✒️ Fantasy romance set in 1930s Phii-seua: Butterfly Phii-seua was the title given to the concubines of the nobles--women of lower caste marked with a tattoo of a butterfly. Ayla, a girl from the Southern lands, struggled to survive alone after being cast away to the North--a free land ruled by nobles. Her mistake was only one: She picked up a fallen apple that belonged to Tawan. Tawan-Rawee Wang, the daughter of a noble family, the military ruler of the Northern border. "Khun Poo, I want that shabby, grasshopper-smelling girl to be my Phii-seua. Make the Phii-seua mark on her shoulder." That cursed mark of ownership haunted her for life. Ayla, the hungry little girl, ended up becoming the concubine of a noble girl--Tawan. Tawan-Rawee Wang. *** "Divorce me, Khun. You can find another woman you want to keep your bed warm." "Ayla, darling, do you really think I'd let you go that easily? Try being a good, obedient girl for me."

Lingling Sirilak Kwong, the fiercely independent heir to one of Thailand's most prestigious hospital empires, has no interest in romance. Scarred by a past betrayal, she vows never to open her heart again. But as the pressure to marry and uphold her family's legacy mounts, Lingling finds herself cornered-until a chance encounter gives her a bold idea. Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong, a hardworking university student juggling studies and a food delivery job to pay her tuition, has little time for anything outside her dreams of a better future. When a fateful accident leaves a scratch on Lingling's luxury car, Orm braces herself for the worst. Instead, she's blindsided by a proposition that will change her life forever. Desperate to avoid the suitors her parents have chosen, Lingling tricks Orm into a contract marriage, offering her financial security in exchange for pretending to be her girlfriend. But as their lives intertwine, the stark differences between them ignite more than just tension. What starts as a cold business arrangement begins to thaw under the warmth of shared moments, unexpected kindness, and the spark of something real. Will Lingling and Orm overcome the barriers of class, past wounds, and their own fears to find love in the most unlikely of places?

The engagement was never supposed to happen. But after a viral video, a media frenzy, and a carefully worded press release, Ling and Orm find themselves at the center of Thailand's biggest love story. Perfect on paper, untouchable on-screen, and utterly incompatible behind closed doors. Their job is simple: look in love, act in love, sell the love. It's fine. It's all fine.

Three years. That's how long Lingling Kwong has waited for a man who walked out of her life without a word - leaving her alone to raise their daughter, Sirilak. Calm, graceful, and fiercely devoted to her little girl, Ling has long buried her heart under routine and restraint, convinced that love is no longer meant for her. Enter Orm Kornnaphat - a wildly attractive, sports teacher with honey-amber eyes, a crooked smirk, and a soft spot for a certain clingy six-year-old in her class. Orm never cared for commitments... until Sirilak latched onto her like a koala, and her reserved mother waltzed into her life with dark eyes and a body made of temptation. What begins with innocent schoolyard encounters and stolen glances spirals into something neither of them expected - a slow, burning connection tangled in unspoken fears, inconvenient timing, and a desire too strong to ignore. Orm wants her. All of her. Ling is terrified to want back. But love, like children, doesn't wait for perfect timing.

Lingling Kwong has it all-beauty, success, and elegance. At thirty, she's built Kwong Fine Dine into one of the most prestigious restaurants in the city, yet her heart remains untouched. Despite her wealth, Ling lives with quiet humility, her life as polished and serene as the wine glasses she sets on her tables. Then comes Orm Korn. Loud, reckless, and untamed, the twenty-three-year-old troublemaker bursts into Ling's calm world on the night of her own birthday. With her boyish charm, amber eyes that gleam with mischief, and a laugh that demands attention, Orm is everything Ling isn't-and everything Ling can't seem to resist. What starts as playful banter quickly deepens into stolen glances, lingering touches, and the kind of late-night confessions that blur the line between danger and desire. Ling falls for Orm's raw honesty, believing in the passion she sees beneath the chaos. But Orm carries a secret-one that began as a cruel bet with her friends: make Ling fall, take her riches, and walk away. What Orm never expected was to fall too-deeper and harder than she ever thought possible. When the truth shatters Ling's heart, will Orm prove she's more than the reckless girl who started it all? Or is love too fragile to survive betrayal? A story of temptation, heartbreak, and the kind of love that tests every boundary.

Lingling, the ultra-serious CEO, has her perfectly controlled world turned upside down by Orm, a bubbly coffee shop owner who thinks life's too short for spreadsheets. Orm's charm and teasing instantly get under Lingling's skin. Will Orm's warmth melt Lingling's icy heart or will Lingling stay busy playing hard-to-get?

They were promised to each other as children-two to powerful families, bound by legacy and a vow spoken in jest. Now, years later, Ling is cold, controlled, and successful. Orm is fire, chaos, and everything Ling can't stand. Forced into a marriage neither of them wanted, they're thrown into a war of sharp words, silent stares, and unresolved tension. But under the bitterness, something simmers.

Freshly graduated and hopelessly romantic, Orm Kornnaphat dreams of a life straight out of a fairytale. But when her best friend convinces her to attend a glamorous party, Orm's ordinary world is turned upside down

Lingling Kwong has a lot on her plate as the owner and CEO of one of the biggest lifestyle magazines in the world, which explains why she could be uptight at times. In order to relieve some of the tension she has built up, the new head of accounting named Orm Kornnaphat comes to the rescue, but her ways can be quite... inventive and sexy. ...
