chapter 17 : A heartfelt confession

With his newfound power, Khem's feelings for Sun deepened. He longed to be closer to Sun, to comfort and protect him. As he gazed into Sun's eyes, he knew that their connection went beyond friendship.

Sun, sensing Khem's intense gaze, felt his heart race. He saw the desire and affection in Khem's eyes and knew that his own feelings were reciprocated.

Khem's hands still rested on Sun's shoulders, and he could feel the warmth of Sun's body. He leaned in, his lips inches from Sun's, and whispered, "Sun, I want to be with you. Completely."

Sun's breath caught, and he nodded, his eyes locked on Khem's. "I want that too, Khem."

Their lips met in a tender, yet passionate kiss, as the energy of Khem's powers surrounded them, nurturing their love

Khem's eyes locked onto Sun's, his gaze filled with sincerity. "Sun, will you be my คนรัก?" he asked, his voice trembling with emotion.( คนรัก" (kon rak) is a Thai term of endearment, similar to "lover" or "beloved)

Sun's heart skipped a beat. No one had ever asked him to be their kon rak before. He felt a rush of joy and love, knowing that Khem wanted to deepen their connection. "Yes, Khem," he replied, his voice barely above a whisper. "I'll be your kon rak."

Khem's face lit up with a radiant smile. "Really?" he asked, his eyes shining with happiness.

Sun nodded, his heart overflowing with love. "Really," he confirmed, his voice filled with conviction.

Khem's eyes sparkled with joy as he drew Sun into a gentle embrace. Their hearts beat as one, their love palpable in the silence. Sun's head found its natural resting place on Khem's shoulder, feeling safe and cherished. Khem's arms cradled Sun, his fingers tenderly tracing the curves of his back. They stood there, wrapped in each other's love, the world around them melting away.

As they held each other, their breathing synchronized, and their love became the only truth that mattered. In that tender moment, they found their haven, their hearts overflowing with happiness and gratitude.

Khem and Sun reluctantly parted, their faces still aglow with happiness. Krit's playful cough and teasing words broke the spell, but their love remained strong.

"Ah, Krit, you're a perfect timing master," Khem said with a chuckle, his eyes still shining with affection for Sun.

Sun smiled, his cheeks flushing slightly. "Yeah, we were just... um... discussing something."

Krit grinned mischievously. "I'm sure you were. Anyway, Grandmother is calling for you both. Something about a family gathering and a special announcement."

Khem's curiosity piqued. "An announcement? That sounds intriguing."

Sun's eyes met Khem's, and they shared a silent understanding. Hand in hand, they followed Krit to meet their Grandmother, their love and connection evident in every step.
