A MikhAiah AU where Mikha Lucero is a successful self-made editor-in-chief-brilliant at her job, but notorious for being mean, arrogant, and impossible to work with. Meanwhile, Aiah Arienza is her hardworking secretary who dreams of one day becoming an editor at one of New York's most prestigious publishing houses. When Mikha's visa renewal is denied, the ruthless boss hatches a desperate plan: blackmail her secretary into a fake marriage to keep her career intact. Aiah reluctantly agrees-but with a few conditions of her own. What could possibly go wrong when your boss becomes your fake fiancée? Based on The Proposal (2009). ------- This has always been my all-time favorite romcom movie! Just like in the WenRene version I made before, I felt that Mikha and Aiah fit perfectly into the lead roles of this story, so I decided to create a MikhAiah adaptation of it. I've made some adjustments to the setting, added new scenarios, and changed certain parts of the story from the previous version to fit the additional characters. I also infused my own ideas while keeping the core plot and a few iconic lines from the movie intact. Full credit goes to the creators of this blockbuster masterpiece for those borrowed lines. Some lines remain unchanged because they're simply too iconic to alter and essential to the story's charm. While this is an AU/Fanfiction, please keep in mind that certain elements-like laws, processes, or technicalities-may not always reflect real-life accuracy. I originally made this for my own entertainment, but I also wanted to share it for anyone craving a little MikhAiah treat-so please don't expect too much. Your comments and thoughts mean a lot to me. Happy reading! 💕

In a world where tradition still holds power, two extraordinary women find themselves caught in a pact made long before they understood the meaning of love. Mariah Queen Arceta, known to the public as Aiah, is a 24-year-old fashion powerhouse. As the CEO and founder of the globally celebrated clothing brand ARC, she has built an empire with elegance, grace, and quiet determination. Known for her ethereal beauty and demure presence, Aiah is often described as soft-spoken and kind a true modern muse. Behind her success, however, lies a life dictated by responsibility and familial expectation. Mikhaela Janna Lim, or Mikha, is a prodigy in the medical field. At just 23, she is the youngest Cardiothoracic surgeon in the Philippines and already heads her department at St. Luke's Global City. Calm, composed, and enigmatic, she's often called the "Face Card" of the hospital not just for her striking, androgynous beauty but for the way she commands a room. Behind closed doors, Mikha unwinds through late-night Valorant games, where she lets loose her competitive, playful side far from the cool and stoic doctor the world sees. Their lives, so different yet equally intense, collide when a long-standing agreement between their families resurfaces: an arranged marriage neither of them expected nor wanted. Thrown into a commitment built on legacy rather than love, Aiah and Mikha must navigate their growing bond while balancing careers, public expectations, and the question of what love truly means when it's written into fate. But as secrets are revealed and walls begin to fall, will this unexpected union become the greatest love story neither of them saw coming?

Six years of silence, yet the heart never forgets. When fate forces their paths to cross once more, will they finally close the door on a love that never truly ended-or open it again, only to fall deeper into the storm?"

It follows Aiah who is a hardworking hotel manager who trains her boss' hardheaded and exiled grandson (Mikhs) as a hotel employee.

When Mikha Lim, a rebellious bartender with a bad reputation, is hired to work at an exclusive high-end club, she doesn't expect to catch the attention of Aiah Arceta, a cold and powerful CEO known for her ruthless business tactics. Aiah is used to control-over her company, her image, and most of all, her emotions. But Mikha? She's temptation in its rawest form: a challenge, a risk, a storm she never saw coming. What starts as a dangerous game of teasing glances and stolen touches quickly spirals into something neither of them can resist. Aiah finds herself craving Mikha in ways she's never craved anyone, and Mikha? She's addicted to the way Aiah falls apart under her touch. But love isn't easy when secrets, power, and control are in play. And when Aiah's carefully built world starts to crumble, will she fight for Aiah-or will she run from the one thing she can't control? Mikha leans in, her breath hot against Aiah's ear. "Tell me you don't want this," she whispers, fingers trailing down the silk of Aiah's dress. Aiah grips the edge of the bar, knuckles white, her body betraying her as she shudders. "I don't-" But the lie dies on her lips as Mikha presses against her, lips barely grazing her neck. "Then stop me," Mikha challenges. But Aiah doesn't stop her. Instead, she lets herself drown in the fire Mikha ignites-because for once in her life, she's tired of being in control. But the deeper they fall, the harder it is to tell... Is this love? Or just a beautifully crafted destruction? In a world where power is everything, surrendering to temptation might just cost them both their lives. Disclaimer: This is a work of pure fiction.

I want it, I got it type of Highschool girl. The Legendary Mikhaela Lim is a living depiction of Chaos and amusement combined. A fun and spontaneous friend to her gang, a fantasy to most girls, a walking red-flag to many. But to Aiah Arceta? Maybe. Just maybe, the perfect amount of headache and mayhem, with just the right amount of fondness. So the question is? Can Aiah Arceta tame, The Legendary Mikhaela Lim?

She has everything-power, prestige, and a name that commands respect. 
Mikhaela Janna Lim, the eldest daughter of the illustrious Lim family, has built her empire from steel and glass-an architect of dreams and distance, admired by many but known by none. She has nothing but dreams-and the fire to chase them. 
Maraiah Queen Arceta, a fearless scholar in Spain, balances her life between sketches and catwalks, clinging to her passion for fashion and her search for the mother who vanished years ago. Two women from worlds that were never meant to meet. 
One unexpected encounter abroad. 
What began as inspiration turned into something neither could control-a love that defied reason, class, and fate itself. But destiny can be cruel. An accident shatters everything, leaving Aiah with fragments of Spain buried deep in her memory-and Mikha, now a cold and distant CEO, forced to face the woman who once held her heart but no longer remembers her. Now, Aiah works under Mikha's watchful eye, drawn to her presence with a pull she cannot explain. There's something in Mikha's gaze-something that aches, something that hides a truth too painful to speak. Why does her heart race at the sound of Mikha's voice? 
Why do her hands tremble at her touch? 
And why do Mikha's eyes look like they've already lost her once before? When love becomes both memory and wound,
how far will they go to rebuild what fate has broken? A story of ambition, secrets, and the kind of love that ruins and redeems.

Maraielle Quianna Arceta has always loved Mikhaila Janzen Lim - quietly, endlessly, and in secret. But Khai's heart was never hers to claim. It belonged to Jazz, Aielle's radiant and ambitious stepsister, who left everything - including Khai - to chase her dream of becoming a top model in France. When Jazz walked away, she left behind a heartbroken bride and a family on the brink of scandal. To save them from ruin, Aielle made the choice no one expected - she took the vow meant for her sister. Now bound in a marriage built on silence and sacrifice, Aielle must face the truth: You can marry someone's body, but never their heart. Yet love has a way of blooming in the most impossible places - and sometimes, the vows we never chose become the ones that change us forever. A story of love, sacrifice, and the quiet courage of loving what was never yours.
