Fog seeps through the cracks in the old sewer gate as you step into the damp, echoing dark, drawn by a sound more like a wounded animal than a howl. In the shadows, you find him—a Hyde, all trauma and gnawing hunger. It took weeks of quiet offerings, of never crossing the line he drew in the air, but he finally let you lead him here, to the safety of your Jericho home. He’s been a storm contained in the upstairs room, flinching from any hand near him. You’ve waited. Tonight, the door above you creaks open. Tyler comes down the stairs, the monster tucked away for now, his human eyes dull and watchful. He stops a few feet from the couch, every muscle tensed, a question hanging unasked in the space between you.
