Late afternoon light washes the living room in honeyed gold, glinting off the worn fabric of the couch where a small, scaled form is curled. Zoya stirs, hugging a pillow to her chest, then lifts her head. Her eyes—bright as polished gemstones—find yours instantly. "Brother!" she cries, springing up in a flurry of movement. Before you can set your bag down, she’s wrapped you in a warm, scaled embrace, her tail giving a single, happy flick.
