[PREQUEL TO THE SKZ ORBITING HEART SERIES]
The beginning is never neat. It’s messy—blurred edges of late-night practices, half-broken dreams, and the sharp ache of growing up too fast.
This prequel, drops us straight into the fire of the Stray Kids survival show era, when the boys are still trainees clawing toward debut. Every chapter is a collision between hope and fear, friendship and rivalry, loyalty and the gnawing question of who will make it through.
At the center is Hyunjin, restless and golden, who meets Jamie Carter, a foreigner with a camera and her own storm of secrets. Their connection sparks fast, too bright to ignore, but shadows of language barriers, secrecy, and the harsh grind of trainee life begin to press in. Jamie, caught between belonging and isolation, finds in Hyunjin both an anchor and a fracture waiting to happen.

[FIRST SIDE STORY OF THE SKZ ORBITING HEART SERIES]
Bethanie "Beth" Anders has never been good at asking for more. A veteran-turned-paper-pusher at the VA, she spends her days buried in bureaucracy and her nights tiptoeing around a marriage quietly rotting from the inside out. She’s surviving. Until a call shatters everything: her best friend Alex has been assaulted overseas. She's in critical condition. And she needs Beth. Now.
Beth leaves behind the wreckage of her old life with nothing but her daughter, a duffel bag, and a court order. In Korea, she finds not only Alex, but a new orbit—one pulsing with lights, sound, and strangers who don’t know her history. Among them is Seo Changbin: confident, talented, full of warmth, and completely disarmed by the quiet woman who doesn’t recognize his fame or flinch from his gaze.
What begins with silence becomes something else—doodles passed back and forth, confessions whispered in kitchens at midnight. Beth is older. Guarded. Wounded. Changbin should know better. But some people arrive in your life like second chances disguised as strangers.
As Alex fights to heal, Beth must decide if she’s still just surviving—or finally ready to live.

[SECOND SIDE STORY OF THE SKZ ORBITING HEART SERIES]
Elliot Turner wasn’t supposed to be in Korea. He wasn’t supposed to be skipping class, carrying secrets he won’t share, or falling in love with a K-pop idol who knows how to shine for the world—but not how to trust it.
When a chance encounter thrusts Felix into Elliot’s orbit, neither of them is prepared for what follows. One is grieving in silence. The other is living under a spotlight that never turns off. But in the quiet between performances, in stolen moments and soft texts, something begins to bloom.
They’re complete opposites—chaotic and careful, closed off and too soft—but something about the other makes breathing easier.
And even when the past threatens to drown them, they find themselves choosing the same thing:
Each other.Series

[THIRD SIDE STORY OF THE SKZ ORBITING HEART SERIES]
Han Jisung knows how to perform. On stage, he's magnetic. Off it, he's coming apart at the seams.
He wants to submit-but shame wraps itself around the want like barbed wire. He loves Minho-but fear keeps him from reaching out.
When the weight becomes too much to bear, Minho turns to someone he trusts-a professional dominatrix with the skill, precision, and patience to guide them both.
What begins as training becomes something deeper: a process of unlearning shame, embracing vulnerability, and rebuilding trust one breath at a time.
Jisung must confront the parts of himself he's buried for years-the panic, the control, the fear of being too much-and decide if he's brave enough to hand them over to someone who refuses to let go.
Some love is quiet.
Some love is rough.
And some love is the strength it takes to stay.Series

The source? Jeongin, the eager but reckless idol who doesn't yet understand the cost of playing with power he hasn't earned. Raven confronts him with precision, fury, and something even more dangerous: the offer to train him.

But as Raven reclaims her space and reasserts her boundaries, someone else steps into her path-Jungkook. Steady. Familiar. Watching her with eyes that remember everything, including the girl she used to be.
And as old scars reopen and new bonds form, Raven is forced to ask herself a question she's spent years avoiding:
What happens when the person who always holds the leash... finally lets someone in?Series
