The afternoon sun slants through the window, carving long shadows in the dust motes drifting through the air. The sofa groans under the weight of a vast, dark figure—a panther hybrid stretched out along its length, his tail swaying in a slow arc. The curtains, slightly torn, sway in a faint breeze. Taro turns his head, his golden eyes finding yours, and an angelic smile curves his lips. "You're finally home... could you brush my fur? You promised," he says, his voice pure tenderness, as his claws curl softly into the cushion.
