The sleek, shimmering towers of downtown Bangkok served as a stunning backdrop for the high-end event, held by a renowned make-up product brand. The venue was a dazzling spectacle of elegance and opulence, exuding a cosmopolitan glamour unique to Thailand's capital city. It was awash in a glow of ambient light reflecting off crystal chandeliers, casting a soft, warm light on the faces of those present. Celebrities, influencers, and models, among them the renowned star, Bright, mingled and meandered, their laughter and light chatter creating a captivating hum in the opulent ballroom.

Among the crowd, a striking figure stood out, none other than Than. With his strikingly handsome features, Than exuded a charisma that matched the event's grandeur and seamlessly blended with the other attendees. His almond eyes were calm but lively, his sharp jawline accentuated by the subtle strobing of makeup, and his lips, tinted a soft nude shade, parted in a charming smile.

As part of the event, a fashion show was held, featuring the country's top models, including Than. Dressed in a stunningly gorgeous idol-like costume designed by a renowned designer, his appearance was further accentuated by a sublime makeup look created by the country's top makeup artists using the brand's products. Cameras flashed incessantly, trying to capture every moment of the spectacle, but despite his professional demeanor and brilliant performance, Than's mind frequently wandered towards Kin and the party at the Hub.

Hours slipped by, unnoticed amidst the glamour and glitz, and as the event approached its close, Than's gaze fell upon Bright, engrossed in his interactions with the media and friends. Press interviews were a whirlwind of questions about Bright's upcoming BL series set to launch on a popular streaming platform. Bright fielded each question with his characteristic warmth and professionalism.

Desiring some private time with Bright, Than decided to defer it for later and made up his mind to join the party at the Hub. It was nearing 11 pm, but the energetic rhythm of Bangkok's night scene convinced him that the party would likely continue for several more hours.

After a half-hour taxi ride in a high-end vehicle, Than arrived at the Hub. His stunning costume and striking features immediately grabbed the attention of the crowd. He confidently strode through the near-hundred guests gathered in the venue, the atmosphere was abuzz with a kind of chaotic energy that he couldn't quite pinpoint. But as he ventured deeper into the party, Than couldn't shake the sense of something amiss, an undercurrent of tension that left him wondering what had transpired in his absence.

"Than! You finally made it here,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO6f6nLDkn
one of his model friends from the architecture faculty greeted him. A tall figure with a sharp jawline and stylishly messy hair, his eyes twinkled with amusement as he took in Than's appearance.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsZPHLkXbC
"You look absolutely gorgeous tonight, like a superstar. How was the event?"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh7wEfv3D5
"Marvelous, as it should be,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRptGs02yXB
Than replied nonchalantly, his gaze flickering across the crowded club. Despite the lively atmosphere and pulsating music, something felt off. He decided to voice his observation, his voice holding a trace of concern.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiFxV1y8Y8
"But something seems...strange. Is there something going on that I should know about?"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcra3EXqs7
His friend paused for a moment, a flicker of uncertainty crossing his eyes.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLEcngr3KD
"Well, there seems to be some 'issue' that occurred between the business school seniors and some of my peers. I don't know the details, but it seems quite...intense."
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35SH9XoHlu
Than’s eyebrows lifted at the vague explanation. The words 'business school seniors' and 'intense' in the same context piqued his curiosity, stirring a sense of worry within him. Could his beloved P'Kin be involved? Excusing himself from his friend, Than decided to delve further into the hubbub of the party.

"I warned you... you were playing with fire,”
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijXNYGhuZQ
Korn spoke to Loft in a low voice, a serious tone lacing his words. His handsome face was drawn in worry, his dark eyes tracing Loft's pale face and unfocused eyes. He had seen the depth of Kin's intense personality during their previous passionate encounters. He knew that the fiery, dominant side that Kin just displayed shouldn't have been provoked.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgWMb1Z7xh
"Now I know... it feels like I really got burned by his fire,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZRBdevMPy
Loft admitted, a shaky laugh trying to mask his shaky state. His chest still tightened with the lingering imprint of the ferocious emotions Kin had poured into their heated kiss.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcLNMbIKch
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmcuw5W6V6
"Sorry for my friend, Nong-Loft. Maybe you were the one who started this, but he shouldn't have been this harsh on you. He is a senior after all,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4A0gzsiW3
Jirat spoke, his words marked with sincere concern and a tinge of regret for not stopping the situation sooner.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EGv7j7g6V
Meanwhile, on Kin's side, he had cooled down, still surrounded by the four juniors with soft, calming demeanors who were trying to bring him back to earth. The rest of the crowd had retreated, some of them encouraging others to continue enjoying their night and leave this matter behind, while a few stayed to help resolve the situation.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWErSEnMMT
"I'm sorry, guys, for letting this happen,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUftFtsnpQ
Kin finally managed to say, his voice strained with restrained emotion. His body was still taut, a physical manifestation of the tension that still lingered in his mind and soul.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4A8SEPOCP
"No, P'Kin, it's us who have to apologize. We let this happen to you," one junior piped up, his arms wrapping around Kin's broad, muscular shoulders in a comforting hug.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKOZ1jOmeW
"And I...I went too far, touching you and encouraging Loft to do the same. I'm really sorry," the athlete junior added, his face flushed with shame.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3aALqFfCl
Other juniors followed suit, layering their apologies on top of each other, their collective voices forming a remorseful chorus that filled the room. Their warmth, genuine remorse, and accumulated hugs felt like a healing balm on Kin's still simmering anger and passion.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpU6HvIOI4
Meanwhile, from afar, Than noticed a familiar figure surrounded by a group of juniors. His heart rate quickened as he recognized the muscular build and distinct presence of Kin, whom the juniors seemed to be comforting. Shaking off the surprise and worry, Than decided to approach the group. His entrance did not go unnoticed.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTTDT6TXAm
"Nong-Than,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEd82bfBybn
Kin greeted him, his eyes instantly recognizing the stunning figure of his junior. He acknowledged Than's presence, which, even in the midst of chaos, radiated an effortless aura that commanded attention. The juniors felt the magnetic energy of Than and composed themselves as he approached.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIficO3A34t
"Guys, this is Than, my junior from engineering,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IDuTqHbWL
Kin introduced Than to the juniors, who reciprocated with polite nods and a few impressed glances. They exchanged knowing glances among themselves, their eyes reflecting their internal thoughts, their minds speculating about Than's potential connection to Kin.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5jXtlKtCJ
"Hello, guys. Hi, P'Kin," Than greeted, his usual warm smile gracing his face, albeit accompanied by a hint of concern. He addressed his next question to the group, though his gaze never left Kin.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuvjpACvsK
"Is there something going on?"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TrdeYAbHN
A weighted silence fell upon the group, the complexity of the situation making it difficult for anyone to articulate a response.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng7fIK5TAP
Kin, his shirt unbuttoned and revealing a muscular torso, appeared as if he was recovering from some intense emotional onslaught. The room around him vibrated with awkward energy, the surrounding juniors offering him expectant glances, expecting him to explain the situation. As he gathered his thoughts, he answered haltingly, a slight grimace crossing his face,
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zUnDdNGpx
"Well, it's a bit of a complex situation. All I can say is that I've acted somewhat... recklessly and I feel incredibly embarrassed about it.”
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwnKraNw55
His words trailed off, laden with regret and remorse. One of the juniors interjected swiftly,
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTt1Ytu5Bk
"Don't say it like that P'Kin." There was a reassuring warmth in his words, trying to lessen the weight of Kin's self-reproach.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTochcHAex
Observing the strained atmosphere, Than studied Kin's heavy expression, his disarrayed appearance, and the lingering tension in his body. Deciding not to probe further, Than chose to offer comfort instead. He moved closer to Kin, the juniors naturally making room for him, his presence a balm to the tense environment.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1XMplcyL7
"You seem to have gone through something emotionally intense. Don't worry, you don't need to explain if you're not comfortable. I'll stay with you to help you feel at ease,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNdPMQp63p
Than offered with a gentle smile, his words brimming with sincerity and kindness. Taking a squatting position to be at eye level with Kin, his familiar and comforting presence enveloped Kin. The remaining juniors took the hint, slowly departing, and leaving the two alone in their own bubble of shared comfort.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCEPzb0fLi
"Maybe you remember, maybe you don't," Than started, a playful lilt in his voice, "but the last time I saw you here at The Hub, you were also in this... condition."
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyy4eB6yvL
His gaze roved over Kin's half-open shirt and the sculpted muscles beneath, a teasing note in his voice.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5YXfqcAYz
"Really, I don't remember,”
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuy4W13vBob
Kin responded, a hint of genuine embarrassment creeping into his voice as he began to button up his shirt from the bottom, his eyes averted.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUyCwhY3EF
"Don't worry P'Kin, you still look... hot, in any condition,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NntoBI8Be
Than replied, his voice rich with affection and a touch of flirtation. A playful smile danced on his lips, aimed at easing Kin's discomfort and lighting up the somber mood.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dPAubrqNX
Seeing the rippling muscles of Kin's pecs and defined abs, Than found his mind wandering into realms of delicious naughtiness. He recalled the throes of their intense, passionate encounters when Kin, in all his masculine glory, had dominated him relentlessly. The thought sent a thrill through him, and he quickly composed himself, returning his focus to the conversation.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjhMhSmttw
"I have been thinking about you the whole time at the event. I don't know why,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN155iVvNea
Than confessed, a soft blush colouring his cheeks, a quiet admittance of the hold Kin had over his thoughts.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmU0S0OQCU
"How was the event? Did it go well?”
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uKatFu8Y9
Kin asked, eager to shift the focus and alleviate the intimate tension that had crept into their conversation. The question also served as a momentary distraction from his lingering embarrassment.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaHHlUPwsc
From afar, Loft sat with Korn and Jirat, their conversation winding down. His eyes fell on the sight of Than sitting close to Kin, a pang of surprise shot through him.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUNqLaXoSy
"Isn't that Nong-Than sitting beside Kin?"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X8Ado0WTa
Jirat noted, squinting at the pair in the distance, a frown of curiosity creasing his forehead.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxRyWCKHvS
"He might have just arrived from another event," Korn suggested, his expert gaze taking in his high-end attire and perfectly groomed appearance, indicative of Than’s recent attendance at a more formal gathering.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhInoZ8VihP
Loft's mind was a turmoil of regret, guilt, and a sense of loss. One impulsive move, one reckless utterance, and he had squandered a wonderful opportunity to connect with Kin. The torment on his face was quite evident, and Korn, noticing this, tried to reassure him.
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpgRyzhk4x
"Let P'Kin have his time, Loft. Don't worry, he's not the type to hold grudges for too long,"
232Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6DMKPZSNY
Korn tried to reassure Loft, yet Loft's gaze remained fixed on Kin and Than. A swirl of emotions coursed through him, jealousy prominent amongst them, as he watched their close interaction from afar.
