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

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).
