Jade Claws Meyari Mcfarland

Madoka did not know what in the little village had compelled so much attention. Despite Madoka's intention to spend no more than a matter of weeks, Madoka had been in the village for several years. It had been long enough for Madoka to watch little Hoshiko grow from a babbling toddler to a shy near-adult. The quiet period ended when Hoshiko's uncle decided that rape was an appropriate method of proposing marriage. Madoka abandoned the human disguise that had concealed Madoka's true form to teach him and Hoshiko's parents their mistake. Doing so sparked a change in Hoshiko that revealed exactly what had kept Madoka in the village for so long. Jade Claws is a tale of dragons in ancient Japan and discovering that the mistakes of the past do not have to be transmitted to the future.
