Please DON'T READ this chapter yet. I will update this 2nd week of September!
Good news! My hands have healed now and I'm catching up on writing my missed chapters. My apologies for all the delays. I will replace this chapter with the real one soon, don't worry, and upload a new one for the next day. I really apologize once again.
In the meantime, please enjoy the continuation of the story below titled "The King's Beloved". This is the revised version I am planning to submit for paperback publication. Hopefully, I get a chance someday.
