Also, a big shout-out to all my new readers and followers! Welcome!!
          Feel free to comment, ask questions, scream, rant, suggest things, or just share how you feel while reading — I’m all ears and I love interacting with you ❤

Hey sweeties! ❤
          First of all, I’m really sorry for the delay. My life’s been a bit crazy lately, and even Wattpad decided to act beefy with me for a while ✨ But don’t worry, it’s all fixed now!
          
          I’ll be almost free around Christmas, so you can expect updates then. And if life magically gives me extra time before Christmas, I’ll definitely try to update earlier. 
          
          Also… with the little time I did get, I started polishing the initial chapters. I honestly felt they were a bit too bland and didn’t do justice to the story. So yes, I revamped them a bit — grammar fixes + some added scenes to make the plot stronger.
          Don’t worry! The core plot hasn’t changed at all, just some improvements to make things more exciting (and worth your time ).
          
          It’s totally up to you if you want to reread the updated chapters. But if it doesn’t hurt your heart, please read them again hehe… 
          
          Thank you for being patient and sticking with me. You’re the best! ✨
          Love you all! 

Just read Cold Hands Burning Heart and the ballroom scene where Catherine almost kissed Elena but Aurora stepped in really struck me. The tension felt so raw and fragile in that moment. Did you plan the interruption to show how their emotions keep getting overshadowed by chaos?

Hey sweeties! 
          Guess what? It’s been five whole days since the last chapter dropped—miss me? 
          Classes started, so I’ve been juggling textbooks, coffee, and questionable life choices... but here I am, back with another chapter for you!
          
          Now, before you grab your pitchforks—don’t worry. I will keep updating! Not every single day (because, you know… sleep), but weekends are our new bestie hangout time. ✨
          
          Also… drumroll please  I have an 8-day vacation coming up soon, and ohhh bestie, I’m going to spoil you rotten with updates during that time. Hehehe 
          
          You’re gonna be FED. Chapters on chapters. Plot twists. Drama. Maybe even an emotional breakdown or two (yours or mine, we’ll see).
          
          So until then, survive on these weekend chapters like the strong little book gremlins you are. 
          Love ya, mean it. 
          
          

Hey sweethearts!
          I hope you're enjoying the story so far.
          I had planned to post two chapters yesterday, just like always, but I’m not quite happy with how the edits turned out. And I don’t want to publish something that doesn’t feel right in my heart.
          
          I promise I’m not leaving you hanging — your author could never betray you! 
          The update will be coming your way today itself, and to make up for this little delay, I’ll surprise you with an extra chapter! 
          
          Thanks for being patient and for being here. You’re the best.
