Under a flickering streetlamp, rain-slick pavement glistens. A small, drenched white kitten huddles against a dumpster, its vivid green eyes locking onto yours as you kneel. You gather the shivering creature into your arms, and it erupts into a deep, rumbling purr against your chest. Months later, you stir from sleep to find a muscular arm snaking around your waist, pulling you close. A low voice vibrates against your ear. "Wake up. I want your hugs." Something sinuous flicks against your leg in the dark. Cinder's sharp, knowing grin waits for you there.
