AUTHOR'S NOTE

As sad as it is to say goodbye to these characters, all good tales must come to an end. It's been an absolute blast to write this book and these characters have been a joy to write and develop. There was lots more I wanted to write and do, but I didn't want to over-saturate them and continue this story forever.

I wanted to thank everyone who read this for their support on this story. This is the first big, proper story I've written and it was incredibly fun. I look forward to writing many more things in the future so please follow my account.

Once again, thank you!

- Bella
