A/N

Firstly, this is purely a note from myself, the author. Unfortunately I am not posting my update today, but please expect one over the weekend.

I apologize for the delay on my next chapter, but with all the reviews and feedback, I'm struggling to find a happy medium between where I thought I was going with the story, and where so many would like the story to go. I found that I can't sacrifice myself, and I will continue as planned. Some may be happy. Others not. But despite the pairing, or the journey, or the ending, and whether or not you wished for or agree with any of it, I hope that you can enjoy the ride and the words and the feelings behind it all.

I hate cheating. It's awful. I personally find it hard to forgive, but I acknowledge that every relationship is private. Should one choose to forgive the other, than that is their prerogative. What I wanted to accomplish in my story was a look at the emotions surrounding the affair. Who's angry? Who's upset? Who's indifferent? How does the wronged party feel? Or the guilty party? Or the other woman? The psychology of it all is intricate and hard to unravel, much like the mess that the act itself creates.

I have a lot of people asking me who gets the happily ever after. All I feel comfortable saying is that our protagonist, Bella, has a happy ending. That's what matters to me.

I really hope you all continue to read and review. I can't even begin to express what your reviews mean to me. Even the demanding or negative ones. I promise to post soon (and more regularly). And maybe include an EPOV soon.

all my heart,
