Shadows of Her Guard (LingOrm)
Ling Kwong has built her empire on discipline, loyalty, and protection. As the CEO of the most elite bodyguard company in the country, she has shielded politicians, celebrities, and business moguls. But nothing could prepare her for the quiet, devastating beauty of Orm Kornnaphat-the fiancée of the Prime Minister.
Orm should have lived a fairytale. Instead, she's trapped in a nightmare. Bound to a powerful man not by love but by her parents' debt, her days are filled with bruises hidden beneath silk dresses and dreams stripped from her hands. Painting-her only escape-has been forbidden. Her voice, silenced. Her spirit, caged.
When Ling is hired to protect Orm, she expects another high-profile assignment. What she finds instead is a woman with haunted eyes and a tender heart. Slowly, painfully, Ling uncovers the truth: Orm is being broken by the very man who claims to love her.
But between hushed confessions, lingering touches, and the safety of Ling's unwavering presence, something begins to bloom-something forbidden, reckless, and undeniable.
As the walls close in, Ling must choose: follow the rules and guard Orm from a distance... or risk everything-her career, her company, her life-to save the woman she's falling for.
In a world where power is everything, love might just be the most dangerous rebellion of all.
