SYNOPSIS: After his girlfriend dumps him for a man with a fatter wallet, Henry Sorn hits a dark, upscale club to forget his own sorrow. He spots a man—impeccably dressed, devastatingly handsome, and radiating raw, dangerous authority. Driven by a reckless, drunken impulse, Henry whispers a proposition: “Want to fuck?” The stranger pulls him into a shadow-drenched alcove, and their first night is a blur of desperate friction and primal need. The shock arrives the next morning in a lecture hall: the man from the club is Frank Miller, the university’s most esteemed—and intimidating—professor. Frank doesn't want romance; he wants a release valve. He’s a high-functioning closeted gay with a reputation to protect and a picture-perfect girlfriend waiting in the wings. He offers Henry a simple arrangement: no feelings, just sex. Henry, still aching from his breakup, agrees, hungry for the way Frank’s hands map his body and the way the professor’s icy composure melts into sweat-slicked command behind locked doors. But as the hookups grow more frequent and the intensity pushes them further into obsession, the line between "fuck buddies" and "belonging to each other" begins to fray. Henry is hooked on the taste of the man who isn't his to have—and he starts to realize that the more he pushes, the more the professor’s carefully constructed life starts to crack.
