Foreword and Content Warning
Hi there!
If you’ve picked this up, chances are you already know a little bit about Dragon and the Kitsune—or you’re just curious about the characters and the mess they’ve gotten themselves into.
This short story collection is where I let myself breathe a bit. These are the scenes, backstories, and “what ifs” that didn’t make it into the main novel, either because they slowed the pace or would’ve turned into long-winded flashbacks. Some are soft, some are heavy, and some are just for fun. If it’s an alternate universe (AU), it’ll be clearly marked. Everything else can be considered canon to the main story.
Think of this as a behind-the-scenes lounge for the characters—a space where they get to stretch out, be vulnerable, or even a little chaotic without the pressure of the main plot hanging over them.
Thanks for being here. I hope you enjoy these moments as much as I loved writing them.
