author's note.
ah yes— i finally made my lil diluc x reader trilogy one shot into a book. this will be a relatively short book as i want to keep writing / have motivation to write (because longer books tend to stress me out a bit)
this will more or less follow the route of the original one shots (excluding the final ending where the two talk it out) & so if you haven't read them, feel free to (in stars align)
part one : https://www.wattpad.com/1034478455?
part two (ending one) : https://www.wattpad.com/1085457228?
part three (ending two) : https://www.wattpad.com/1110410570?
i will try not to use the original writing from there as this book will be my attempt at a new (ish) writing style w more imagery, heavy symbolism, and maturer topics
that said, my original one shots were inspired greatly by kate chopin's the awakening and so if you've already read that, woo :) i hope i can do that story justice with my mediocre writing
in any case, i hope you enjoy this book <3 presenting !! WAX WINGS
