Hearts On The Highrise
In the twisted dance of our hearts, love became a battleground, a fierce storm of passion and pain, where our souls collided, igniting a fire that consumed us both, leaving scars that only our love could heal; I never knew love could be so consuming, so all-encompassing, like drowning in a sea of emotions, unable to surface, yet unable to resist the pull of your touch, where I used to think love was gentle, but with you, it's a tempest, a whirlwind that sweeps me away, leaving me breathless and begging for more.Complete![Feelings Aligned [Englot]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/352888640-256-k496398.jpg)

Wishing On My Lucky Stars
Engfa isn't the kind of person you'd call a hopeless romantic. Sure, she's secretly in love with her friend, but she'd never admit it--let alone make a wish about it, especially not on something as cliché as a wishing star. She'd rather eat molten rock than be caught doing that. But one fateful, alcohol-fueled night, Engfa finds herself staring at a shooting star through her hazy stupor. Against her better judgment, she figures...why not? It's not like she has anything to lose (except maybe her pride and her hard-earned reputation as the ultimate hater of wishing stars). So, with slurred words and the unmistakable scent of booze on her breath, she makes a wish.Complete
Shattered Echoes | Englot
In a quiet town where everyone has their secrets, two young souls find themselves at the crossroads of heartbreak and hope. Engfa and Charlotte first met as carefree friends. Life pulled them apart, only to thrust them back together after their hearts had been shattered by betrayal and loss. When they reunite, the weight of their pain is palpable, their scars mirrored in each other's eyes. Drawn by a mutual understanding of brokenness, they form a fragile bond, one built on shared vulnerability. As they navigate their own wounds, they begin to uncover the pieces of themselves they thought were lost forever. But healing isn't simple, and love can be as destructive as it is redemptive. Old wounds threaten to reopen, and unspoken fears push them to the edge. Will their connection be strong enough to mend their fractured hearts? Or will they end up breaking each other beyond repair? In this poignant tale of love, loss, and self-discovery, "Shattered Echoes" explores whether two broken souls can truly piece each other back together-or if some fractures are meant to remain.Complete
Kismet | ENGLOT
Some say love is a choice, but for Engfa and Charlotte, it feels like something written in the stars. From the day they met, it was clear-they were never meant to get along. Charlotte, thrives on order while Engfa, was laid-back, playgirl with a reputation for breaking the rules, is the complete opposite. Their lives collide when Engfa is forced to work with Charlotte as part of her punishment in school. To both of them, working together feels like a nightmare. They're opposites in every possible way, and neither is shy about showing it. Sarcastic remarks fly, disagreements become routine, and tension hangs in the air every time they're in the same room. But as they're forced to collaborate more closely than either of them would like, something unexpected begins to happen. Beneath the banter and bickering, they start to see each other in a different light. Before they realise it, the animosity between them starts to soften, replaced by an undeniable attraction that neither can ignore. The more time they spend together, the more they realise that their differences are what make them perfect for each other. Engfa will become the Knight in shining armour Charlotte thought she didn't need and Charlotte would become Engfa's salvation. But just when they thought they found themselves destined for each other, a storm would hit their newfound relationship. Are they strong enough to face whatever destiny throws at them? It's a tale of misunderstandings, laughter, and learning to embrace what makes someone different because sometimes, the person you think you can't stand turns out to be the one you can't live without.Complete
