Auroraaa

"This princess's new bodyguard is the ultimate tsundere. What to do?!" 

Didn't he say I am annoying? Why is he looking at me with heart eyes? 

He said he will never be into me... What's with the fleeting touches then? 

Wait, what?! Did he just ask for a kiss with that professional face on? 

Alas, was my one-sided attraction wasn't that one sided after all? 

...

As the princess of Monteluna, all Amara wants is to live an idle life. She even negotiates her chance to study abroad, away from the royal family. But two years in, life throws a curveball when the King declares: 

"From now on, you will have a new personal bodyguard!" 

Rafael Varder. A brooding, mysterious man with piercing green eyes. From their first encounter, he saves her. By the second, they talk and he vanishes after making her heart flutter. The third time they meet, there’s a twist: Rafael isn’t just some handsome stranger she could crush on at will—he’s her new personal bodyguard aka her shackle. 

Feeling blindsided, Amara decides to take control by laying down the ground rules: no unnecessary meddling, no constant hovering, and definitely no controlling her life. 

But Rafael? He breaks every single one of her rules while shoving his unbearably gorgeous face in her sight 24X7. The lines get blurred as the princess and her bodyguard entangle in a game of love, hate & desires. 

But when Amara realizes that Rafael comes with secrets that will destroy any possibility of them, would she still give in to the temptation? Will Rafael be able to protect her—not just from danger, but from the demons of his own identity?

The Princess's Secret Bodyguard

But Rafael's gaze didn't soften. He looked at her with that same, unyielding intensity that both infuriated and intrigued her. "Though I'll remind you," he added, his voice low, "that my duty remains. And if there's anything that could endanger you—even indirectly—I won't hesitate to act on it."

Rafael's lips curved in the faintest of smirks. "Believe me, Your Highness," he said, his voice barely above a murmur, "I wouldn't have it any other way."

That fleeting smirk sent a warmth tickling down her spine and those suggestive words reminded her of the time he had called her 'kitten' on the cruise. Following behind was a sharp flashback of last night when he had walked in on her while she was sitting half naked on the bed. The trail of thoughts were disturbing and she snapped herself out of it.
