Dont Act Like Im Average Novels & Stories

“I don't need a partner. I only need someone who knows their place.” Darren Wijaya is a young billionaire who commands power and fear in the business world. Behind his seemingly perfect life, however, lie secrets that must never be exposed to the public. One night, he meets Ezra, a university student on the verge of dropping out due to financial hardship. When every door seems closed, Darren presents him with an offer that is impossible to ignore. A luxurious apartment. A monthly allowance worth more than enough to live comfortably. Every expense taken care of. In return, Ezra only has to belong to him. Not as a boyfriend. Not as a partner. Just someone who will always be there whenever Darren needs him. For the sake of his future, Ezra accepts the arrangement. He promises himself that he will never let emotions become involved in a relationship that is, from the very beginning, nothing more than a transaction. But as time passes and he gets to know Darren better, Ezra begins to see the man behind the power—a loneliness hidden beneath authority, scars concealed behind a cold exterior, and small acts of kindness that slowly make his heart waver. The problem is that, to Darren, Ezra is nothing more than a kept companion. At least, that's what he keeps telling himself. Until the day he realizes that losing Ezra is far more terrifying than losing every cent of his fortune.
