When political unrest threatens the royal family, Princess Aiah Arceta is secretly sent to the Philippines to keep her safe-away from the crown, the palace, and the life slowly suffocating her. Accompanied only by her Filipina yaya, Aiah steps into a world where she is no longer a princess, but a girl learning how to breathe. Waiting for her is Miko Lim, a well-known chef who hates disorder, secrets, and anything that could endanger the people he loves. Protective of his mother and tired of her loyalty to the royal family, Miko sees Aiah as a risk he never asked for. But as days turn into quiet nights and stolen moments, walls begin to crack. A princess longing for freedom meets a man who built his life around control-and in the country where she hides from the world, they find something neither of them was prepared for. Because some love isn't chosen. Some love finds you... as if you were born for it.

This story is for all the MikhAiah shippers ❤️

What would you do if the person you hired to care for your son looked exactly like your late wife? Kairo Lim (M) has been struggling to raise his son alone ever since his wife Lia passed away - he barely knows where to start when it comes to parenting, let alone managing his own life. When Nyssa Arceta applies for the job as his assistant and nanny, he's relieved to find someone capable enough to handle both roles... but there's one condition: she must also take care of his personal needs. But as Nyssa (A) settles into her work, Kairo can't shake the uncanny feeling that he's seen her face before. She bears an eerie resemblance to Lia - so much so that he finds himself questioning everything he thought he knew about loss, love, and second chances.

Her touch is the secret he craves. His voice is the whisper she needs. They have everything except each other. Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction.
