Author's Note:

Good evening, people. Well, it's evening around here. But hello, wherever you are. This is a new story, as you can see. Let me just warn you about some things:

1. This story involves mature and tragic themes. I am not going to deny that this involves rape. So if you are uncomfortable about that, feel free not to read.

2. Again, as I've mentioned in my first story, I like to build my characters. So I encourage you to be incredibly patient with me. This is gonna be a hard one to write since it involves psychological themes. Also, Hermione is definitely out-of-character here. Some others as well. It enjoy twisting the story and the characters, so please have an open mind about it.

3. Apologies for future grammatical errors. English is not my first language; but I try. Really. I do.

4. Feel free to leave reviews. Nasty or not, I welcome it. It helps me know if I'm on the right track or if I'm losing touch of what the story is. So please, you—my readers—are my second eye. I'd highly appreciate your comments.

5. I am eternally grateful for your patience and support. I wouldn't have any confidence in writing this if it weren't for you. So thank you so much.

So, if you decide to continue. Skip to the next page. Thank you, again.
