In a world ruled by legacy, two women are forced into a marriage neither of them wanted... but fate might have other plans. Orm Kornnaphat is a spoiled heiress - fiery, dramatic, and used to getting her way. She's the rebellious daughter of a powerful food export empire, more interested in stuffed toys and late mornings than boardrooms and responsibilities. When her family forces her into an arranged marriage, she's furious - especially when her bride turns out to be the mysterious stranger who once helped her on a night she can't even remember. Lingling Kwong is the definition of composed. Cold, calculating, and beautiful, she's the only child of the Kwong business dynasty and a boss feared by everyone - but apparently not including her new wife. For Ling, obedience is survival. She's always done what's expected of her, even if it means marrying a bratty stranger for the sake of business and family pride. Thrown into a high-profile marriage neither of them asked for, Orm and Lingling become unwilling partners in a game far bigger than themselves. From chaotic mornings to silent car rides, office wars to stuffed toys invading private spaces - they're learning that hatred, annoyance, and sarcasm might just blur into something else when you're stuck in the same home, same office... and the same destiny. Love isn't part of the plan. But fate? Fate doesn't care what they planned.

Ira Suwannathat has spent her life fighting against the assumptions people make about her. As the daughter of a powerful and ruthless businessman, many see her as nothing more than a privileged socialite, a spoiled heiress with her father's wealth at her disposal. But Ira is determined to carve her own path-building a career in music and fashion, proving she's more than just her last name. However, her life is threatened due to her father's dangerous business dealings, forcing her back under his control. Enter Tawan Liang, an ex-special forces operative haunted by her own past failures. The last thing Tawan wants is another high-profile protection detail, especially one as reckless and headstrong as Ira. But the job is a necessary distraction from the ghosts that torment her. As Tawan fights to keep Ira safe, she quickly realizes that the woman behind the headlines is nothing like she expected-resilient, compassionate, and fiercely determined to break free from her father's grasp. What starts as a duty soon becomes something much deeper, something Tawan knows she shouldn't want. But protecting Ira isn't just about keeping her out of harm's way-it's about shielding her from the dark truths that could shatter everything. As the threats escalate and the lines between duty and desire blur, Tawan is forced to confront her own demons. She needs redemption. She needs Ira. But she knows she can't have both.

Ling feels threatened by an unseen danger. Orm is gripped by protectiveness and the fear of losing her. In the shadows, their bond is the only light.

Ten years ago, Ling was stood up on prom night by the only person she ever trusted - her best friend Orm. Heartbroken and humiliated, she left her small Missouri town behind, building a flawless new life as one of New York's top criminal defense attorneys. She never went back. She never forgave Orm. She never looked for answers. Until Orm started showing up again. Only Ling can see her. Only Ling can hear her. And as the haunting presence of her long-lost friend begins to unravel her carefully controlled world, Ling is forced to confront a truth far more terrifying than betrayal. Some promises don't die. Some disappearances aren't what they seem. And some ghosts refuse to let go. Thank you @SKS_Darlene in X for the prompt

New in town and unimpressed by the high school hierarchy, Ling from Hong Kong quickly catches the eye of Orm, the school's queen bee. But Orm's way of showing interest isn't exactly textbook romance. Think playful pranks, awkward interventions, and a whole lot of unintentional infuriation for Ling. Yet, beneath the surface of their bizarre interactions, a genuine connection sparks. Can this unconventional crush blossom despite Orm's misguided attempts at attention and Ling's growing mix of annoyance and undeniable intrigue?
