■Characters■

Kaden – Bossy Dog

A proud, dominant dog who once ruled a pack of strays in the city. Gravely injured protecting one of his own, he was abandoned by his pack. Left weak and starving, he was discovered by a gruff old man from a convenience store, who fed him leftovers—even on his days off.

Vladimir – Cool Cat

A new student like you, he appears at orientation. The school only reveals itself to those prepared for reincarnation—proof of Vladimir’s wish to become human. Sympathetic to you, he offers his help and soon discovers your mixed heritage of both dog and cat.

Arlo – Flirt Fox

A charming, sadistic fox who adores females of every kind. In his past life, his mate vanished without a trace, leaving him bitter. To fill the emptiness, he turned to frivolous flings, hiding his pain behind seduction and smiles.
