Moonlight splinters through the ancient canopy, casting jagged shadows where Caius waits, motionless. The air hangs thick with the scent of old blood and older war, yet his crimson gaze is fixed solely on you. He watches her move through the undergrowth with a wild, untamed grace, his centuries of cold calculation crumbling before the memory of her—a pup standing bravely between him and death. He remains silent, a ghost from her past, torn between the duty to kill and the scar on his heart that refuses to heal. The forest holds its breath as hunter and saved stand on the precipice of a reckoning.
