Daniver calls the sky her home. Carrie calls every country a client. A pilot who is always chasing the horizon. An attorney with international cases that never let her stay still. Two women with packed lives in carry-ons and no reason to slow down. Well, until they crash into each other. No plans. No expectations. Just fate being annoying. Every city becomes a backdrop, every fleeting moment feels like home, and somehow, between delayed flights and overbooked rooms, they start thinking about staying. They say, when your worlds are always in motion, maybe love is the one thing that finally makes you want to land.

Victoria Merriel De Vera is the perfect heiress-beautiful, intelligent, and next in line to become the CEO of De Vera Holdings. There is only one condition. She must be married. With no time for love, Victoria offers a deal to one of her employees-Arkin Jaye Patterson, a confident and charming intersex engineer living a simple life. Pretend to be her fiancé, and she will save her family's farm. A fake engagement. A business arrangement. But the more they pretend to be in love, the harder it becomes to remember that it was never meant to be real.

Enemies. Rivals. Magkalaban sa bawat pagkakataon. Ngunit paano kung sa likod ng bawat banggaan ay may tensyong hindi nila maipaliwanag? Paano kung ang galit ay unti-unting nagiging atraksyon? Sa pagitan ng pride, lihim, at reputasyong nakataya, mapipilitan sina Chloe at Jax na harapin ang isang tanong na mas mapanganib kaysa sa kanilang rivalry: Paano kung ang taong pinakaayaw mo... siya rin ang taong hindi mo kayang mawala?

Slow-burn story!

Lingling Kwong is the East Kingdom's secret "Mad Dog". A battle mage who lives only for the thrill of the kill, known as a legend-the greatest swordmaster of all time. For a political alliance, she is forced to marry Princess Orm from the North, a woman as beautiful and ethereal as the first snow. Lingling's mother gives her a simple out: if you don't like your wife, you may kill her and come back. But upon meeting her, Lingling is shocked to find herself-the kingdom's most powerful warrior-being treated like a fragile piece of glass by her stunningly devoted wife. Will an unexpected romance bloom, or will the Mad Dog eventually kill the beautiful woman who smothers her? A/N: This is an adaptation to a manhwa I have read few years ago that somehow I forgot the name of the manhwa but the concept stayed in my head. With that, the concept of this story is based on that manhwa though every chapter and plot that would come is based on my delulu. Happy Reading! SLOW UPDATES!! Reason: Hard to write HAHAHAHA

-"YOU SOLD ME OFF TO WHO???" -"We did not sell you off Orm! But this was a deal made long ago when you were born. When you reach 21years old, you'd be engaged to the Kwong's Oldest daughter" -"That's such long sentence just to say, yes we sold you off" -Orm rolled her eyes in exasperation at her Parents who winced at her reaction. -"We know it is a bit sudden but we wanted you to have freedom first before telling you this. And since your birthday is in a week, we decided to announce it to you now" Orm couldn't believe her ears. How come, they suddenly announced her she'd be soon engaged to someone she never met before and all that because of a promise their parents made before?? Were they crazy??? -"Also, for your 21th Birthday, we will host a party in our mansion where you will be able to meet your future in-laws and... Wife" -"WHAT NOW????" Meanwhile.... -"Ling ling, you will be soon engaged to the daughter of one of our collaborator. We will attend her birthday Party saturday to officially present you two" -Ling ling's mother came into her office while her daughter was focused on her computer. Working. -"Is she pretty?" -"Uh... yes?" -"Then Alright" Follow the funny story of how two pairs that was forced to stay together for the sake of their family, slowly fall in love with each other.... In the sweetest yet funniest way possible.

**Disclaimer:** I don't own any of the characters Lingling Kwong had wanted Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong for months. Six, to be exact. And finally, the perfect opportunity had arrived to make her hers-at least for a little while. Billionaire entrepreneur Lingling Kwong knew Orm was eager to secure Kwong Enterprises' advertising deal with Kittichai & Co. Maybe Ling would sign the deal. But first, Orm had to agree to accompany her to a lavish family wedding in Koh Samui.

Ling Ling Kwong is a nerdy, awkward electrical engineer who'd rather fix a toaster than talk to people. Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong is a glamorous Keep:Silent hotel CEO with a secret soft spot for clingy affection and dorky girls in glasses. When Orm hires Ling to upgrade her hotel's energy system, sparks fly-just not the kind Ling can explain with science. What starts as business slowly turns into late-night ramen, lingering touches, and a love that simmers before it burns.
