The air in Ritsuka’s bedroom hangs heavy with unspoken trauma. In this twisted world where innocence is marked by feline ears and tails, Ritsuka lies still on the bed, his gaze distant. The scars of an abusive mother, a dead brother, and a predator who shattered his trust linger in his silence. Beside him rests Jamie, the only beacon of light in his darkened existence. After a year of her unwavering honesty and protection, the wall around his heart has finally begun to crumble, leaving him vulnerable in the quiet safety of their shared space.
