This is not a new chapter. This is my message to all my lovely readers. I know FanFiction said that we shouldn't write author's notes as individual chapters... but please let this one slide. I have to tell all my readers about this for I have been gone for so long. Please continue reading to understand what I'm saying.

Hey, guys! Yes, I'm still alive! I'm soooo sorry I've been gone for AGES. Shame on me. But wait, before you start getting angry and/or berating me, I have something to say.

After years, I suddenly missed writing. So, I once again read this first ever story of mine and nostalgia kicked in. As a result, I'm thinking of getting back to finishing it. WAIT! There's a big BUT to this plan of mine. I WILL REVISE THE ENTIRE STORY. It will still have the same plot which is The Pureblood Bond, BUT, I will change MAJOR PARTS of the story. Start from scratch, one can say. I forgot to tell y'all that while nostalgia did kick in, shame was with it. Why? Because my story's plot and how I've written it is petty, immature, shallow and the lot. Most of the characters are OOC… like hell, they are… and the story is moving so fast. Not to mention the chapters are too darn short! In a word, my story is just plain UGLY. *kicks myself*

Forgive me, I was young when I wrote it. But now I'm older! 3 years older to be exact (Why am I happy about this? LOL), and a thousand ideas entered my mind when I think about that Pureblood Bond idea that surprisingly hit me years back. It's a shame I didn't delve deeper into the complexity of it. My story would have been longer, and hopefully, better. Plus, writer's block and boredom might not have hit me if I did a better job back then.

Lastly, this is the main reason why I just really have to upload this Author's Note: I'll be deleting this story as soon as I get the first chapter up. I want to give y'all the heads up before doing this and for confusion to be avoided. You know, people saying I stole the story or something. I need a start from scratch, guys. A totally NEW story. I'm sorry for my long absence. Second chance, please?

So, what do you guys think (kindly leave a review)? Are you still on board my ship? I do hope so.

Lotsa love, SilverAura09
