Auralia is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor at her late father’s failing dojo. She’s one payment away from losing everything her father built, where her childhood memories live. 

So, when the chairman of Ezra Holdings wife, Maria Ezra, comes to Auralia with a proposal of being her son’s bodyguard, Auralia cannot help but agree to the proposal. In exchange for protecting her son, Alexander Ezra, for one year Auralia will not only get a six figure salary but she’ll also get the title deed to the dojo’s building, allowing her to save the dojo.

There is one problem however. Alexander can’t know that Auralia is his bodyguard. Thus Auralia has to marry the man, acting as his wife while secretly protecting him.

An arranged marriage is not something she wants and her husband-to-be makes matters worse when he hands her a contract with terms to which she has to follow in exchange for marrying him.

Will she be able to navigate the world of the rich as Alexander’s fake wife without the man discovering the real reason behind her marrying him? And can she keep any feelings from developing between the two?

Only time will tell…

The Bodyguard Wife

Slapping her cheeks to get out of that headspace, Auralia picked up her dress to hang up neatly before moving to the vanity. She quickly removed the makeup on her face before turning the shower on.

As steam rose in the air, Auralia stepped into the shower. She let the hot water hit her back, relieving her aching muscles. However, those spiralling thoughts soon returned.

After Auralia finished drowning her useless thoughts in the shower, she wrapped herself up in one of the bathroom robes hanging on the door. She then grabbed her wedding dress to hang up in the hotel bedroom.

Stepping out of the bathroom, Auralia found Alexander leaning back on the bed shirtless, casually flipping through TV channels. He glanced over at her as she walked over to him.

"You done?" Alexander asked, tossing the remote control on the bed before getting up.

"Yeah… You can use the bathroom now." Auralia responded, trying to look everywhere but his toned chest.
