Dear Readers,



We've finally reached the end of **Aria and Kael's journey**.



When I started writing this story, I only had an idea about a frightened girl with silver eyes searching for a place where she truly belonged. I never imagined that thousands of readers from around the world would walk beside her every step of the way.



Thank you for every read, every like, every comment, every theory, every correction, and every word of encouragement. Your support helped shape this story into something far better than I could have created alone.

Some of you celebrated with Aria.


Some of you worried for Kael.

Some of you laughed because of Arden.

And some of you even caught details that I missed. Thank you for caring enough to point them out. Your feedback made me a better writer.



I hope Aria's story reminds you that our past does not define our future, and that even after the darkest night, hope can still be found beneath the same sky.



From the bottom of my heart...



Thank you for staying until the final chapter.



This may be the end of Aria's story, but it is not the end of mine.



I hope we'll meet again in my next novel.



With gratitude,




**Best Siallagan**

A little update for everyone reading my story

❤️

First of all... thank you for staying with Kael and Aria’s journey this far. Your support, comments, reactions, and reading lists truly mean a lot to me.



After rereading several recent chapters, I realized the story slowly drifted too far into heavy fantasy lore and away from the emotional core that made this story special in the first place.



At its heart, this story was always meant to be about:
rejection, emotional scars, obsession, regret, and the dangerous connection between two people who were never supposed to fall this hard for each other.



Because of that, I’ll be revising starting from Chapter 42 to make the story tighter, more emotional, and more focused on Kael & Aria’s relationship and character journey.



The main story will stay the same — but some scenes, dialogue, pacing, and lore elements will be refined to create a stronger reading experience moving forward.



Thank you for being patient with me while I improve the story. I truly want to give you the best version of it ❤️
