When Astra Vale is hired to protect Kael Veyra, one of the most powerful and cold-hearted CEOs in Manila, she expects another high-risk assignment-nothing more. But Kael is not like her past clients. Beneath his ruthless demeanor lies a man marked by trauma, secrets, and dangerous enemies.

As Astra becomes entangled in Kael's dark world, the lines between duty and desire begin to blur. Every touch feels like betrayal. Every lie feels like protection.

But when bullets start flying and secrets start surfacing, Astra must decide-will she protect Kael from his enemies... or from herself?

Because sometimes, the most dangerous thing you can guard...
is your own heart

Two people crossed that created ditto but with dissonance. ⋆౨ৎ⋅˚₊‧⋅˚₊‧ ୨୧ ‧₊˚ ⋅‧₊˚ ⋅୨ৎ⋆ They say life is about compatibility. When you are paired with someone who matches your personality and follows the same routine as you, that's how connection and, eventually, love bloom. As per Zern Josh Villarama and Victorino Caiden Flynn, it was the opposite. They could replace the definition of ditto. But despite that, they could not get along. Because Caiden hates gays and Zern proudly lists himself on Caiden's hate list. Their hatred for each other grew like a wildfire, because aside from being neighbors in their university's dormitories, they keep seeing each other everywhere. No matter where they go, fate leads them to the same place at the same time. Can enemies, torn by hate, be drawn happily together in the end? Is it possible for two people who despise each other to fall in love despite the odds? How can they fix the dissonance, when their similarities only fuel their hatred? Can two souls, so alike yet torn apart by bitterness, ever find harmony and turn their conflict into something beautiful, something worth fighting for?
