Leonia and William? Yeah, they don't exactly get along.
She thinks he's an arrogant show-off. He thinks she's allergic to fun.
Basically: oil, meet water.
But then life decides to throw in office drama, family meddling, and-oh yeah-marriage papers.
Now these two sworn non-fans are stuck in the ultimate romantic comedy equation:
Enemies (kind of) + Marriage of Convenience (definitely) = Chaos (absolutely).
Expect banter, questionable life choices, and maybe... a happily-ever-after they didn't see coming. π
(PG-13, because we keep it cute, not scandalous.)

Until We Belong
"π°'π ππ πππππ ππ ππππ πππ πππ'ππ ππππππ ππ πππππ" They signed a contract but fate wrote the rest. People make deals. People break rules. And sometimes, people end up signing a marriage contract they definitely did not plan for. One wants a company, the other wants a dream. A year-long arrangement seemed simple enough-benefits all around, zero emotional attachment, and a clearly defined end date. What could possibly go wrong? Turns out, everything. Fake smiles, staged dinners, shared roof... suddenly "pretending" feels a lot less harmless, and "just business" starts to blur in the most inconvenient ways. Add a past that refuses to stay buried-love lost too soon, a heart that learned to armor itself-and a future that can't wait, and you've got chaos wrapped in tailored suits and violin strings. Love, it seems, has a funny way of ignoring contracts. And stubborn hearts? They don't read the fine print. β’β’β’β’β’β’ "ππ¨ π₯π¨π―π π¬ππ¨π«π’ππ¬, π«π’π π‘π?" "ππ¨π π’π§ ππ‘π’π¬ π₯π’ππππ’π¦π."
Twice the Ex, Still the One
Loriana and Nicholas were that couple-jaw-dropping chemistry, inside jokes, power couple energy. Everyone wanted what they had. The weddings? The vacations? The love notes in coffee cups? Perfect. Until the night it all unraveled. At her sister's wedding, Loriana tries to call her husband Nicholas, who's supposedly away on a business trip. No answer. Until a stranger picks up his phone-a girl from the club, sitting on his lap, laughing into the camera, telling Loriana that "he's busy right now." And Nicholas? Slumped, drunk, completely out of it. A week later, he returns. No real explanation. Just a note, a screenshot of that humiliating moment, and divorce papers on the kitchen counter. Loriana left without looking back. But a year later, a family emergency throws them back into the same orbit. Same fire. Same tension. Same old questions. Was it really just a mistake? Can you forgive someone who shattered you? And if love is still there... what the hell are you supposed to do with it? !UPDATES DAILY!!Complete
To Be Understood

Yet as quiet understanding grows between them, so does something neither of them believe in anymore*hope.* A slow-burn historical romance about second chances, quiet strength, and love that blooms not from perfection, but from shared scars
