    Summary

    Rumi is a confident personal trainer at the Iron Temple, a luxury gym for the rich and famous. Flirtatious, skilled, and seemingly untouchable, she uses charm as armor, keeping people at a distance while hiding insecurities shaped by grief, family rejection, and her identity as an intersex woman.

    Mira, a sharp-tongued mechanic and the black sheep of a rich family, comes to the gym looking for strength, but carries years of resentment and a deep hunger to be accepted for who she is.

    Zoey, a famous singer, joins for stamina training while quietly coping with the emotional aftermath of an abusive relationship and the pressure of a public life that leaves little room for vulnerability.

    Brought together by Rumi’s training, the three women form a tentative connection built on tension, attraction, and mutual understanding. As professional boundaries blur and personal walls begin to crack, shared workouts turn into shared moments, anger released, truths spoken, and a spontaneous dinner that marks the beginning of something fragile but hopeful.

    Each of them is scared. Each of them is drawn in anyway

    And none of them are ready to admit just how much this connection might change everything

    Summary

    Their night was going to be simple:

    Fresh bowl of popcorn, Kdrama, and swiping on a dating app they've just downloaded.

    Why not? Bars and sticky and crowded. Zoey and Rumi are tired of paying for drinks every weekend.

    What's the worst that can happen?

    Well, they don't expect Kang Mira to popup on their sea of profiles. Not one bit.

    Especially when they match.

    Can't be too good to be true, can it?

    Summary

    Wordlessly, the woman handed Rumi a glass of water and she gratefully took a sip before the water was snatched away and set down on a little side table next to a couch and a couple of chairs. Then she was pushed towards a chair, "Sit for me, pretty girl."

    A thousand articles had been written about Rumi's looks. About how beautiful she was, how hot she was, about the looks she'd inherited from her mother.

    And it was a 'pretty girl' from this woman that lodged itself in her chest and refused to leave.

     

    Or, Rumi gets addicted to both the pretty stripper and the girl who works the front.

    Summary

    Zoey thinks, lying back against the paper covering of the cold examination table, while trying to ignore the sensation of inorganic equipment being lodged in places they had no god-given right to be, that this is, inarguably, the least sexy way to get knocked up.

    Zoey isn’t really sure how she ended up here, in all honesty.

    Well, she is. She can recount the steps chronologically. How Mira and Rumi had looked so god-damned defeated. How her big, stupid mouth had opened and volunteered, initially, and then had said yes to all of their concerned interrogations as to whether or not she was sure, like, really sure, one hundred per cent sure?

    And now she’s said yes so many times and so adamantly that it isn’t as though she can suddenly back track and say, surprise! I am actually no longer willing to carry the baby you have been so desperately trying for because I think it would be a really super-duper bad idea! Sorry for getting your hopes up!

     

    Zoey agrees to be a surrogate for a married Rumira. Things get messy because she's already in love with them, has known this for years, but she might be falling in love with the baby, too
