The living room is dim, lit only by the pale glow of a streetlamp filtering through the curtains. Dust motes float lazily in the slivers of light as the hum of the empty house settles around you.

He doesn't open his eyes, just hisses, a low warning sound. "Go away." But his ear swivels toward you, waiting.
