For Your Eyes Only
Perth Tanapon is Thailand's rising heartthrob - a singer under RISER Music and actor under GMMTV. Santa Pongsapak is the internet's sunshine - a wildly popular TikTok content creator with millions of fans. They've never officially met, but Perth already knows Santa's laugh by heart, has a secret folder of his videos, and may have liked one too many "chaotic but cute" tweets at 3AM. In a world where every look sparks rumors and every word is watched, falling in love isn't just risky - it's almost impossible. But sometimes... the heart slips up. And sometimes, "almost" becomes something more.Complete
And Then I Saw You Again
Santa Pongsapak was 23 when he fell in love for the first time not with someone his powerful family approved of, but with a bright, stubborn engineer named Perth who made Santa laugh in the middle of his chaotic internship shifts. Their love was unexpected, chaotic, and unforgettable. And despite warnings, threats, and the weight of expectations, Santa married him. But love wasn't enough. Painful misunderstandings pulled them in opposite directions, until all that remained was distance... and a heartbreaking separation. They weren't supposed to cross paths again. But they did..five years later. And when they did, everything came rushing back with them. The love. The care. The laughter they once shared in stolen midnight hours. The late-night banters that slowly turned into early morning arguments. The quiet comfort of standing side by side... that eventually twisted into the sharp bitterness of blame. The understanding that once held them together faded into silence. And in that silence, misunderstandings grew like thorns. Time changed them. The one who used to light up every room with laughter now hides behind walls of cold silence. The one who once brought peace now burns with a fire he can't put out. They've become strangers with familiar eyes shaped by years, scarred by silence, hardened by the weight of everything they never said. And yet... There's still a part of them quiet, stubborn, and aching that refuses to let go. That part still remembers the softness. Still clings to the warmth. Still hopes... even when everything else has turned to ash. Tropes: Second Chance Romance CEO x Doctor Angst Protective love marriageComplete
Between Control and Chaos
Perth Tanapon was a man of control-cold, precise, untouchable. As the CEO of Riser Music, his world was ruled by discipline, silence, and carefully maintained distance. Love was a distraction, emotions were weaknesses, and attachments? Out of the question. Then came Santa. A neonatal nurse with a sharp tongue, an infuriating smile, and absolutely no fear of him. Santa was warmth where Perth had only ever known cold, chaos where Perth had built order, and the first person to ever push past his walls like they never existed at all. What started as a game of wits-teasing glances, fleeting touches, power struggles disguised as flirtation-soon spirals into something neither of them can control. Because control was never meant to last. Not when Santa made losing feel so damn good. And Perth was never letting him go.Complete

Perth glares. Santa bakes cookies. Perth scoffs-but secretly eats them all. Santa trips into Perth's arms. Perth pretends to be annoyed-but his heart races. Let the chaos (and sweetness) begin.Complete
