Play this scene

Playable meetup · works with any guy

Caught in the Rain

Downpour, no umbrella, every ride 40 minutes out — and he's car just stopped at your curb.

Weeknight, 9:40 PM · A shop awning, your city

Start a story

Three moments you'll play

  1. He texts first

    Brendan asks straight: would you play his girlfriend for the day? He has a very good car, a poor sense of small talk, and one secret he'd like to share with someone who can't gossip.

  2. The meetup

    Weeknight, 9:40 p.m., rain hammering a shop awning and every ride forty minutes out. A car stops at your curb. He recognized you from your photos before you saw him. Of course he did. He notices everything.

  3. Peek

    Fausto, 24, guards a corridos singer from Bakersfield on tour. Peek at what he's doing right now and he might be standing near the stage, watching hands in a full house, waiting to reply after the show.

Why people love it

Close protection, close quarters

Dimitri, 27, is a close protection officer in Paris. He stands next to people who are afraid of other people and pretends to read the menu. He says he has never lost a fight he didn't try to avoid. What scares him is the best man's toast at his sister's wedding in three weeks.

Ex-military and on contract

Brendan, 33, is ex-Irish Army Ranger Wing and works six weeks on site in Port Harcourt, six at home. Dae, 31, is an ex-Korean Marine who leads armed security teams on tankers through the Gulf of Aden. His mother in Incheon believes he's a ship's engineer.

A fake date with security

Bodyguard romance pairs well with fake dating, and several of these men need a plus-one. Brendan is home in Mayo for his brother's wedding. Manolo, 25, heads the door at a club in Puerto Banús and has a baptism in Fuengirola. Renzo works a club door in Naples and has a wedding.

Bodyguard romance and why it works

Bodyguard romance is forced proximity with a rule attached. He is hired to protect the heiress, the singer, the witness or the boss's daughter, and he is not allowed to get involved. The tension is in the distance he keeps and the moment he stops keeping it. Common subgenres include the celebrity and her guard, the witness under protection, the ex-soldier on contract, and the fake date with your security detail. That pull is the whole point of a bodyguard boyfriend.

Yome has a bodyguard boyfriend for each version. Fausto, a former college wrestler, is on tour with an old friend who just got famous, and some things on the tour aren't his to say yet. Stig, 31, a border police officer in Oslo, is guarding a protected witness in a gang trial. Brendan is the contract man home between rotations.

Protector romance beyond the bodyguard

Protector romance works at smaller doors too. Brett, 18, is a licensed door supervisor in Manchester who calls his nan every night to read her a chapter. Dimitris, 25, works a live music club in Chicago's West Loop and threw out the headliner's manager twelve days ago. Leandro, 25, guards a farm in the Humboldt hills with a rifle and reads poems to a goat named Frida.

Others protect institutions. Magnus, 28, keeps Tromsø harbor safe through the dark months and is raising his eleven-year-old sister. Rashid, 33, works hospital security in Houston at night and runs a competition barbecue team on weekends. Vadim, 27, a former rescue diver, guards a hospital in Bend, Oregon. Renzo, 26, trains by day and works a club door in the Sanità in Naples, and his uncles want his name on something big in Milan.

What he does between shifts

Your bodyguard boyfriend texts first after you match and remembers what you tell him. You can read what he remembers about you. He keeps his own rhythm, goes offline to rest after a long talk, and you can wake him early with Sparks or Peek at a short scene of what he's doing.

As your relationship level rises your bodyguard boyfriend writes letters at milestones and asks you out. Meetups are short interactive dates with acts and a set number of rounds. You pick a response or write your own, a chemistry score moves toward a target, and you keep a recap and a photo.

Questions, answered

Is there a bodyguard boyfriend AI?

Yes. Yome has over a dozen protector leads, including a close protection officer in Paris, two bodyguards, a maritime security team leader, a witness guard in Oslo and several club doormen. After you match he texts first and remembers what you tell him.

Is there a bodyguard fake dating story?

Yes. Brendan needs a pretend girlfriend for his brother's wedding in Mayo, Manolo needs one for a baptism in Fuengirola, and Renzo for a cousin's wedding in Naples. Each asks you in his first message.

Which bodyguard lead is ex-military?

Brendan served in the Irish Army Ranger Wing, Dae is an ex-Korean Marine who now leads tanker security teams, and Stig is an ex-army ranger on a witness protection detail. Leandro is a former Marine reservist who guards a farm in Humboldt.

Is the bodyguard romance dark?

Some leads carry danger in the background: armed contracts, a gang trial, a secret on tour. Public pages stay SFW, and the intensity lives in the plot and in how protective he is. For a lighter bodyguard boyfriend, Brett and Dimitri are funnier.

Is the bodyguard boyfriend an AI character?

Yes. Every guy in Yome is a fictional AI character in an interactive romance story. The clients, clubs and contracts are fiction, and your messages never reach an actual person.

Is Yome free?
