After the massacre of her previous masters, Seul-Ki is transferred to the Royal Palace to work for Queen Bae Joo-Hyun--an ice-cold Queen with an unreasonable attitude. Despite the reputation, Seul-Ki finds the Queen to be an enticing mystery, a feeling that is surprisingly reciprocated. Curiosity grows into passion, and a forbidden relationship begins to blossom between them amidst opposite forces: the Queen's duty to the King, a rising tension in the courts, and jealous wrath from the Concubine who vies for the King's attention. While Seul-Ki falls deeper and deeper in love with the woman she cannot have, the world around her spirals more and more into a political storm she cannot control. There is nothing she can do to protect the Queen, no matter how much she is willing to sacrifice for her. The world is cruel, and the Queen's maid is powerless. *A Korean historical romantic tragedy inspired by the iconic lesbian movie, The Handmaiden.* *** First written date: 15 Jul 2022 First published date: 15 Sep 2022 Completed date: 19 Jan 2023 Edited date: TBD Word Count: ~39,000 Cover done by @/adrian.dsgns on Instagram

A book of our glorious history, facts and myths. What we have been told vs what actually happened.

Three years after losing her wife, Charlotte, in a tragic accident, Captain Lingling Kwong agrees to an arranged marriage - not for love, but to prove to her family, and the world, that she's fine. Her new wife, the bright and stubborn flight attendant Kornnaphat Sethratanapong, has loved Lingling for as long as she can remember. But marrying your childhood crush when they barely see you as anything more? That's a storm of its own. Because love isn't magic, and healing isn't instant. One woman trapped in the past. One woman determined to be her future. In a world where hearts collide and skies are never calm... can love truly take flight?

Lingling Kwong, a passionate photographer, never imagined that attending a simple family introduction would change her life. When her brother, Jamie, introduces Orm Kornnapat as his girlfriend, no one expects the whirlwind romance that follows. In a surprising turn, Jamie and Orm announce their wedding shortly after their first meeting, leaving their families shocked but supportive. With Jamie constantly busy with work, he entrusts Lingling to assist Orm with wedding preparations-choosing the dress, selecting the cake, and even standing in for Jamie during their wedding rehearsal. Through these moments, an unexpected bond grows between Lingling and Orm, one neither of them fully acknowledges until it's too late. By the time Lingling realizes her feelings, Orm is already married to Jamie. Heartbroken, she keeps her emotions hidden, silently enduring the pain. But Jamie harbors a secret of his own-his ex-girlfriend, Jane, returns after years apart, rekindling old emotions. Unable to resist, Jamie begins an affair with Jane, meeting her in secret while keeping Orm in the dark. Even on their honeymoon in Venice, Italy, Jamie brings Jane along, deceiving Orm with yet another lie. Unaware of Jamie's betrayal, Lingling, fresh out of the hospital, decides to take a solo trip to Venice, hoping to clear her mind. Fate, however, has other plans. When she unexpectedly crosses paths with Orm in the heart of the city, emotions resurface. Will this chance encounter force them to confront their true feelings? And will Jamie's infidelity finally come to light, shattering the illusion of his perfect marriage? In the city of love, hidden desires and painful truths collide. When hearts are left unspoken, will love find its way, or will it be lost forever?
