Vegas managed to erase any trace of Khun Pat and Khun Gray. The wickedness of two brothers are buried and turns into ashes just like their body and the mansion who witnessed the cruelness they did.
Vegas fulfilled his mission.
To Pete in the other dimension, his death has finally had its justice. To the first version of Pete that he loves, to the one that is resting forever, he is free.
Pam survived and after almost twenty years of separation, her and Khun Ja’s path crossed once again. For more than two decades, Khun Ja waited for her and loved her despite knowing what she had been.
Khun Ja accepted Pam and Pete, treating them as his family.
They found each other. Pam is his first love, greatest love and definitely the last.
In this world where Pat forces her, there is Ja who waited for her without any hint if she will ever return. Khun Ja loved her as who she is without questioning what she had been through.
He loved Pam for being Pam and that includes loving Pete.
They may not have the chance to be together before, at least in this universe, they find their way back.
As for White, when Khun Ja found out that he betrayed him, he was killed. His body is six feet under.
Pam asked his son while they are having their meal.
Pete smiled happily. “
After meeting his mother, Pete decided to leave the Main Family and be with her.
Khun Ja who loves him dearly like his own son gave him a position to his own company, making Pete his heir.
Khun Ja said after finishing his meal.
The three of them stood, as they all notice that something is going on outside.

A bodyguard enters. “He reported.
When Pete heard the surname, he instantly thinks of his Khun No. Since he moved out, Tankhun will visit him everyday and will call him from time to time.
Pete with his parents went to the veranda at the second floor of their house as they look down only to find the Theerapanyakul outside.
“!!!” It was Tankhun’s voice and he is hugging the gate while crying.
Pete can only cover his face and takes a look to his parents who are smiling beside him. Arm and Pol are both holding Tankhun’s arms; they look so embarrassed with their boss’ behavior.
!” Porsche shouted and look up, paying respect.
!” Porsche waved his hands too and the rest smiled at him.
Kinn whispered to Vegas who is now nervous.
Pete’s face flushed red when he saw Vegas. He was like a teenager who saw his crush.
Khun Ja teased while Pam can only laugh.
Vegas raise his head and their eyes met. Vegas let out a slight and shy smile as he takes a deep breath. Pete couldn’t help but hold his breath, feeling his blood rushing on his cheeks.
…” Kinn who’s now holding a guitar greeted.
Porsche, Che’ and Macau who’s at the back are jumping in happiness like kids. Arm and Pol are also teasing their boss because it is obvious that it didn’t favor Tankhun.
Kim said in a monotone voice. It was obvious that he only came here because Che’ convinced him.
Vegas that is quiet for a while now speaks. “
Vegas gestures his cousins to form a line and do their work properly.
Kinn and Kim are holding their guitars; Porsche and Arm are holding a tambourine. Pol and Macau are dancing at the background while Porsche’ will help to sing.

Tankhun? Crying at the very corner.
With their eyes fixed to each other, Vegas began to sing.
Pete never asked for love. All he wanted to know is the truth but along the way, the universe gave him someone that will see him as Pete and not just a bodyguard.
He never wanted to be save but he felt happy that someone came to help him,
He never expected for romance but the universe introduces him to Vegas, the person he never knew he will love this deep.
I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough,
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up.
When the song ended, everybody fell silent. Pete can only hear his heart beating fast in happiness. How amazing it is to fall in love in this way?
Pete felt his mother rub his back and smiled at him.
Pete stares at Vegas with his eyes reflecting the millions of stars in this universe.
“,” He answered with a smile.
In this world, Vegas saved Pete.
He was no longer haunted by regrets. Vegas doesn’t need to mourn. He doesn’t need to lock himself up in the bedroom and blame himself. Vegas no longer need to cry alone because Pete is alive.
… as long as there is Pete, there is Vegas.
They meet again in different timelines just like what Macau said and this time, they make it right.

Kind’s Kiss
MAGIC DOESN'T KILL, NOT BY ITSELF. IT NEEDS A LITTLE HELP. Jessica DeRidder is a substitute teacher and mage in hiding, her daughter Ellen a killer on the run. Their next job lands the mother-daughter team in Hellhole, a small town in the middle of nowhere. All they need to do is their job. For Mom to identify the problem, and for Ellen to... fix it. Easy. Simple. But not this time. The pair find themselves caught in the struggle between the Man-in-White and the Wicked Witch of the West. A mysterious image and the theft of a deadly flower lead the pair to a score of dead prisoners, magical drug dealers, and red-eyed assassins falling from the sky. And somehow it all seems to be related to Ellen's murky past. All Ellen wants to do is do her homework, eat ice cream, and protect her newfound friends (not necessarily in that order). She'll go all-in, guns blazing. But when the smoke clears there may be nothing left but a stranger's past and a lonely future. --- 'Kind's Kiss' is a light, modern-day fantasy, easy on the magic, heavy on the snark. Though complete it is still a work in progress. One reviewer described it as 'Buffy meets Sabrina, as done by Tarantino'. I'm still not sure if I should consider that a compliment or hire a hitman :-)
