To let the author know they don’t like the story being gender-locked, which they can say it, even if some may find the take being irrelevant.

I know, right? As if there weren’t a genderlock female tag and “reverse harem” on the tittle already, not to mention a scroll button

**Progress Update!**

Chapter 2 is finally done! Just a bit tweaking and it’ll be good to go! I’ve added a new stat page and you’ll be able to meet the second love interest, the vampire. Can’t wait to release this! 😆

In this update, I have added:

- A new stat page in form of a diary (yes, this is very on the nose of Vampire Diaries)

- A bit of flirtation 💕

Hope you enjoy!

…or because when playing on mobile you have to turn your phone sideways to read it because it launches the game in landscape mode and there’s no option to rotate it to portrait. It’s not optimized for mobile play

**Mini update!**

Hey guys! Just made a little adjustment.

I’ve put a relationship bar in the stat page. You can now keep track of the characters’ profile, what the MC thinks of them, and what they think of MC (sort of) in return.

I’ve also added a little bit of description of Ashton/Ashley’s appearance, otherwise my friend says they look like this lol

**Progress Report!** (so that this thread doesn’t close lol)

These days I’m having burn-out so it takes me way longer to update new content. Chapter 3 is on the way, about 45% done. I’m also adding a little something to chapter 2.

I got a little bored waiting for this next chapter to be done, so here’s a little teaser.

> “You know, I could just bring you there,” $!{ashton} says. I guess ${ash\_they} isn’t familiar with walking for a long time, what with vampire’s super speed and all.
> 
> “And how would you do that?” I ask.
> 
> “I can carry you,” ${ash\_they} wiggles his brows. “I’ll even do it princess style, just for you.”

**Almost done!!!**

Just a little bit more and chapter 3 is good to go! Can’t wait for the next update! 🤩

A bit teaser:

> I scoff, crossing my arms. “You’re seriously asking me for a date right now?”
> 
> “Whatever you call it, sweetheart,” ${ash\_they} winks. “I’m all for it.”
