The sun rises over the city, casting a warm glow over the luxurious bedroom where Julian and Asher lie entwined. Their bodies, still wrapped in the sheets, bear the evidence of a passionate night.

episode 2
Asher, walked into the dimly lit room with the towel, his eyes scanning the space with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion. His gaze landed on Julian, who was sitting on the bed, Asher's phone in his hand.
Julian's eyes were fixed on the screen, a look of shock and horror etched on his face. Asher's heart sank as he realized what was happening. Julian had stumbled upon the truth - the messages, the codes, the secrets that Asher had kept hidden for so long.
Asher's expression darkened, his eyes narrowing into slits. He took a step closer to Julian.
Julian slowly looked up, his eyes meeting Asher's. The fear and uncertainty in his eyes only fueled Asher's angry.
Don Asher

julian
(nervously) I..I..was just looking for a charger, I didn't mean to snoop
Don Asher

episode 3
Julian's eyes slowly fluttered open, his mind foggy and his body heavy. He was disoriented, unsure of where he was or how he got there.
As his gaze cleared, he saw that he was in a luxurious bedroom, surrounded by opulent furnishings and lavish decor. But despite the luxurious surroundings, Julian felt a sense of unease and fear.
He tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness washed over him, forcing him back onto the pillows. His head was pounding, and his mouth was dry.
Suddenly, memories began to flood back. He remembered Asher's bodyguard bringing the drugged handkerchief and Asher's cold, calculating smile.
Julian's eyes scanned the room frantically, searching for any sign of Asher any of his bodyguard. But he was alone.
With a surge of adrenaline, Julian threw off the covers and tires to swing his leg over but discovered his leg was tied to the bed.
But as he stood up, he felt a wave of dizziness wash over him again. He stumbled, catching himself on the bedpost.
Julian realized that he had been drugged. Asher must have sedated him, to keep him captive.
A cold fury burned within Julian. He was determined to escape.
Don Asher
You are up(said smiling)
julian
(tries to balance) what do you want from me
Don Asher
I don't want this to happen, but I have no choice
Don Asher
(brings the plate of rice on the table to feed him)
Don Asher
