I'm not going to lie, I cried a bit reading Come Morning Light, it was so good!! Can't wait for the epilogue. (WinWin really decided to swept the reader off their feet, he literally said I'll do it myself, I guess that's why he's the play writer lol)
I forgot to mention the character development too, the reader saying she deserves more than being a mistress, finally someone who knows their worth and would/could finally move on. Finally a reader that finally moves on from a toxic relationship/environment and doesn't wait for their s/o to comeback.
Also kinda wondering if Hendery resents the queen (mother) and his wife for what they did, because if they didn't force him to marry the princess/ meddle with his relationship, he would've been happier? (If that makes sense?)
Anyways, I hope you take care of yourself and drink lots of water!! 💕 Sorry for how long this is!!
ahhhhhh, anon, your ask just made my day!!!! come morning light is actually one of my favourite works, it's my second baby tbh. i think i worked on it for about 3-4 months??
💕WINWIN💕 was always meant to be the subtle, second lead. i made it just subtle enough because while i was writing it, i wasn't sure if the reader was going to end up with hendery or winwin, but in the end, it was much better for her to get out of that relationship and to be with someone who can truly treasure her.
but to address your question, i don't think it'd be realistic for hendery to not resent the queen mother and maria theresa for what they did, but at the same time, i think that hendery knew from the start that he's in a very different position than any other person – being the king and all – and that while he might have resented not only his mother and his wife, he might have resented his position a little too. even if the queen mother didn't meddle with his relationship, somewhere down the line, hendery would have to choose between his kingdom and his love life, and because he's the king, he'll have no choice but to always pick his kingdom in the end. hope this answered your question!! <3
i'll try my best to put out the epilogue sometime around the month of may or june (to celebrate one year since i've posted come morning light!), but i also don't wanna disappoint anyone either kfjskfjskf
you stay safe and drink lots of water too!! 💛
