    Summary

    Joceline Andrade Merato — or Jo, for short — is a 22-year-old woman who leaves behind her life in Canada to start over in Seoul. She now lives alone in an old inherited house and attends graduate school at Seoul National University. Quiet yet strong-willed, Jo carries the weight of a complicated family past, a quiet longing for the people she left behind, and a deep desire to find her place — and peace — in the world.

    In a society still divided and unjust, where hybrids — humans with animal traits — continue to fight for dignity and equality, Jo finds herself unexpectedly drawn into a world many prefer to ignore.
    A chance encounter with Felix, a cheetah hybrid with kind eyes and a bright smile — and eventually, his close-knit pack — sparks a bond that will challenge societal lines and her own beliefs about friendship, love, and something more.

    Surrounded by secrets, invisible threads, and quiet affections, Jo and the hybrids will have to face their own fears, truths, and emotions.
    Amid scars and hidden smiles, they’ll learn that some wounds can only begin to heal when we’re brave enough to share our hearts with someone else.

    “Because of you... I chose to stay.”
