Thankyou for saving my life. 
          ❤️

I miss you in this place, hun 

I’ve been quiet for a long time, and it’s taken me a while to find the strength to write this.
          
          The truth is, I’ve been dealing with health issues that completely drained me — physically and mentally. There were days when just existing took all the energy I had. Writing, creating, thinking clearly… it all became impossible, no matter how badly I wanted it.
          
          This wasn’t a pause I chose. It was something my body forced on me. And accepting that was harder than I can explain.
          
          I’m sorry for disappearing without answers. I’m sorry for the silence. Please know I never stopped caring, never stopped loving my stories, and never stopped thinking about the people waiting for them. I just had to focus on surviving and healing.
          
          Thank you for your patience, your kindness, and your understanding. It truly means everything to me ❤️

2025 was heavy.
          Heavier than I was prepared for.
          I lost people I never thought I’d lose —
          some to circumstances I couldn’t change, some to distance, silence, and truths that hurt more than I expected.
          
          I learned that grief doesn’t always come with goodbyes. Sometimes it just… settles in.
          My health forced me to slow down.
          To listen to my body when I didn’t want to.
          To sit with fear, uncertainty, and exhaustion instead of running past them.
          There were days where surviving was the only goal.
          
          I carried a lot quietly this year.
          Smiled when I was tired.
          Showed up when I had nothing left to give.
          And kept going, even when parts of me felt worn down.
          
          And to the ones who stayed —
          who reached for me when I was pulling away,
          who checked in, sat with me, and didn’t ask me to be okay —
          thank you.
          
          You mattered more than you know.
          I’m still here.
          Not unchanged.
          Not unscarred.
          But still standing.
          
          2025 stripped me of illusions and taught me what truly matters — who stays, what deserves my energy, and how important it is to choose myself without guilt.
          
          I’m stepping into the next year softer, more honest, and holding onto a fragile but real hope that healing continues and better days are ahead. 

Hi everyone ❤️
          I wanted to share something important with you.
          
          I’ve been trying to upload my stories on Inkitt for a while now, but the platform keeps glitching.
          Some of my edited scenes disappear, entire paragraphs get removed after saving, and it’s becoming really difficult to update properly.
          
          On top of that, many of my readers and followers told me they don’t receive any notifications from Inkitt — no updates, no comments, nothing. And honestly… I really miss the comment section and interacting with all of you the way we used to.
          
          Because of all this, I’ve decided to return to Wattpad and give it another try, even though Wattpad also has its own glitches sometimes.
          
          “The Priestess” will stay here on this profile as it is — untouched.
          But the newly rewritten and improved version will be updated on my other Wattpad account:
          
           @SakuleeOriginal26
          
          If you’d like to continue reading the updated version, please follow me there.
          Your support means more than you know. Thank you for being patient with me through all the chaos of platforms and rewrites — and for caring about my stories the way you do.
          
          I hope to see you soon on my other account.
          With love,
          A.

Wattpad doesn't want me to share my Inkitt link, so I'll tell you my name so you all can add me. 
          SakuLee26. Add me.
          
          Love you. I'll wait for you there. Let's continue our journey.❤️❤️❤️

 New Chapter — New Home 
          
          After a lot of thought (and a few upload battles ), I’ve officially opened my Inkitt account!
          
          Wattpad has made it increasingly difficult to upload and manage stories properly — from formatting issues to endless glitches — and it started to take away the joy of sharing my work. Writing should feel free, not frustrating.
          
          So, I decided to move my stories to a place that feels more stable and creative.
          
          What’s coming to Inkitt:
          
          •Drowning+Dive Into You (both Rewritten)
          
          •The Priestess (Rewritten and new chapters will continue there!)
          
          •Oxytocin 
          
          If you’ve been reading and growing with these characters — from heartbreak to healing, from darkness to light — thank you for being part of their journey. 
          This move is just the next step in giving them (and you) a better reading experience.
          
          I’ll share the Inkitt link soon, so you can follow and keep reading where we left off.
          
          Thank you for always supporting me — your messages, reactions, and love mean more than you know. 

Every time I read your words, I feel this quiet ache — the good kind, the one that reminds me why I write. You’ve all given Oxytocin more meaning than I could have imagined. Thank you for letting it touch you, for waiting, for believing in these characters.
          I carry your love with me into every new chapter. Truly, thank you. 
          
          ❤️❤️❤️ I LOVE YOU ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much, love. ahh, im so excited and can't wait to read it ♥️

@ shali_hope  thank you boo ❤️. It was aparantly a joke. A joke to that person but not to me. Pretending to love my books and complimenting my writing without even reading them, as a good friend whom I trusted, is on another scale of pain...I feel betrayed and dumb.
          
          Always happy to have u in my life❤️
