My Cute Bodyguard

Yongyut Termtuo-better known as Boat-is the sole heir to one of Bangkok's most formidable conglomerates. Born into a kind of luxury without edges, he grew up as the sort of young man who is accustomed to getting whatever he wants-through money, power, or sheer force of will. He is known for his brooding temper, his volatility, and the way he keeps people at a careful distance. The arrogance around him is so sharp it makes everyone nearby move as if they're stepping across broken glass.

five personal bodyguards have resigned. Every one of them eventually surrendered to Boat's coldness and cruelty. His secretary, Punn, has run out of solutions and is seconds away from raising the white flag.

On the other side of that world is Pasakorn Sanrattana-Oat-a man shaped by an entirely different life. He comes from a modest background and was raised by his mother alone after his father, a military general, was killed in the line of duty. Oat followed in his father's footsteps, joining the special forces. But when his mother's health began to fail, he chose early retirement and returned to Bangkok to care for the only family he had left.

Fate brings their paths together when Tape Worrachai, Oat's senior in the military, offers him a job as personal bodyguard to a young businessman-stubborn, dangerous-without ever mentioning the name. Pressed by financial reality but unwilling to be far from his mother, Oat accepts.

Their first meeting is immediate friction. Boat decides at once that Oat is unfit for the role. He looks too relaxed. His smile is too sweet. And his face... far too disarmingly handsome-almost cute. Not at all the kind of intimidating, hard-edged bodyguard Boat usually hires.

And yet, for reasons Boat himself can't quite explain, he doesn't fire him.

Boat treats him like an enemy-testing him, playing with him, provoking him, picking at minor mistakes, even staging situations for no other reason than to see how Oat will react.
