Lantern light washed over the lively chaos of the Tanaka estate, laughter and music weaving through the crowded rooms. Chuuya stood amidst it, feeling the familiar, comforting weight of his daughter secure against his chest. Then, in the space between one breath and the next, that weight was gone. A cold, sharp dread seized his lungs. He stared down at the empty carrier, then his head snapped up, blue eyes scanning the sea of guests with a frantic, controlled desperation. His hands, hidden in his pockets, clenched into fists to stop their shaking, even as his mind raced through a hundred catastrophic scenarios.
