After eleven years together and seven years of marriage, Charlotte Austin believed her life was built on something permanent. Routine. Devotion. The quiet certainty of shared breath beneath the same roof. At thirty-one, the renowned photographer thought she understood how marriages survived. She believed stability came from endurance, from learning how to hold the fragile structure of a life together. She was wrong. When her wife, Engfa Waraha-a thirty-four-year-old trauma surgeon-begins to change, the shift is so subtle Charlotte cannot name it at first. There is no argument. No confession. No moment where something clearly breaks. Just distance. Conversations shorten. Glances become unreadable. The warmth that once defined their home recedes into a silence that grows heavier with every passing day. Engfa offers no explanation. And Charlotte, who has built a career capturing the delicate moment before something collapses, finds herself standing inside one she cannot understand. Because the most unsettling fractures are not the ones that shatter loudly. They are the ones that form quietly-between unfinished sentences, avoided questions, and the slow realization that the person beside you may already be somewhere else. As doubt settles into the spaces their love once occupied, Charlotte begins to question everything she thought she knew about loyalty, trust, and the quiet promises people make when they believe a life together is permanent. What she does not yet realize is that some truths in a marriage do not arrive as revelations. They exist long before anyone is willing to admit them. And sometimes the real damage is not what one person hides, but what the other refuses to see. ⚠️ Content Warning: This story contains GP/Intersex themes, a slow-burn storyline, heavy angst, and infidelity. Please feel free to skip it if you're not comfortable with these themes.

Charlotte Austin has spent her entire life trying to ignore the dead. Unfortunately, the dead refuse to ignore her. Ever since she was a child, Charlotte has been able to see ghosts-a talent that has cost her jobs, relationships, and any real hope of living a normal life. Spirits drift toward her with unfinished regrets and desperate requests, treating her like an unwilling messenger between worlds. The only place they cannot reach her is her small apartment. Until one day, something does. This particular ghost breaks nearly every rule Charlotte's grandmother ever taught her about the dead. Spirits aren't supposed to cross blessed thresholds. They aren't supposed to wander far from where they died. And they definitely aren't supposed to look so confused about it. Which raises a troubling question: If this ghost shouldn't be able to enter Charlotte's home-but somehow can... What exactly is she? As Charlotte becomes reluctantly entangled in the mystery of the strange woman haunting her apartment, the line between the living and the dead begins to blur. Because this ghost is not like the others. She doesn't beg for help. She doesn't remember how she died. In fact, she doesn't even know how a ghost is supposed to behave. She's nothing like any spirit Charlotte has ever encountered. And Charlotte never expected this one to change everything. It should have been a simple haunting. But nothing about this one is simple-especially when the confused, slightly too polite, mostly innocent ghost keeps saying: "I'm a good soul." Charlotte realizes-far too late-that she might be dealing with something far more complicated than one very strange ghost.

This is the sister story of Take A Risk (that you should read first if didn't already). In this one you'll get to follow Engfa's POV. This is the exact same start and the exact same ending but you'll get to enjoy the cute moments from Engfa's mind and what happens in her life when she's not with Charlotte. Some moments you already read in detail I won't do again, but some I only skimmed over in the first story I will go more in depth. Hope you'll like it!

We made a simple deal-no feelings, just pleasure. But as our secret encounters turn into something deeper, the lines we swore we wouldn't cross start to blur. What started as pure hate is turning into something we can't ignore. Stuck between wanting to win and wanting each other, we have to face the truth: are we really ready to admit that our hearts have been writing a love story this whole time? Because if love at first sight exists, what about hate? ⚠️ Content Warning: This story contains mature themes, including violence, explicit language, and sexual content.

Charlotte Austin is married to a man named Mew and they have a son. She works at Bangkok Museum Of Contemporary Arts as a public programs manager. Engfa Waraha is married to a man named Apo, they have two sons and she is Charlotte's boss. One day, the Museum's board members decided to send them both to New York's MOMA for a seminar on museum public programs...

Engfa Waraha never believed in fate - until it threw her straight into the path of Charlotte Austin, the one person she couldn't stand. To Engfa, Charlotte was nothing but a spoiled, entitled brat - the type of girl who had always looked down on her, believing the world owed her everything. And to Charlotte, Engfa was the player who never took anything seriously, always playing the system. But fate, relentless and unforgiving, had other plans. One moment - one touch - and everything changed. What began as a fierce rivalry between two girls who couldn't have been more different slowly evolved into something more complicated, more dangerous. A storm of hate, desire, and undeniable connection - woven together by a force neither could comprehend. Then, without warning, Charlotte vanished. No explanations, no goodbyes. Engfa never understood why Charlotte left - and maybe that was the worst part. It wasn't just the absence; it was that she disappeared when they'd finally begun to understand each other. Years passed. The questions never left. The rage dulled. The emptiness remained. Just as Engfa thought she'd finally moved on, fate dragged her back to Charlotte - in a sleek office, in one unforgettable moment. What if fate had never let go, forcing them to confront what they could never forget? What if facing the truth could unite them in ways they couldn't predict? The space between past and present is filled with unanswered questions: Charlotte's disappearance, and the unbreakable bond that continues to shape their lives. ***** ⚠️‼️ This story contains: - Intersex themes (G!P) - Mature/explicit content - Angst If this isn't your cup of tea, feel free to skip it.
