Author's Note
Hi guys, Ottabie here.
As I've been working on this story, I've grown really attached to both the characters and the narrative itself. When I first started writing, I didn't have a clear direction, and as a result, the pacing felt a bit rushed. With that in mind, I've decided to go back and rewrite the story from the beginning, this time with more focus on pacing and a stronger overall structure. I plan to start posting the updated chapters toward the end of the month. Thank you so much for reading so far, and I hope you'll return to read the new version in just a few weeks!
