng tells himself it's just desire. That it's not love. That he could let go anytime. But when the contract ends, will he be able to?Complete
