Author's Note.


This story is dedicated to my cat, who has always kept me going even when I felt I couldn’t.


This book contains talk of mental health, self harm, and drug addiction. It also has a lot of smut ;) for you kinky people. This book is in no way trying to shame people who struggle with mental health or addiction, but rather it is to bring awareness and light to the situation. If you are struggling, please reach out to someone. If you know someone who is struggling, please reach out to them or someone else so they can receive help. I, myself, have struggled with mental health and self harm for the longest time. I will put hotline numbers down below for people who need them.

Remember that you are loved by someone, even if it feels you aren’t. You are beautiful and special in your own way. I love you.

-Liz
