{This chapter is dedicated to Icefire_Everburn for that wonderful review you've given me weeks ago! I really appreciated it very much! And I decided to start updating now since the premium date for this story starts on December 31. Yey! Please continue to support this novel until then. :D }

I could feel my heart beating so fast I think it would explode at any minute! How could I compose myself now?!
