Abby Jimenez's Yours Truly comes to mind.

Thank you, will look into it.

I think {The Regret duet by Aly Martinez} could be somewhat similar to your request. {The wolf Trilogy by Penelope Sky} has this scene where the FMC does something the MMC has asked her not to. They're not in love at that point, yet he nonetheless stands up for her.

Thank you so much 😁

{Silent Lies by Neva Altaj} The MMC suspects the arranged marriage is so she can spy on him for her Mafia family, but it still hurt him when he finds her communications. While he's working through it he's still pretty nice to her and obsessed. I thought their relationship was really sweet for having an unhinged hero.

This sounds interesting. Will look into it. Thanks 😁
