"I didn't ask for this marriage. I definitely didn't ask to fall for you."
Colonel Xiao Zhan has three rules: Follow orders. Protect his men. Never get attached.
Dr. Wang Yibo has one goal: Survive his family's impossible expectations.
When their families force them into an arranged marriage, both expect a cold, distant arrangement. What they get instead is a dangerous game of secrets, lies, and a conspiracy that could destroy them both.
Someone is hiding something deadly.Medical supplies disappearing from Yibo's hospital.Classified leaks in Xiao Zhan's unit.Bodies piling up with no explanations.
As they investigate, the line between duty and desire blurs. Stolen glances become lingering touches. Professional distance becomes late-night conversations. And suddenly, this marriage of convenience is feeling dangerously real.
But when family betrayals come to light and the truth about why they were really forced together is revealed, trust shatters. Can they rebuild what was broken?
And when an unexpected pregnancy turns their world upside down, will Xiao Zhan's dangerous military life and Yibo's demanding career tear them apart-or finally bring them together?

They were her sentinels, her saviors, the reason that she refuses to let her past consume her. 𝐆𝐈𝐔𝐋𝐈𝐀 𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐎, a young girl who's never known stability. Raised by a reckless, unstable mother, she spent her childhood caught between drug runs and police raids, ruining her right for a normal childhood. One night when her mother goes missing, Giulia's whole life changes... again. Will being under the guardianship of her new older brothers give her a chance at normalcy in her life or will they cause even more mess than before? Healing isn't easy and trust doesn't come free. ☆ ☆ ☆ As I lied there in the hospital bed with a pounding headache, practically suffocating me while barely conscious, I heard that familiar, raspy, deep, sleep deprived voice that I've recently come to find comfort in. "Nessuno oserà toccarti di nuovo senza perdere le mani, amore," they whispered. (No one will dare touch you again without losing their hands, love.) I felt two hands hold my face with a soft kiss on my forehead. Their rough and large hands a contrast to their gentleness. The comforter over me shuffled as the familiar person brought them up to my chin and tucked me in. "Riposati ora sei al sicuro, bambina," they murmured, stroking my hair. Before I knew it, simply the presence of them reassured me as I felt myself drift off again into a deep sleep. (Rest now, you're safe, baby). ☆ ☆ ☆ 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄 (noun): a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.

After her mother's unexpected passing, Gemma is sent to live with a group of strange men who don't seem overly fond of her being there. Their secrets, their strange rules and behaviour make Gemma want to run; to hide, to go back in time to when everything felt safe again. But life doesn't always play the way's expected, and Gemma's life of before can only stay as that: in the past.
