˜"*°• The Forest and the Firefly •°*"˜//𝒲𝒾𝓁𝓁𝒾𝒶𝓂 𝐸𝓈𝓉
William has always lived in the spotlight-but behind the camera flashes and screaming crowds, he feels like a firefly: small, fleeting, and always chased. Est is the opposite. He's the forest-steady, grounded, a quiet kind of strong. After giving up his dreams of competitive swimming, he's learned to find peace in simplicity, running a small guesthouse in the mountains of Chiang Mai. When William stumbles into Est's world-half-lost, half-searching-they're both caught off guard by what they find in each other. What begins as wary coexistence slowly unravels into something neither expected: comfort, tension, healing, and the kind of love that lingers long after the moment ends. Together, they learn that love doesn't have to be rushed or fleeting-it can be steady, lasting, and true. Because even fireflies need a place to rest. And even forests need a little light. A tender, atmospheric romance about coming home to yourself-and to someone who sees you, truly.Complete

Guilty As Sin - WilliamEst
"You sentenced me to die," William whispers, "and now you come crawling back like I'm the only one who ever made you feel alive." Est Supha Sangaworawong was built to be clean. Polished. A prosecutor with a flawless record and no room for mistakes, or monsters. William Jakrapatr was supposed to be just that. One trial. One headline. One death sentence. Case closed. Until the dreams started. Not of the crime. Not of the courtroom. Just him. The convict with chained hands and a smile that feels like a secret. Now Est is back at the prison. Sitting. Watching. Wanting. What started as obsession twists into something darker, desire wrapped in guilt, lust heavy with betrayal.
