In a world ruled by legacy, two women are forced into a marriage neither of them wanted... but fate might have other plans.
Orm Kornnaphat is a spoiled heiress - fiery, dramatic, and used to getting her way. She's the rebellious daughter of a powerful food export empire, more interested in stuffed toys and late mornings than boardrooms and responsibilities. When her family forces her into an arranged marriage, she's furious - especially when her bride turns out to be the mysterious stranger who once helped her on a night she can't even remember.
Lingling Kwong is the definition of composed. Cold, calculating, and beautiful, she's the only child of the Kwong business dynasty and a boss feared by everyone - but apparently not including her new wife. For Ling, obedience is survival. She's always done what's expected of her, even if it means marrying a bratty stranger for the sake of business and family pride.
Thrown into a high-profile marriage neither of them asked for, Orm and Lingling become unwilling partners in a game far bigger than themselves. From chaotic mornings to silent car rides, office wars to stuffed toys invading private spaces - they're learning that hatred, annoyance, and sarcasm might just blur into something else when you're stuck in the same home, same office... and the same destiny.
Love isn't part of the plan.
But fate? Fate doesn't care what they planned.

Urge to keep you | Lingorm
Lingling Sirilak Kwong was raised with silence in her veins. She doesn't shout. She doesn't ask. Her hands do the speaking-steady, exact, dangerous in a way that doesn't need to warn you twice. She leads with the kind of power that doesn't seek permission. Her world is sharp-edged and quiet, and she's made peace with being alone in it. Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong lives differently-under fluorescent lights, in rooms that smell like antiseptic and the weight of responsibility. Everything about her is clean, practiced, still. Her voice is soft, but her spine never bends. People depend on her. She lets them. Because she doesn't know what it's like to be chosen instead of needed. They met under bad lighting and worse timing. A parking lot. A crude comment. Four men. And one voice that cut the night open: "She told you to move." It should've ended there. A nod. A thank you. A walk away. But Orm didn't walk. And Lingling didn't let her. Now there's a thread pulled too tight between them. Sheets. Bruises. Breathless silence. A thousand things said with hands instead of mouths. Lingling touches Orm like she's already hers. Orm lets her in like she doesn't know how to say no. It's not love. Not yet. But something hangs in the space they keep trying not to name. It lingers on the tip of the tongue, right where pretending and staying start to blur. --- --- G!P LinglingComplete

She's feared in boardrooms and misunderstood at home. Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong, her wife of 15 years and a former top model, once believed love could survive anything-including Ling's ambition, distance, and silence. Now, they live under the same roof, not as lovers but as two strangers orbiting a shared past-and a 14-year-old daughter, Lemon, who sees everything they're too afraid to say. They're not divorced. Not yet. But the papers are drawn. The beds are cold. And Lemon has learned to call one Mom and the other Mommy, choosing her words carefully like everything else in this fractured family. But when one moment cracks the fragile truce between them-a school event, a memory, a kiss-it threatens to reignite everything they buried: the passion, the hurt, the promises, the silence. This is not a story about falling in love. It's about what happens when love doesn't leave, even when you do.Complete

DISCLAIMER This story is purely fictional. It has no connection to real-life events, individuals, or entities, whether living or deceased. Any similarities are purely coincidental and unintentional. Ling Ling Kwong & Orm Kornnaphat, of course, are lovely girls and not as the characters mentioned in this fanfiction. Remember, this is a fanfiction! Enjoy! **All photos are credited to their respective owners. Prologue The first time Ling met Orm, she was six years old, hiding behind her mother's leg at a bustling café filled with the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee. It was her parents' favorite place, though she never paid much attention to it-until that day. Orm, a little girl in an oversized apron, stood on her tiptoes behind the counter, stacking sugar packets with intense focus. She looked up, locking eyes with Ling, and grinned. "You wanna help?" Orm had asked, holding out a packet. Ling hesitated. She had never been invited to do something so ordinary before. But the warmth in Orm's voice was different from the polished, rehearsed greetings she was used to. From that moment on, Ling and Orm were inseparable. Their differences never seemed to matter. Ling, with her designer dresses and chauffeur-driven rides, and Orm, in her simple clothes, always smelling faintly of coffee beans and warm pastries. They built their own world within the walls of that small café, sharing secrets, dreams, and laughter. But some things were never said out loud. Orm never told Ling that her heart raced whenever Ling smiled at her. Or that she memorized every little habit-the way Ling twirled her straw in iced coffee, or how she tapped her nails against the table when she was deep in thought. And Ling? She was blissfully unaware, believing that nothing between them would ever change. Until the day she fell in love with someone else.Complete
Oh My Ghost! (LingOrm)
Lingling Kwong just wants to graduate, survive her half-time jobs, and not completely lose her mind writing her final thesis. Easier said than done when you're broke, burnt out, and living off instant noodles in a creaky old apartment your parents are barely managing to pay for back in Hong Kong. Her thesis topic? The mysterious death of Orm Kornnaphat-a beautiful, kind-hearted woman whose case was left unsolved and buried in silence. Ling expected late-night research, maybe some spooky vibes at worst. What she didn't expect? Seeing Orm. Like, actually seeing her. Blonde hair. Soft smile. Floating three inches off the ground. Oh, and haunting her apartment. As Ling digs deeper into the past, Orm sticks around-clingy, chaotic, and way too attractive for someone who's technically dead. From flickering lights to flying cutlery to accidental ghost cuddles, the line between fear and affection starts to blur. But falling for a ghost comes with more than just spectral kisses and phantom puns. If Ling doesn't solve the mystery of Orm's death, the girl she's falling for might be trapped forever. Fun. Scary. Chaotic. One's alive. One's dead. And somehow, they might just be each other's unfinished business.Complete
