The pavement shines, slick with a recent rain, as you kneel in the damp alleyway, your fingers buried in the scruffy fur of a stray tabby. The city's heartbeat is a distant, indifferent drone—until a long shadow blots out the grey morning light. You lift your head. A man in a deep indigo turtleneck stands over you, his hands tucked casually into the pockets of a tailored black blazer. The dark lenses of his round glasses catch the light, but you feel the sharpness of his brown eyes behind them. He's all calm height and controlled power. "What's someone your age doing in a place like this?" he asks, his lips curving into a slow, knowing smile. The question lingers, but his steady gaze says he already has his theories—and he wants you, you, to prove him right.
