"We can't pretend this didn't happen, Buchi."

The words hung in the air between us, a confession that changed everything. A mentor, a mentee, a chance encounter—suddenly everything blurred into one intoxicating moment of desire.

Buchi, a young scholarship student struggling to find his place in the world, has always been the quiet, invisible type, keeping his head down and his heart guarded. But when his mentor, the charismatic and complicated William, steps into his life, the lines between professional respect and personal longing begin to fade. Their connection, once based on guidance and responsibility, soon ignites into a forbidden tension neither of them can ignore.

As they navigate their relationship, their feelings grow more complicated. What started as an innocent mentorship blossoms into something neither can control—an age gap that feels impossible to cross, a burning passion that refuses to be silenced.

But the road from enemy to lover is paved with misunderstandings, jealousy, and long-buried secrets. William, always the protector, struggles with his growing feelings for the younger Buchi, while Buchi must grapple with his own desires, unsure if his love for William will be reciprocated or rejected.

In this poignant, slow-burn romance, age gap, mentor-mentee dynamics, and enemy-to-lovers themes collide in a story of passion, rivalry, and undeniable attraction. Will their love be their downfall, or will they find a way to defy the odds stacked against them?

A story about taking risks, embracing change, and falling for someone you were never meant to love.
