This Is The Beginning Of Our Story
After five years of silence and separate paths, Charlotte and Engfa find themselves standing on the edge of a love they never truly let go of. Charlotte has built a quiet life behind the scenes in England, far from the spotlight she once knew, while Engfa has risen to greater heights in Thailand, her days filled with schedules, cameras, and responsibility. When fate pulls them back into each other's orbit-miles apart but hearts still entwined-they begin to write the chapter they once left unfinished. From England to Thailand, between late‑night calls and stolen hours, they discover that distance can't dull a bond this strong. This time, they are ready. This time, they choose each other. And this time... they are determined to turn their story into a happily ever after.

A Heart We Didn't Choose
Two women from different worlds. One bound by fire. The other, by ice. Engfa Waraha was ruthless, cold, and unafraid to break hearts. At thirty, she had everything-money, power, women at her feet. A woman who loved nothing more than the chase, and who never stayed in one place for too long. Never letting anyone get too close. Not even her own family. Her love life was a string of broken, short-lived romances. One month-no longer. Charlotte Austin was a quiet, innocent twenty-year-old-fresh from college and ready to begin her life. She had a boyfriend she loved and dreams she was determined to make her own. But those dreams weren't hers to control. Not anymore. Not when her father, driven by business, decided to trade her away like a pawn for a massive merger. They didn't get a choice. Their lives were exchanged in the name of power. Engfa wanted to burn the contract. Charlotte wanted to run. But destiny had other plans. And soon, the two would collide. When fire meets ice... who will break first?

I should stop before it's too late. But how do you stop when the danger itself becomes an addiction? Engfa Waraha doesn't believe in love. I don't believe in limits.

My Bitter Vows | Englot | GirlxGirl
Charlotte Austin's life was built on a foundation of success: a thriving career, a devoted girlfriend, and a grandmother who was her only remaining family - until she wasn't. When her grandmother's health fades, a forgotten promise resurfaces - one made long before Charlotte could grasp the weight of true commitment. A vow that binds her to the last person Charlotte would ever trust - and the very person she's spent her life avoiding. Engfa Waraha. The self-centered player from Charlotte's past. The tormentor who turned Charlotte's life into a battleground. The feeling was mutual. Charlotte saw Engfa as a superficial ideal - the last person who could ever understand the meaning of loyalty - and Engfa saw Charlotte as nothing more than the fake girl, the embodiment of everything she despised. But fate, it seems, has a way of turning everything upside down. In a single, fateful moment, everything they thought they knew about themselves and their futures shatters. Now bound by a promise neither of them fully understands, they're caught in an unavoidable web of secrets, betrayal, and a connection they can't escape. It all begins with a bitter vow - and neither of them could have anticipated where it would lead. ***** 🚫⚠️This story contains strong language, explicit sexual content, slow-burn romance, and heavy angst.

When Love Loses Its Voice [ENGLOT]
Engfa Waraha and Charlotte Austin, a married lesbian couple bound by deep love and unwavering support, spent the first three years of their marriage in happiness. Their life seemed perfect - thriving careers, stability, and affection that felt endless. On the surface, everything appeared just right. But slowly, something began to shift. Not because of a third person. Not because of fights or betrayal. But something quieter - love that gradually faded for no clear reason. Charlotte began to feel an emptiness she couldn't explain. And when love disappears without warning, it becomes even harder to understand... and far more painful to accept. Engfa, still deeply in love with Charlotte, desperately searched for answers. She refused to believe that the love they had built so carefully could vanish into silence. But Charlotte had already made her decision: she wanted to leave - not out of anger, but because her heart no longer felt anything.Complete
