New Chapter Alert: Chasing Dragons – Chapter 15 is now live on AO3!

📖 Chapter 15: When It Sets In (Daenerys POV)

Hey everyone! I know I’ve been quiet on announcements lately — between summer vacations and work getting hectic, life has been a little full. But I’m back with a fresh chapter drop for Chasing Dragons, and I’m so excited to share this one with you all. 💙

Also, heads up: I’ll be traveling tomorrow (Cowboys vs Eagles in Philly — Go Birds 🦅), so the next chapter won’t be posted until Sunday or Monday of next week. Thank you for sticking with me through the ups and downs — your support truly means the world.

About the Fic:

A modern AU second-chance romance featuring Jon Stark and Daenerys Targaryen — slow-burn, emotionally raw, and full of heart.

This is more than just a love story. It’s about what remains after the fire — the pain, the echoes, the hope. It’s about rebuilding from the ashes, one fractured step at a time.

If you’re drawn to:

– Estranged lovers and the tension of unfinished business

– Co-parenting challenges and old wounds

– Softness wrapped in grief and slow forgiveness

– Small-town whispers and gym-floor revelations

– A six-year-old boy who wants both his parents under one roof

Then Chasing Dragons may just land right in your heart.

⸻

Chapter 15 Summary:

Daenerys battles jealousy and small-town whispers, takes Missandei’s hard truth to heart, and prepares Rhaegar’s favorite dinner for their first real evening together—ending in a pinky promise she vows to keep.

When Jon returns, neat alibis and a trace of perfume spark a quiet confrontation, leaving her torn between new hope and old doubt—and determined to prove she belongs, one steady step at a time.

Sophie Turner talking about working with Kit Harington again for The Dreadful 👹

You know what? It was amazing to work with him again, but I don't think either of us realized what we'd actually signed up for until the day on. And then, I mean, we were genuinely gagging and wretching on set together, cuz he is like my big brother and no one wants to kiss their brother. Well, actually in Game of Thrones, everyone did it, but for me, no, it was not easy, but it was so rewarding to work with him again. Also, as an adult, it was like a very different dynamic between the two of us. And it's going to be a really fun, twisted, interesting gothic horror.

Chapter 12 of Chasing Dragons is now live on AO3! A modern AU second-chance romance starring Jon Stark and Daenerys Targaryen—slow-burn, emotionally intimate, and grounded in quiet heartbreak and the possibility of healing.

This story explores what’s left behind when someone chases their dreams—and what’s still possible when they come home to face the life they abandoned.

If you love: – Estranged lovers finding their way back to one another – A little boy caught in the middle of past mistakes and present longing – Soft, quiet rebuilds through trust, vulnerability, and time – Small-town tension, layered family dynamics, and second chances – Honest parenting moments that tug at your heart

Summary: Years ago, Daenerys left to chase a dream. Jon stayed and became a father alone. Now she’s back—carrying regrets, memories, and a hope she doesn’t dare name. But Jon’s world is no longer hers to enter freely… and neither of them are the same. What remains is a boy who still wants answers, a fire that refuses to die, and two people learning that forgiveness is the bravest thing of all.

Chapter 12 – Moments of Truth It’s supposed to be a proud day—Rhaegar’s presentation, something small and good. But as familiar faces return and harder conversations unfold, Jon is forced to confront the walls he’s built… and the cost of keeping them so high. When his son asks a question that cuts to the heart of everything, Jon finally realizes the past isn’t behind him—it’s sitting right across the room, waiting.

Summary – Chapter 9: Lines on the Field

The soccer field isn’t just a field—not today. Daenerys finally comes face-to-face with the life she left behind, only to find herself caught in a moment she never prepared for. When Rhaegar asks a question neither parent is quite ready to answer, it forces Jon and Dany to confront the truth of where they are… and how far they still have to go. Quiet, tentative, and deeply personal, this chapter is about holding space—for pain, for hope, and maybe even for each other.

Chapter 8 of Chasing Dragons is now live on AO3!

A modern AU Jonerys second-chance romance steeped in grief, honesty, and the slow ache of rebuilding trust.

This is not just about love lost—it’s about what happens when two people sit down after years apart, not to reclaim what once was, but to make sense of what remains. It's about showing up—scars, silence, and all.

– And two hearts learning how to speak again

What follows is a raw, honest reckoning between past pain and present truth, where guarded confessions crack open long-buried wounds. One conversation won’t fix everything, but it might be the beginning of something new—for their son, and maybe, one day, for them.

Chapter 7 of Chasing Dragons is now live on AO3!

A modern AU Jonerys second-chance romance where healing isn’t linear, and forgiveness takes root in the quiet moments—the small cracks in the glass.

This isn’t just a story of love rediscovered. It’s about earning your place back in the lives you left behind. About soft glances, hard truths, and the slow unraveling of frostbitten silence.

If you’ve been waiting for:

– Daenerys finding her voice again in the hometown that remembers too much

– Sisters with knives for words (and hearts full of fire)

– Sidewalk conversations that sting and soothe

– A long-overdue message that changes everything

– And a woman beginning to believe she might deserve a second beginning

Then this chapter is for you.

Summary – Chapter 7: Cracks in the Glass

Daenerys is finding her footing—but every step forward in Winterfell feels like walking a tightrope. From Arya’s biting warning to Jeyne’s quiet gesture, and Sansa’s guarded honesty, the ice around her is starting to crack… just enough to let in the light. But when a message from Jon finally arrives—simple, deliberate, and four years overdue—she realizes tomorrow might be the beginning she’s been aching for.

Chapter 6 of Chasing Dragons is now live on AO3!

A modern AU second-chance Jonerys story about heartbreak, healing, and the small, everyday choices that begin to rebuild what was once broken.

This isn’t a story of sweeping redemption arcs or picture-perfect reunions. It’s about sidelong glances across soccer fields. About quiet conversations in the smoke of old pain. About what happens when the past shows up with golden eyes, floppy ears—and no warning.

If you're drawn to:

– Firehouse calls that change more than just the day

– Puppies as unexpected bridges between broken hearts

– Sideline tension, unspoken memories, and loaded goodbyes

– Co-parenting with the ghost of what could’ve been

– And the aching question: what if it’s not too late?

Then you’ll want to sit with this chapter.

Summary – Chapter 6: The Weight of Things

Jon’s world is steady—until Daenerys suddenly shows up somewhere he can't run. A routine fire call turns into something more when Jon rescues a puppy and unknowingly gives Rhaegar a new best friend. But it’s the sideline reunion—with Daenerys, with the past—that shakes him more than smoke ever could. Between flashbacks, confrontations, and hard conversations, Jon must decide if protecting his heart means keeping the mother of his child out… or finally letting her back in.

Chapter 5 of Chasing Dragons is now live on AO3!

A modern AU Jonerys second-chance romance rooted in ache, accountability, and the kind of healing that only begins once the truth is spoken aloud.

This chapter isn’t about grand gestures. It’s about sweat, silence, and the courage to stand in front of what you broke—and try to rebuild anyway.

As someone who loves both Jonerys and Jonsa, this story is a love letter to emotional complexity, flawed forgiveness, and what it means to earn your place again in a life that moved on without you.

If you're drawn to: – Gym floors and hard truths

– Sisters who speak plainly and fiercely

– The pain of seeing someone else in the space you once held

– Quiet mornings, loaded glances, and soft beginnings

– And a woman learning that redemption means showing up—not just once, but over and over again

Then this chapter may just hit you where it counts.

Summary – Chapter 5: The Weight of Things

Daenerys is back—but returning is only the beginning. As she faces Robb and Jeyne’s honest words, Talisa’s quiet truths, and the ache of seeing Jon with someone else, Dany begins to reckon with the damage she left behind. This chapter is about the quiet work of redemption—about showing up, breaking a sweat, and learning that healing starts with honesty… even when it hurts.

Chapter 4 of Chasing Dragons is now live on AO3! A modern AU second-chance romance featuring Jon Stark and Daenerys Targaryen—achingly quiet, emotionally layered, and rooted in love, loss, and the long road home.

This isn’t about picking up where they left off. It’s about the space between them now—filled with regrets, with routines built around absence, and with the sharp edge of questions left unanswered.

As someone who loves both Jonsa and Jonerys, this story is a slow unraveling of what it means to carry love alongside resentment—and what happens when life no longer lets you ignore either.

If you’re into: – Firefighters carrying more than smoke on their backs – Single dads holding it together one morning at a time – Small-town honesty wrapped in soft threats and harder truths – Playgrounds that echo with what’s unsaid – And men who still dream of silver hair in the rearview mirror

Then this chapter is calling your name.

Summary – Chapter 4: Lines in the Sand Jon’s quiet world of fatherhood, firehouse shifts, and routine begins to tremble when whispers of Daenerys’s return stir old wounds.

A modern AU Jonerys slow-burn filled with heartbreak, quiet resilience, and the fragile art of starting over.

This story isn’t just about lost love—it’s about what happens when a woman dares to return to the place she once fled, and a man who stayed behind holding the pieces. It’s about forgiveness, grief, and the small, stubborn hope that maybe—just maybe—some things aren’t beyond repair.

As a fan of both Jonsa and Jonerys, this story is my love letter to complicated relationships, second chances, and the ache of what could have been.

If you’re into:

– Cafés filled with ghosts and grace

– Co-parents re-learning how to speak kindly

As memories stir and ghosts become faces on a playground, she finds herself face-to-face with the weight of what she left behind. But when confessions are met with quiet grace, and even the fiercest hearts offer a crack of space, she realizes: healing begins not with grand gestures, but with the choice to stay.
